Why XRP is down 1.4% in the last hour
Analysis
XRP slipped about 1.4% over the past hour as traders reacted to a bearish technical setup highlighted by U.Today, which reported an hourly “death cross” alongside a 31% jump in trading volume—often consistent with short-term selling pressure. Separately, U.Today’s coverage of Ripple’s February XRP escrow release mapping may have reinforced near-term supply/flow sensitivity, adding to downside bias despite the longer-term tone of RippleX’s comments on using AI to strengthen XRPL security.
