Why XRP is down 3.0% in the last hour
Analysis
XRP fell about 3% over the past hour as traders likely took profits after a strong run-up tied to broader market volatility, with Decrypt noting XRP’s recent outsized move alongside a Bitcoin-driven short squeeze. Despite supportive narratives around Ripple expanding into the private credit market (U.Today) and reports of heavy XRP activity/flows (U.Today), the immediate move looks more like a short-term pullback following the earlier surge than a fresh negative catalyst.
