Why XRP is down 1.5% in the last hour
Analysis
XRP slipped about 1.5% over the past hour as traders appeared to take profits after recent momentum, with CryptoPotato noting XRP is coming off a strong 30% August surge and entering a βloadedβ month. Despite supportive medium-term signals like continued ETF inflows (CoinDesk) and growing institutional futures activity with CME overtaking Binance (CoinGape, confidence: 65%), the immediate move looked more like a short-term pullback than a shift in the broader narrative.
