Why XRP is down 3.2% today
Analysis
XRP fell 3.2% over the past 24 hours as traders appeared to fade bullish positioning signals in derivatives rather than chase them in spot, despite U.Today reporting βextreme bullish demandβ in XRP options on Coinbase. Sentiment may also have been tempered after a Ripple community figure publicly dismissed circulating XRP rumors, which can reduce near-term hype-driven buying (U.Today).
