Why XRP is down 1.3% in the last hour
Analysis
XRP slipped ~1.3% over the past hour as traders reacted to reports that a Bitget hacker moved 54M XRP, raising concerns about fresh sell-side pressure hitting the market (CryptoNews). The drop was likely amplified by derivatives positioning: U.Today reported a sharp liquidation imbalance skewed against longs during a broader selloff, which can accelerate short-term downside when long positions are forced out.
