XRP Price Leads Altcoin Recovery, Surges Above $1.36 Amid Sharp Reversal

Key Insights:

• XRP price delivered a 18% intraday surge from $1.13 to $1.54 on extreme oversold conditions and spot buying.
• XRP ETF inflows reached $1.21 billion total, showing institutional support despite falling futures open interest.
• The technical structure of Ripple coin holds key long-term EMAs; next moves depend on holding $1.40 or breaking $1.60–$1.73 resistance.

XRP price has posted one of the best one-day results in months. The Ripple coin shot as high as 26% to intraday highs of $1.54, after which it dipped back to $1.51-$1.53 across the key trading platforms.

The sharp move erased much of the week’s heavy losses. XRP had fallen nearly 19% earlier, wiping out over $18 billion in market value. Trading volume exploded to $14.7 billion, while market cap climbed back to approximately $92.4 billion

Investors returned to riskier assets after extreme oversold readings triggered bargain hunting. The rebound was notable even though the overall crypto market was weak following the loss of more than $369 billion worth of capitalization in total, the biggest drop in weekly capitalization since March 2025.

Oversold Conditions Drive XRP Price Rebound

XRP price was the most over-sold in a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. Analyst Dark Defender highlighted critical tests of long-term exponential moving averages.

The 200-month EMA held at $0.777 in October 2025, while the 100-month EMA was tested just days ago. RSI dropped to its lowest reading in history.

Despite global market turbulence from tech stock declines and doubts over Big Tech AI spending, the structure remained intact. High spot demand for Ripple coin appeared once the price stabilized above the psychological $1 level.

Earlier pressure came from roughly $40 million in XRP liquidations and Ripple’s scheduled release of 300 million tokens from escrow. Those factors eased on Friday. Liquidations dropped sharply to about $20.5 million total, balanced between longs and shorts.

Institutional Support Bolsters XRP Price Momentum

XRP spot ETF continued to attract capital. US-traded funds registered three consecutive net inflows days. On Thursday, there was a $1.28 million inflow, after it received $19.5 million on Tuesday and 4.8 million on Wednesday.

Cumulative inflows now stand at $1.21 billion, with assets under management near $888 million.

This type of buying regularly is sometimes an indication of trust. It held its own even when the retail involvement declined.

The Ripple coin open interest of futures decreased to $2.40 billion, the lowest since the beginning of January 2025. The falling OI implies that traders do not have high conviction to continue with the rising movement.

Technical Levels to Watch for Ripple Coin Price Direction

The Ripple coin daily RSI has rebounded to approximately and is rising steadily, out of below 30, indicative of a buy. The stochastic oscillator has turned bullish as well.

However, XRP price MACD remains negative, and price sits below the 50-, 100-, and 200-day moving averages. The longer-term death cross stays in place.

Immediate resistance for XRP price lies at $1.54, followed by $1.62–$1.73 and the major downtrend line near $1.80–$2.00. Ripple coin price has key support at $1.38–$1.40, with deeper levels at $1.20–$1.30 and $1.00–$1.10.

Analyst EGRAG Crypto gives a positive prediction above $1.85, targeting $2.20 next. He views positions as manageable even if the price dips below $1.28.

Short-term charts display a clear V-shaped bounce with strong volume confirmation. In case XRP price remains above $1.40, the bullish argument may be realized, and it will increase to $1.80 and even more.

On the other hand, anything below $1.28 would be an indication of a shift back to a larger downtrend, and tests would be around $1.00.
