Despite whale distribution, long-term holders are counteracting downward pressure. HODL Waves data shows that the share of XRP supply held by the 1-year to 2-year cohort increased from 8.58 percent to 9.81 percent in the past week. 

This signals growing conviction among maturing holders who acquired XRP less than a year ago and are now opting to retain their tokens through volatility. This steadiness is helping stabilize XRP at $2, softening the impact of whale selling.

XRP Price Notes A Dip

XRP is trading at $2.00 at the time of writing, a crucial psychological and technical support level. In recent days, price movements have repeatedly gravitated back to this point, confirming its importance in maintaining market structure.

Given the opposing pressure from whale selling and long-term holder accumulation, XRP will likely remain rangebound between $2.00 and $2.20 until a clear directional catalyst emerges. A shift in sentiment or improved market conditions would be needed to break this consolidation pattern.

However, if bearish momentum strengthens and whale selling accelerates, XRP could fall through the $1.94 support. Such a breakdown would expose the price to a deeper decline toward $1.85, invalidating any near-term bullish expectations.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
