However, both of those product launches were met with immediate selling pressure and a price slump.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, a large part of XRP\u2019s price slide can be attributed to broader market conditions. After all, BTC just <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/fresh-bitcoin-sell-off-leaves-the-average-etf-investor-underwater\/\">dumped<\/a> to a new seven-month low of $85,000, while ETH struggles well below $2,800. Both of those assets are down by 7-8% in the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>As such, it\u2019s no surprise that Ripple\u2019s cross-border token has tanked by a similar percentage. However, its weekly losses are worse than the market leaders, unlike other altcoins, such as SOL, TRX, and BNB.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s particularly interesting in this case is the fact that two spot XRP ETFs were released in the US within that 7-day period. As <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/canarys-xrp-etf-xrpc-launch-successful-heres-what-happened-on-day-1\/\">reported<\/a> last week, Canary Capital\u2019s XRPC broke the 2025 trading volume record, while Bitwise\u2019s XRP, which was <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/the-second-xrp-etf-hits-us-markets-today-heres-how-its-going-so-far\/\">launched<\/a> yesterday, came in third for the year, according to preliminary data from SoSoValue.<\/p>\n<p>After Ripple\u2019s legal case against the US SEC concluded, the potential approval of spot XRP ETFs in the country became the main catalyst for a possible price surge, with investors hoping for a substantial uptick once they see the light of day.<\/p>\n<p>However, as is typically the case in such situations, the launch days of both ETFs became classic sell-the-news events, with XRP dropping below $2.00 for the first time since the early October crash.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from that brief collapse, though, the last time XRP stood this low was back in June, and in April before that, meaning that it has erased all yearly gains and is now deep in the red.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/XRPUSD-2.png\"><\/a>XRPUSD.
