The XRP segment stood out for a combination of fresh wallet creation, depressed profitability metrics and relatively subdued crowd sentiment.<\/p>\n<p>Quinlivan said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/xrp-news\/xrp-ethereum-now-undervalued-mvrv-santiment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">XRP\u2019s MVRV setup<\/a> looked \u201cpretty similar to Ethereum,\u201d but with an even deeper long-term drawdown among active holders. According to the Santiment data cited during the livestream, XRP\u2019s 365-day MVRV sat around negative 35.12%, while its 30-day MVRV had slipped back into negative territory at roughly negative 3%.<\/p>\n<p>That combination, he argued, places XRP in a statistically less overheated position than during periods when recent and longer-term holders are sitting on large unrealized gains. \u201cAgain, that golden rule, they\u2019re both below zero, meaning you\u2019d be buying whether you\u2019re doing short or long-term trading at a less risky point than the average moment in XRP\u2019s 11, 12 year history now,\u201d Brian said.<\/p>\n<p>He was more forceful on the long-term figure, noting that readings below negative 30% tend to mark a point where the average active holder has already absorbed<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/xrp-price-softens-1-350\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> substantial losses<\/a>. \u201cAnything below 30, no matter what asset you\u2019re looking at, that\u2019s something that should provide confidence in your investment because you have something that quantifies how much blood in the streets there is,\u201d he said. \u201cYou can buy knowing that your fellow peers that you\u2019re trading against, you\u2019re not on the same team just because they\u2019re investing in the same asset.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re buying when those fellow peers have already experienced immense losses that you haven\u2019t because you\u2019d be opening a fresh new entry into XRP.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sentiment data added another layer to the setup. Brian said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/cardano-xrp-sentiment-plummets-greedy-fearful\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">XRP\u2019s social tone<\/a> had been \u201cpretty up and down lately,\u201d but leaned more negative than usual, which Santiment typically treats as constructive from a contrarian perspective. The asset was showing about 1.7 bullish comments for every bearish comment, a level that may sound elevated in isolation but is below XRP\u2019s usual social baseline, which Brian said tends to run closer to a 2-to-1 bullish ratio.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of one outlier around May 14, he said XRP sentiment had remained below its typical average for roughly the prior 10 days. That matters because, in Santiment\u2019s framework, overheated bullishness often appears closer to local tops, while apathy or frustration can emerge near more attractive entries.<\/p>\n<p>The livestream also framed XRP within a softer altcoin environment. Brian noted that many assets have faced negative sentiment because they failed to follow Bitcoin into a more convincing rally. He pointed to the way market attention around specific integrations or partnerships can fade quickly if price does not respond, referencing XRP-related hype around a Rakuten partnership roughly a month earlier as an example of how narratives can lose traction without confirmation from the market.<\/p>\n<p>At press time, XRP traded at $1.36.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>XRP registered one of its strongest network-growth bursts of the year, with Santiment reporting 4,300 new wallets created in 24 hours, the fourth-largest spike of 2026.
