TL;DR<\/p>\n
XRP holds near $3, but whales sold $2.1B, leaving $2.48 as critical support.<\/span> Ripple\u2019s XRP traded close to $3 at press time, gaining 5% in 24 hours. The token has dropped 9% over the past week and remains 18% below its all-time high of $3.65, reached on July 18. During the rally, trading volumes crossed $110 million at peak hours as larger buyers entered the market.<\/span><\/p>\n The price momentum trimmed after sellers stepped in above $3.03 and triggered a short pullback on profit-takers. In the past 24 hours, XRP traded between $2.83 and $3.03. The token has entered the consolidation phase over the past week with an extended lifetime range of between $2.77 and $3.32.<\/span><\/p>\n Data shared by analyst Ali Martinez shows that XRP\u2019s recent market structure is supported by historical accumulation zones. 1.80 billion XRP, or 2.81% of the circulating supply, was previously acquired at roughly $2.80. This zone acts as a temporary price buffer.<\/span><\/p>\n A firmer support level is positioned below $2.48, where 1.41 billion XRP, or 2.2% of the supply, changed hands. With lighter historical buying between these two zones, current prices remain exposed to sharper moves if selling intensifies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n On-chain data shows that past accumulation behavior points to $2.80 as a temporary buffer for $XRP<\/a>, but real support begins below $2.48. pic.twitter.com\/7R7675Ubkz<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Ali (@ali_charts) August 3, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n\n Martinez also <\/span>reported<\/span><\/a> that the Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio recently formed a death cross, a bearish pattern that can increase the likelihood of extended pullbacks as more holders face unrealized losses.<\/span><\/p>\n Market analyst CRYPTOWZRD noted that XRP and XRP\/BTC ended their daily sessions in positive territory. The subsequent resistance limits lie at around $3.30 and $3.65. A breakout above $3.65 would establish a new high. Key daily support is at $2.80, with intraday support at 2.83.<\/span><\/p>\n XRP Daily Technical Outlook:$XRP<\/a> closed strongly bullish as XRPBTC recovered quickly. However, one more healthy bullish Daily candle in XRPBTC is necessary to call a complete reversal and push towards $3.6500.

A confirmed break above it could drive the price action toward $3.23. Failure to hold that threshold may result in sideways consolidation near the lower support zones.<\/span><\/p>\n In a post on X, analyst CW added<\/a> that XRP is currently liquidating short positions after clearing highly leveraged longs. CW noted that a move to $3.06 could trigger a wave of short liquidations, which may increase short-term volatility.<\/p>\n Large XRP holders have shifted strategy since the July peak. Whales sold more than 700 million XRP worth over $2.1 billion within a single day.
