Weak On-Chain Signals Raise Risk of a Move Toward $1.00"},"content":{"rendered":"<div id=\"ftwp-postcontent\">\n<p>The XRP price is facing renewed selling pressure, even as Ripple announces another step toward deeper institutional integration with the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>The token is trading near $1.42, down more than 10% over the past 24 hours, as market participants focus less on corporate developments and more on weakening technical and on-chain signals. The divergence shows a familiar pattern in the markets, positive infrastructure news does not always translate into price support.<\/p>\n<p>The latest drop accelerated after XRP slipped below $1.60, a level that had previously served as short-term support. Once that floor gave way, automated selling and stop-loss orders appear to have intensified the move, pushing prices closer to levels not seen since the last broader market pullback.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/XRPUSD_2026-02-05_13-43-58.png?w=860&#038;resize=860%2C603\" alt=\"XRP XPRUSD XRP price XRPUSD_2026-02-05_13-43-58\" width=\"860\" height=\"603\"><\/p>\n<pre>XRP's price trends to the downside on the daily chart.

The Relative Strength Index is approaching oversold territory, reflecting strong downside momentum rather than a slow grind lower. Trading volumes have also picked up during the decline, a sign that sellers are acting with conviction rather than hesitation.<\/p>\n<p>On-chain data adds to the cautious outlook. Recent metrics show reduced <a href=\"https:\/\/xrpl.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">network activity<\/a> and limited evidence of sustained accumulation at current levels. In previous corrections, XRP price often stabilized when wallet activity and transaction counts began to rise.<\/p>\n<p>If the price fails to reclaim $1.60, analysts increasingly point to the $1.00 psychological level as the next area to watch. While oversold conditions can sometimes trigger short-term bounces, the broader structure suggests XRP remains vulnerable unless sentiment improves.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"ftoc-heading-2\"><strong>Ripple\u2019s Hyperliquid Integration Fails to Lift XRP<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The price weakness comes despite Ripple announcing that its institutional prime brokerage arm, <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/xrp-news-ripple-prime-adds-150204087.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Ripple Prime<\/a>, has added support for Hyperliquid, a decentralized derivatives platform.<\/p>\n<p>The integration allows institutional clients to access on-chain perpetual futures while cross-margining those positions with assets such as foreign exchange, fixed income, and other digital assets through a single account.<\/p>\n<p>Market reaction has been mixed. While the move underscores Ripple\u2019s push to bridge traditional finance and DeFi, it does not create a direct new demand driver for XRP itself. Some investors had hoped Ripple would prioritize deeper integration of the XRP Ledger.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"ftoc-heading-3\"><strong>Diverging Signals Across the Market<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The contrast is clear elsewhere. Hyperliquid\u2019s native token, HYPE, has shown relative strength following the integration news, trading above key moving averages even as the broader market weakens.<\/p>\n<p>That divergence suggests capital is flowing toward platforms tied to institutional trading activity, rather than toward legacy large-cap tokens facing technical breakdowns.<\/p>\n<p>For now, XRP\u2019s trajectory appears driven more by market structure and on-chain signals than by Ripple\u2019s expanding institutional footprint. Until buyers step in decisively, the risk of a deeper XRP price move toward $1.00 remains on the table.<\/p>\n<p>Cover image from ChatGPT, XRPUSD chart on Tradingview<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The XRP price is facing renewed selling pressure, even as Ripple announces another step toward deeper institutional integration with the [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":61492,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[220],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-61491","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tien-dien-tu"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61491","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=61491"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61491\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/61492"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=61491"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=61491"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=61491"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
