Price remains below the 50-day simple moving average near $1.62, indicating the broader trend is still bearish.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">XRP price analysis | Source: Crypto.News<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Immediate support sits near $1.30\u2013$1.32, with a stronger demand zone around $1.20, where buyers previously stepped in aggressively. <\/p>\n<p>On the upside, resistance is clustered at $1.45, followed by the 50-day SMA at $1.62. A decisive break above that level would be needed to shift medium-term momentum.<\/p>\n<p>The RSI (14) is hovering near 40, suggesting weak momentum but not yet oversold conditions. This reflects consolidation rather than strong accumulation. Unless XRP reclaims $1.45\u2013$1.62, rallies may face selling pressure.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>XRP is back in focus after new infrastructure developments tied to Ripple\u2019s institutional push.
