However, thinner market depth can make XRP more sensitive to large orders because fewer bids and asks sit near the current price.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">XRP Binance 30D liquidity index, source: CryptoQuant<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>That means sudden buying or selling can move price faster than usual. For traders, the current setup creates a market where volatility can rise even if daily volume remains modest.<\/p>\n<p>The drop also signals weaker speculative activity on Binance. Arab Chain said the decline may show reduced new liquidity inflows and a more cautious market structure.<\/p>\n<p>The update comes as XRP remains stuck near the same range it has traded around for months. The $1.35\u2013$1.40 area now carries added focus because it connects thin liquidity with repeated whale activity.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Binance whales withdraw XRP near $1.35<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>CryptoQuant analyst Amr Taha <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptoquant.com\/quicktake\/6a12de55f2609c4353777a40-XRP-Whales-Withdraw-49M-From-Binance-as-Price-Returns-to-FebruaryMarch-Accumulat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">reported<\/a> that XRP whales withdrew $49.2 million from Binance on May 22 while the token traded below $1.35. In exchange-flow terms, negative whale netflow means large holders moved more XRP away from Binance than they sent in.<\/p>\n<p>That move matters because it happened during price weakness, not after a strong rally. Whale withdrawals during weakness can show that some large holders are reducing available exchange supply instead of preparing to sell.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1779757666_745_Can-XRP-price-hold-135-as-Binance-liquidity-falls-to.webp.webp\" alt=\"XRP multi exchange daily whales netflow, source: CryptoQuant\" class=\"wp-image-14462518\"  ><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">XRP multi exchange daily whales netflow, source: CryptoQuant<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The May 22 reading also followed similar whale behavior earlier this year. Taha cited negative Binance whale netflows of $60.7 million on Feb. 27, $35.5 million on March 6, and $37 million on March 26.<\/p>\n<p>All four signals appeared near the $1.35\u2013$1.40 range. That makes the zone one of the clearest recent areas of repeated Binance whale withdrawals.<\/p>\n<p>Still, whale withdrawals do not confirm an immediate rebound. They can reduce potential sell-side supply, but price still needs stronger demand and a clean technical breakout.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>XRP price stays below key moving averages<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>XRP traded at $1.36 on May 25, 2026, according to crypto.news price data. The token was up 0.23% over 24 hours, while its 24-hour trading volume stood at about $1.35 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The same data showed XRP trading between $1.34 and $1.37 over the past 24 hours. XRP ranked fifth by market cap, with a market value of about $84.23 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The short-term chart remains weak. XRP traded near $1.3584, below the 9-day moving average at $1.3663 and the 21-day moving average at $1.4051.<\/p>\n<p>That structure keeps pressure on buyers unless XRP reclaims the $1.36\u2013$1.40 area. The shorter moving average also remains below the longer one, which keeps the near-term trend neutral-to-bearish.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"627\" src=\"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1779757666_996_Can-XRP-price-hold-135-as-Binance-liquidity-falls-to.webp.webp\" alt=\"XRP price chart, source: crypto.news\" class=\"wp-image-14462517\"  ><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">XRP price chart, source: crypto.news<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Immediate support sits near $1.3435, close to the daily low.

That shows the latest bounce has not yet drawn strong market participation.<\/p>\n<p>The MACD also remains below the zero line. The MACD reading near -0.0150, signal line near -0.0066, and negative histogram near -0.0084 show weak bearish momentum.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Traders watch $1.40 and $1.50 resistance<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Related crypto.news coverage said XRP recently traded near $1.37 as exchange-flow data showed cooling deposit pressure. The same report said Binance and Coinbase had shifted toward withdrawal-led transactions, which may show easing exchange selling pressure. XRP stayed within a range, with support near $1.29\u2013$1.35 and resistance near $1.50.<\/p>\n<p>Separate crypto.news coverage showed a large XRP options trader collected $224,500 in premiums by betting XRP would stay near $1.40 through June 26. The trader sold 1.5 million contracts each of the $1.40 call and put options on Deribit.<\/p>\n<p>That options trade fits the wider range-bound setup. Crypto.news noted that XRP had traded between $1.30 and $1.50 for roughly 60% of 2026, making the $1.40 area a key short-term price zone.<\/p>\n<p>Crypto Patel also cautioned against aggressive upside targets without enough liquidity, structure, or a clear catalyst map. The analyst said $10 remains a long-run target, while the best accumulation area sits between $1 and $0.70.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Some Moon Boy On Crypto Twitter: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24XRP&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">$XRP<\/a> Will Hit $50 Soon \ud83d\ude80<\/p>\n<p>Me: Bro, Show Me The Chart First. \ud83e\udd21<\/p>\n<p>Let Me Give You The Real Map of <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/XRP?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">#XRP<\/a> \ud83d\udc47<br \/>\u274c $50 = 36x From Current Price<br \/>\u274c No Liquidity.
