XRP Price Dip Fuels Market Speculations

The recent crypto market crash has fueled discussions in the market, especially as XRP price recorded a sharp decline today. Notably, Ripple’s native crypto was one of the top-performing altcoins in the recent days as market optimism soared due to the RLUSD launch, XRP ETF anticipation, and other positive market trends.

In addition, the crypto issued by US firms has gained notable traction amid Donald Trump’s support for the digital assets space. Despite that, the recent dip in XRP has fueled discussions among investors, with many seeking clarity on the potential future path for the crypto.

However, despite the dip, market experts remained confident in the asset due to the positive developments in the Ripple market. For context, a prominent figure in the market, The BitBoy recently lauded Ripple’s stablecoin launch and said that “RLUSD will drive billions of dollars in liquidity through XRP Ledger”.

In a separate post, he said explained why RLUSD is “so important” for Ripple’s native crypto. Meanwhile, he noted that “Stablecoins are the backbone” of the crypto market and “liquidity is king” in the digital assets space. Considering that, RLUSD is likely to boost liquidity, which in turn could provide a boost to the XRP price ahead.

Key Levels To Watch For Ripple’s Native Crypto

XRP price today slipped around 4% to $2.28 during writing, while its trading volume slumped 7% to $21 billion. Over the last 24 hours, the crypto has touched a low of $2.17, indicating strong selling pressure in the market. Furthermore, CoinGlass data showed that XRP Futures Open Interest declined 11% recently, reflecting the gloomy sentiment hovering in the market.

Amid this, top experts have revealed crucial levels for XRP to watch ahead. In a recent X post, EGRAG Crypto said that XRP has a key support level of $2.3. Once this level is crossed, the crypto will target $2.62 ahead and $3.28 in its next run.
