Still, beneath the surface, several indicators suggest that interest in the token remains firm, especially from institutional investors tracking XRP through exchange-traded funds (ETFs).<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the time of writing, XRP was trading around <strong>$2.05<\/strong>, down from its year-to-date peak of <strong>$2.40<\/strong>. The pullback has dragged its total market capitalization to roughly <strong>$125 billion<\/strong>. Despite the price weakness, data shows that demand through spot XRP ETFs has picked up notably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to recent figures, spot<a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/currencies\/xrp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> XRP <\/a>ETFs attracted <strong>$56 million in new assets last week<\/strong>, marking a <strong>47% jump<\/strong> from the <strong>$38 million<\/strong> added the week before. Even more telling, ETF inflows have already reached <strong>$108 million this week<\/strong>, pushing total assets under management to <strong>$1.52 billion<\/strong>. That figure represents about <strong>1.2% of XRP\u2019s total market cap<\/strong>, highlighting that there is still plenty of room for growth compared to Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, which account for <strong>6.5%<\/strong> and <strong>5.4%<\/strong> of their respective market caps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mixed price action comes at a time when Ripple has been making meaningful regulatory progress. Earlier this year, <strong>Ripple Labs secured licenses in both the United Kingdom and Luxembourg<\/strong>, opening the door for partnerships with more European financial institutions. These approvals followed closely after Ripple received a <strong>banking charter from the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency<\/strong>, a significant milestone that strengthens its regulatory standing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Looking ahead, XRP could also see increased demand linked to <strong>Evernorth\u2019s upcoming public listing via a SPAC merger<\/strong>. The company already holds millions of XRP tokens, and becoming a public entity could provide additional capital to expand those holdings. Evernorth plans to generate yield through <strong>regulated DeFi strategies<\/strong>, including participating as a validator on the <strong>XRP Ledger<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, activity within the broader XRP ecosystem continues to grow. A rising number of holders are moving tokens to <strong>Flare\u2019s FXRP<\/strong>, which has now surpassed <strong>$150 million in total value locked (TVL)<\/strong> within its DeFi applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From a technical perspective, the <strong>four-hour chart<\/strong> shows XRP retreating from <strong>$2.4165 on January 6<\/strong> to current levels near <strong>$2.05<\/strong>. The price has slipped below the <strong>50% Fibonacci retracement level<\/strong>, as well as the <strong>50-day and 100-day exponential moving averages<\/strong>, alongside the <strong>Supertrend indicator<\/strong>, all of which point to near-term bearish pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, there is a constructive signal forming. XRP has developed a <strong>double-bottom pattern around $2.04<\/strong>, with a neckline near <strong>$2.188<\/strong>. This setup is often associated with a potential bullish reversal. As long as XRP holds above the <strong>$2.03\u2013$2.04 support zone<\/strong>, the broader outlook remains positive. A clear break below that level, however, could open the door to further downside toward the <strong>78.6% retracement level at $1.91<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/crypto-17\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Crypto Markets Jittery as White House Wavers on CLARITY Act<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>XRP has entered a short-term correction after a strong start to the year, sliding more than 15% from its 2025 &#8230; <\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more-container\"><a title=\"XRP Builds Double-Bottom as ETF Inflows Surge 47%\" class=\"read-more button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/xrp-7\/#more-2253\" aria-label=\"Read more about XRP Builds Double-Bottom as ETF Inflows Surge 47%\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2254,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[9],"tags":[3517,3516,3512,3509,3508,3514,3510,3513,2671,3511,687,3515],"class_list":["post-2253","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cryptocurrency","tag-evernorth-xrp-spac-merger-news","tag-flare-fxrp-defi-tvl-growth","tag-ripple-regulatory-approval-europe","tag-ripple-uk-and-luxembourg-licenses","tag-xrp-double-bottom-pattern-explained","tag-xrp-etf-assets-under-management","tag-xrp-etf-inflows-news","tag-xrp-ledger-validator-yield-strategy","tag-xrp-price-analysis-2025","tag-xrp-price-prediction-this-week","tag-xrp-support-and-resistance-levels","tag-xrp-technical-analysis-four-hour-chart","resize-featured-image"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Untitled-design-2026-01-18T210334.095.webp","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2253","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2253"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2253\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2255,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2253\/revisions\/2255"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2254"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2253"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2253"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decentralnetwork.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2253"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<!-- This website is optimized by Airlift.
