XRP has lost 25% of its value in 2026 and faces further downside risk after failing to sustain a move above $1.50, triggering a spike in long liquidations to nearly $670 million. Goldman Sachs sold all its XRP holdings in Q1 2026, signaling institutional caution. Despite increased trading volumes and ETF inflows, market sentiment has shifted from greed to fear, raising the possibility of a deeper correction to around $1.15. However, a historical weekly buy signal based on RSI suggests a potential mid-term rally if the token holds near this level.
