Most major crypto tokens are trading higher, but XRP is still lagging. Instead of joining the broader bounce, it’s stuck pressing resistance around $1.10 to $1.11. XRP price action shows repeated tests of resistance around $1.11, with support holding at $1.08. The last print is just above that range, at $1.11. Despite these tests, there’s no clean breakout yet.

This is where the drop in network activity becomes critical. A 51% decline in active XRP Ledger accounts means that even as XRP trades around the same range, real participation is thinning out. That’s a deeper signal than a price pause, fewer active users and new wallets point to weaker demand, not just consolidation. And without fresh user growth or renewed network use, it’s harder to make a case for stronger upside momentum from here.

XRP’s next move tracks whether XRP Ledger activity stabilises after sliding to 2026 lows.
