Updated: Jan 06 2026- Surge in Derivatives Volume: XRP's derivatives volume increased by 43% to $5.93 billion, indicating a resurgence in market participation, which may signal growing investor confidence in the asset's near-term prospects.
- Rising Buy/Sell Ratio: Binance's Taker Buy Sell Ratio reached 0.991, the highest since November, reflecting reduced sell pressure and increased buy-side interest, potentially paving the way for further price appreciation.
- Signs of Price Stabilization: XRP's price climbed to $2.13 in the latest update, marking a 3% increase over the previous 24 hours, while fluctuating between $1.83 and $2.16 over the past week, indicating a slow recovery from December's selling phase.
- Critical Support Levels: XRP is currently holding above the midline support at $1.90, and if it maintains levels above $1.95, resistance could emerge at $2.25 and $2.50, further solidifying its short-term bullish trend.
