XRP price and crypto crash amid global unrest
On Saturday, cryptocurrencies and crypto-related stocks fell alongside a broader risk-off move in markets, with XRP trading in the red.
Saturday's sell-off, which saw over $515 million in total liquidations in the last 24 hours, comes as investors considered recent macro concerns. About $128 billion in value was erased from the total crypto market capitalization, according to data from CoinGecko.

The decline comes amid elevated selling pressure, despite strong trading activity. 24-hour volume has risen 27.8% to $3.94 billion, pushing the Vol/Mkt Cap ratio to 4.99%, which signals increased participation during the downturn.
The combination of a sharp price drop and rising volume suggests active distribution and profit-taking, potentially amplified by short-term traders reacting to broader market weakness.
High volume during a decline often reflects aggressive selling and possible liquidation pressure in derivatives markets, contributing to XRP’s downside move today.
