The XRP market is showing signs of a reversal in its medium-term downtrend. After a brief decline in the middle of the month, the token's price recovered to $1.48, posting a daily gain of around 7%.
The price stabilized amid a massive wave of institutional buying and a broader strengthening of the altcoin market.
The asset's decline to a local low of $1.29, recorded last week, was primarily technical and emotional in nature. The retail sector's reaction to local regulatory debates in Washington proved short-lived, as XRP's underlying legal status as a digital commodity remains unchanged, supported by the 2023 court precedent and official regulatory guidance issued in March 2026.

The price decline to psychological support levels prompted large holders to step in. According to on-chain metrics, 1.54 billion XRP was withdrawn to institutional addresses within 96 hours of the dip. The total amount of liquidity directed toward buying the dip is estimated at $2.2 billion.
This capital inflow fully offset selling pressure and stabilized daily trading volume at around $92.6 million.
