XRP tests $1.33 as rising leverage and weak price action create unstable setup

Funding spikes and liquidations point to positioning build-up, with direction hinging on whether buyers can defend support. What to know : XRP is hovering around $1.33 as price action drifts lower, with momentum slowing but not yet reversing. Rising funding rates and growing leverage show traders are increasingly bullish even as repeated rejections near $1.35 to $1.36 keep sellers in control. If $1.33 support breaks, XRP could slide toward $1.30, while a sustained move above $1.35 to $1.36 would be needed to shift momentum higher.
