XRP Price Reversal Looms Owing To $600 Million Long-Term Holder Buy

XRP shows signs of recovery as long-term holders accumulate $600 million worth, hinting at a price reversal if resistance breaks.

XRP has struggled to recover recent losses, with its price lacking upward momentum in recent sessions. Despite limited progress on the charts, the altcoin is showing early signs of support. 

Long-term holders are beginning to step in with significant accumulation, suggesting potential resilience against ongoing weakness in the broader crypto market.

XRP Key Holders Are Turning Around

On-chain data highlights a shift in XRP’s long-term holder activity. The HODLer net position change shows that after nearly a month of steady selling, investors with larger positions are returning to accumulation. This turnaround signals renewed conviction in XRP’s future price potential, particularly at current discounted levels.

Over the past several days, more than $600 million worth of XRP has been acquired by these long-term holders. Such accumulation reflects growing confidence that the cryptocurrency may find strength following this period of weakness.

The broader macro momentum also supports a potential reversal for XRP. The net unrealized profit/loss (NUPL) indicator is nearing the optimism threshold, which has historically been a point where XRP price has reversed upward. Current conditions suggest that investors are holding reduced profits, creating a setup that has previously triggered rallies.

The decline in profits often acts as an incentive for new capital to enter, as lower valuations appeal to buyers. This dynamic has been visible in XRP’s recent activity, aligning with long-term holder accumulation.

XRP Price Needs A Boost

XRP trades at $2.91 at the time of writing, struggling beneath the $2.95 resistance. The asset recently failed to break through the $3.07 resistance, which led to the price falling back toward current levels. This rejection has left XRP consolidating without strong short-term upward momentum.

Investor support, however, suggests conditions may soon shift. If XRP breaches the $3.07 resistance, flipping $3.12 into support could spark fresh momentum. Such a move may enable a climb to $3.27, positioning XRP for renewed strength after weeks of stalled price action across the cryptocurrency market.

If market bearishness deepens, XRP could retrace toward $2.74 or consolidate below $2.95. This outcome would maintain pressure on the altcoin while preventing a breakout. Such price action would temporarily invalidate the bullish outlook, keeping XRP constrained.

Foreign investors have made net sales of $31 billion in Indian stocks this year, and administrative controls are accelerating hedging demand towards the offshore NDF market, with the effectiveness of interventions continuously diminishing. The most critical risk lies in the fact that the yield spread between Indian and US 10-year government bonds has sharply dropped from 600 basis points in 2013 to just 200 basis points, with the traditional interest rate defense line nearly breached. India faces a dilemma: persisting on the current path will exhaust policy space, while relying on rate hikes to rebuild the yield spread would directly stifle economic growth.
