Institutional money is starting to flow back into crypto and XRP is leading the charge.
Over the past week, XRP pulled in $119.6 million in fund inflows—its strongest weekly performance since mid-December 2025, when sentiment around the asset was far more negative. That figure puts XRP ahead of every other major crypto asset for the week, including Bitcoin.
In total, the broader crypto market saw $224 million in inflows, marking a clear shift after a period of consistent outflows. It’s an early sign that institutional sentiment may be turning positive again.
Two key factors appear to be driving this: improving regulatory clarity and XRP’s established role in cross-border payments. Even with macro uncertainty still in play, the setup is starting to look more interesting.
Can XRP Reach $2.00?
XRP has gained around 4.6–5% on the day, trading in the $1.37–$1.38 range. In the short term, the picture is improving—the price is now holding above its 10-day and 20-day moving averages, which is a positive signal.
However, zooming out tells a more cautious story. XRP is still trading below its 50-, 100-, and 200-day moving averages, meaning the broader trend hasn’t fully turned bullish yet.
The RSI currently sits around 39, which is neutral but slightly on the oversold side. That suggests there could still be room for upside before momentum starts to fade.
Key Levels to Watch
Support levels are building around $1.31, $1.29, and $1.27, giving the price a cushion if it pulls back.
On the upside, XRP is testing a key resistance zone near $1.38–$1.40. A strong breakout above this level—especially with solid trading volume—could open the door to $1.50, and possibly $1.70 if momentum continues.
So right now, there’s a bit of a split narrative:
Fundamentals (inflows) are clearly bullish
Technical structure is still in recovery mode
Both can be true at the same time—and that’s exactly where XRP stands.
Where Traders Are Looking Next
Even with a potential 50% upside, XRP’s large market cap (around $84B+) means massive gains require significant capital inflows.
Because of that, some traders are exploring earlier-stage opportunities while still staying within the broader crypto ecosystem.
One project drawing attention is Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER), a Layer 2 solution designed to bring faster transactions and smart contract capabilities to Bitcoin using Solana’s Virtual Machine.
The goal is to address Bitcoin’s main limitations—slow speeds, high fees, and limited programmability—while maintaining its security. The project has already raised around $32 million in its presale, with tokens priced at $0.0136 and staking rewards available for early participants.
