The Ripple XRP price witnessed a significant fluctuation in the last 24-hours causing a surge of speculation among traders and investors in the cryptocurrency market. The token experienced a notable downturn, slipping below the critical support level of $0.53. This movement caught the attention of Bill Morgan, a lawyer known for supporting XRP, who highlighted the token’s decline on X with a succinct comment: “Ouch.”

Meanwhile, in his previous posts on X, the pro-XRP lawyer portrayed bearish thoughts on the token, aligning with the bearish movement witnessed recently. Data by CoinMarketCap showcases that the token traded initially in the green today. However, it showcased a phenomenal drop during the late hours, dropping below the crucial support level mentioned above. 
Intriguingly, the derivatives data fueled further speculations over the Ripple-backed token’s price action ahead. 
<h2 id="xrp-slips-below-support-with-increase-in-supply">XRP Slips Below Support With Increase In Supply</h2> 
According to a <a href="https://coingape.com/427-mln-xrp-on-the-move-sparks-curiosity-will-price-reach-0-63/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a> by CoinGape Media today, a staggering 400 million XRP was unlocked from escrow at Ripple, significantly pushing XRP’s supply. Moreover, additional dumps to CEXs by an XRP whale further weighed in on the Ripple-backed token’s rising supply. This colossal supply surge appears to align with usual market sentiments of a token’s slump with the supply pump, as also seen by XRP’s drop below support witnessed today. 
Meanwhile, in a previous post on X, Morgan took a jab at Ali MArtinez’s proclamation of XRP’s potential run to $0.63, garnering attention among crypto market traders and investors. “Right now it’s failing to hold an allegedly key support at $0.54 and heading lower.”- Morgan stated in his post on X, replying to Huber’s post spotlighting Martinez’s prediction. 
Whereas, in another post on X, the pro-XRP lawyer spotlighted Flare’s topping of Aave and ALGO by global market cap. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> 
 Wow FLR flipped Aave and ALGO. <a href="https://t.co/cghJAskUWn">https://t.co/cghJAskUWn</a>

<h2 id="xrp-price-plunges">XRP Price Plunges</h2> 
As of writing, CoinMarketCap’s data showcased a drop of 1.99% in <a href="https://coingape.com/price/xrp/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">XRP’s price</a> over the past 24 hours and is currently trading at $0.5335. The token’s market cap also jotted down a 1.97% plunge, reaching $29.13 billion. 
However, the token’s derivatives data showcased a 6.03% rise in XRP’s open interest, reaching $716.95 million. This might hint at investors buying the dip in confidence, with new money entering the market. Even the volume, per <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.coinglass.com/currencies/XRP" target="_blank">Coinglass</a>‘ data, surged 56.94%, reaching $754.75 million. This signaled that a consolidatory phase might be imminent for the Ripple-backed token, amassing attention across the crypto realm.
