April

USDC

Strong

<p>What is documented: on Saturday, XRP closed a losing day for the ninth time in a row and slipped to sixth place by market value, behind the stablecoin USDC. Our assessment follows further down: as long as the US funds receive no new money, XRP lacks the buyer who would pay for the way back into the top 5.</p>
<p>On Saturday afternoon, XRP cost around $0.96, or €0.87, according to <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/xrp" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinGecko</a>. The intraday low was just under $0.97, the 24-hour high $1.03. XRP lost a little more than 5 percent within a day and almost 17 percent over the week. Where the price could head over the coming months is covered in our <a href="https://cryptoticker.io/en/prediction/xrp-price-prediction/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP price prediction</a>. This article stays with the weekend: the ranking, the losing streak and the funds.</p>
<h2 id="xrp-price-on-saturday-afternoon-0-96-and-sixth-place-behind-usdc">XRP price on Saturday afternoon: $0.96 and sixth place behind USDC</h2>
<p>A coin's market value is its price multiplied by the number of units in circulation. For XRP, that came to $61.1 billion on Saturday afternoon, according to CoinGecko. USDC, Circle's dollar stablecoin, stood at $69.0 billion at the same time, BNB at $77.3 billion. Ahead of them are <a href="https://cryptoticker.io/en/prediction/bitcoin-price-prediction/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">bitcoin</a>, Ethereum, Tether and BNB. The specialist site <a href="https://u.today/xrps-top-five-status-at-risk-as-price-breaks-below-1-whats-next" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">U.Today</a> also reported the drop out of the top 5 on Saturday, based on the CoinMarketCap ranking.</p>
<p>Fifth place is more than a statistic for XRP. Price lists in apps and on comparison sites sort by market value, and anyone reading the first five rows no longer sees XRP. For a price that has fallen a good 73 percent from its record of $3.65 in July 2025, this comes at a bad time.</p>
<h2 id="nine-losing-days-in-a-row-xrp-down-26-percent-since-november-5">Nine losing days in a row: XRP down 26 percent since November 5</h2>
<p>CoinGecko's daily data show the streak clearly. On November 5, XRP closed at $1.30. After that, it fell every single day: $1.21 on November 6, $1.11 on the 9th, $1.05 on the 11th and $1.01 on Friday. By Saturday afternoon, another 5 percent had been shed. From November 5 to today, that is around 26 percent. U.Today counts nine losing days in a row; if Saturday also ends lower, it would be the tenth and thus the longest streak since the start of the year.</p>
<p>Bitcoin also fell over the same period, but by less. On November 5, bitcoin cost a little over $80,400; on Saturday afternoon, around $65,300. That is a drop of just under 19 percent. Over the week, bitcoin is down 13.6 percent and XRP 16.9 percent. XRP is falling with the market, but each time a little further. On Friday evening, forced selling triggered more than $330 million of liquidations across the market within two hours as bitcoin slipped below $67,000, according to <a href="https://news.bitcoin.com/price-predictions/xrp-price-below-1-lowest-since-2024-xrp-etfs-turn-one" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin.com News</a>.</p>

<h2 id="market-cap-ranking-why-stablecoins-move-up-in-a-sell-off">Market cap ranking: why stablecoins move up in a sell-off</h2>
<p>A stablecoin such as USDC is pegged to the dollar. One USDC is meant to be worth one dollar at all times; its market value only grows or shrinks when customers deposit or withdraw dollars. When the crypto market falls, USDC's market value therefore stays almost unchanged, while the value of XRP, Solana or BNB drops with the price. In a sell-off, <a href="https://cryptoticker.io/en/charts/stablecoins/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">stablecoins</a> climb the ranking without doing anything themselves.</p>
<p>That is exactly what happened to XRP. On November 5, XRP's market value stood at $82.6 billion according to CoinGecko; on Saturday afternoon, at $61.1 billion. A good $21 billion of market value has thus disappeared in nine days. USDC did not need to grow for this; XRP simply fell below the level USDC holds.</p>
<p>From this, it is possible to calculate what a return would take. If USDC stays at $69.0 billion, XRP needs a good 13 percent more market value. With an unchanged number of coins in circulation, that corresponds to a price of around $1.09. For fourth place ahead of BNB, it would take a good 26 percent, or around $1.22, provided BNB does not fall further.</p>
<h2 id="since-yesterday-the-0-985-level-has-broken">Since yesterday: the $0.985 level has broken</h2>
<p>In our <a href="https://cryptoticker.io/en/xrp-price-prediction-whale-wallets-etf-outflows-november-13-2026/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP price prediction from Friday morning</a>, XRP stood just above one dollar after an overnight low of $0.9998. At the time, we named $0.985 as the level to the downside and $1.055 and $1.12 to the upside. Since then, XRP has not held the lower level: on Saturday, the price fell to just under $0.97 and traded at $0.96 in the afternoon. The $0.985 level roughly matched the August low, when XRP traded below one dollar from August 11 to 19, 2026, and then jumped to almost $1.70.</p>
<p>The ranking is the new element. On Friday morning, fifth place was not yet an issue; on Saturday, it is lost. Sentiment has turned as well: the large number of wallets holding at least 10,000 XRP, which Santiment put at around 343,500 on Friday, did not stop the fall below one dollar.</p>
<h2 id="xrp-etfs-after-one-year-1-19-billion-xrp-but-no-inflows-since-october-29">XRP ETFs after one year: 1.19 billion XRP, but no inflows since October 29</h2>
<p>On Friday, the US spot ETFs on XRP turned one. The first fund, Canary's XRPC, launched on November 13, 2025, followed by Bitwise, Franklin Templeton, 21Shares, Grayscale and REX. The official XRP account wrote on X: “One year ago today, the first US ETF to hold only XRP began trading.”</p>
<p>The anniversary balance sheet is mixed. According to Bitcoin.com News, the funds hold around 1.19 billion XRP; community tallies come to 1.16 billion. Net assets stand at around $1.16 billion according to SoSoValue, and a total of about $1.79 billion has flowed in since launch. Since October 29, however, there has not been a single day of net inflows. In November, outflows add up to about $18.6 million.</p>
<p>The mandatory filings of large US investors are worth a second look. Japanese group Rakuten reported 6,690 shares in the Bitwise XRP ETF worth $111,255 as of September 30 in its 13F filing on November 13. According to Bitcoin.com News, 82 such filings have named the Bitwise fund since October 1. The data lag by a quarter, however, and say nothing about the selling in November.</p>
<p>Retail investors in Europe generally cannot buy the US funds, because they lack the mandatory key information document. If you want to hold XRP through a security, you can turn to exchange-traded products listed on European exchanges.</p>

<h2 id="strong-dollar-the-us-dollar-index-at-its-highest-since-april-2025">Strong dollar: the US dollar index at its highest since April 2025</h2>
<p>The pressure does not only come from the crypto market. The US dollar index, which measures the dollar against six major currencies, rose on Friday to its highest level since April 2025, according to U.Today. The trigger was US inflation data that came in higher than expected this week. A strong dollar makes assets without interest income less attractive, and XRP and bitcoin are among them.</p>
<p>For investors in euros, the strong dollar works the other way. Because the euro has weakened against the dollar, the XRP price in euros is falling slightly less than in dollars. On Saturday afternoon, XRP stood at €0.87. If you count in euros, you should therefore always cross-check the levels below in your own currency.</p>
<h2 id="xrp-levels-0-77-below-1-00-and-1-09-above">XRP levels: $0.77 below, $1.00 and $1.09 above</h2>
<p>The first level to the upside is the round number of one dollar. A daily close above it would mark the weekend's fall as a false breakdown. If XRP stays below, the former support becomes resistance where sellers are waiting.</p>
<p>The second level is at around $1.09. According to the calculation above, that is where XRP would again match USDC's market value. This level almost coincides with the $1.10 to $1.15 zone that U.Today names as the target of a recovery, and with the $1.12 level from our Friday article.</p>
<p>To the downside, U.Today names $0.77 as the next target if XRP does not steady above one dollar. XRP was last that low in October 2025. From Saturday's level, that is around 20 percent away. In between lies the November 2024 zone, when XRP first rose above one dollar.</p>
<h2 id="our-assessment-without-etf-money-xrp-lacks-the-buyer-for-a-comeback">Our assessment: without ETF money, XRP lacks the buyer for a comeback</h2>
<p>In the newsroom's view, losing fifth place is less a cause for concern in itself than a measurement. It shows that XRP is weaker than bitcoin in this sell-off: minus 26 against minus 19 percent since November 5. The most likely reason lies in the fund data. Since October 29, not a single net dollar has gone into the US funds, and it was exactly this demand that carried XRP in autumn 2025. In our view, a return above $1.09 therefore needs fresh inflows, not just a bitcoin recovery.</p>
<p>The August episode argues against this. Back then, XRP also spent nine days below one dollar and jumped from $0.988 to almost $1.70 within five days. Such jumps are possible for XRP, but they followed a trigger and did not happen on their own. No such trigger exists this weekend yet.</p>
<h2 id="xrp-in-the-red-records-mica-and-thin-weekend-trading">XRP in the red: records, MiCA and thin weekend trading</h2>
<p>Anyone who bought XRP in the past twelve months is almost certainly at a loss at $0.96. How such losses are treated depends on the tax rules of your country; <a href="https://cryptoticker.io/en/comparison/crypto-tax-software/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">crypto tax software</a> keeps track of purchases and sales across all exchanges.</p>
<p>On the buying side, the following applies since the end of the transition period on December 30, 2025: anyone offering crypto-assets in the EU needs authorisation under the European MiCA regulation. Whether your exchange has it is shown in the public register of the European Securities and Markets Authority, ESMA. A selection of authorised providers can be found among the <a href="https://cryptoticker.io/en/comparison/best-regulated-exchange/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">regulated crypto exchanges</a>. Trading is thinner at the weekend. A limit order protects you from a purchase or sale being executed far from the displayed price. If you trade with leverage, be aware that Friday evening's liquidations set in exactly during this thin phase.</p>
<h2 id="xrp-below-one-dollar-only-at-1-09-is-fifth-place-back">XRP below one dollar: only at $1.09 is fifth place back</h2>
<ol>
 <li><strong>Watch the one-dollar mark:</strong> a daily close above $1.00 would be the first sign that the losing streak is ending. Purchases are cheapest through one of the <a href="https://cryptoticker.io/en/comparison/exchange-comparison/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">crypto exchanges in our comparison</a>.</li>
 <li><strong>Document losses:</strong> if you sell XRP at a loss, record the purchase date, price and fees. A <a href="https://cryptoticker.io/en/comparison/crypto-tax-software/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">tax tool</a> pulls together the data from several exchanges.</li>
 <li><strong>Avoid leverage at the weekend:</strong> if you trade XRP with leverage, set the liquidation level far enough away or do without leverage until the first ETF inflow. If you use derivatives anyway, you will find providers among the <a href="https://cryptoticker.io/en/comparison/best-crypto-broker/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">crypto brokers</a>.</li>
