XRP clawed back $30 billion in market value after last week’s tariff-driven collapse, ripping from $2.37 to $2.58 on explosive institutional volume. The rebound printed one of the year’s heaviest sessions, confirming aggressive dip-buying as traders reposition ahead of fresh macro headlines.
The recovery follows a 50 % wipe-out triggered by President Trump’s 100 % China-tariff declaration, which wiped $19 billion in crypto liquidations in minutes. Renewed buying has since restored confidence, with analysts eyeing a potential record weekly close above $3.12 that would mark XRP’s strongest candle since inception. Broader markets remain risk-off—Dow –900, Nasdaq –820—but crypto desks flagged selective institutional inflows into XRP.
Structure now shows a clean ascending channel: $2.37 base, $2.59 lid. Sustained closes above $2.59 could open $2.70–$2.75, while failure to defend $2.50 risks retrace toward $2.42. Momentum remains bullish with institutional prints leading each breakout leg. Analysts highlight the breakout above $2.57 as confirmation of a near-term trend reversal; continued volume support keeps upside bias intact.
