style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ETF-held assets<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> also climbed to $1.48 billion, highlighting sustained capital rotation into XRP-linked investment products during the latest recovery phase.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This increase arrived while broader crypto markets stabilized after recent volatility, allowing XRP to attract stronger directional positioning from larger investors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ETF inflows usually reflected longer-term conviction instead of speculative short-term trading behavior.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Therefore, the continued increase in institutional exposure suggested that major investors still viewed XRP\u2019s structure favorably despite recent consolidation phases.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">XRP also maintained stability above the reclaimed $1.45 region, reinforcing bullish

74.74% of total positions, while short accounts accounted for only 25.26%, reflecting strong trader confidence in XRP\u2019s recent breakout structure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leveraged participants increasingly favored long exposure as XRP stabilized above former consolidation zones and reclaimed higher resistance levels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trader positioning also remained elevated despite short-term price fluctuations, suggesting that participants still anticipated continuation toward higher price regions. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, heavily one-sided positioning occasionally increased liquidation risks whenever volatility expanded sharply.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_597466\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-597466\" style=\"width: 2048px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a

critical $1.45 resistance zone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Price action also pushed above the descending handle structure, signaling that buyers regained control after several weeks of compression and sideways consolidation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The breakout developed after XRP defended the $1.351 support region before reclaiming higher resistance levels around $1.45 and approaching the $1.55 zone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cup-and-handle structures usually reflected continuation behavior whenever buyers defended higher lows during consolidation periods.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RSI also climbed toward 59.77 while remaining beneath overbought territory, showing that bullish strength continued building without reaching exhaustion conditions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">XRP\u2019s ability to sustain closes above the former
