Social sentiment for XRP has fallen to its third-worst level in two years, according to data from analytics firm Santiment. The company notes that such extreme bearishness has historically preceded short-term price recoveries, with two prior instances in February and October 2025 followed by notable rallies. XRP’s price has declined approximately 63% over the last nine months.
Retail sentiment for XRP has dropped to its third-worst level in two years, according to new social data. The analytics firm Santiment stated that with the token losing about 63% of its value over nine months, conversations have become increasingly bearish.
Santiment flagged the latest mood on April 13, noting the ratio of positive to negative comments had dipped into what it called the FUD zone. “Historically, when bullish comments get replaced by this level of bearish ones, the probability of a relief rally climbs significantly higher,” wrote the Santiment team.
The firm gave examples of two prior instances when extreme negative readings were followed by notable upticks in February and October 2025. In both instances, the token bounced back soon after, with analysts describing the post-February recovery as “BIG.”
The background is a token that has had a bruising run since setting an all-time high of $3.65 in July 2025. At the time of writing, the token was trading around $1.33, down more than 5% in the past 30 days and nearly 64% below its peak.
However, on the ETF front, spot XRP funds recorded their strongest single day of inflows since February 6 on April 10, pulling in more than $9 million. The total for last week came to about $11.75 million in net inflows, reversing a stretch of zero reported activity.
On the technical side, chart watchers are keeping an eye on $1.39 as a line to reclaim to change the short-term trend. Another analyst noted that a bounce from the $1.32 support, paired with a meaningful move for Bitcoin, could trigger a more substantial rally.
