XRP traded around the middle band, reflecting market indecision and a lack of strong directional momentum. The price remained below the Ichimoku Cloud, which acted as a strong resistance level.

Institutional developments support the long-term outlook. Ripple Treasury is now partnering with NDepth to create a channel connecting XRP to the SWIFT network.
