CoinGecko shows XRP has plunged to $1.43, down from about $3.5 in mid‑2025. On‑chain selling and mounting losses have pushed many holders into capitulation.
Glassnode reported long‑term holders increased daily spending by about 580%, rising from roughly $38 million to $260 million. The firm also flagged SOPR readings dropping below 1, indicating average realized losses on sales.
About 41% of XRP supply now sits underwater while the realized price averages near $1.48. Supply in profit fell to roughly 58.5% by mid‑November, and weekly losses can range from about $500 million to $1.2 billion when XRP retests the $2 area (Ed. note: SOPR below 1 often signals capitulation).
Ripple outlined an institutional DeFi roadmap to enable on‑chain credit and global payments. Garlinghouse said “XRP family has and always will be top of mind for Ripple.” Legal advocate Fred Rispoli pushed back, writing “SHOW ME YOUR LOVE THROUGH ACTIONS BRAD NOT WORDS.”
Analysts’ price targets cited in the market span roughly $3 to $8, with some models projecting $5 to $15 by year‑end if conditions stabilize. Investors now face decisions to sell or hold as on‑chain metrics echo past consolidation phases while regulatory clarity and fundamentals differ from 2022.
