Since February, the token has repeatedly slipped into the low $1.30 range, only to find buyers stepping in before a decisive breakdown could occur.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to Daodu, a key reason XRP has continued to defend this area is that it is slightly lower, around $1.27. On-chain cost basis data indicates that roughly 443 million XRP were accumulated at that price level.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As the market approaches this entry point, many of these holders have added to their positions, creating buying pressure that has consistently pushed the price back above $1.30.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For now, Daodu sees XRP trading within a clearly defined range, with $1.30 acting as the floor and $1.50 serving as resistance. The analyst said a meaningful shift in trend would require a breakout beyond one of those levels, and the direction of that move will likely depend on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/crypto\/cftc-chair-says-crypto-perps-approval-is-close-why-this-is-huge-for-hyperliquid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">external catalysts<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin And Middle East Tensions As Key Threats<\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin stands out as the most significant variable. XRP and BTC are currently moving in close alignment, with a reported correlation of 0.84. Historically, XRP has tended to magnify Bitcoin\u2019s price swings by roughly 1.8 times.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In practical terms, that means a 10% decline in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/mara-revises-bitcoin-treasury-strategy-opens-door-to-selling-3-5-billion-in-btc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">Bitcoin <\/a>could translate into an 18% drop for XRP. Daodu cautions that if Bitcoin were to fall below $60,000 again, XRP would likely follow, regardless of the token\u2019s individual fundamentals or technical structure.<\/p>\n<p>Geopolitical factors are also contributing to market fragility. Rising tensions in the Middle East have already sparked risk-off sentiment across the crypto market in early March.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Should the situation worsen, Daodu said investors could reduce exposure to more speculative assets first, placing additional pressure on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/bnb\/bnb-chain-rolls-out-production-ready-ai-agent-tools-with-live-on-chain-capabilities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">altcoins <\/a>such as XRP.<\/p>\n<p>BTC As The Key To Break $1.50?<\/p>\n<p>On the upside, a sustained breakout above $1.50 would likely require more than just stability in Bitcoin. Historically, altcoins gain momentum when Bitcoin advances decisively, drawing fresh capital into the broader market.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Daodu posits that XRP is no exception; a strong upward move in BTC could provide the tailwind needed for the altcoin to attempt surpass <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/bitcoin-prints-fifth-straight-red-month-previous-streak-was-followed-by-300-surge\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">higher resistance levels<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Between $1.58 and $1.60 lies a substantial supply zone. Approximately 2 billion XRP were purchased at those levels, leaving many holders underwater for months.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As the price approaches that range, investors seeking to exit at breakeven could generate heavy selling pressure, the analyst reported. Clearing $1.50 would signal renewed strength, but absorbing supply closer to $1.60 may prove to be the more difficult challenge.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/kovAJAln\/\" alt=\"XRP\" width=\"1814\" height=\"981\" \/><\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, XRP was trading at $1.41, marking a 3% loss over the previous 24 hours.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Featured image from OpenArt, chart from TradingView.com\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>XRP has climbed back above the $1.40 mark this week, a level that previously acted as resistance, but analysts warn that the rally does not eliminate the risk of a deeper pullback.\u00a0 The cryptocurrency\u2019s most critical support zone at $1.30 remains under pressure, and broader market forces\u2014particularly Bitcoin\u2019s (BTC) price action\u2014could determine what happens next.
