XRP is still trading below its downward trendline and the 8 and 21 week moving averages which puts the overall weekly structure in jeopardy. Purchasers exercise authority because the price cannot reclaim such moving averages and this is an indication of ineffectiveness over medium term momentum. The support area of $1.95 is being tested by Price, and this support area is adjusted to the Fibonacci of 0.5 retracement as well as the 89 week EMA. This area has been a reliable source of support during the year, and it has taken the selling pressure away several times, causing rebounds. This week, XRP tries to fall below this level and the weekly close at hand is particularly noteworthy.
Direction By Weekly Close
Sellers can increase down side motion faster in the event that XRP finishes the week with a price under 1.95. In that case, the price might be having a downward movement to the price ranges of the past demand, which is around the price of 1.60 to 1.25. XRP might nullify the attempt at a break down in the event buyers intervene and repossess $1.95 prior to the weekly close. A good rebound can give a break towards the direction of $2.30, and longer-term rebound goals are around 2.70 in case the trend gains momentum.
Indicators of Momentum Show indecisiveness
On the weekly chart, the RSI is neutral with an RSI of about 50. This reading proves the indecision of the market and makes the validity of the current support test even more important. Bulls and bears are yet to have a decisive edge. At 10.30 am on December 24, 2025 XRP is trading at around 1.86, falling short of the 1.95 mark in the wider year-end selling action. It creates an additional emphasis on whether the buyers would be able to recover the lost positions fast. The traders now observe the close of the weekly candle as the key indicator of the next significant move of XRP. An established breakdown would reinforce continue bearish continuation and a recovery over support would reinitiate bullish anticipations.

XRP Surges 24,602% Despite Ripple's Ongoing Sales — Debate Reignites Over Token Dump Claims
Viral thread claims Ripple sells XRP monthly to fund operations and dilute holders. It cites 100B total supply, 55B locked, 1B/month release, 70–80% relocked, and 200–300M XRP for ops (~$400M/mo); critics say price tracks Bitcoin and escrow dilution fades.
Abstract: The article examines claims that Ripple systematically sells XRP to fund operations, detailing the tokenomics (100B XRP, 55B in escrow with 1B/mo release and relocking, 200–300M for ops) and presenting counterarguments that XRP price movements align more with Bitcoin, not ongoing sales, while escrow shrinkage reduces future dilution and XRP has posted large gains since inception.
