- XRP social sentiment has flipped deeply negative, Santiment said.
- Price is sitting on major weekly support near $1.80.
- Failure to hold support opens downside risk to $1.20 and possibly $0.80.
Data from blockchain analysis platform Santiment shows social media discussion about XRP has turned sharply negative. The ratio of negative to positive posts now sits deep in the fear zone.
In past cycles, this level of pessimism comes right before local price bottoms. Retail doubt tends to peak near exhaustion points, not near tops. When sellers run out, price stabilizes first, then reverses.
The Santiment chart shows this pattern clearly. Every major dip into negative sentiment over the last six months preceded a rebound. The current reading sits near those same historical lows.
XRP Price Analysis: A 200% Move Next?
On the weekly chart, XRP trades around $1.88. This level matches a key horizontal support that held after the last major move.
A clean hold above $1.80 keeps the bullish case alive. A bounce from this area targets $2.30 first, then $2.90. A break above $3 opens the path toward the $3.60 to $4.20 zone, which aligns with prior resistance and Fibonacci extensions.
Failure at $1.80 shifts risk lower. A loss of support points to $1.20 next. Below that, the trendline near $0.80 becomes the final defense. That level also matches long-term demand from the prior cycle base.
Although the MACD line at -0.1648 is below the signal line at -0.0620, the declining red histogram bars indicate that bearish momentum is weakening and selling pressure may be starting to ease.
As per the weekly chart, in the bullish case, XRP could hit the $6 price tag, eventually printing a new all-time high after nearly a decade.
Meanwhile, Ripple has secured conditional approval for a national trust bank charter. RLUSD adoption also continues to expand as policy clarity may improve under the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025.
