- Ripple broadened its Asian network as SBI Remit linked with Tottori Bank and announced a cybersecurity-focused alliance with Project Eleven.

Institutional inflows and Asia expansion drive renewed large-holder accumulation
Spot XRP ETF products are approaching $1 billion in total assets under management after recording seven consecutive days of net inflows, with Goldman Sachs leading a $65 million investment in April and contributions to the Bitwise XRP ETF and Franklin Templeton XRPZ fund. Large holders accumulated around $500 million in XRP tokens during this period. Ripple has expanded its network in Asia as SBI Remit in Japan added Tottori Bank as a partner and announced a partnership with Project Eleven to enhance quantum protection for the XRP Ledger through 2028.
Mixed momentum persists as support zones form below rising price
The MA-20 is at $1.3717 and MA-50 at $1.3860, with both sitting below the current price, while the MA-200 is significantly higher at $1.8701. The Ichimoku Kijun on the daily chart is positioned at $1.3944, providing immediate support below market levels. Momentum indicators show the MACD and RSI on the daily timeframe remain in buy territory, but the ADX is neutral, signaling limited conviction behind the current move. Additional signals such as Stoch RSI and CCI show the market is in a neutral-to-moderately overbought setup, with higher timeframes increasingly overbought; BBP is positive, and the Awesome Oscillator maintains an upward tilt.
Sideways trading expected as low breakout odds temper volatility
For the next five trading days, XRP is likely to trade within a volatility band ranging from $1.36 to $1.51. The probability of an upward breakout above $1.51 is low, but if achieved, a bullish scenario would be confirmed with potential for further gains. If XRP falls below immediate support at $1.39, downside risk increases, opening a move toward $1.36 or lower. The baseline scenario favors sideways action between $1.39 and $1.51, with moderate volatility.
Earlier, analysts noted that XRP was demonstrating notable strength compared to its larger peers, supported by rising institutional inflows and expanding utility. The current analysis reinforces this narrative, with expanding ETF participation and ongoing accumulation by major holders indicating that XRP remains well-positioned, but traders should closely monitor the $1.39 support and $1.51 resistance as signals for the next decisive move.
