- •XRP last traded at $1.29, down 0.73% over 24 hours, with a market capitalization of $81.77 billion and daily trading volume of $1.16 billion, a figure down 22.72%.
- •Spot exchange-flow data showed outflows exceeding inflows on many days from December through October, while October recorded a positive netflow spike approaching $40 million.

XRP fell 6.06% between October 10 and October 16, recording the largest weekly decline among six major cryptocurrencies tracked over the period. All six assets in the comparison closed the window lower, so the ranking measures degrees of decline across a broadly weaker week rather than separating gainers from losers. Exchange outflows appeared repeatedly in recent months, while a positive netflow spike approaching $40 million emerged in October. By the latest reading, XRP traded at $1.29, down 0.73% over 24 hours, as Bitcoin held up comparatively better.
XRP Trails Five Major Peers
According to Crypto Dyl News (X post), XRP declined 6.06% from October 10 to October 16, 2026. Over the same window, Bitcoin fell 1.25%, Ethereum lost 2.60%, BNB declined 2.83%, Solana dropped 4.35%, and Dogecoin slipped 5.22%.
Bitcoin's weekly decline came in nearly 5 percentage points lighter than XRP's, while Dogecoin came closest to matching the asset, losing 0.84 percentage points less. Of the six assets listed, XRP recorded the weakest weekly result. Leaderboards of this kind are a standard barometer of relative strength: when every name in the cohort declines, the gaps between them show where weakness ran deepest.
Market data (CoinMarketCap) showed XRP down 0.73% over the previous 24 hours at $1.29, with a market capitalization of $81.77 billion and daily trading volume of $1.16 billion — a figure that was down 22.72%.
An hourly comparison against Bitcoin — the market's largest cryptocurrency by capitalization and a common baseline for such charts — showed XRP falling sharply around 4:00 PM, with relative performance briefly dropping below minus 2% before a partial rebound. Bitcoin recovered more firmly, leaving XRP below its performance line for much of the session.
Exchange Flows Point to Repeated Outflows
Spot-flow data (Coinglass) tracking daily XRP exchange inflows and outflows from December through October shows red bars — days when outflows exceeded incoming deposits — appearing frequently. Some of the deepest negative readings occurred in January, with further withdrawals surfacing in subsequent months.
Green bars, marking days when deposits exceeded withdrawals, appeared at intervals across the chart, including January, March, May, August, September, and October. The largest visible October spike approached $40 million.
The exchange breakdown places Binance at $859.34 million, Upbit at $585.80 million, and Coinbase at $478.99 million, with Kraken, OKX, Bybit, and other platforms also included. Binance, Upbit, and Coinbase rank among the industry's largest spot venues, giving the breakdown representation across global, Korean, and United States trading hubs. Opposing flow directions are identified in the selected views by colored blocks.
The figures shown on the two panels are not directly comparable, as they use different scales. Exchange transfers can reflect several types of activity rather than simple plans to buy or sell, and flow data alone cannot establish what individual holders intend to do.
Recovery Remains Unconfirmed
The price line shows XRP declining through much of the period. The asset approached $0.90 in August before climbing toward $1.50 later that month, then moved unevenly in a range of roughly 1.30–1.50 ahead of the latest weakness.
Repeated exchange outflows may reduce the amount of XRP readily available for trading, though withdrawals do not prove that holders intend to retain their coins. The occasional inflow spikes also show that deposits continue despite the frequent negative readings.
Both the weekly performance and the hourly comparison with Bitcoin show relative weakness. A sustained price recovery would help establish whether buyers are returning; until then, the recent losses remain the clearest evidence of XRP's position against its major peers.
Trading volume merits attention following the reported 22.72% daily decline. Lower activity does not mean prices will necessarily move lower, and higher volume paired with stronger buying would offer firmer evidence of renewed demand.
For now, XRP recorded the largest weekly loss in the tracked comparison. Bitcoin's smaller decline and the mixed exchange-flow readings provide context for the move. The near-term markers to follow include whether October's inflow spike proves to be an isolated event or the start of a different flow pattern, and whether XRP's hourly line against Bitcoin regains its footing — outcomes that will depend on subsequent trading rather than the weekly figures alone.
