XRP's prolonged price weakness is fueling speculation that a potential bottom may be forming. Growing institutional interest through regulated investment products could strengthen sentiment, while improving demand, momentum, and price structure may help confirm whether a broader recovery is beginning.

At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $1.00 with a 24-hour trading volume of $851.49 million and a market capitalization of $63.03 billion. Following the positive momentum, the XRP price structure and ETF growth point to a bullish reversal ahead. (Source: CoinMarketCap)

XRP Price Eyes $3.65 After Major Bottom Signal

According to crypto analyst Ash Crypto, the XRP price has posted another weak weekly close, marking its lowest level on this timeframe in nearly two years and underscoring persistent selling pressure. However, repeated tests of long-term support may signal that sellers are becoming exhausted. If buyers continue defending this zone, XRP could begin forming a durable bottom and lay the groundwork for a potential reversal. (Source: Ash Crypto's X post)

Weekly closes carry particular weight in technical analysis because they filter out intraday and daily volatility, which is why a multi-year low on this timeframe is treated as a structural signal rather than a short-term swing. The $3.65 target also sits above XRP's January 2025 swing high, itself the asset's highest level since its 2018 cycle peak.

Should a breakout occur from the prevailing consolidation pattern, it would be favorable for the XRP price. The presence of high buy volume beyond a critical level of resistance would support a move toward the next higher target, while a strong breakout beyond $3.65 would help set a new all-time high price level.

XRP ETF Gains Attention From $2M Wealth Manager

Separately, data highlighted on X showed that a wealth management firm based in Houston, Texas, has revealed that it holds exposure to the Bitwise XRP ETF, demonstrating increasing interest in XRP among institutional players. The firm reportedly requires a minimum net worth of $2 million from its clients, which makes the disclosure noteworthy. (Source: BankXRP's X post)

The disclosure is yet another indication that XRP is becoming more visible as a choice for professional investors who want a regulated way to invest in cryptocurrencies. Spot XRP ETFs only began trading in the United States in 2025, after the SEC and Ripple ended their multi-year legal dispute that began in December 2020. Because US-listed ETFs publish daily creation and redemption data alongside assets under management, this new wrapper makes institutional positioning in XRP easier to observe than in previous market cycles. While it cannot be assumed that a single investment will lead to an extended run-up in XRP prices, continuous disclosures by wealth management firms might bolster the institutional stance.

Following the bullish price predictions and ETF growth, the XRP price is moving in an upward direction. The move is also supported by improving momentum in the crypto market, as Bitcoin has started to move upward.

What Comes Next?

The XRP price may start recovering if buyers hold on to their positions and momentum picks up. An increased number of institutional players and ETFs could drive demand for XRP, but a break above resistance may be needed to signal an actual reversal. A resumption of selling pressure could delay any recovery. The coming sessions may show whether the long-term support zone continues to hold.
