XRP just got rejected hard at that $1.43-$1.45 zone again. Price dropped 3.3% down to $1.36 now after the late session break below $1.411 confirmed sellers are still calling the shots. Volume spiked 74% above average during the dump, so this wasn't just random noise—real selling pressure here.

What's interesting is that despite all the weakness, spot ETFs and some whale wallets keep accumulating on these dips. But derivatives activity has cooled way down since late 2025, so leverage is basically unwinding. The technical picture shows XRP stuck in a descending channel with lower highs piling up. Some traders are pointing out there's a potential triangle forming between the resistance above and support below, which usually means a bigger move is coming once this consolidation breaks.

Now everyone's watching the $1.40 level like a hawk. If XRP holds there, we might see another attempt at $1.45 and possibly $1.55, which would be the first real signal the bearish structure is weakening. But if $1.40 cracks, the next support zone sits around $1.33, and if selling really accelerates, we're looking at deeper levels—some analysts are even mentioning the $1.00 area as a potential reset point, which makes you wonder who is on the 1 dollar coin level of support, ha. Either way, short-term momentum still favors the sellers right now.
