XRP Price Holds Firm on Binance as Selling Pressure Faces Absorption Phase
- XRP Open Interest climbs to signal renewed trader activity despite prior liquidation drop from $1.5B to $530M.
- XRP price holds at $2.36 as short pressure grows, showing signs of possible sell-side absorption.
XRP has entered a decisive phase on Binance futures as new data points to a tug-of-war between buyers and sellers. Trading activity has risen in the last month, as various indicators indicate traders are more engaged. The price of XRP is still holding steady even though the market may be bearish. Analysts observing potential price movements have noticed this behavior.
Open Interest Climbs After Sharp Decline
According to an observation by CryptoQuant, Binance futures Open Interest for XRP previously peaked at $1.5 billion. That level marked an all-time high before a significant drop occurred. Leveraged positions were flushed as Open Interest fell to around $530 million. However, recent movements now show a steady rise, indicating that speculative behavior is returning to the market.
The return of capital into futures markets often signals growing risk. Rising Open Interest, paired with stable prices, usually coincides with higher upcoming volatility.
Short Positions Grow as Funding Rate Turns Neutral
The level of funding can show what traders think and feel about the market on platforms like derivatives. XRP futures saw negative interest rates during the last market correction. This development brought a strong rise in short interest, leading to an important short squeeze. The symmetric nature of long and short positions is set by the current neutral funding rate.
Despite neutral funding, short interest has quietly increased again. This has coincided with a gradual upward price move. This combination has triggered a mild short squeeze, with buyers pushing against the mounting sell pressure. As shorts continue to build, price action remains relatively stable.
Sellers Dominate Order Flow, Price Absorption Emerges
At the moment, the Taker Buy/Sell Ratio on Binance shows a value of 0.91. The number suggests that selling is still the main trend at this time. There is a large amount of selling or shorting, by retail traders which is pushing taker flow downward.
Despite the selling volume, the XRP price has not dropped sharply. This dynamic points to a possible absorption of sell orders by larger market participants. In such setups, accumulation often follows strong sell pressure without breakdowns.
Market data from Binance shows that XRP is now in a zone of rising speculation. A deeper analysis on the price by CoinMarketCap as of the latest indicates that XRP is priced at $2.36 after dropping 2.00% in the last 24 hours. Market cap stands at $138.49 billion.
Trading volume fell by 39.43% to $3.31 billion within the same period. The circulating supply is 58.62 billion XRP. The price fluctuated between $2.39 and $2.34 during the day. Volatility was observed during the Asian trading session, with selling pressure increasing afterward.
