It now sits below the last one, and some on-chain data suggests more pain is ahead.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"activity-slumps\">Activity Slumps<\/h2>\n<p>Perhaps the most evident reason behind XRP&#8217;s major breakout several weeks ago came from whales. These large market participants &#8216;went crazy&#8217; in their accumulation efforts, <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ripple-whales-go-crazy-as-xrp-price-cant-stop-surging\/\">scooping<\/a> roughly 400 million tokens within a week or so. In addition, network activity spiked, showing increased interest in the token and the blockchain behind it.<\/p>\n<p>The same investors have <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/alicharts\/status\/2098713106251715010\">turned<\/a> on the cross-border token, according to more recent data shared by Ali Martinez. Citing Santiment Intelligence, he noted that the &#8220;pullback appears to be driven in part by profit-taking, with whales selling or redistributing roughly 90 million XRP over the past week.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, such moves from the largest ecosystem participants have a two-fold effect. First, they increase the immediate selling pressure. Second, their example can be followed by retail investors who tend to copy whales.<\/p>\n<p>The second major warning comes from the network activity. Daily active addresses have plunged by over 90% from the peak during the rally of 388,492 to 38,163. According to Martinez, this signals a &#8220;significant drop in participation during the correction.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The analyst added that XRP has found &#8220;critical support&#8221; near $1.35, where 2.29 billion tokens were previously traded. If the asset maintains that level, it could rebound toward $1.60 or even $1.68 next.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"600-rally-in-the-making\">600% Rally in the Making?<\/h2>\n<p>Another popular analyst, Celal Kucuker, was even more optimistic about XRP&#8217;s future. They added that the token&#8217;s rally to its previous all-time high began when it stood 12% below its 50-day moving average. Current data shows that it trades at the same point now.<\/p>\n<p>As such, the cross-border token could reignite another major run if it manages to reclaim the 50-day MA soon. The analyst predicted a massive 600% move based on historical performance and the Fibonacci equality. If Kucuker&#8217;s prediction comes to fruition, it could push XRP to over $9, more than double its current all-time high.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">The previous ATH rally started when XRP was 12% below the 50-day moving average.<\/p>\n<p>We are at the same point now: 12%<\/p>\n<p>Above the 50-day MA = The bull run begins for XRP<\/p>\n<p>If the 13.55% descending channel breaks to the upside, a 600% move could begin based on Fibonacci equality! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Pw6Cwhk6iJ\">pic.twitter.com\/Pw6Cwhk6iJ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Celal Kucuker (@CelalKucuker) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CelalKucuker\/status\/2098439554894062070?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 11, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ripple-xrp-price-outlook-two-key-metrics-are-flashing-warning-signs\/\">Ripple (XRP) Price Outlook: Two Key Metrics Are Flashing Warning Signs<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ripple-xrp-price-outlook-two-key-metrics-are-flashing-warning-signs\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"XRP went on a massive run after the August 19 breakout, surging from the key psychological support at&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":47062,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-47061","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-crypto","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47061","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=47061"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47061\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/47062"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=47061"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=47061"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=47061"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
