    XRP cryptocurrency coin in focus with purple gradient grid while Bitcoin and Ethereum fade in background

    XRP price is holding its ground while the rest of the market buckles, as supported by its ETF flow data. XRP ETFs pulled in $8.88 million in the latest session, extending a run that included $18.52 million on May 14 and $10.87 million on May 15, totaling $42 million in net inflows across the past week.

    Bitcoin ETFs, by contrast, shed another $100.9 million in the same session, following a brutal stretch of $648.6 million, $331.1 million, and $290.4 million in consecutive daily redemptions. Ethereum also lost $32.6 million in the latest session.

    Not just ETF flows, XRP has also recorded its fourth-largest daily wallet creation spike of 2025, with 4,300 new addresses added in 24 hours.

    📈 $XRP has had 4,300 new wallets created in 24 hours, the 4th largest spike of 2026. Network growth is among the top leading signals to identify reversals.

    The contrast between XRP inflows and BTC/ETH outflows points to selective rotation as BTC and ETH in fights againts its key supports.

    Can XRP Price Break $1.50 This Week?

    XRP’s price range of $1.36–$1.38 represents a holding pattern. The 7-day picture is less flattering with a -7% drawdown over the past week; the current stabilization is a recovery from a slide, not a continuation of a trend.

    We identify $1.20–$1.25 as the critical support floor, with the $1.50–$1.60 band acting as near-term resistance that XRP has yet to convincingly reclaim.

    Options positioning around the $1.40 level has been flagged as a near-term magnet, suggesting market makers may be keeping price anchored in a tight range heading into June expiry. ETF inflow data is encouraging, but spot volume has been modest, which limits the conviction behind the move.

    The data points to a token in a critical zone, not yet confirming a reversal. Watch the $1.40 level closely.

    Bitcoin Hyper: A Superior Chain

    XRP’s rotation story is compelling, but even a successful breakout to $1.60 from $1.37 would represent just 17% upside. For traders who want the narrative of Bitcoin ecosystem expansion, institutional capital flows, and infrastructure plays without the large-cap ceiling, early-stage presales offer a different risk/reward profile entirely.

    Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is currently in presale at $0.0136, having raised a huge $32 million to date. The project positions itself as the first-ever Bitcoin Layer 2 with Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) integration, targeting sub-second finality and smart contract capability on top of Bitcoin’s security layer, with performance that exceeds Solana.

    A Decentralized Canonical Bridge handles BTC transfers, and staking is live with a high 36% APY for early participants.

    The infrastructure thesis aligns directly with the capital rotation dynamic driving XRP’s current moment. Investors are not abandoning crypto; they are hunting for assets with structural upside that the majors can no longer provide at scale.
