XRP support held only after a fast weekend breakdown, a sign that dip buyers remain active but not yet in control. XRP briefly lost the $1.14 support area on Sunday, fell to roughly $1.12, then rebounded toward $1.15 within hours, according to CoinDesk.
The move mattered because sellers hit the token near a level traders were already watching. CoinDesk reported that selling accelerated around 21:00 UTC, when volume jumped to 85.8 million XRP and pushed price to a session low near $1.1213.
XRP support breaks near $1.14, then snaps back into the weekend range
The bullish read is that buyers absorbed the break before it became a deeper slide. XRP fell from $1.1451 to $1.1383 during the 24-hour session, a decline of roughly 0.6%, but the intraday damage looked worse than the closing move. The token briefly broke below $1.1385, which CoinDesk described as significant because it came on the largest volume spike of the session.
That breakdown did not hold. Buyers pushed XRP back toward $1.148, recovering nearly 80% of the decline and returning the token to the middle of its recent range. That kind of rebound shifts the focus from the break itself to the speed of the response.
The counterpoint is straightforward: a support break is still a warning. XRP remains inside the same broad $1.10-$1.30 range that has contained price action for most of June, and analysts remain split between calling that range a base-building phase or a continuation pattern inside a larger downtrend.
XOOMAR analysis: The rebound keeps the range alive, but it doesn't confirm accumulation by itself. A real shift would require follow-through above nearby resistance, not just a fast repair after a failed breakdown.
| XRP level | Latest signal | Trading read |
|---|---|---|
| $1.1213 | Session low | Sellers forced the deepest weekend test |
| $1.13-$1.14 | Immediate battleground | Failed breakdown, but still vulnerable |
| $1.147-$1.15 | Rebound stalled | Short-term resistance remains intact |
| $1.10-$1.30 | Monthlong range | No clear directional break yet |
Weekend selling tested XRP buyers, but the failed breakdown cuts both ways
The strongest part of the recovery is where it happened: inside the $1.10 to $1.15 support zone. CoinDesk said the failure to hold below $1.13 suggests buyers remain active in that broader support area. That gives traders a cleaner level to judge the next move.
Weekend crypto sessions can make moves look sharper when order books are less forgiving, but the source does not prove liquidity alone caused XRP's drop. The verified point is narrower and more useful: the selling wave came with heavy volume, broke a watched level, then got absorbed quickly. That is a stronger signal than a slow drift lower on weak participation.
For active traders, the distinction between a chart level and actual execution quality matters. We covered that same problem in CEX vs DEX Altcoin Trading Hides Costly Trade-Offs, where venue choice can change slippage, fill quality, and risk during fast altcoin moves.
Still, the rebound doesn't erase the failed hold near $1.14. It only shows that sellers did not yet have enough force to keep XRP below the support zone. If the next break below $1.13 draws another volume surge without the same immediate bid, the weekend recovery will look less like accumulation and more like a pause before another test lower.
XOOMAR analysis: The cleanest argument for buyers is not price alone. It is price plus timing. XRP recovered within hours, before the breakdown could reset the broader $1.10-$1.30 range.
XRP traders face a narrow retest zone between $1.14 support and $1.15 resistance
The next test is whether XRP can hold $1.14 when sellers come back, not whether it can briefly trade above it. The rebound stalled around $1.147-$1.149, reinforcing $1.15 as short-term resistance. That leaves XRP pinned between a defended support zone and a ceiling that buyers have not yet cleared.
A low-volume bounce would be less convincing than a recovery backed by sustained buying. CoinDesk's figures already show why volume matters here: the sharpest downside push came with 85.8 million XRP changing hands around the selling acceleration. If buyers want the rebound to carry weight, the next push toward $1.15 needs participation, not just a thin retrace.
Risk controls also matter when a level breaks and reverses this quickly. The same lesson shows up in Loss Limits Expose the Best Copy Trading Platforms: fast markets punish traders who treat support levels as guarantees instead of decision points.
The broader crypto tape is a swing factor, but not an explanation for this specific XRP move. If Bitcoin or major altcoins weaken, XRP's defended support zone could face another stress test. If majors stabilize and XRP reclaims $1.15 with volume, the rebound starts to look less defensive.
For now, the practical read is narrow. XRP needs to hold $1.13-$1.14 on the next retest and push through $1.147-$1.15 to show follow-through. A sustained move outside $1.10-$1.30 remains the signal traders are waiting for.

The Bottom Line
- XRP’s fast rebound shows dip buyers are still active near key support.
- The failed breakdown does not confirm a bullish reversal without follow-through above resistance.
- The token remains stuck inside its broader $1.10-$1.30 June range.
