XRP has remained stagnant despite the XRPC spot ETF launch, raising questions about what’s next for the asset. A recent tweet by market analyst Steph Is Crypto (@Steph_iscrypto) suggests a potential explanation based on historical data. 🤯
He highlighted a key metric – Relative Unrealized Loss – and pointed out that when it spikes, XRP often bounces back strongly.
Here’s why:
* The metric measures the proportion of XRP held at a price lower than its purchase cost (underwater). Rising values indicate increased pressure on investors. 📈
* Historical data shows a clear correlation: XRP saw a surge between November 2024 and January 2025 when this metric spiked, followed by another spike that pushed the asset to all-time highs. 👀
This recent spike follows the XRPC ETF launch, which generated interest but lacked immediate price volatility.
Steph’s analysis suggests this pattern holds a crucial indication of potential upside: if investors are prepared for this move as they have been before, it could be a positive catalyst for XRP’s future price action. 🚀
However, the current situation may not be the same as past surges due to sustained market volatility following launch.
The timing supports the view that XRP might be at an early stage of a new cycle.
It remains unclear how investors will react to this recent metric spike. Whether it signifies consolidation or a turning point, only time will tell. 🤔
