Following a recent drop that wiped out gains since July 2025, XRP is currently trading at $1.49, showing a 5.72% recovery in the last 24 hours. However, the accumulated decline over the past 30 days (-27.21%) highlights the pressure facing the altcoin, indicating a critical moment for investors looking to define their exposure.

Analyst Scott Melker points out that XRP’s current level presents a balanced risk-reward ratio, suggesting a symmetrical potential: an equal chance of profit or loss depending on how the market evolves. “This is a point where the potential reward justifies the risk taken,” the expert states, considering the current dynamics.

The pressure on Bitcoin around the $70.03K zone is a key factor to monitor, as sustained weakness in the leading digital asset could drag XRP to lower levels. Conversely, if Bitcoin manages to recover and break key resistances, the reward for XRP holders could materialize with a move toward the $1.70 to $2.00 range, offering a significant opportunity for those holding positions at these depressed levels.
