Both Ethereum and Bitcoin saw significant net outflows, while XRP recorded a net inflow.

As of the end of March 2026, the price of XRP fluctuates around $1.32, facing key support. The weekly RSI is close to oversold, indicating a potential rebound.

Ripple Labs announced the introduction of an AI-driven security framework for the XRP Ledger, using machine learning tools to enhance code review and vulnerability detection, aiming to address institutional application security challenges.

The new version will focus on system hardening, highlighting security priorities.

Ripple announced that it will fully roll out artificial intelligence security technologies across the XRP Ledger to detect and fix vulnerabilities and raise security standards. The plan includes adversarial code scanning, threat modeling, and more. Multiple low-severity vulnerabilities have already been identified and fixed.

This set of measures is intended to ensure XRPL’s long-term stability and trustworthiness and attract more institutions to participate.
