XRP price is trading at $1.16–$1.18, up more than 2% today, while Bitcoin consolidates below key resistance and Solana drifts without a clear prediction. The split is sharp enough to demand attention.

The rally was not much, but the weekly drawdown is less than 8%, outperforming Bitcoin 10% and Solana 16%.

Macro headwinds, like stubborn Fed rate-cut and risk-off positioning are suppressing the wider market. XRP is simply absorbing those headwinds better than its peers right now.

XRP Price Prediction: $1.35 or Does the Retrace Come First?

XRP is pressing against immediate resistance at $1.18, with the next meaningful ceiling at $1.21 and then $1.26. A clean break above $1.26 opens the path toward $1.37, which our analyst flags as the first major resistance level on a longer timeframe.

Support layers sit at $1.10, $1.06, and $1.03. Our technical team warns that a retrace to $0.47 is possible in a worst-case scenario if macro conditions deteriorate sharply, though that would represent a deep flush with a very low chance.

If XRP can hold above $1.18, it could as well reclaim $1.26, and Clarity Act catalyst could push a run toward $1.6. Although price could likely consolidate between $1.10 and $1.21 over the next week as macro noise persists, building a tighter coil for the next move.

But a close below $1.0 would break the post-breakout structure entirely and likely drag XRP back toward the $0.90 range. Relative to Bitcoin, XRP still holds a performance edge, but that edge narrows quickly if risk appetite deteriorates further.

Longer-dated targets remain aggressive: AI-driven scenarios project $5 by late 2025 via a $2.20 interim level, while community analysts openly discuss $4–$7 by year-end.

LiquidChain Targets Early-Mover Upside as XRP Tests Key Levels

XRP’s outperformance makes the bull case feel obvious. But at a current price of above a dollar with resistance stacked immediately overhead, the asymmetric window may already be narrowing. That’s where early-stage infrastructure plays attract attention.

LiquidChain is an L3 infrastructure project currently in presale at $0.01468 per $LIQUID token, with $830K raised to date. Its core proposition is a Unified Liquidity Layer that fuses Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana liquidity into a single execution environment. Developers deploy once and access all three ecosystems simultaneously.

Single-Step Execution and Verifiable Settlement are the two architectural features that differentiate it from existing cross-chain bridges, which typically fragment liquidity rather than consolidate it. The addressable market is real: fragmented liquidity across BTC, ETH, and SOL chains is one of the most persistent inefficiencies in the current infrastructure stack.

Research LiquidChain before the presale concludes.
