XRP Price Drops to $1.31 Amid ETF Outflows and Weak Trading Volume

• XRP falls to $1.31 as ETF outflows and lower volume signal reduced market demand.
• Break below $1.32 shifts XRP into bearish territory with focus on $1.31 support.
• Ripple’s $12.5T payment network highlights potential despite weak price trend.

XRP price dropped to $1.31 after losing over 3% in 24 hours, as trading activity slowed and demand weakened. The break below $1.32 shifted sentiment bearish, with traders now watching whether the token can hold current support and recover before April ends.

XRP fell to $1.31, with market capitalization dropping to $80.6 billion. Trading volume also declined to $2.01 billion, showing reduced participation. The volume-to-market-cap ratio remained near 2.5%, suggesting moderate liquidity but weaker demand compared to earlier sessions.

Meanwhile, the price drop aligns with weakening investor activity. Exchange-traded fund flows have shown limited accumulation in recent weeks, with the latest session recording outflows of over $2.3 million.

This trend shows reduced demand from institutional-linked products, coinciding with XRP’s inability to sustain upward momentum.

Market observer CRYPTOWZRD noted that a close below $1.32 would place XRP in bearish territory. The token has now moved below that level, shifting attention to whether the current consolidation near $1.31 can hold as support.

Despite the broader decline, XRP has shown signs of stabilization at current levels, with minor recovery attempts forming a short-term base. The next phase of price movement may depend on whether this support zone remains intact over the coming sessions.

Despite short-term weakness, Ripple’s payment network continues to expand. Analyst X Finance Bull said Ripple Treasury connects to over 13,000 banks and 1,000 corporate clients.

These entities reportedly process around $12.5 trillion in annual payments. If even 1% flows through the XRP Ledger, it could represent roughly $125 billion in yearly volume.

Additionally, about 769 million XRP tokens are held in XRP-linked investment products, reducing the available circulating supply.

XRP remains about 64% below its all-time high and nearly 30% down year-to-date. The token has also fallen around 7% over the past week.

The near-term outlook depends on whether XRP can hold the $1.31 support and attract fresh demand. Without stronger inflows, price action may remain weak heading into the end of April.
