XRP has climbed back above the $1.40 mark this week, a level that previously 
acted as resistance, but analysts warn that the rally does not eliminate the 
risk of a deeper pullback. The cryptocurrency’s most critical support zone at 
$1.30 remains under pressure, and broader market forces—particularly Bitcoin’s 
(BTC) price action—could determine what happens next. XRP Locked Between $1.30 
Support And $1.50 Resistance In a recent report, analyst Sam Daodu described 
$1.30 as the most heavily tested support level for XRP so far in 2026. Since 
February, the token has repeatedly slipped into the low $1.30 range, only to 
find buyers stepping in before a decisive breakdown could occur. Related

According to Daodu, a key reason XRP has continued to defend this area is that 
it is slightly lower, around $1.27. On-chain cost basis data indicates that 
roughly 443 million XRP were accumulated at that price level. As the market 
approaches this entry point, many of these holders have added to their 
positions, creating buying pressure that has consistently pushed the price 
back above $1.30. For now, Daodu sees XRP trading within a clearly defined 
range, with $1.30 acting as the floor and $1.50 serving as resistance. The 
analyst said a meaningful shift in trend would require a breakout beyond one 
of those levels, and the direction of that move will likely depend on external 
catalysts. Bitcoin And Middle East Tensions As Key Threats Bitcoin stands out 
as the most significant variable. XRP and BTC are currently moving in close 
alignment, with a reported correlation of 0.84. Historically, XRP has tended 
to magnify Bitcoin’s price swings by roughly 1.8 times. In practical terms, 
that means a 10% decline in Bitcoin could translate into an 18% drop for XRP. 
Daodu cautions that if Bitcoin were to fall below $60,000 again, XRP would 
likely follow, regardless of the token’s individual fundamentals or technical 
structure. Geopolitical factors are also contributing to market fragility. 
Rising tensions in the Middle East have already sparked risk-off sentiment 
across the crypto market in early March. Should the situation worsen, Daodu 
said investors could reduce exposure to more speculative assets first, placing 
additional pressure on altcoins such as XRP. BTC As The Key To Break $1.50? On 
the upside, a sustained breakout above $1.50 would likely require more than 
just stability in Bitcoin. Historically, altcoins gain momentum when Bitcoin 
advances decisively, drawing fresh capital into the broader market. Daodu 
posits that XRP is no exception; a strong upward move in BTC could provide the 
tailwind needed for the altcoin to attempt surpass higher resistance levels.

Happened? Between $1.58 and $1.60 lies a substantial supply zone. 
Approximately 2 billion XRP were purchased at those levels, leaving many 
holders underwater for months. As the price approaches that range, investors 
seeking to exit at breakeven could generate heavy selling pressure, the 
analyst reported. Clearing $1.50 would signal renewed strength, but absorbing 
supply closer to $1.60 may prove to be the more difficult challenge. At the 
time of writing, XRP was trading at $1.41, marking a 3% loss over the previous 
24 hours. Featured image from OpenArt, chart from TradingView.com
