【If XRP falls to 1.18, who gets hurt first?】
Here’s the bottom line: 1.18 is support, not a business moat. XRP has fallen nearly 18% in a month, and the Fear & Greed Index has dropped to 30, far below its weekly average of 47. Sentiment has already soured, but XRP is still 66% below its high. Being oversold doesn’t mean a reversal is coming.
CoinDesk reports that XRP Ledger developers have proposed zero-XRP wallets: businesses would cover stablecoin reserves for customer and AI-agent accounts, allowing users to make payments without buying XRP first.
In practice, this could indeed reduce friction and expand stablecoin use cases. But the business logic is also brutal: growth in payment volume doesn’t necessarily mean growth in demand for XRP. Wallets, liquidity providers, and businesses could benefit, while the narrative that “every payment consumes XRP” could be undermined.
Across U.S. tech stocks and crypto markets, it still comes down to liquidity: a dovish Fed gives risk assets room to breathe; if policy turns tight, high-beta assets get hit first. BTC dominance is at 59.2%, and capital is still huddling in defensive positions. XRP won’t turn things around on the strength of one news story.
What ordinary investors should really watch is whether XRP can reclaim 1.34, whether zero-XRP wallets can scale, who is willing to pay, and whether they can generate genuine demand for XRP.
If payments can avoid XRP entirely, what value do you think XRP can still capture? What’s your take on this move?
