$XRP fell below its widely-watched $1 level to 98 cents in Asian morning hours Tuesday, its lowest price since November 2024. The slide came as Ripple, the payments company closely associated with XRP, announced its third Korean partnership of the year, with Jeonbuk Bank becoming the first regional bank in the country to deploy Ripple Payments for cross-border transfers. That followed custody and wallet infrastructure deals with Kyobo Life Insurance and Kbank earlier in 2026. Jeonbuk Bank was founded in 1969 in Jeonju, in Korea's south-west, and is the dominant lender in its home province. In a release shared with CoinDesk, Ripple describes the service as delivering near real-time stablecoin cross-border settlement, without specifying which asset moves the money. $BTC #BTC Price Analysis# #Macro Insights# #Macro Insights#
