The XRP price chart looks quiet after an 8.8% downturn<\/a> last week, but don\u2019t mistake that for stability. After getting rejected at $3.50, \"xrpXRP \u25b21.94%<\/span><\/span> has been trading in a tight band around $3.00\u2013$3.20.<\/p>\n

If capital continues flowing into derivatives markets it could trigger widespread liquidations on short positions, driving XRP past $3.20 and back toward $3.50.<\/p>\n
