The token is up 1% for the day but remains 4% lower for the week. Earlier, it spiked from $2.92 in a quick rally that lifted it before traders locked in some gains.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Roughly $4.25 billion worth of XRP changed hands over the same period. That is about 15% less than the previous day, showing trading activity cooled after the initial surge. Even with the decline, XRP stayed among the most traded large-cap digital assets.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Market Share and Analyst Remarks<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">XRP now represents 5% of the total crypto market. That share is a long way from the 30% it once held. Charts show the token recently bounced from a support level near 4.6% after briefly breaking above 5.5%. Buyers defended that level and kept the market share from sliding further.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24XRP&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">$XRP<\/a> Dominance chart is a sleeper no one\u2019s talking about.<br \/>\nAt one point, XRP held 30% of the entire crypto market \u2014 now it\u2019s hovering just under 5%.<\/p>\n<p>That kind of drop-off doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s dead.
