XRP Unfazed by Bitcoin Downturn, Eyeing Opportunity to Become 2026’s Leading Cryptocurrency
XRP is rapidly emerging as a new market leader in the cryptocurrency space, demonstrating exceptional resilience despite downward pressure from Bitcoin (BTC).
According to cryptocurrency-focused media outlet BeInCrypto on February 11 (local time), XRP has recorded clear relative strength against Bitcoin and successfully broken out of a technical bottom range. Data analysis from analytics platform Santiment shows that the Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio has entered negative territory—considered an opportunity zone—signaling a strong buy indication. Historically, declines in the MVRV indicator have typically been interpreted as classic bottom-confirmation signals appearing just before price rebounds.
On-chain metrics also clearly capture a capitulation phase among investors. Recently, realized losses among XRP investors totaled $321 million, indicating that market fear has peaked and selling pressure has largely been absorbed. Following large waves of realized losses, prices have historically tended to stage sharp V-shaped recoveries, further raising expectations among market participants.
Aggressive accumulation by whales is another factor strengthening price support. The proportion of large wallets holding between 10 million and 100 million XRP has continued to increase even during the market correction, suggesting that major players view current price levels as an attractive buying opportunity. In particular, pro-crypto policies under U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration and progress on the U.S. cryptocurrency market structure bill (CLARITY) have become decisive factors prompting institutional investors to select XRP as a core asset.
From a technical analysis perspective, multiple positive signals for a price recovery are emerging. Key indicators such as the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) are exiting oversold territory and attempting to shift into an upward trend. If XRP maintains its current support level, it is expected to break through resistance between $1.60 and $1.80 in the short term and enter a full-fledged rally.
As capital flows in the crypto market shift from Bitcoin to leading altcoins, changes in market dynamics are accelerating. Following Trump’s election, increased preference for assets with greater legal clarity is expected to support further expansion of XRP’s market share for the time being. Market participants are closely monitoring whale accumulation price levels and on-chain liquidity trends while focusing on strategic asset allocation in preparation for a potential large-scale uptrend.
