XRP emerged as the biggest gainer in the past 24 hours while the rest of the market drifted lower as buyers stepped back in around $1.43. Bitcoin, ether, solana and dogecoin fell as much as 2%, while the Ripple-linked token gained 1.5%.
• XRP continued to draw steady institutional interest even as broader crypto momentum cooled, with ETF inflows and whale accumulation trends remaining intact.
• Analysts also kept pointing to the same broader setup developing since late April, where repeated tests near resistance gradually tighten the range ahead of a potential breakout move.
• XRP traded between $1.4110 and $1.4473 before settling near $1.435 during the May 14 session.
• Heavy selling near $1.4485 during the previous day established a clear resistance ceiling that capped upside attempts.
