XRP Drops 72 Percent From Peak as Traders Track Key Technical Retracement Level
XRP traded around $1.39 after surrendering most of its advance from late 2024, bringing chart levels into focus.
XRP traded near $1.39 on October 9, 2026, marking a 62% decrease from its all-time high of $3.65 reached in July 2025 and an approximate 9% decline over the trailing week. From its base of $0.50 in November 2024, the token had gained $3.15 before shedding $2.26, which represents a retracement of roughly 72% of that advance.
Market participants are monitoring the $1.17 threshold, which corresponds to a 78.6% Fibonacci retracement of the broader rally, following a drop below the 61.8% level at $1.70. The report notes that clustered buy orders near such technical markers can either stem declines or lead to steeper drops if exhausted.
XRP's market valuation stood at roughly $88 billion, reflecting scheduled token releases from Ripple's escrow accounts that increased circulating supply since 2024. The token previously traded near $1.05 in late June 2026 before rising 46% to reach $1.53 by late September.
These two are not the same thing, and one does not produce the other. The left is how this single article reads, from its tone alone. The right is the site’s own call on the asset, from indicators and analysis. Press tone feeds no score and no signal: on the only corpus this site has measured, daily tone tracked the move that had already happened and showed no measurable link with what followed.
