  • XRP is stuck in a tight trading range, unable to break above the $2.25 resistance, with weak bullish momentum and strong selling pressure near key levels.
  • The Ripple vs. SEC lawsuit remains the main catalyst, with a crucial update expected by June 9 that could determine the token’s next big move. A dropped appeal by the SEC might trigger a major rally.
  • Traders are watching key support at $2.15 and resistance at $2.35, with broader movement hinging on legal clarity. Until then, XRP is likely to stay range-bound.

XRP’s been stuck lately. Like… really stuck. The token’s been bouncing between tight levels, with $2.25 acting like a stubborn ceiling that just won’t budge. Even with a few short-lived price pops, things haven’t exactly taken off. And with Ripple still locked in its never-ending legal scuffle with the SEC, the market’s feeling kinda twitchy.

Resistance, Support… Repeat

Right now, XRP’s just sorta hovering. Not tanking, not rallying. It’s holding on around the $2.15–$2.17 range, which is shaping up to be a pretty crucial support zone. If that breaks down? You’re probably looking at a trip toward $2.00—or even $1.95 if things get shaky.

Climbing back up won’t be easy either. There’s resistance at $2.35, then a stronger wall between $2.45 and $2.50. Unless something big shakes up the charts, XRP’s probably just gonna hang out here for a while.

SEC vs. Ripple: Still the Big Plot Twist

Of course, the elephant in the room is the Ripple-SEC case. That whole legal mess has been hanging over XRP’s head for what feels like forever, and it still ain’t settled.

But, hey, June 9 could change the game. That’s when the SEC’s supposed to drop a status update on any settlement talks. Some folks are even whispering about a “Sunshine Act” notice showing up early—basically, the SEC hinting it might drop the whole appeal and finally let Ripple breathe.

If that happens? It’s bullish, no question. Some analysts are eyeing a quick 20% jump, while the real optimists are throwing around 3x price targets. That’s a big “if” though… and time’s tight.

Mixed Signals for What’s Next

So what’s the vibe? Honestly, it’s murky. If Ripple catches a break legally, XRP could easily break out of this slump. But if the legal stuff drags on, or worse—if the SEC goes full pitbull again—expect more of this sideways action. Maybe even a dip.

With the charts looking a bit meh, and momentum barely holding on, XRP could either hang tight or go totally off-script depending on how the court drama plays out.

$XRP really looking forward for this upward continuation! Soon the extensive move will form to make this one a double-digits crypto. Target is the same since before it broke out => around $12.#Elliottwave #XRP pic.twitter.com/z0LzNl5irL

Key Levels to Keep an Eye On

  • Support zones: $2.15–$2.17 (key), $2.00, $1.95
  • Resistance zones: $2.35, then $2.45–$2.50

A drop under $2.15 might trigger some panic selling. But if XRP somehow punches through $2.35? That could wake the bulls.

Final Thoughts: Big Moves or More Drift?

In short: XRP’s just kinda… waiting. The legal case is the main driver right now, and it could either light the rocket or keep dragging things sideways. If the SEC calls it quits, XRP’s got room to run. But until then, this range-bound action may stick around a bit longer.

Eyes on June 9. That’s the big one. Until then? Buckle up.
