This time, XRP broke through $2.31, and both institutional funds and on-chain data are hinting at something. Having been in this market for five years, I've seen too many hype-driven pumps and have missed quite a few real opportunities. What's different this time is—the data actually has substance. Capital flows, on-chain activity, and some rarely disclosed market details are all pointing in the same direction. Is this just short-term speculation or the start of a trend? I’ll break it down for you next. No vague jargon—just solid data.

#数字货币市场洞察 $XRP Market anomaly: Over 60% short positions on two exchanges, increasing potential risks Latest data shows that $XRP is experiencing an extreme concentration of short positions on the MEXC and LBank platforms. Shorts account for 61.8% on MEXC and a staggering 66.7% on LBank. Such a one-sided position structure often signals that the market is about to experience significant volatility. Looking at liquidation data, shorts are under sustained pressure. In the past hour, the short liquidation volume was 22 times that of longs; over a 4-hour period, this ratio expands to 52 times. The market is putting real money on the line to prove one thing: when too much capital bets in the same direction, the impact of a reversal is exponentially magnified. On the technical side, XRP is currently quoted at $2.097, just a step away from the key resistance level of $2.10. Historical experience shows that when the price breaks through a dense stop-loss zone, the combined force of technical buying and forced liquidations can create a short-term acceleration. Consider the following framework for trading: Observe whether $2.10 can be effectively breached, or consider positioning in the $2.085-$2.095 range. Potential targets are $2.155-$2.185, and aggressive traders can watch for $2.25-$2.28. Be sure to set $2.070 as the stop-loss line—every strategy needs risk management as a safety net. It is recommended to keep positions under 5% of total capital. The market never lacks opportunities; what’s often missing is the principal to survive until the next one. Data speaks, but the market is always more complex than the data.
