Cumulative ETF inflows now total $1.37 billion, while average net assets under management rose to $1.25 billion from $1.14 billion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Retail participation in XRP derivatives also continues to grow. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Futures Open Interest (OI)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> averaged $2.97 billion on Friday, up from $2.90 billion, signaling rising conviction among traders in XRP\u2019s potential to extend an upward trajectory.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Technical outlook: consolidation within the corrective phase<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The XRP\/USD 4-hour chart is bearish and efficient as XRP has lost lost 2.5% of its value in the last 24 hours. XRP trades at $1.43, holding a neutral to mildly constructive bias.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is trading above the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $1.42 while remaining capped beneath the 100-day EMA at $1.49 and the 200-day EMA at $1.70. This configuration suggests an ongoing consolidation within a broader corrective phase.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the bears stay in control, immediate support will emerge at the 50-day EMA around $1.42, with a rising trendline near $1.39 providing a stronger floor. A daily close below $1.39 could expose deeper losses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if the bulls push harder, they would encounter initial resistance at the 100-day EMA at $1.49. A sustained break above this level would open the path toward the 200-day EMA near $1.70, where broader bearish pressure would be challenged.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-364813\" src=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/XRPUSD_2026-05-15_16-51-46.png\" alt=\"XRP\/USD 4H Chart\" width=\"1793\" height=\"836\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The momentum indicator suggests that the bears are slowly regaining control.
