The monthly relative strength index for XRP has fallen to 41.64, the lowest reading ever recorded for the token. This surpasses the 43.75 level hit in March 2020, when XRP bottomed at $0.11 during one of crypto’s worst bear markets.
However, the signal comes with a caveat. June is still open, and if XRP recovers above $1.30 before month-end, the RSI could close above its current level, potentially negating the historical significance.
XRP commentator Austin was the first to highlight the drop publicly. The token now trades around $1.11, roughly 61% below its October 2025 high of $2.84.
History offers a comparison. In 2020, the RSI bottom aligned with the price floor for XRP in that cycle. From that low, XRP eventually reached $1.96 in April 2021, and surged to $3.40 by November 2024 - a 580% gain from later lows.
Broader crypto markets are under pressure this week. Bitcoin dropped toward $63,000 after Strategy, the firm tied to Michael Saylor, sold 32 BTC from its holdings. Total crypto market cap shed $330 billion in a week.
XRP’s market cap fell from $82.5 billion to roughly $69 billion. The current price near $1.10 revisits levels last seen in early February.
RSI measures the speed and size of recent price changes. A reading below 30 is traditionally oversold territory. XRP’s monthly reading at 41.64 sits above that threshold but is historically low for the token. Whether the June candle closes near its current RSI will determine if the signal holds.
