XRP Hovers Near $1.29 as Futures Momentum Weakens

XRP was trading near $1.29 as sellers continued to dominate, according to Bitcoin.com News. The report described weakening momentum in the token’s $2.77 billion futures market.

Technical indicators pointed to continued downside pressure. However, oversold readings left open the possibility of a rebound, without confirming a change in direction.

On Polymarket, traders priced in a 50% chance that XRP would reach $1.20 before November. Kalshi’s October contracts also indicated declining price expectations, according to the report.
