Warning: XRP under threat of deeper collapse to $0.79 support

XRP’s troubled late-2025 run is likely to extend further, with the asset facing the risk of revisiting trading below the $1 level.

In this context, insights from prominent on-chain cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez warned that XRP is showing weakening support below the $1.77 price level, increasing the probability of a deeper corrective move toward the $0.79 zone, according to an X post published on December 20.

Notably, at the current price, XRP remains well below its key moving averages (MA), reinforcing a bearish technical structure.

The 50-day simple moving average near $2.18 and the 200-day SMA around $2.55 are both above the current price, signaling that short- and long-term momentum remains tilted to the downside. This alignment suggests rallies may face resistance unless XRP can reclaim at least the 50-day average.

Meanwhile, the 14-day RSI stands at roughly 41, indicating neutral but weak momentum. While XRP is not yet oversold, the RSI remains below the 50 midpoint, showing that buying pressure is still subdued.
