XRP Faces Downside Risk as Social Sentiment Turns Wildly Negative
XRP price is near $2 after experiencing a roughly 31% decline over two months. Social sentiment around XRP has turned sharply negative, with Santiment describing the current environment as a 'fear zone' where negative commentary outweighs positive feedback. This marks the deepest bearish stretch since October.
A spike in negative messaging on November 21 preceded a brief ~22% rebound over the next three days; however, momentum faded soon after. The weakening risk appetite across major assets could continue to push XRP price lower.
Although XRP has held up better than some smaller tokens, it remains sensitive to rapid deleveraging and carry-trade unwinds linked to U.S. data and global risk shifts. Sentiment trends play a crucial role in positioning within retail-heavy markets, making it important to monitor whether sentiment stabilizes or worsens for future market movement.
