1.7 Billion XRP Tokens Accumulated at This Make-or-Break Level

The $2.81 level currently serves as the key support for the XRP token, according to Glassnode data.  

Roughly 1.7 billion tokens have been accumulated at that level. 

Why supply density matters 

The analysis is based on the XRP cost basis distribution heatmap from Glassnode, which shows at which specific level holders accumulated their tokens. 

Glassnode claims that this visualization provides a clearer view of the correlation between specific price levels and accumulated supply density. Such data can be useful for identifying potential support and resistance levels. 

The heatmap shows that another major supply cluster is located at the $3.26 level. More than 1.05 billion tokens had been accumulated at the above-mentioned level. 

For comparison, a mere 2.9 million tokens have been accumulated in the $3.57-$3.58 range, Glassnode data shows. 

XRP’s anemic performance 

After recording stellar gains in the first half of July, XRP has been struggling to revive its bullish momentum. 

According to CoinGlass data, XRP derivatives recorded a 44% drop in trading volume and an 82% drop in open interest (OI). 

The Ripple-linked alternative cryptocurrency is currently down 15% from its current all-time high of $3.67, which was logged on July 18.
