XRP crashed to the $1.5 level early Monday, shedding nearly 6% in the day’s trading session. The Ripple’s native token has bled more than 22% in a month, erasing all profits it generated since July 2025. Investors who failed to press the sell button when the crypto breached the $3 mark are all under losses. The profit came into their wallets but erased the gains in the span of six months.

Risk-to-Reward Ratio Grows For XRP

Leading cryptocurrency analyst Scott Melker, who is known as the Wolf of All Wall Streets on X, boasting of a following of 1 million, explained that XRP’s price decline provides the best risk-to-reward ratio. This means that buyers could make big profits when the leading altcoin experiences a rebound in price.

However, it also stands the chance of slipping south equally and erasing the invested amount. The risk-to-reward in XRP is equal and stands at a tipping point currently. Only those who can afford to take the risk, as advised, should enter at this point. Traders who cannot stomach the downturn, if things go badly, must stay away from the altcoin.

“Trading exactly at the last meaningful support on the chart before a huge air pocket. For traders, this is about the best risk/reward you get on an asset. Easy to cut loose with a small loss if support fails,” wrote Melker. Bitcoin remains on a slippery slope, and if it falls below the $70,000 mark, XRP could also be in trouble.

Both the bears and bulls are on an equal footing unless Ripple’s altcoin gains major support. If a sharp correction takes place, XRP could fall under the $1 range. However, if the market experiences a rebound, the altcoin could head north towards $1.7 to $2. However, the downturn is higher as the selling activity is high on Monday.
