Ripple has been struggling around the $2.10 level recently, testing a key support. Institutional spot ETF funds continue to flow in, but retail enthusiasm is clearly lacking, making this upward push somewhat difficult. From the futures market perspective, open interest has dropped from the weekly high to $4.15 billion, indicating that traders' enthusiasm is indeed cooling down. Technically, the 100-day moving average is forming resistance around $2.22. If market sentiment does not pick up, the $1.77 support below may not hold. The key now is whether institutions will continue to increase their positions or when retail demand can be reactivated.

Haha, stuck again. In the past three years, XRP hasn't had a moment of peace. Institutions are buying, but retail investors are hesitating. It feels like being loved unilaterally, which is quite awkward. Not able to hold 1.77? Don't worry, history has shown us this before. The real opportunity comes when it hits rock bottom.

Institutions are desperately defending the market, while retail investors are pretending to be asleep. This is quite awkward.

Institutions are buying crazily, while retail investors are sleeping. This wave of market movement is truly awkward.

Institutions are playing single-player games, retail has all left, and the buying enthusiasm is really awkward.
