XRP’s Monthly Relative Strength Index Hits All-Time Low, Signaling Potential Oversold Conditions
The XRP monthly relative strength index (RSI) has plunged to 41.64, marking the lowest reading this indicator has ever registered for the cryptocurrency. This figure dips below the previous low of 43.75, recorded in March 2020, a period when XRP bottomed out at $0.11 amidst one of the crypto market’s most severe downturns.
A Signal With A Caveat
While the current reading surpasses the 2020 low, it is not yet definitive. The month of June remains open, and data indicates that if XRP manages to recover to above $1.30 before the month concludes, the RSI could finish significantly higher than its current level, thereby diminishing the importance of this signal.
Austin, a commentator within the XRP community who uses that moniker, was the first to publicly highlight the RSI’s decline. His initial chart indicated a drop to 42.64, which at the time was a new all-time low, as XRP slid to $1.18. Prices have since fallen further, pushing the RSI down to 41.62 at the latest check. The token is currently trading around $1.11, approximately 61% below its October 2025 peak of $2.84. This decline has persisted for several months without a substantial recovery.
What History Suggests
The 2020 episode provides a point of comparison, though it is a singular instance. The RSI bottom in that year coincided with what proved to be XRP’s price floor for that cycle. From that low, the token subsequently posted a series of higher lows, eventually reaching $1.96 in April 2021. A subsequent surge in November 2024 propelled it to a high of $3.40, representing a gain of roughly 580% from the October lows of that year.
The broader cryptocurrency market has also experienced pressure this week. Bitcoin saw a decline towards the $63,000 mark after MicroStrategy, the firm associated with Michael Saylor, confirmed the sale of 32 BTC from its holdings exceeding 800,000 BTC. The total cryptocurrency market capitalization shed $330 billion over the past week.
XRP’s Own Decline In Focus
XRP’s market capitalization fell from $82.5 billion at the beginning of this week to approximately $69 billion at the time of writing, a decrease of roughly 15%. Reports indicate that the current price of $1.10 revisits levels last observed in early February.
The RSI measures the speed and magnitude of recent price changes. A reading below 30 is traditionally considered oversold territory. XRP’s monthly reading of 41.64 remains above this threshold, though it represents a historically low level specifically for the token. The ultimate significance of this signal will depend on where the June candle closes in relation to its current RSI reading.
