The post Why Is XRP Price Down Today? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Crypto prices today are largely moving sideways, with several altcoins slipping into the red. Among the top losers is XRP, which has dropped nearly 4% in the past 24 hours and is now trading around $2.09. While the broader market is showing signs of fatigue, XRP’s decline appears to be driven by a mix of legal, technical, and investor sentiment factors that are weighing heavily on its short-term outlook. Why is XRP Price Falling Today? Judge Halts $50M XRP-SEC Deal The primary factor behind the XRP price drop is Judge Analisa Torres’ decision on the XRP SEC case. Yesterday, she denied a joint request by Ripple and the SEC for early feedback on their $50 million settlement deal. She made it clear that no decision will be made until the appeal process is over. This decision has disappointed investors who were hoping for a faster resolution. XRP Ledger Activity Falls Sharply The XRP network is seeing lower activity. XRP Scan Data shows a big drop in daily transactions and active addresses. Payments on the XRP Ledger fell from nearly 1.83 million per day to 277,147 on June 27, with an 84% decrease. Adding to this, large XRP holders have also been selling, which is pushing the price down further. XRP ETF Approval Hopes Fading Investor hopes for a U.S based XRP spot ETF approval have also taken a hit. Just weeks ago, XRP ETF approval odds were over 95%, but now dropped to 76% following the latest court denial. This fading hope has led many investors to wait on the sidelines instead of buying more XRP. Global Market Sentiment Turns Weak The broader crypto market isn’t helping either. Bitcoin and other top coins are down as well, weighed down by the ongoing Middle East war and profit-taking. XRP, already dealing with legal stress, is feeling the pressure even more. What’s Next For XRP Price? From a technical view, XRP’s price has broken below its bullish flag pattern, showing strong selling momentum. However, the MACD indicator also shows bearish signals. If this trend continues, XRP could dip towards $1.90 before possibly bouncing back with renewed strength.

A company based in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has purchased $100 million worth of WLFI, the governance token of World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency platform tied to U.S. President Donald Trump and his family. Key Takeaways: A UAE firm has invested $100 million in WLFI, surpassing Justin Sun as the largest holder. The deal aims to boost WLFI’s efforts in tokenizing real-world assets and expanding stablecoin use. Trump family ties to WLFI continue to draw political scrutiny amid growing concerns over foreign influence. In a joint announcement on Thursday, World Liberty Financial and the Aqua1 Foundation described the deal as a strategic move to accelerate the development of a blockchain ecosystem focused on real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, stablecoin infrastructure, and decentralized finance. UAE Firm Aqua1 Becomes Largest WLFI Holder, Overtakes Justin Sun The announcement positions Aqua1, a self-described Web3-native fund, as a major WLFI stakeholder, surpassing Tron founder Justin Sun, who committed $30 million to the project last November. “Aqua1 and WLFI will work together to identify and support blockchain projects with transformative potential,” said Dave Lee, founding partner at Aqua1. He emphasized WLFI’s vision for integrating traditional finance with blockchain protocols, calling it “a trillion-dollar pivot opportunity.” The investment marks another high-profile link between the Trump family and international crypto dealings. World Liberty Financial, co-founded by President Trump’s three sons, has already drawn scrutiny from lawmakers. President Trump disclosed $57.4 million in income tied to WLFI and holds 15.75 billion of the platform’s governance tokens, according to recent filings. Back in May, Eric Trump sparked criticism when he revealed that Abu Dhabi-based MGX planned to use WLFI’s USD1 stablecoin to settle a $2 billion investment in Binance. That announcement came just as U.S. lawmakers ramped up discussions on new rules governing payment stablecoins. The overlap between legislative developments and the Trump family’s crypto business has raised red flags among some members of Congress. During a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing this week, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi declined to comment directly when pressed by Senator Jeff Merkley on the president’s involvement with World Liberty Financial . Merkley warned against foreign influence in American policymaking. “I think it’s important for the leader of the Justice Department of the United States to be very concerned about foreign influence,” he said. “Americans should make American decisions — not have them bought through crypto coins.” Trump Continues to Capitalize on Crypto Market Momentum Meanwhile, Donald Trump continues to capitalize on crypto market momentum. According to financial disclosures released last Friday, the former president pulled in $58 million from crypto ventures in 2024, primarily through WLFI token sales. That total trailed only his hospitality income and is expected to climb further in 2025 with an anticipated $390 million token sale and gains from his meme coin, launched in January. His involvement in Bitcoin mining, tokenized assets, and digital ETFs is raising concerns about potential conflicts of interest. Critics have pointed out that some of his businesses have seen tailwinds from favorable policy decisions during his time in office. As reported, the SEC has approved Trump Media and Technology Group’s (TMTG) registration statement tied to a $2.3 billion Bitcoin treasury initiative.

ACX, the native token of Across Protocol, has dropped sharply following serious allegations of insider self-dealing involving $23 million in decentralized autonomous organization funds. The token is trading at $0.1342, down 10% in the past 24 hours and over 40% in the past month. It’s now 91% below its all-time high of $1.69 set in December 2024. The allegations were made public on June 27 by Ogle, the pseudonymous founder of Layer 1 project Glue and advisor to World Liberty Financial. In a detailed post on X, Ogle accused the Across Protocol team, particularly project lead Kevin Chan and chief executive officer Hart Lambur, of orchestrating two secretive proposals that directly benefited their own company using undisclosed wallets. TLDR: Across Protocol/Bridge ($ACX) team used secret votes to extract ~$23m from the Across DAO’s treasury for their own private company's benefit. Background: I’ve many times posted about DAOs that are DAOs “in name only” – that is, organizations that pretend to be run by “the… — ogle | glue.net (@cryptogle) June 26, 2025 These proposals, made to appear as having community support, transferred 150 million ACX tokens worth about $23 million at current prices to Risk Labs over two separate governance votes. The first vote in October 2023 granted 100 million ACX under the pretense of future development support, with claims that the tokens would not be sold for two years.

Without those votes, it would not have reached quorum. The report argues that such actions run counter to DAO governance principles and create significant future sell pressure, especially harmful to ACX holders unaware of the conflicts of interest behind these decisions. Across Protocol has not publicly responded to the allegations at the time of writing. Looking at the technical picture, the chart shows clear downward pressure. The token is currently hugging the lower Bollinger Band at $0.1308 and trading below its 20-day simple moving average of $0.1597. At 31.27, the relative streghth index, which is trending downwards, is close to oversold territory. ACX price analysis. Credit: TradingView More declines may occur if the price breaks through the $0.13 support zone. Some investors may watching for a bounce move back toward the mid-Bollinger band despite the sell-off. However, in the short term, upward momentum might be limited due to deteriorating sentiment and eroded trust in the team.
