Foreign media articles state that XRP's recent performance remains weak, but discussions surrounding its long-term value continue. One market participant was quoted as saying that XRP may not rise along a gradual curve in the future, but is more likely to experience a surge when demand increases.
Price performance remains weak
XRP is currently trading around $1.16, down about 4.5% on the day. The article states that this token has been trending downwards since 2026, with a cumulative drop of nearly 47% over the past year, essentially erasing all previous gains.
Long-term narratives are still emphasized
The article mentions that Versan Aljarrah, founder of Black Swan Capitalist, believes that XRP may assume an infrastructure role and benefit from the transformation process as demand for tokenization expands. He also stated that XRP may gradually decouple from overall market trends in the future.
Investors' patience is wearing thin.
However, the article also notes that similar long-term narratives have recurred for years, but price improvements have been minimal. For many holders, what truly influences their judgment remains the continued price performance, rather than longer-term expectations.
