XRP rebounds over the weekend but faces resistance; holiday liquidity shortages drag down trading volume. Market focus shifts to stablecoins and the payments sector.

XRP has been rising steadily recently, with the price reaching $1.86 and a 24-hour increase of 1.7%. However, trading volume has decreased by 37%, totaling only $1.06 billion, reflecting insufficient liquidity during the holiday period. Industry experts believe that the market's capacity for expansion in the coming years, along with the performance of stablecoins and payment applications, will be key growth factors.

【Crypto World】XRP’s weekend rally continues, with the price surpassing $1.86 and a 24-hour increase of 1.7%. However, don’t be fooled by this gain; trading volume has actually declined by 37%, down to $1.06 billion. The main reason is weak liquidity during the holiday period.

From a broader perspective, the cryptocurrency market is now entering an interesting phase—market activity distribution is more noteworthy than the overall narrative. In other words, by 2026, the real test will be whether these projects can achieve true scalability under strict resource constraints. Industry analysts believe that stablecoins and payment applications will be the two core pillars driving growth next, and the performance of these two sectors will directly influence the development pace of the entire ecosystem.

During the holiday period, low water levels and fake gains, a 37% plunge in trading volume is the real story. The real test in 2026 is whether stablecoins and payments can hold up; just price increases are useless. XRP's recent rebound feels a bit fake, with liquidity being extremely poor. Trading volume can't be fooled; trying to pretend it's a bull market with just over 1 billion? The stablecoin sector indeed has potential; payments are the ultimate goal. Holiday market trends are just big hype; we'll see after returning to work. Trading volume is the key; a good increase doesn't mean much. Real scalability is what truly matters; let's wait and see in 2026.

Trading volume plummeted by 37% yet people are still hyping the gains. I’m too familiar with this routine. Holidays are the best window for cutting leeks. Can stablecoins and payments really save the market? I think we need to survive the bear market until 2025 before 2026. This XRP rebound is just a false rally. Without volume support, it’s just an air cannon. The real test of scalability? Nice words, but most projects have already died from resource constraints and have long been forgotten. The payment sector is now a mess. Still holding out hope for it? That’s a bit too optimistic.

Trading volume is only 1 billion and it's already rising there; truly fewer retail investors during the holiday. But honestly, the stablecoin and payments sectors are definitely worth watching. 2026 is the real time to see who survives. Another holiday trap, with such fierce gains but such a tragic outcome—being cautious is the right move. How much longer can XRP hold on in this wave? It feels a bit hollow. I generally don't believe in rebounds with poor liquidity. Let's wait and see how it develops later.

Sell on rebound; trading volume says everything. Don't be fooled by the 1.7% increase. There are always lower points waiting for the next buyer. Be patient and watch. Payment sector? Ha, another new narrative. History tells me to reduce positions during such times. Poor liquidity is the real market signal. Buying the dip is the way to go.

The increase looks quite comfortable, but the trading volume immediately breaks the threshold—let's just leave it at that for the holiday. I've heard too many times about stablecoins and payments; honestly, I still don't know by 2026. Trading volume halved, this upward trend seems a bit fake. When liquidity is poor, it's easiest to get cut; holiday market conditions are indeed unreliable. A 1.7% increase accompanied by a 37% drop in volume is really a bit outrageous. The payment sector has been hyped for so long—why is the hype still going on? Time for action. Holiday market conditions, just look at them, don't take them too seriously.

Trading volume down 37%, and still talking about growth? The holiday is like this; let's wait until real money comes back before speaking.

Trading volume plummeted 37% yet people are still hyping up the gains; holiday market sentiment is so虚假 The test in 2026? It's already dead now Stablecoins and the payments sector definitely need to keep up, otherwise they are just air projects XRP's recent rebound doesn't seem very strong The era of liquidity drought has arrived; everyone needs to carefully select projects
