Analysis

XRP jumped 10.8% to $1.65, according to real-time market data- . The move came as Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse joined President Trump and other crypto leaders at a White House summit on August 13, 2026, to discuss clearer crypto rules and the CLARITY Act- - 2 . Separately, asset manager 21Shares (managing $11 billion) pointed to four key structural shifts in XRP's ecosystem, including growing institutional investment products and rising settlement volumes- - 1 . The RSI sits at 89.4, deep in overbought territory above the typical 70 threshold, according to the provided data. Immediate support rests at $1.41 (BB Upper), with resistance at $1.89 (Pivot R1). The neutral Score of 10 (CONFLICTED) and absence of MACD confirmation suggest the rally may lack broad technical backing. XRP holding above $1.65 with rising volume would signal continuation, but failure to break $1.89 could trigger a pullback toward the $1.41 support zone.
