The number of real-world asset (RWA) holders on the XRP Ledger has jumped 25.16% over the past month as Ripple keeps expanding institutional infrastructure on the network. XRP's own price tells a different story, remaining stuck in a long-term bearish structure on both its USDT and BTC pairs.
XRP Ledger data shows the RWA holder count climbing 25.16% over the last month, a period in which Ripple also disclosed fresh infrastructure investments. Price action has not followed: the broader trend remains tilted to the downside even as sellers have slowed in recent weeks.
RWA infrastructure expands
Just days ago, Ripple disclosed new investments in two major companies to advance the XRP Ledger's infrastructure for institutional adoption of tokenized assets. The push follows Ripple's plan to position the XRP Ledger as a platform for institutional finance and real-world asset tokenization. Beyond the holder growth, over a thousand developers and businesses are building on the network, as the XRP Ledger keeps expanding infrastructure aimed at enterprise-grade reliability, scalability, and cost-efficient transactions.
Stablecoin market cools
The stablecoin market on the XRP Ledger did not show the same momentum. Stablecoin market capitalization fell 9.04% over the same period, to $901.4 million. Yet the number of stablecoin holders still rose, increasing modestly by 0.92% to more than 60,240 addresses over the 30-day period.
XRP price holds above $1
Against USDT, XRP is confined inside a descending channel, trading below both the 100-day moving average near $1.20 and the 200-day moving average near $1.35, which reinforce the overhead resistance. The price is holding just above the $1 support zone, an area that has repeatedly attracted buyers over the past several weeks.
A break below $1 could open the door to a decline toward the next support around $0.90. On the upside, reclaiming the $1.25 to $1.30 area would be the first sign of improving momentum. A broader trend reversal, however, would likely require a break above the $1.50 to $1.55 supply zone.
BTC pair signals more downside
The XRP/BTC pair tells a bleaker story. Having lost the 1,700 sats support level, the pair now faces that level as resistance and could extend its decline toward 1,500 sats if sellers stay in control.
A recovery above 1,700 sats would expose the next resistance levels at 1,900 and 2,000 sats, though any rebound would likely stay corrective rather than reverse the broader trend.
