Exchange activity showed more XRP tokens deposited for sale than withdrawn over the past several days, a pattern tied to the token's rapid price drawdown this week. Sentiment stayed extremely bearish through the week, but XRP may still close it on a stronger note: the token has briefly surged past its recent lows to around $1.04 at the time of the report.
