XRP took quite the eerie plunge amid all that market gloom last June, crashing down to a chilling multi-year low around $1.00. Yet this eerie support held firm against the bearish shadows, letting the asset claw back up with eerie speed. All eyes turn to July now, a month XRP has owned in spooky style these past four years with those double-digit surges. So what fresh shadows or treats await in July 2026?
June’s Gloom Meets July’s Twisted Promise 🖤
Data from Cryptorank showed XRP closing June down a hefty 22.1%. The dip hit $1.01 on most platforms during the crypto FUD waves, Middle East tensions, and darker vibes, marking its lowest print since late 2024 and knocking it from the top 5 by market cap. It has clawed back to $1.15 by now, still trailing behind USDC, BNB, USDT, ETH, and BTC, though the bulls eye July’s track record with hungry delight. Every one of the last six Julys closed green, and five delivered those sweet double-digit pops. July 2020 and 2023 led the dark charge with 48.1% and 47.6% runs, while last year added a wicked 35% lift on top of the prior 31.2% move. The gentler ones landed at 14.6% in 2022 and 6.91% in 2021. XRP already opened the 2026 July chapter with a 9% gain, yet the five Julys from 2015-2019 all sank red, leaving the next path an open mystery.
Fresh inflows into spot Ripple ETFs could light the wick higher. As noted over the weekend the funds just logged their ninth straight week of positive flows.
Quarterly Shadows and the Next Turn 🕸️
That 22.1% June slide pulled Q2 down 22.4% too, marking the third red quarter in a row with heavy losses each time: 35.4% in Q4 2025, 27.1% in Q1 2026, and now 22.4% in Q2 2026. Ripple bulls can still cling to the pattern where XRP has posted strong rebounds after prior negative runs. The coming months will reveal if the cycle spins the same way or if deeper losses lurk ahead. reported details here
