XRP Faces Ongoing Downtrend as $1.80 Holds as Resistance Since Jan 2026

XRP has remained below the $1.80 level since it flipped from support to resistance in January 2026, leaving the broader trend technically bearish. The token rose 15% from March 9–16 and closed at $1.54 on March 16, but later met resistance at $1.6074 and slid back to around $1.46. An analyst says reclaiming $1.80 is the key trigger, with the $1.20–$1.30 area highlighted as a downside zone if the rejection persists.
