The post XRP sees $14.2M liquidation flush – Could leverage reset fuel price recovery? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
XRP’s recent volatility has flushed leverage from both sides, leaving a cleaner market without a matching rise in exchange supply. XRP Open Interest fell 14% from $558 million to $478 million as of writing, while leverage eased from 0.203 to 0.182. That reset followed $14.2 million in two-way liquidations within 48 hours.

Therefore, a continued growth trend regarding RWA may help to establish institutional value on the network. Ultimately, increasing numbers of stablecoin transfers may lead to deeper liquidity, greater settlement activity, and everyday capital movement.
