XRP Funding Stays Positive as Bitcoin and Ethereum Rates Turn Negative

  • —XRP average funding rate is 0.0149%, with Kraken highest at 0.2581%
  • —Bitcoin average funding rate is -0.0005%, Binance at -0.0023%
  • —ETH 8-hour funding rates are negative on Binance, Bybit and OKX
  • —XRP holds the $1.45-$1.48 support after retreating from $1.62
Why it matters: XRP's positive funding shows longs are holding, but a break below $1.45 could trigger a liquidation cascade.
