XRP Defends $2 Support After Franklin Templeton’s XRPZ ETF Debut

XRP is holding a pivotal support zone near $2 after the launch of new U.S.-listed exchange-traded funds tied to the token brought fresh institutional attention to the market. The move comes as Franklin Templeton’s XRPZ ETF began trading on NYSE Arca on November 25, joining Grayscale’s newly listed GXRP product.

The two products attracted roughly $164 million of first-day inflows according to CoinShares data, a signal that investor demand for XRP exposure is expanding beyond crypto-native venues. The ETF launches coincided with a 7.9% advance in XRP, the strongest performance among the top 10 digital assets on the day, as traders moved to reprice the token after weeks of consolidation.

ETF Access Strengthens the Bull Case: XRP Holds $2 

The arrival of XRP ETFs reduces the friction for traditional investors who prefer regulated wrappers over direct token custody. Strategists see the listings as a step toward institutional validation of XRP’s long-standing positioning as a cross-border payments network, especially as asset managers broaden their product lines beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Technically, XRP is again defending the $1.95–$2.05 support band, marking the seventh successful test since December 2024. Short-term charts show a constructive shift: on the 4-hour timeframe, XRP has printed a bullish divergence, with RSI(14) rising from 42 to 57 even as price moved sideways — a setup often associated with early-stage trend exhaustion.

Smart PR in Volatile Markets: Outset PR’s Syndication-First Model

As ETF launches reshape market narratives, visibility becomes part of the price cycle. In crypto, sentiment often swings as much on perceived momentum as on fundamentals — which is why projects increasingly lean on data-driven communications to stay credible during volatile phases.

The purpose of any PR campaign is to boost brand visibility. Traditionally, this has meant securing as many publications as possible, often with unpredictable outcomes. It was difficult to know how many readers would actually see a story, leaving much of PR to guesswork. 

Actually, it had been guesswork until analysts of Outset PR developed Syndication Map—a proprietary tool that identifies which outlets attract the most traffic and where a story is likely to achieve the strongest syndication lift. Senior Media Analyst Maximilian Fondé explains:

If a company needs a top list article, we filter the table for media that publish this format, cross-check costs and placement conditions, and know within minutes which outlets to pitch. Over time, that builds into a comprehensive database of crypto-friendly publishers – something other players in the industry don't have right now.

Smarter Campaigns, Lower Costs

Campaigns built with Syndication Map are not about mass reach for its own sake. They are carefully crafted to serve specific goals. By narrowing the focus to the most effective outlets, Outset PR reduces unnecessary spending on low-impact publications.

Another key factor is communication. Outset PR’s dedicated Media Relations team, led by Anastasia Anisimova, has earned the trust of leading outlets through professionalism and genuine relationships.

Sincerity and friendliness are our core principles, earning us the trust of numerous media outlets. Unfortunately, not all agencies in our industry prioritize friendliness in their communications.

Extended Reach Through Syndication

Outset PR campaigns also achieve more visibility than clients initially pay for. Articles are frequently republished across aggregators and platforms such as CoinMarketCap and Binance Square, extending exposure far beyond the original placement. Well-placed articles can achieve up to ten times the outreach of the original post.

Outset PR Sets a New Standard  

Pitching to a major outlet still has value, but syndication often delivers far greater reach at a lower cost. Outset PR has mastered this strategy, combining proprietary tools, strong media relations, and syndication opportunities to deliver results backed by numbers.

Outlook

XRP’s ability to defend $2 while ETFs begin trading suggests that institutional access is arriving at a moment of technical importance. If inflows remain steady and price clears the $2.23–$2.28 resistance band, the market could see a higher-low forming within the broader downtrend. Until the descending channel breaks, however, rallies are likely to face heavy overhead supply.
