XRP Price Plummets: Is $1 a Buying Opportunity?

XRP has been dropping precipitously over the past year, down nearly 70% from its $3.65 peak in 2025.

The price is now perilously close to $1, a level that usually prompts investors to seek safer havens.

However, one writer is taking a contrarian view and suggests buying XRP if it drops below this critical threshold.

Ripple has been working to build new use cases for the XRP token and is showcasing efforts to harden the blockchain against quantum threats.

The company has also cleared regulatory clouds, with a long-running SEC case settled last year and new spot XRP ETFs launched in 2026.
