CaptainAltcoin reports that 
XRP is drifting back toward the psychological $1 level, citing analysis from More Crypto Online. The referenced daily chart showed XRP around $1.03 after surrendering most of the recovery that followed its August lows, with the low near $0.985 identified as the next meaningful test.
The analysis presents $1 as an immediate psychological threshold and $0.985 as a more concrete recent support reference. No additional Fibonacci levels were specified in the supplied coverage, so the available evidence centers on the proximity of $1 and the August trough below it.
Live market data shows XRP at $1.029, down 2.21% over 24 hours and 13.40% over seven days. Its market capitalization stands at $65.35 billion. The weekly decline follows the broader retreat from the August rally, according to CaptainAltcoin’s summary of the chart analysis.
The wider crypto market is also under pressure. Total market capitalization is $2.39 trillion, 
Bitcoin is down 5.90% over 24 hours, and the Fear & Greed Index stands at 20, labelled Extreme Fear. In that setting, traders are watching whether XRP can hold $1 and whether a breach would expose the August low near $0.985; the cited levels indicate where technical attention is concentrated, not a forecast.
Since this brief published about 16 hours ago, XRP (XRP) has moved from $1.03 to $1.01 — -1.75%.
