Notably, during this time, premium remained heavily negative, and funding rates oscillated between positive and negative. \u201cThis suggests to me there have been a net addition of short positions to the Open Interest for $XRP,\u201d the analyst wrote, implying that a crowded short trade could now be structurally exposed.<\/p>\n<p>Layering this with TradingDiff\u2019s liquidity heatmap, CryptoInsightUK inferred that \u201cwe are at some point looking for a short squeeze here for XRP.\u201d While the timing remains uncertain, the combination of rising open interest, negative premium, and dense liquidity above suggests growing asymmetry in risk for short sellers.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-781965\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Gu1xXDYXMAASz5U-1.png?resize=1024%2C572\" alt=\"Binance futures data\" width=\"1024\" height=\"572\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Still, the analyst added a critical note of caution. \u201cBoth ETH and XRP on the daily do have some liquidity below us,\u201d he said, acknowledging the possibility of a fakeout or liquidity sweep downward before any aggressive upside movement. \u201cAs you guys know, it is possible to leave some liquidity behind as some people win their trades. BUT, we cannot count this out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A final observation focused on Ethereum\u2019s changing liquidity landscape, which may have broader implications for the market as a whole. \u201cSomething has changed on ETH,\u201d CryptoInsightUK wrote. \u201cIf we look to the liquidity above us we can see the Red has turned Yellow.\u201d He interpreted this shift as a possible signal that shorts are being closed, or that new longs are building below the current price, thereby visually reducing the intensity of liquidity above.<\/p>\n<p>Whether XRP can reach the $2.40 liquidity pocket remains to be seen, but the fuse may already be lit. At press time, XRP traded at $2.18.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-781968\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/XRPUSDT_2025-07-02_15-42-43.png?resize=1024%2C454\" alt=\"XRP price\" width=\"1024\" height=\"454\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A growing number of technical signals suggest that XRP may be on the verge of a short squeeze, according to prominent crypto analyst CryptoInsightUK.
