  2. XRP Holds Near $1.32 as Traders Await a Move Above $1.34 — this brief

XRP traded at $1.32 on Binance as of November 5, 2026, according to The Cryptonomist. Its technical picture was described as bullish over the short term but neutral for the daily outlook. The outlet identified $1.34 as the level above which a daily close would allow the recovery to gain ground. The same analysis noted that XRP was above its daily 20-period exponential moving average, an indication that recent momentum had improved. It remained below the 50-period and 200-period averages, however, leaving the wider trend intact rather than fully reversed. No other outlet covered the story, so the technical assessment is attributable to The Cryptonomist alone. The live market snapshot showed XRP at $1.32, up 2.89% over 24 hours and 2.34% over seven days. Its market capitalization stood at $83.47 billion. Tether was priced at $0.999528, with the live data showing USDT’s market capitalization at $178.29 billion and DeFiLlama reporting a circulating supply of $177.73 billion. Broader conditions were supportive but not euphoric: total crypto market capitalization reached $2.76 trillion, Bitcoin gained 2.62% over 24 hours, and the Fear & Greed index stood at 50, classified as Neutral. With XRP’s $1.34 daily-close threshold in view, the immediate focus is whether price can sustain progress beyond its short-term moving-average support while the broader trend remains below longer-term benchmarks.

What this means in rupee

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 USDT ≈ ₹104.62 (about $0.9994), up 0.1% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 10.6% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
