XRP's price holds steady around $1.25 as speculation about Evernorth's potential $655M purchase circulates, though confirmation remains elusive. XRP (XRP) is trading at ₹121 ($1.27). This is an original Token Times brief based on reporting by AMBCrypto, with live market data added, as of Sun, 18 Oct 2026 17:15:01 UTC.
The rumored Evernorth purchase, if confirmed, could signify growing institutional interest in XRP and potentially bolster its market position. However, the lack of confirmation and bearish on-chain signals complicate the outlook.
- XRP price hovers near $1.25 despite unconfirmed Evernorth rumors.
- Market cap remains robust at $80.26B amid speculation.
- Bearish on-chain signals and ETF outflows temper optimism.
XRP's price has stabilized around $1.25 following rumors of a significant purchase by Evernorth, a subsidiary of health insurance giant Cigna. The potential $655M purchase has fueled optimism among traders, but as of now, the transaction remains unconfirmed.
Despite the lack of confirmation, the rumor has helped maintain XRP's market cap at a substantial $80.26B. However, bearish on-chain signals and negative ETF flows, as reported by AMBCrypto, suggest potential headwinds for the cryptocurrency.
The broader crypto market remains relatively flat, with a total market cap of $2.78T. 
Bitcoin's slight 0.32% decline in the past 24 hours reflects the overall cautious sentiment, as indicated by the Neutral reading of 53 on the Fear & Greed index.
XRP's 24-hour performance shows a 1.77% decline, while its 7-day performance is more pronounced at -9.01%. These figures suggest that while the Evernorth rumor has provided some support, it has not been enough to counteract broader market pressures.
The lack of confirmation regarding the Evernorth purchase leaves XRP in a state of uncertainty. Traders will be watching for any official announcements or further developments that could solidify the rumored deal and potentially boost the cryptocurrency's price.
Since this brief published about 1 hour ago, XRP (XRP) has moved from ₹120.75$1.27 to ₹120.75$1.27 — +0.00%.
