XRP sentiment sinks into fear as price eyes potential rebound toward $3

On December 23, on-chain analytics firm Santiment reported that XRP social sentiment had turned sharply negative even as the token's price stabilized near recent lows around $1.90. Historically, such fear-zone readings and contrarian sentiment extremes around XRP have often aligned with local market bottoms and subsequent rebounds toward key resistance levels such as $2 and the psychological $3 area, although broader crypto market conditions remain a critical factor.
