XRP gets a moderation reset as sentiment hits its July low

Social media sentiment toward $XRP has fallen to its lowest level since July, according to crypto analyst Ali Martinez, as the token trades near $1.19 after declining more than 7% earlier this week.

Ripple CTO Emeritus David Schwartz, one of the architects of the $XRP Ledger, said he has begun blocking users who follow him around X to post insults and accusations.

The developments coincide with weakening holder sentiment around $XRP. Martinez’s analysis follows the token’s recent price decline, while Schwartz’s account of increased blocking reflects his efforts to limit abusive and accusatory posts directed at him on X.
