Santiment Links XRP's Price Shift to Ripple Secondary Shares Reaching $136.90

XRP began responding more closely to fundamentals over the past week after triggering Santiment's "social_price_correlation" signal. The shift coincided with Ripple's non-public secondary share price rising 376% all-time to $136.90, alongside multiple U.S. policy and XRPL catalysts in May. Despite the news flow, XRP traded between $1.39 and $1.47 and was still down 26% since the start of 2026.
