While XRP (Ripple) has given up the key support level of $1.41 despite institutional fund inflows, artificial intelligence (AI) models are weighing on the possibility of further weakness until early June.
According to the cryptocurrency media outlet Finbold on May 20 (local time), XRP continues its bearish trend amid deteriorating short-term investment sentiment, despite recent increases in institutional demand. However, analysis suggests that there is still a possibility of a rebound if institutional fund inflows continue, as buying pressure is defending the $1.32 support level.
Indeed, funds are steadily flowing into XRP spot ETFs. Last week alone, the net inflow into XRP spot ETFs recorded $60.5 million, and over $10.7 million has additionally flowed in during the past few days this week. In contrast, individual investor sentiment is rapidly shrinking. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index currently stands at 25, entering the 'extreme fear' zone.
Finbold's AI prediction agent forecasted an average XRP price of $1.34 for June 1. This is approximately 2.4% lower than the current price of $1.37. This prediction was calculated by synthesizing the results of three AI models: ChatGPT 5.2, Google Gemini 3 Flash, and DeepSeek.
Among the model-specific forecasts, ChatGPT showed the least pessimistic outlook. ChatGPT predicted an XRP price of $1.35, suggesting a potential decline of approximately 1.82%. DeepSeek, on the other hand, forecasted $1.33, reflecting a potential decline of approximately 3.28%. Google Gemini 3 Flash suggested $1.34. However, all three models focused on the possibility of limited bearish trends rather than a sharp drop.
The market is also paying attention to the XRP Ledger (XRPL) technical upgrade 'FixCleanup3_1_3' scheduled for May 27. This update aims to improve network stability and technical debt. Ripple is also pursuing the application of quantum-resistant technology by 2028. J. Ayo Akinyele, Head of Engineering at RippleX, explained, "Quantum threats are not hypothetical but an engineering challenge with a clear timeline," adding, "XRPL already possesses core capabilities such as key rotation and a validator network." However, the media reported that recent on-chain movements by whale investors show a mix of accumulation and redistribution, increasing short-term volatility.
