XRP Price May Not Fall to $1 Again Unless Bitcoin Does This

XRP price has mostly struggled in 2026, but pro-Ripple lawyer Bill Morgan believes the token may have a difficult time falling all the way back to $1 unless Bitcoin suffers a much larger decline. Morgan pointed to the strong directional relationship between XRP and Bitcoin, arguing that the correlation between the two assets has been around 0.88 over both the last 30 and 90 days. That means XRP and BTC have generally been moving in the same direction, even though the XRP price has performed much worse on a relative basis.
