It may seem like there has been a lack of action on the cryptocurrency market lately, especially after the roller coaster ride it has been on, but as some indicators suggest, this may just be the calm before the storm.

If this death cross is validated, the consequences could be quite painful, as the only strong visible support on this variation of the XRP price chart is the 200-day moving average, which is currently at $1 — 56% lower than the current price.

Of course, nothing is set in stone, and chaos is at an all-time high lately, but this should definitely be taken into account with all the uncertainty around.
