Is XRP overvalued? This is one question that the broader market has asked since the altcoin began its explosive in November.
While some have hoped that the XRP price rally will subside, a significant correction has not happened. But, according to this on-chain analysis, the token might soon be overpriced when compared to the overall market condition.
The Ripple Token Faces Huge RiskAbout one month ago, XRP’s price broke the $1 mark for the first time in a long while. Some market observers believed it to be a fakeout. However, that sentiment turned out to be false, as it now trades at $2.36.
Despite several predictions coming out that the token’s value might rally toward the $5 mark, some on-chain indicators suggest that it could be challenging. One indicator that aligns with the thesis is the Network Value to Transaction (NVT) ratio.
The NVT ratio measures the growth of an asset’s market cap relative to the transaction growth. When the ratio drops, it means that transactions on the network are growing faster than the market cap, which is bullish and indicates that the price is undervalued.

Another indicator with such sentiment is the price- Daily Active Addresses (DAA) divergence. The price DAA measures the level of price growth compared to user engagement. When the metric increases, it means that user engagement is backing the price action, which is bullish.
However, as of this writing, the price of DAA divergence has dropped by 326.13%, suggesting that the number of XRP wallets interacting with the token has decreased. If this trend continues, then the XRP price might slide lower than $2.

However, the altcoin faced resistance at $2.35, which has pulled the price back to $2.31. A look at the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) shows that the 12- and 26-period Exponential Moving Averages are down to the negative region.
This drop indicates bearish momentum around the token. Should the momentum continue to decline, then the XRP price might fall to $2.05.
