Despite the recent price collapse of the asset, $XRP's network activity is demonstrating resilience.

The amount of money transferred between $XRP accounts has already surpassed 500 million $XRP daily, according to on-chain data, and on June 18 it was approximately 482 million $XRP. The network's speed at regaining this level of activity following the recent market-wide selloff is what makes this noteworthy, not the exact number.

$XRP's behavior is different now

Sharp drops in cryptocurrency markets have historically suppressed on-chain activity for long stretches of time. As speculative interest wanes, users become less engaged, transaction volumes decrease, and network participation deteriorates. The way $XRP behaves seems different.

In contrast to what many analysts would have predicted, payment volume has remained high even after falling below the crucial $1.30 support level and causing a wider technical breakdown. The 500 million $XRP threshold is important because it represents real value flowing through the network rather than just speculative exchange trading.

Sustained account-to-account transfers frequently offer a clearer picture of underlying network utilization, even though exchange volume may spike during panic selling. Despite negative market conditions, activity on the ledger appears to be relatively healthy, as evidenced by a recovery towards half a billion $XRP being transferred every day.

Users activity isn't dropping

This perspective is supported by additional metrics. There are currently close to 145,000 active users, and there are still more than 10,000 active sending accounts. Earlier this month, both indicators saw brief weakness before rapidly stabilizing.

Even as price action declined, network participants may not have given up on the ecosystem, as evidenced by the lack of a protracted collapse in user activity. However, the market has not yet rewarded these fundamentals.

$XRP broke out of a multi-month consolidation structure and is still trading below its major moving averages. The crucial resistance area that bulls must retake before sentiment can significantly improve is still the $1.20-$1.30 range.

As of right now, the divergence is evident: network activity is doing much better than anticipated, but prices are still low. If active users stay steady and payment volume stays around 500 million $XRP, $XRP may eventually build a stronger fundamental base than the current chart alone indicates.

The AI boom may follow the path of the 19th-century railway bubble, and builders may not be the ultimate winners

Goldman Sachs analyst Bobby Molavi compared the current situation to the 19th-century British railway mania: 500 companies spent more than the nation's annual income building 8,000 miles of railway, with most early investors losing out, while the real beneficiaries were the later "passengers." He pointed out that the current AI craze is driven by both debt and momentum, and that the S&P 500’s forward P/E ratio of 18x is only "a bit cheaper." Whether the builders can retain value is uncertain, and history does not offer an optimistic answer.

The AI boom may follow the path of the 19th-century railway bubble, and builders may not be the ultimate winners

If Anthropic's IPO goes smoothly and the stock price rises next week, then everything remains the same for AI. Otherwise, some companies will go bankrupt.

The shrinking valuations of two major giants have triggered a chain reaction—investors are adopting more conservative revenue multiples for AI startups and are directly halting high-valuation financing for companies with zero revenue. Multiple venture capital firms have advised their portfolio companies to lower valuation expectations and to quickly build up cash reserves. Market participants warn that the outcome of Anthropic’s IPO will be a barometer for the industry: if successful, the boom will continue; if it fails, some companies may face elimination.

Corning (GLW.US) receives initial "Buy" rating from Jefferies! AI factories driving a fiber optic rush, with a potential global supply gap of up to 30%

For Corning, the recent profit growth mainly comes from the expansion of AI clusters. As the number of optical links crossing cabinets and campuses increases, customers need to deploy more optical fibers within limited conduit and cabinet space, thus driving demand for high-density optical cables and connection systems.
