XRP is trading at $15.79, down 4.01%, primarily due to profit-taking after surging 9.67% on September 3, with caution ahead of the U.S. August employment report.
- Mixed equity futures, elevated Middle East tensions, and oil near $97 added risk sensitivity.
- Markets weighed whether payroll data would strengthen or weaken rate-cut expectations; broader crypto sentiment remained positive, limiting confidence in an XRP-specific fundamental catalyst.
