According to Google Trends, by mid-October 2026, investor interest in XRP had decreased by more than 90% compared to the historical peak of July 2025, when the price surged to $3.65. The global popularity index of the query fell to 13 points out of 100 – the sharpest change in market sentiment. The historical curve, deployed since 2012, shows that the phenomenal growth of mid-2025 appears as an isolated peak, with traffic before and after it virtually at zero. Statistics for the last 12 months confirm the trend: the volume of search queries has halved, and the local surge in August-September completely dissipated by mid-October.
For the crypto market, this is classic off-season apathy – search activity for Bitcoin is also at multi-year lows. But in the case of XRP, the silence in search engines has created a paradox: small traders have stopped clicking on links, yet the price stubbornly refuses to fall. The coin is compressed in a narrow range of 1.30–1.34, holding key support around $1.25.
Amid the collapse of Google queries, the derivatives market has completely cleared of excessive leverage and froth. The current silence in search engines frightens speculators, yet predictive platforms and algorithmic models agree that the psychological bottom of retail interest has been reached.
According to estimates from predictive platforms and algorithmic models, the most likely scenario until the end of October is consolidation in the range of 1.40–1.50. Waiting for new records without the return of the mass trader to Google is premature, but this very calm may become a solid foundation for the next long-term cycle.
