XRPCRYPTOCAP:XRP is at a major turning point at the $2.65 level as we look to push through the 200 EMA. If we get news of the SEC case dropping, Federal Reserves or more positive ETF news we may be on our way towards $3 heading into the weekend.
If we fail this level we may retest the $2.45 support before we head back up.
We are looking more bullish everyday, the time is coming for the switch to be flipped.
Ripple
XRP The Greatest Deception & Delusion In Crypto History!I cannot believe how many have fallen for this deception. I cant believe how many are about to get scammed and rug pulled by Ripple. The amount of hype this thing has had over the years is simply amazing, just to keep it afloat so Ripple can sell their holdings to unwary, and naive investors. The number of influencers getting paydays because of clicks and subs by pumping this thing with their wild and wacky delusional predictions should be criminal. The amount of people being led to slaughter is going to absolutely be awful. This crypto is going to destroy so many investors wallets, hopes, and dreams. I cant believe this crap. Lets break this piece of turd down so a layman and children can understand because those are the only ones who would invest in something so worthless.
I know, I know but banks, banks, banks, banks! Yeah yeah yeah Garlic Bread shook Trumps hand I know I know. Lets get real here kids!
No banks are going to hold anything that is as volatile as this crap. The new stable coin RLUSD has officially made XRP useless. Why would any bank use something that can change in price within minutes over a stable USD pegged asset. They simply will not.
Also lets clarify some things here:
SANTANDER
Santander does not use XRP to power its One Pay FX service, which is a blockchain-based international money transfer service. Instead, Santander uses Ripple's xCurrent, a blockchain software that enables real-time tracking and settlement of payments
STANDARD CHARTERED BANK
You can't currently send money through Standard Chartered Bank using XRP tokens, but you can send and receive XRP using other services. Standard Chartered Bank works with a number of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ether, XRP, and stablecoins. Standard Chartered offers a variety of services for digital assets, including custody, trading, and banking. NOT JUST XRP
BANK OF AMERICA
You can't currently send money through Bank of America using XRP, but you can send money using Bank of America's wire transfer service. Bank of America (BoA) has been exploring Ripple's blockchain technology and XRP, and may use XRP for payments in the future.
MARKET CAP OF XRP TOKEN VERSUS OTHERS
XRP MARKET CAP $144 BILLION
MONEYGRAM $1 BILLION
WESTERN UNION $3.66 BILLION
SANTANDER BANK $93 BILLION
STANDARD CHARTERED BANK $27 BILLION
PAYPAL $77 BILLION
JP MORGAN CHASE BIGGEST BANK IN WORLD! $785 BILLION
AMERICAN EXPRESS $218 BILLION
BANK OF AMERICA $353 BILLION
CITI GROUP $160 BILLION
So you're trying to tell me that XRP market cap of $144 billion isn't already overvalued like crazy! Its worth more than Moneygram, Santander, Western Union, Standered Chartered Bank, Paypal, and Citigroup. For what reason would it be actually worth that much right now when everything is mostly just hype and speculation and being duped. Even if every bank did use it they arent holding onto it. They are simply buying it and then selling it instantly and converting it to whatever fiat the exchange called for. Simpletons believing that XRP can actually be worth $100 or $500 each is so crazy and stupid its hard to believe no one can do math. This thing will be lucky to double top and let you get out. Its going to crash in an epic fashion because its value to worth is so far off its insane.
Some more facts!
All XRP was pre-issued at launch, unlike cryptocurrencies that use mining
The XRP creators gifted the company 80% of all XRP, keeping 20 billion units for themselves
80% OF XRP WENT TO THE COMPANY FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!
WILL BANKS USE XRP WITH IT BEING SO VOLATILE?
Banks might use XRP despite its volatility because it functions as a bridge currency, allowing them to quickly and efficiently settle cross-border transactions at a lower cost by converting currencies into XRP instead of relying on traditional fiat currency exchange processes, which can be significantly slower and more expensive; essentially, the price fluctuations of XRP become less relevant when used solely as a TEMPORARY intermediary in transactions. KEY WORD TEMPORARY. BUY, SEND, SELL! NO ONE IS INVESTING IT IT ITS MERELY A SETTLEMENT CURRENCY.
The Ripple network, where XRP operates, is designed to provide readily available liquidity for cross-border transactions, meaning banks don't need to hold large reserves of various currencies! Wake up people, and now that the stable coin is running on the Ripple RLUSD, there is NO USE FOR XRP THE TOKEN. XRP was simply a token to dump on clueless investors to keep the company Ripple going.
If you think that all these institutions want to invest in XRP and theres this huge demand for institutional buyers of XRP lets take a look at Grayscale the closest thing available to big investors on the stock market.
SOME GRAYSCALE HOLDINGS
XRP $14 MILLION
ZCASH $13 MILLION
HORIZEN $14 MILLION
XLM $41 MILLION
CHAINLINK $22 MILLION
BITCOIN CASH $134 MILLION
ETHEREUM CLASSIC $240 MILLION
LITECOIN $260 MILLION
XRP is on the same level as Horizen and ZCASH, one of their lowest holdings. This is a clear sign that no big money wants anything to do with XRP the token because if they did they would be investing through the trust. XRP the token was a scam from the get go to get the insiders rich and to pay for the development of Ripple the company. If and when Ripple the company goes public do you really think your precious XRP token will be worth anything. NO IT WONT. THEY WILL HAVE THEIR OWN DAMN TICKER THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH XRP.
Oh and the ETF, No f'ing way that thing will ever get approved while the SEC is still going after it. Get real! Even so even if THE SLIGHTEST CHANCE it did it'll have as much demand as the XRP Grayscale trust, NONE IT'LL BE A DAMN DUD. No big money will touch this with a 1000 foot pole. Not with the company holding still almost 60% of the supply. Its a honeypot for the creators.
None of this is meant to be financial advice just my opinion. Dont lose your shirts.
XRP Set for 200% Surge as Ripple (RLUSD) Hits Major Milestone
The altcoin XRP and its parent company Ripple have long been entangled in a legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), with the key issue revolving around whether XRP should be classified as a security rather than a cryptocurrency. This lawsuit, spanning nearly five years, has undoubtedly put a damper on Ripple's momentum. However, a fresh wave of optimism is sweeping through the XRP community as recent developments suggest a significant price surge could be on the horizon.
RLUSD Stablecoin’s Supply Milestone: A Catalyst for XRP
The Ripple USD (RLUSD) stablecoin, pegged to the U.S. dollar, has recently hit a major milestone, boasting a total supply of 120 million tokens just two months after its official launch. This rapid growth underscores RLUSD’s increasing adoption and utility, particularly within the XRP Ledger (XRPL).
According to blockchain analytics platform CryptoQuant, RLUSD initially gained traction on the Ethereum blockchain at launch. However, the stablecoin has since pivoted, showing accelerated growth on the XRPL — a shift that highlights the XRP Ledger’s growing ecosystem and liquidity. Notably, RLUSD’s adoption has been bolstered by recent listings on key platforms, including the high-leverage trading platform Margex and the Zero Hash platform. Furthermore, its availability for trading on Revolut has pushed it further into the mainstream financial sphere.
This expansion push has directly contributed to the surge in RLUSD supply, strengthening the underlying fundamentals of the XRPL ecosystem. With the stablecoin's liquidity deepening, XRP's future rally seems all the more likely.
Bullish Flag Pattern Signals 200% Surge
From a technical standpoint, XRP’s price action paints a compelling picture. As of this writing, XRP is trading at $2.56, down by 3.76% in the last 24 hours — a dip that analysts suggest is merely a temporary retracement after its recent climb to $2.78.
A closer look at the 4-hour price chart reveals the formation of a bullish flag pattern — a classic continuation pattern often signaling that an asset is poised for further upside. The pattern, characterized by a sharp upward movement (flagpole) followed by a period of consolidation (flag), suggests that XRP is gathering momentum for its next breakout.
Adding to the bullish case is the Relative Strength Index (RSI), currently at 46. This reading indicates that XRP is neither overbought nor oversold, suggesting room for upward movement. The recent pullback appears to be a healthy market shakeout, allowing XRP to gather strength before testing new resistance levels.
The key resistance to watch is $2.78, XRP’s recent high. A decisive break above this level could open the doors for a 200% surge, potentially propelling XRP towards the $7.50 mark in the coming days.
RLUSD’s Role in XRP’s Liquidity Boost
Beyond the charts, XRP’s fundamental outlook is equally promising. The growing adoption of RLUSD within the XRPL ecosystem serves as a critical liquidity boost for XRP. As more RLUSD tokens circulate, they inject additional liquidity into the XRPL, enhancing the utility of both the stablecoin and XRP itself.
Conclusion
Traders and investors should keep a close eye on the $2.78 resistance level — a breakout above it could mark the beginning of XRP’s next explosive move. As RLUSD continues to expand and XRP's ecosystem gains momentum, the stage seems set for a powerful rally.
Stay tuned, and prepare for what could be a historic run for XRP.
XRP- Key Levels to Watch amongst ETF SpeculationXRP has been on a wild ride, rallying impressively from the $0.55 range in November to its current levels. However, the market has been challenging over the past few weeks. Despite this, $2.48 remains a crucial support level, one that should not be ignored.
📌 Key Levels to Watch:
🔹 Support: $2.48 – A critical level that, if lost, could see XRP drop to $2.28.
🔹 Resistance: $2.99 – A reasonable target for the next bullish move.
🔹 Major Resistance: $3.36 – The level to break for further upside potential.
The overall crypto market sentiment remains uncertain, but as we approach March, we could see increased momentum. Speculation around an XRP ETF and ongoing regulatory developments add to the mix.
💬 What’s your outlook on XRP? Can we expect new all-time highs this year? Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
One Love,
The FXPROFESSOR 💙
Ripple: Short-term Sell-offs ExpectedRipple’s recent upward push didn’t prove to be sustainable. Anyway, we primarily anticipate another significant sell-off, which should drive the price down into our magenta Target Zone between $1.69 and $1. These declines should allow the corresponding corrective wave (4) to establish a proper low. Only after this bottom has been settled do we reckon with the extended rise of the magenta wave (5), which should target new all-time highs beyond the $3.39 resistance. If XRP breaks above this green level sooner than primarily expected, the magenta wave alt.(5) will begin prematurely. Under this 33% likely alternative scenario, the magenta wave alt.(4) would have already concluded with the February 3 low, and our magenta Target Zone wouldn’t be reached.
XRP FINAL STEEP DISCOUNT OPPORTUNITY IS IMMINENTMy time-wave cycles analysis (among other components) indicating we will have a final sell wave to 1.45-1.7 zone over coming days (before FOMC meeting in March imo).
Granted I was a little off on exact timing to reach the buy-side targets back in December but nonetheless accurate on projected price levels..See prior analysis at attached link for the projected high coming in at 3.1-3.3, exactly as it happened...
I have no doubt this final sell wave will also occur. Depending on your goals & trading style, you may treat this next sell wave as an opportunity to simply add more at discounted levels via DCA'ing....or choose to sell at these relative highs to maximize position size once again from sub-1.70 levels.. I DO NOT EXPECT US TO SEE sub-3$ ANYTIMEagain after this next sell wave completes & then buyers take us to 4+ in q2 & beyond.
Expecting this to be the FINAL steep discount buying opportunity for those interested in maximizing their capital purchasing power for long term speculative hodling
Follow for additional actionable alerts & analysis. Appreciate the boosts & looking forward to your comments as well!
XRP: ETF Hopes and Price PredictionsXRP, the cryptocurrency closely associated with Ripple Labs, finds itself at a critical juncture.1 A confluence of factors, including the potential approval of an XRP Exchange Traded Fund (ETF), positive price predictions tied to Bitcoin's performance, and the emergence of a new rival, have created a complex landscape for the digital asset. This article explores these intertwined narratives, examining the potential for XRP to break free from its range-bound trading and reach new heights, while also acknowledging the challenges and uncertainties that lie ahead.
ETF Euphoria: A Catalyst for Price Appreciation?
The recent acknowledgment by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of Grayscale's XRP ETF application has ignited a wave of optimism within the XRP community.2 This move is seen as a significant step towards potential approval, which many believe could unlock substantial institutional investment in XRP. The anticipation surrounding an XRP ETF is palpable, with Polymarket, a prediction market platform, currently showing an 81% probability of approval in 2025.
The rationale behind this optimism is clear. An XRP ETF would provide a more accessible and regulated avenue for institutional investors to gain exposure to the cryptocurrency.3 This increased accessibility could significantly boost demand for XRP, driving its price upwards. The historical precedent of Bitcoin's price surge following the launch of Bitcoin ETFs further fuels this expectation.4 However, it's crucial to remember that past performance is not indicative of future results, and the regulatory landscape surrounding cryptocurrencies remains fluid.
Price Predictions: $3 and Beyond?
The prospect of an XRP ETF has naturally led to a flurry of price predictions. While some analysts remain cautious, suggesting that XRP might remain within its current range-bound trading pattern this weekend, others are far more bullish. Some predictions suggest that a favorable outcome regarding the ETF could propel XRP prices to new heights, potentially even exceeding $3.5
These optimistic forecasts are often linked to Bitcoin's performance.6 The narrative goes that when Bitcoin reaches new all-time highs, XRP tends to follow suit, experiencing significant price appreciation. One particularly bullish prediction suggests that XRP could soar past $10 when Bitcoin makes new highs. While such a dramatic price increase is undoubtedly enticing, it's essential to treat these predictions with a degree of skepticism. The cryptocurrency market is notoriously volatile, and numerous factors can influence XRP's price, making accurate long-term predictions challenging.7
The Rival Factor: A 5000% Rally and its Implications
Adding another layer of complexity to the XRP narrative is the emergence of a new rival cryptocurrency that has recently experienced a staggering 5000% rally. While the specifics of this rival and the sustainability of its rally remain to be seen, its existence underscores the competitive landscape of the cryptocurrency market. The success of a competing cryptocurrency could potentially draw investment away from XRP, impacting its price trajectory.
This highlights a crucial point: XRP's future is not solely dependent on the ETF approval or Bitcoin's performance. The cryptocurrency's utility, its adoption by financial institutions, and its ability to differentiate itself from other digital assets will also play significant roles in determining its long-term success.8
Range-Bound Trading: The Immediate Challenge
Before any potential ETF-driven price surge or Bitcoin-induced rally, XRP faces the immediate challenge of breaking free from its current range-bound trading pattern. The cryptocurrency has been trading within a relatively narrow price range for some time, frustrating many investors. Whether XRP can break out of this range this weekend or in the near future remains uncertain.
Several factors could contribute to a breakout, including positive news regarding the ETF, increased trading volume, and a shift in overall market sentiment. Conversely, negative news, low trading volume, or a downturn in the broader cryptocurrency market could keep XRP confined within its current range.
The 2025 Timeline: Patience is Key
The 81% probability of XRP ETF approval in 2025, as indicated by Polymarket, suggests that investors may need to exercise patience. While the potential rewards of an ETF approval could be substantial, it's essential to maintain a long-term perspective. The cryptocurrency market is known for its volatility, and short-term price fluctuations should not overshadow the long-term potential of XRP.9
Conclusion: A Wait-and-See Approach
XRP's future remains uncertain, with a mix of promising possibilities and potential challenges. The anticipation surrounding an XRP ETF, coupled with bullish price predictions tied to Bitcoin's performance, has created a sense of optimism within the community.10 However, the emergence of a new rival and the immediate challenge of breaking free from range-bound trading serve as reminders of the complexities and uncertainties that lie ahead.
Investors should adopt a cautious yet optimistic approach, carefully monitoring developments related to the ETF, Bitcoin's price action, and the competitive landscape of the cryptocurrency market. While the potential for significant price appreciation exists, it's crucial to acknowledge the risks and avoid making investment decisions based solely on speculation. As 2025 approaches, the XRP community will be watching closely, hoping that the promise of an ETF will finally translate into tangible gains for the cryptocurrency.
XRPCRYPTOCAP:XRP has completed a Liquidity Sweep of the CRT low.
If we are able to break through the 50% target of $2.83, our next price target will be $3+. With more ETF news on the horizon, retail adoption, banks offering crypto options, and the new Administration being bullish. We should shoot through the $3 price target eyeing a new ATH towards the end of the month.
Stay tuned for more manipulation.
To say "bullish" for XRP#xrp price has formed bearish divergence and the price has flash dumped from 3 usd to 1.79 usd and bounced immediately. Well.. #ripple price has now choices to be bullish:
1. RSI must breakout.
2. MACD cross must happen.
3. CRYPTOCAP:XRP must not lose 2.20 #usd permanently.
4. CRYPTOCAP:XRP must breakout 4 usd with weekly closings.
XRPUSD Don't miss this rally to $12.500Last time we analyzed XRP (November 16 2024, see chart below), we called the start of the new Parabolic Rally of the Cycle:
As you can see it couldn't be more timely, as the rally started on the aggressive mode of 2017 and easily broke above last Cycle's Top. Since the 2017 is the path it chose, we take a closer look today between the two Cycles in order to formulate the next Target.
XRP's 2017 Cycle is characterized by three separate rallies and amazingly enough, all three have been of around +1300%. Assuming the 2025 rally phase holds the same degree of symmetry among its different rallies, we can assume that since November - January has shown a +600% rise roughly, we should be expecting the new that is starting to be of the same % increase.
This gives us a $12.500 Target.

SWIFT going Live
XRP | BIG NEWS | How XRP Gets to $10A few weeks ago I made an update about rumors of Bank of America using XRP for its internal transactions.
The United States is the world’s largest economy, with a GDP of about $27 trillion. If a major like Bank of America were to adopt the use of XRP, consider how it processes trillions of dollars every day. Imagine what this can do for the market cap. Currently, these transactions are run through traditional payment systems like SWIFT and FedWire. But if Ripple can come in with a real cost saving advantage, it's very likely that other banks may follow.
Apart from internal transactions. these banks play a key role in global financial transactions, which means that any shift towards the XRP could lead to massive liquidity inflows and increased daily trading volume for the currency.
In case of limited adoption within US banks, the price may rise to $2-5 in the medium term.
In the event of widespread adoption within the United States, if XRP becomes a core part of the operations of major banks, the price could reach $10-20, but this would require fundamental changes in the financial infrastructure.
In the event of global adoption led by the United States, the price could range between $20 and $50, but this requires years of development and legal regulation.

XRP Ripple Has Almost Finished 12-Years Cycle!Hello, Skyrexians!
Today we have the huge warning for all BINANCE:XRPUSDT holders because this asset has finished the 12 year cycle and the major correction is incoming. We don't tell you that the top has been already reached in this cycle, it can set the slightly higher high, but potential is very low.
Let's take a look at the monthly time frame. We have seen 5 years of the triangle wave 4 which has been ended with the green dot on Bullish/Bearish Reversal Bar Indicator . After that we are now seeing the wave 5. This wave has reached $3.5 at the top. It was the target zone, that's why the next move is larger correction. Target for it is approximately $0.1 at 0.5 Fibonacci.
Best regards,

XRP/USDT Short Opportunity: Daily CHoCH and Fresh Supply Zone XRP/USDT is presenting a high-probability short opportunity as it approaches key technical levels. A Change of Character (CHoCH) on the daily timeframe signals bearish momentum, while a fresh H1 supply zone at $2.42 could serve as a strong resistance point. With these factors aligning, a potential downside move to the $2.18 level is in focus.
Key Technical Factors Supporting the Short
Daily CHoCH Formation:
XRP/USDT has printed a CHoCH on the daily chart, indicating a shift from bullish to bearish market structure. This signals a possible trend reversal as sellers begin to take control.
H1 Fresh Supply Zone at $2.42:
On the H1 timeframe, a newly formed supply zone around $2.42 aligns with the bearish narrative. This zone is likely to act as a strong resistance, providing an ideal entry point for short positions.
Target Level at $2.18:
If the supply zone holds, the next logical support level lies at $2.18, making this a reasonable take-profit target.
Risk Considerations
Volume Confirmation: Ensure there is bearish momentum (increased sell volume) as price taps the supply zone.
Invalidation: A clean break above $2.45 would invalidate the short setup.
Phemex Analysis #57: How to Trade XRP Like A ProXRP has been on a wild ride. Following our last analysis on December 11th , XRP peaked at $3.40, only to plummet nearly 50% to $1.76 after forming a third higher top with RSI divergence. Recently, we've seen a resurgence, with XRP climbing back up to around $2.36 – a 34% rebound. But where does it go from here? Is this a prime "buy the dip" opportunity for long-term holders, or is further downside on the horizon? Let's explore some potential scenarios.
Scenario 1: Building a Base for a Comeback
Imagine XRP consolidating its recent gains. Instead of another sharp drop, it finds a footing, establishing a base around $2, or even down to $1.80 if current support falters.
This scenario would be characterized by: Accumulation signs near these levels, with higher RSI values and lower trading volume compared to the previous declines. This could indicate renewed buying interest.
Pro Tips:
Closely monitor volume and RSI. If they align with base-building conditions (higher RSI and lower volume), consider gradually entering long positions. Crucially, set stop-losses below key support levels to manage risk.
Scenario 2: The Bear's Grip Tightens
Now, picture this: The recent rally loses steam, and XRP breaks below critical support. A sharp drop below $2, accompanied by high trading volume and lower RSI compared to the fall from $3.40, could signal further trouble.
In this bearish scenario, traders should brace for potentially deeper declines towards support zones around $1.3, $1.0 or even historical lows seen in past bear markets.
Pro Tips:
Exercise caution. Avoid entering trades until a clear direction emerges. Consider shorting opportunities if the price breaks below key supports (e.g., near or below current lows) with higher volume and lower RSI than previous drops.
Scenario 3: A Period of Calm – Consolidation
Another possibility is that XRP enters a period of consolidation, fluctuating between resistance around $3 and support near $2. During this period of reduced volatility:
Traders can capitalize using Phemex Grid trading bots to capitalize profits from these small price fluctuations.
Pro Tips:
Set up long grid bots near the lower boundary (support) to buy as prices rebound. Position short grid bots near the upper boundary (resistance) to sell as prices approach. Remember, stop-losses are essential to manage risk if the price breaks out above resistance or falls below support.
The Big Picture: Staying Ahead of the Curve
Trading XRP requires a keen awareness of both broader cryptocurrency market trends and Ripple-specific news, such as regulatory developments that could impact investor confidence.
Whether you're navigating a sharp drop (Scenario 2), capitalizing on consolidation (Scenario 3), or preparing for other potential scenarios, discipline and adaptability are paramount. By staying informed, managing risk, and adapting to changing conditions, you can trade XRP Like A Pro!

XRP Under Pressure: Inflows RiseXRP, the cryptocurrency closely associated with Ripple Labs, finds itself at a precarious crossroads. While the digital asset has shown glimpses of potential in the past, recent market indicators paint a concerning picture, with traders increasingly taking short positions and exchange inflows on the rise. This bearish sentiment is further compounded by negative perpetual funding rates, suggesting a prevailing bias towards short positions in the derivatives market. Despite these challenges, pockets of optimism remain, with some analysts predicting a brighter future for XRP and its underlying technology.
Negative Funding Rates and Short Positions
Perpetual futures contracts, a popular instrument among cryptocurrency traders, allow investors to speculate on the price of an asset without an expiration date. Funding rates associated with these contracts reflect the sentiment of the market. A positive funding rate indicates that traders are willing to pay a premium to hold long positions, signaling bullish sentiment. Conversely, a negative funding rate suggests that short positions are dominant, indicating a bearish outlook.
Currently, XRP's perpetual funding rates are consistently negative, a clear sign that traders are overwhelmingly betting against the cryptocurrency. This bearish bias is a cause for concern, as it can create a self-fulfilling prophecy, where negative sentiment leads to further price declines, triggering more short positions and exacerbating the downward spiral.
Rising Exchange Inflows
Another worrying trend for XRP is the increasing inflows into cryptocurrency exchanges. When investors deposit their XRP holdings into exchanges, it often signals an intention to sell. A surge in exchange inflows can put downward pressure on the price of XRP, as the increased supply of the cryptocurrency on exchanges can outstrip demand.
The combination of negative funding rates and rising exchange inflows paints a grim picture for XRP in the short term. These indicators suggest that traders are anticipating further price declines and are positioning themselves accordingly.
XRP Ledger Stability and Innovation
Despite the bearish price outlook, the XRP Ledger (XRPL), the underlying blockchain technology behind XRP, has demonstrated resilience and innovation. Recently, the XRPL experienced a brief downtime, raising concerns about its stability. However, the network quickly "self-healed," showcasing its robust design and ability to recover from disruptions.
Ripple's CTO, David Schwartz, explained that the XRPL is designed to withstand potential failures, even in scenarios where all validators might perceive an issue with the network. This built-in redundancy and fault tolerance are crucial for ensuring the long-term stability and reliability of the XRPL.
Furthermore, the XRPL has witnessed the growing adoption of its stablecoin, RLUSD. In just two months, RLUSD has facilitated over 105,000 transactions on the XRPL, demonstrating the increasing demand for stablecoins within the XRP ecosystem. The success of RLUSD highlights the potential of the XRPL to support a wide range of financial applications and use cases.
The Path Ahead for XRP
XRP finds itself at a critical juncture. The negative funding rates and rising exchange inflows indicate a bearish short-term outlook. However, the resilience of the XRPL, the growing adoption of RLUSD, and the persistent optimism of some market participants suggest that XRP's story is far from over.
The cryptocurrency market is known for its volatility, and predicting future price movements with certainty is impossible. While the current indicators are concerning, they do not necessarily dictate the long-term fate of XRP. The cryptocurrency's future will depend on a variety of factors, including regulatory developments, technological advancements, and market sentiment.
For now, XRP investors should remain cautious and closely monitor market trends. The negative funding rates and rising exchange inflows should serve as a warning sign, but they should not overshadow the underlying potential of the XRPL and the ongoing developments within the XRP ecosystem. Only time will tell whether XRP can overcome its current challenges and fulfill the lofty expectations of its most ardent supporters.
XRP: Will people who missed out get another chance?KRAKEN:XRPUSD
So, as we made over 900% in our XRP buys (Appreciate everyone who messaged me and thank me - you should be proud for holding and being patient as you were rewarded heavily! ), lets see if there is a chance we go lower again.
As always, anything is possible in crypto, just yesterday we saw a huge drop , confirming that crypto havent changed at all.
As price rejected ATH and started retracing we can look at the points where it could go. Just a simple Trendline can mark a spot of reversal. We can see that price is respecting that trendline over the years , and needs/should be tested again.
With that trendline we have two accumulation zones - marked on the chart. This is the place where I would look to reinvest those big gains. As we were selling on the way up and on high prices. . we do not need very low prices to make a another amazing ROI.
So first zone ( BUY ZONE ) corresponds with the trendline and is more likely to happen.
Second zone ( BIG BUY ZONE ) could happen if we get some extension.
Third zone ( ALL IN ACCUMULATION ZONE ) is very less likely to happen but we need to keep that in mind as that is accumulation zone that was left untested. And here would be optimal and best buys that everyone would wish they happen.
So again, this is a long term analysis (you saw how other played out and we made a big money and % gain), so once again BE PATIENT and play it SMART.
