Ripple is a technology that acts as both a cryptocurrency and a digital payment network for financial transactions. It was first released in 2012 and was co-founded by Chris Larsen and Jed McCaleb.
Ripple’s main process is a payment settlement asset exchange and remittance system, similar to the SWIFT system for international money and security transfers, which is used by banks and financial middlemen dealing across currencies.
The token used for the cryptocurrency is premined and utilizes the ticker symbol XRP. Ripple is the name of the company and the network, and XRP is the cryptocurrency token. The purpose of XRP is to serve as an intermediate mechanism of exchange between two currencies or networks – as a sort of temporary settlement layer.

XRP Technical Overview
A bullish ascending wedge pattern has formed on XRP’s daily chart after the altcoin’s price gradually printed higher highs and higher lows over the last 2 weeks. The base of the wedge is at the $0.4160 resistance level.
XRP’s price has broken above the base of the wedge in the last 24 hours and is still trading above the level at press time. There is, however, no confirmation as to whether or not this is a fakeout or a breakout.
Nevertheless, XRP’s price is making a move towards the next major resistance level at $0.4427. Once it approaches this level, bears may step in to drag XRP’s price back down to below the $0.4160 mark.
Technical indicators for XRP currently point towards a bullish outlook for XRP on its daily chart. The daily RSI indicator is one technical indicator that still flags bullish, with the daily RSI line positioned above the daily RSI SMA line. In addition to this, the daily RSI line is sloped positively towards overbought territory.
The other daily technical indicator that suggests a bullish outlook for XRP is the 9-day EMA line being positioned above the 20-day EMA line. Furthermore, the shorter EMA line is also offering XRP’s price some support.
The 4-hour chart for XRP also remains bullish as the 9 EMA line is positioned above the 20 EMA line on the 4-hour timeframe. The RSI line on the 4-hour chart is, however, sloped neutrally. This suggests that the market is in limbo as it awaits a trade opportunity.
