$XRP jumped from a low of $1.30 to a daily peak of $1.39 in the last 24 hours. As of this writing, $XRP exchanges hands at $1.38, representing a 5.19% increase within the time frame. The price uptick has triggered increased engagement among traders, with volume spiking by 84.06% to $2.93 billion.
Although the market suggests a bullish outlook, market participants remain cautious as they watch the $1.40 to $1.42 resistance zone. The ability of $XRP to breach this crucial level could confirm stronger upward momentum.
However, if the current bullish sentiment fails to push the coin’s price up, it might retest the $1.30 support.
In the liquidation that occurred within the last 12 hours, long position traders also suffered a mild loss of $190,830.
Generally, the $XRP’s space has some events that are also fueling upward momentum. Notably, at the $XRP Tokyo 2026 conference, Ripple projected $33 trillion in on-chain stablecoin volume by the end of 2026. The projection sparked bullish sentiment among investors in the community.
