XRP has shown a notable increase of 3% over the past 24 hours, trading above $3, marking a 17% rise from its low of $2.69 on September 1. Market analysts are optimistic about XRP’s potential for further gains, citing several fundamental and technical indicators.
Technical analysis suggests that XRP may have various bullish patterns at play. One significant formation is a bull flag pattern on the weekly chart, which could suggest a breakout that may propel the price as high as $15. A smaller bull flag pattern identified in mid-June was confirmed this week when XRP breached the upper boundary at $3, establishing a measured target of $5.80, translating to a potential gain of 46% from its current level. Analyst Crypto Pulse commented on the daily chart, noting that XRP’s current setup signals a likely continuation toward $5 or higher.
In addition to the smaller pattern, a larger bull flag that has been in development since November 2024 indicates even greater potential for upward movement. Following a breakout in July that took XRP’s price above $3.66, this formation sets a target that could see XRP rise to $15.80, or up by 408% from current valuations. Egrag Crypto’s fractal analysis also suggests the possibility of XRP reaching between $6 and $7 by mid-November.
Adding to the excitement, the REX-Osprey XRP ETF began trading on U.S. exchanges, having passed the SEC’s review period without objections. This marks the first U.S. spot ETF for XRP, operating under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which provides a more straightforward path to market compared to the Securities Act of 1933 used for Bitcoin ETF approvals. Market experts believe this launch could attract significant institutional investment into XRP.
The ETF’s debut is viewed as a litmus test for the demand for XRP, especially in light of the nearly $1 billion in assets gathered by futures-based XRP ETFs. Furthermore, Ripple’s recent partnership with DBS Bank and Franklin Templeton aims to establish a tokenized money market fund on the XRP Ledger, which could further enhance the cryptocurrency’s real-world utility and increase network demand.
As these developments unfold, the landscape for XRP continues to look promising, making it a focal point for both retail and institutional investors. However, it’s important to note that investment decisions carry risks, and stakeholders are encouraged to conduct thorough research before proceeding.
