Ripple (XRP) Just Posted a Huge Network Jump: Here’s the Level That Matters Now

XRP has flipped the script this week, emerging as one of the market’s strongest performers after weeks of lackluster performance. The crypto asset briefly tapped $1.76 before stabilizing near $1.50. A sharp rise in network participation has now added fresh weight to the rally.

Higher Levels Ali Martinez reported that active addresses climbed from 47,180 to 356,070, an astonishing 654.71% increase in days. A spike of this size usually reflects a sharp rise in participation and can come alongside increased volatility in the token’s price.

If this is really the start of a new XRP trend, analyst Casi Trades said that the $1.20 level could soon become a thing of the past. She expects the asset to first move toward $1.78, followed by a pullback to roughly $1.30 before another push to $2.57.

The full five-wave structure could eventually take XRP to around $2.90, according to the analysis, completing Wave 1 of a much larger macro Wave 3. A later correction may bring the asset back toward $1.65, which could turn the resistance seen today into support.
