XRP Bulls Charge: Will $3 Finally Fall in 2025’s Make-or-Break Rally?

XRP's grinding ascent faces its ultimate test—a stubborn $3 resistance level that's become crypto's version of Wall Street's glass ceiling.

The Setup: After months of consolidation, XRP whales are accumulating at levels not seen since the 2021 bull run. On-chain data shows exchange reserves draining faster than a hedge fund's credibility during an SEC investigation.

Technical Tightrope: The $3 barrier represents more than psychological resistance—it's where 72% of XRP's circulating supply last changed hands. Break it, and FOMO could trigger a liquidity cascade. Fail, and we're looking at yet another 'almost' story in crypto's hall of near-misses.

Market Mechanics: Unlike Bitcoin's institutional plays, XRP's fate hinges on retail traders and a handful of true believers. When the 20-week MA crossed above the 50-week last month, it signaled the most bullish technical formation since the pre-SEC lawsuit days.

The Bottom Line: Either XRP shatters $3 by Q4 2025—proving the 'digital payment asset' thesis—or joins the graveyard of 'next big things' that couldn't outrun regulatory uncertainty. Place your bets.

XRP, one of the most popular cryptocurrencies, has climbed back NEAR the $3 mark after a recent dip. However, this bounce hasn’t built enough strength to confirm a true recovery. 

Veteran trader CasiTrades warns it may be too early to celebrate. While she sees potential for a breakout, she also cautions that this short-term MOVE could be a trap. If it does, though, she believes it could quickly rally toward $3.41.

Bulls Struggle Near $3 Resistance

In her latest tweet, veteran trader CasiTrades highlighted that XRP is still stuck inside a falling wedge and is coiling just below the $3 resistance. According to her, this level, also known as the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement, has acted as a ceiling for almost 20 hours. 

Despite repeated attempts, bulls have not yet broken through.

At the same time, she highlighted the strong support at $2.915, which matches the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement. Buyers have been actively protecting this level, refusing to let the price fall further.

Right now, XRP is trading between $2.96 and $3—a very narrow range. While this may seem small, in crypto trading, such tight spaces often suggest that a big move could be coming soon.

XRP Eyeing $3.41

CasiTrades mentioned that structurally, nothing has broken down. This means the overall market trend is still intact. If XRP can climb above $2.96 and stay there, it WOULD be the first clear sign that strength is returning. 

According to CasiTrades, the next resistance targets to watch are $3.21 and $3.41, both of which could come into play if momentum picks up

She also noted that RSI on smaller timeframes is showing bullish divergence. Simply put, this is a hint that the sellers are getting tired, and buyers may be preparing for a push.

As of now, xrp price is trading around $3, reflecting a jump of 1.8% seen in the last 24 hours, with the market cap hitting $178 billion.
