Ripple (XRP) Holds Critical Support - Double-Digit Rally Imminent?
XRP bulls dig in as price defends crucial level.
The Battle Line Holds
Ripple's native token maintains its defensive position against bearish pressure, setting the stage for what could become a significant upward move. Market watchers note the resilience at current levels despite broader market uncertainty.
Technical Setup Screenshots Potential
Chart patterns suggest accumulation happening beneath the surface. The consolidation phase appears to be building energy for a breakout move that could surprise skeptics. Trading volume tells its own story - quiet but persistent interest from institutional players.
Regulatory Clouds Parting
With legal uncertainties gradually resolving, XRP finds itself positioned for a fundamental revaluation. The token that once faced existential threats now operates with clearer regulatory guidance than many competitors.
Could this be the calm before the storm? History shows that extended periods of sideways action often precede violent moves. Meanwhile, traditional finance continues to debate whether cryptocurrencies are 'real assets' while missing every major rally.
Gearing up for a New Pump?
Ripple’s XRP has followed the overall pullback of the cryptocurrency market, with its price tumbling by 8% in the past seven days. At the start of the business week, it dropped as low as $2.78 before rebounding to the current $2.85.
The popular analyst Ali Martinez noted that XRP successfully defended the critical support zone at $2.71, claiming this gives it a chance to jump back to $3.60 in the short term.

For their part, X user CRYPTOWZRD set $2.75 as the main daily support target. The analyst еnvisioned one more retest of $2.88, which could potentially result in a further price increase.
How About a New ATH?
Other market observers have outlined even more bullish predictions. The X user Galaxy claimed that XRP’s price has recently consolidated in the same fashion it did back in 2017, or shortly before experiencing a gigantic rally.
“It will run again above all time highs when people least expect it,” the analyst added.
Dark Defender (an X user who often touches upon XRP’s price movements) also chipped in. In their view, the asset is nearing completion of the corrective action and is on the verge of a lift-off.
“After this consolidation, and reclaiming $3.333, nothing will be able to stop what’s coming,” Dark Defender forecasted.
Meanwhile, X user John Squire spread the rumor that additional spot XRP ETFs may receive a green light in the United States as early as this week. Such a development is likely to increase the interest in the asset and positively impact its price.
Recall that in mid-September, REX-Osprey introduced XRPR, marking the debut of the first spot XRP ETF in the US market. Its start was more than positive as it generated a trading volume of over $37 million on day one.
