The entire crypto market is enjoying a strong surge, yet XRP has been lagging, remaining stuck below the crucial $0.55 level since the start of October. Analysts and investors are closely watching for signs of strength and confirmation that XRP is poised for significant gains in this market cycle.

As the broader market continues to push higher, the coming days are pivotal for XRP. Investors hope for a breakout from the weeks of sideways consolidation that have kept its price action subdued. 


A decisive move above $0.55 could ignite bullish momentum and put XRP on track to catch up with the broader market rally. For now, the market eagerly awaits further developments, with many anticipating that XRP’s moment may finally be approaching. XRP Ledger Activity Signals A Shift


XRP remains one of the most popular altcoins in the crypto market, yet many investors are increasingly concerned as the price has struggled to reclaim local highs around $0.65. Despite the lack of upward momentum, critical data from Santiment offers a glimmer of hope. 


The XRP Ledger recently experienced a significant spike in activity, with 35,799 unique wallets making at least one transfer daily, marking the highest activity level in over three months. In addition, 3,858 new wallets were created in a single day, the largest increase over seven months. XRP Ledger spiked in active wallets | Source: Santiment on X


This surge in network activity is a promising sign for XRP, as spikes in active wallets and new addresses often precede major price movements. The growing interest in XRP could be an early indicator of an impending shift in price action, especially as the broader market trends upwards. 


However, the price must still exceed the local highs of around $0.65 to confirm a bullish trend. While the network data points to potential growth, the coming weeks will be crucial for XRP’s price movement.  Related Reading Bitcoin Whales ‘Grew Substantially’ During Last Dip, Data Shows Large-Holder Accumulation 1 day ago


If it can reclaim key resistance levels, XRP may finally align with the overall market’s bullish sentiment, providing a more optimistic outlook for its investors. Price Action: Technical Levels To Watch

A successful breakout above the 200 EMA, followed by consolidation and holding it as support, would likely signal a surge to higher supply zones around $0.60 and potentially $0.65. This breakout would confirm renewed bullish momentum, encouraging investors to wait for a clear upward trend.


However, if XRP fails to break above the 200 EMA and these critical resistance levels, a retrace to $0.52 or even lower could be imminent. Failing to breach this resistance would point to further consolidation or even a correction as the market seeks lower liquidity levels.  Related Reading Solana Struggles To Break $160 Resistance As Top Analyst Predicts A Coming Surge 2 days ago


As XRP continues to test this key technical level, the next few days will be pivotal in determining whether the altcoin can finally break out of its range-bound trading and follow the broader market’s bullish sentiment.
