Summary

XRP traded near $1.39 on Tuesday after briefly reaching about $1.41, as the broader crypto market recovered alongside easing oil prices. The move kept attention on the $1.40 resistance area after XRP had previously climbed from $1.3840 to $1.4065 in early Asia trading on May 4 with stronger volume. The latest source adds that the token again tested that zone during a wider market rebound, but does not provide any new confirmed breakout beyond the intraday move near $1.41.
