XRP

Summary

XRP surged 6% from $2.83 to a high of $3.03 before closing at $3.00, driven by breakout momentum and institutional flows. The rally was capped by selling at $3.03, reflecting a broader altcoin rally amid macroeconomic pressures. Despite recent gains, XRP remains down nearly 17% from its July all-time high of $3.65, with bearish signals emerging from the MVRV ratio and declining trading volumes.
