Bitcoin‘s price has risen above the $50,000 level, and in this process, XRP also took its share of the increase. In the last 24 hours, there was an approximate 4% increase in the price of XRP. A recent analysis by one of the leading analysts in the cryptocurrency world, Cryptoinsightuk (@Cryptoinsightuk), pointed out both positive and negative factors affecting the XRP price while also emphasizing the effects of Bitcoin’s rise.
Positive News for XRP
In the analysis by the analyst, conflicting signals were notable in XRP’s weekly close. On the positive side, the formation of a weekly candlestick that confirmed a critical support level was seen, which could indicate potential for an upward trend.
The last time such a candlestick formed was in October 2023, and following a similar formation, there was an approximate 50% increase over three weeks, leading to a movement above $0.7.
According to the analyst, despite emerging FUD, XRP’s strong outlook continues after bouncing back from the new bottom support level. Despite several events in the past weeks, the price has held strong and only retreated to the $0.48 level.
Negative News for XRP
However, according to analysts, there are also negatives for XRP. The rising candlestick had a flaw—it was without significant volume. There is an important resistance level for XRP specifically between $0.56 and $0.59. It appears to be squeezed between this region and the support found at the $0.485 to $0.46 level.
Cryptoinsightuk also emphasizes the potential impact Bitcoin could have on the future of XRP during this period. A sustained move above the $50,000 level for Bitcoin could open the door to a more solid outlook for XRP.
Current Situation for XRP
After climbing above $50,000 a few days ago, it fell back below this level following data released in the US on February 13. Later, it regained the $50,000 price level and found buyers at the $512,260 level with a 4% increase in the last 24 hours. There was also a 4% increase in the XRP price, and the price rose back above the $0.55 level.
Cryptoinsightuk stated that if Bitcoin manages to maintain a strong appearance, XRP could potentially experience an increase and surpass the critical resistance level. He completed his statement with the words, “Price sentiment determines sentiment, and sentiment determines price.”
