XRP‘s recent price increase has once again drawn investors’ attention to the altcoin, signaling a resurgence in confidence. Following the completion of Bitcoin‘s (BTC) fourth block reward halving, a recovery in a certain segment of the altcoin market paralleled XRP’s upward momentum, creating optimism among investors.
An Analyst Sets Three Target Levels for XRP
Stoking discussions about a potential rally, cryptocurrency analyst EGRAG Crypto used Fibonacci levels as targets to make a bullish prediction for XRP. The analyst summarized the expectations for the altcoin’s rise and emphasized its current position in a historical support area reminiscent of previous market cycles.
Drawing parallels with past price movements, the analyst forecasts a quick and strong price rally for XRP in the short term, providing specific price targets at Fibonacci levels of $1.272, $1.414, and $1.618. This optimistic analysis by the analyst has sparked speculation among investors, with discussions intensifying around the likelihood of XRP reaching $1.2 and beyond.
Open Interest Increases
As expectations for developments that could boost XRP’s price rise, investors anticipate a strong breakout due to the altcoin’s historical performance and market dynamics. During this period of heightened bullish sentiment, the Open Interest (OI) in XRP derivatives experienced a notable increase, reflecting growing interest in the altcoin.
According to data provided by CoinGlass, XRP’s OI increased by 0.46%, reaching $529.98 million, indicating that investors are mobilizing to capitalize on potential price movements. This rise in OI feeds and strengthens the prevailing bullish expectations, signaling increased market participation and confidence in future prospects.
With the latest data, XRP has seen a 3.12% increase in the last 24 hours, trading at $0.5143. Despite the price increase, the trading volume has decreased by 30.46% during the same time frame, standing at $1.41 billion.
