Will XRP Price Rally To $1 After Hitting Monthly High?

Will XRP Price Rally To $1 After Hitting Monthly High?

XRP price has recently witnessed a notable uptick, hitting its highest level since early October. The cryptocurrency, currently trading above the key support level of $0.52, is testing resistance near $0.56. This increase has raised questions about whether XRP could rally further, potentially reaching the $1 mark.

XRP Price Eyes $1 as Momentum Builds, Can Bulls Break Resistance?

XRP price hit a monthly high of $0.578, its peak since early October. This price surge has been boosted by strong investor interest, reflecting broader optimism across the crypto market. More so XRP price is now testing a critical resistance level at $0.56, which, if surpassed, could pave the way for a rally toward $0.60 or even higher.

However, caution remains as technical indicators suggest potential resistance ahead. An impending “death cross” formation, with the 50-day moving average closing in on the 200-day moving average, may indicate a bearish shift if realized. This pattern has historically preceded downward trends in XRP prices.

Additionally, XRP price is supported by positive momentum signals. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator shows the MACD line above the signal line, suggesting sustained buying interest. This bullish crossover, coupled with positive histogram bars, indicates that momentum remains on the upside.

If the MACD line continues above the signal line, XRP price could maintain its upward trajectory, potentially moving closer to the $1 mark.

Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) for XRP sits at around 67, nearing the overbought zone. While this suggests that XRP price has been experiencing strong buying pressure, it also indicates the possibility of a short-term consolidation. A further increase in RSI beyond 70 could trigger a price correction, as overbought conditions often precede pullbacks.

Speculation on SEC Chair’s Removal Fuels Optimism for Ripple

Consequently, market analyst Ben “BitBoy” Armstrong has speculated that Ripple and XRP may benefit if SEC Chair Gary Gensler is removed from office. With recent political shifts in the United States, some believe that a change in SEC leadership could lead to regulatory leniency for Ripple and other crypto firms. BitBoy suggests that such a move could attract capital into XRP, further driving its value upward.

Adding to this speculation, Ripple’s CEO recently echoed similar sentiments, advocating for new leadership at the SEC. While no official announcements have been made regarding potential changes, the market remains optimistic about the possible impact on price. Moreover, Brad Garlinghouse suggested that Gary Gensler is accountable for Democrats’ election performance.

At press time, XRP price is $0.55, reflecting a 3% increase in the past 24 hours with a market cap of $31.68 billion. Should the Ripple token manage to break and hold above this level, it could set the stage for a rally toward the $1 milestone. However, a failure to overcome this resistance may result in a pullback to the $0.52 support.
