XRP Price Is Up 2.8%, BitBoy Predicts Huge Pump If Trump Takes This Action

XRP price increased by 2.8% in the last following a market wide surge due to Bitcoin hitting $76,000, a new all-time high. Meanwhile, famous crypto influencer BitBoy has suggested that the price of XRP could surge if president-elect Donald Trump fires current SEC Chair Gary Gensler.

Will XRP Price Pump If Trump Fires Gensler

The recent Trump victory may have more in store for Ripple as multiple crypto commentators, high-profile figures, and a good portion of the crypto community urge President Trump to oust Gary Gensler.

Popular crypto YouTuber and commentator Ben ‘BitBoy’ Armstrong has said that XRP might be among the top 100 coins that pump the hardest. In an earlier interview, BitBoy said all meme coin money will flow into XRP in the next cycle, suggesting that this is the best asset.

On November 6, Ripple CEO also took to the X platform to congratulate Trump on his win and proposed the idea to “Fire Gensler. Day 1, No Delays.” He further proposed Christopher Giancarlo, Daniel Gallagher, or Brian Brooks as a replacement for Gensler.

However, speculations suggest that SEC’s Mark Uyeda is more likely to replace Gary Gensler over the earlier speculated Hester ‘Crypto Mom’ Peirce, a commissioner in the SEC appointed there by President Trump in 2018.

The price of XRP hovered around $0.5515 during New York pre-market hours after gaining 6% in the past week.

How High Could XRP Price Go If Gary Gensler Is Dismissed?

XRP rallied to $0.5739, its highest in 30 days, as Bitcoin soared to a new high above $76,400 following Trump’s election victory. This boosted the overall crypto market sentiment.

XRP price failed to sustain above the $0.55 resistance level and retraced to its current price. However, the Average Directional Index (ADX) is at 29.61, suggesting that volatility is still increasing. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 65.72, near the overbought region, but still has room to move. This could provide the boost needed to propel XRP above the resistance level.

How High Could XRP Price Go If Gary Gensler Is Dismissed?

If the price of XRP breaks close above the $0.55 resistance, it may trigger a short-term rally to $0.66, which coincides with a multi-month resistance that will take some struggle to beat. However, beyond that, XRP could soar to $0.94 or even $1.

If bears push the price below $0.5, the current bullish thesis would be invalidated. Despite past setbacks, Ripple’s regulatory clarity has improved, but its market performance lags behind that of peers like Solana (SOL) and Binance Coin (BNB).

Some skeptics argue Gensler’s removal may not spark significant XRP gains as hoped by BitBoy and others. Still, the community remains hopeful of the massive impact of Gensler’s resignation on XRP’s future price trajectory.
