Yahoo Finance Latest Ripple price and analysis (XRP to USD)
Ripple’s XRP token is on the brink of a major breakout following a fruitful start to the year that has seen it rise by more than 88%.
At the time of writing it is trading at around $0.33 after obliterating the $0.30 level of support for the first time since August 2019.
Upside targets remain at both $0.35 and $0.37 although it wouldn’t be out of the blue for XRP to surge all the way to $0.40 over the coming weeks.
In the past 48-hours alone it was up by 16% as spectators begin to believe in a newfound cryptocurrency bull market that has been spurred by the impact of coronavirus on the global economy.
Another factor in the surge of cryptocurrencies is the upcoming Bitcoin halving, which will commence in May.
Block rewards for miners will be slashed from 12.5BTC to 6.25BTC per block, an event that has historically caused a hike in the price of cryptocurrencies as supply dries up amid mounting demand.
However, despite much of the attention being focused on Bitcoin, altcoins like Ethereum and XRP have stolen the show this week by trading above all major moving averages moving into the typically low volume weekend.
