XRP Set to Surge to $22 in the Upcoming Bull Market Rally

Technical Analysis

XRP/USD witnessed a 1.19% decline in the past 24 hours.

Examining the hourly chart reveals a downturn in XRP’s price following a false breakout above the resistance level at $0.6215. Absent any significant changes before the day concludes, the likelihood of a decline to the $0.61 range is considerable.

Zooming out to a larger time frame, XRP’s current trend leans more towards bearish than bullish, marked by its failure to reclaim the $0.64 zone.

Should this trend persist, traders should brace for a potential test of the support level at $0.5860.

A parallel scenario unfolds on the weekly chart. If the bar concludes in proximity to the support, indications point towards an impending breakout, leading to a descent towards the $0.55 zone by month-end. As of press time, XRP is valued at $0.61625.

XRP Will Hit $22 in The Next Bull Market Run

Cryptocurrency analyst Zach Rector has made a bold prediction regarding XRP, suggesting that the digital currency could surpass the $22 mark in the upcoming bullish market.

Rector discussed several projects developed by his team at Reaper, emphasizing the utilization of the XRP ledger, which is expected to fuel its growth potential and subsequent price increase.

The cryptocurrency startup founder informed users that introducing the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) sidechain to Ripple would enhance the network’s development. Rector views Ethereum as a slow and costly network, describing it as a “dying and limping horse for a long time.” Projects are expected to pivot towards XRP with EVM as a faster and more cost-effective option. He predicts a migration of tokens from Ethereum to the XRP ledger.

Apart from integrating EVM sidechains, the CEO also discussed the XLS-30 upgrade to introduce Automated Market Makers (AMM) for XRP. He mentioned that this could potentially increase the list of XRPL tokens delisted from exchanges due to their volume, subsequently contributing to the tokens’ price appreciation.
