OPUSD Optimism

XRP is gaining traction, with one well-known expert predicting an all-time high in the $4 region. XRP has joined the crypto market rally, recently reaching $0.5740, up 11% from yesterday’s price of $0.514. Bitcoin’s record-breaking surge has provided a broader market boost, and XRP is capitalizing on this momentum to drive its price higher. For many investors, this is an encouraging indicator that the altcoin may ultimately recapture its upper price points.

Analyst CoinsKid, noted for his enormous following on social media site X, recently posted an analysis indicating that the XRP rise may have more potential to develop. Using a two-year weekly chart, CoinsKid found significant resistance and support levels, implying that it could break through to new highs. Is #xrp on its ways to $4? a new all-time high for this #crypto! Hold the green line and take out the orange line and a run to the upper red line would not surprise me. Best of luck CKC 🙌 pic.twitter.com/NYBl2igF9g — CoinsKid (@Coins_Kid) November 6, 2024 Technical Points To Watch CoinsKid’s chart shows three big XRP resistance points: $0.94, $1.50, and $2.50. These levels are critical because they have historically served as ceilings for XRP. For example, in July, the coin peaked at $0.94 before falling back, just after a court ruling declared the asset not a security. This was a major milestone, but the excitement faded when the price failed to remain above this level. The analyst believes that XRP will break through these resistance points without needing to retest the lower support level of $0.3798. If the altcoin continues on its current track, it might eventually reach a top of about $4, according to CoinsKid. For investors, this may mean significant profit, particularly if the market maintains its present bullish tone. Regulatory Hope Boosts Optimism The legal environment in the US is another thing that is making people feel good about XRP. Recent reports have it that when President-elect Donald Trump takes office in January 2025, he will replace Gary Gensler as Chairman of the SEC. Many in the crypto space are keeping a close interest on this theory, especially from XRP enthusiasts who feel that Gensler’s exit will speak well for a more positive perspective towards the altcoin and cryptos. The Trump campaign to reorganize the SEC has added to this optimism. Many think that removal of Gensler would give XRP ample freedom to operate without many legal barriers. Such a shift in the regulatory landscape could well be one big win for XRP, taking the price up. Related Reading: Binance Coin Breaks $600! Is There More Upside Ahead For BNB? Future Price Predictions Look Bright Looking forward, the price forecast for XRP also seems very promising. The analysts predict a 14% increase in the next three months, and its potential growth in six months is much higher, at 160%. A one-year prognosis would mean that the asset could get returns of over 100%. This makes the $4 goal not out of reach, given that Bitcoin has broken new grounds and the fundamentals of XRP are high. Finally, a combination of technical resiliency, market momentum, and future regulatory reforms might propel XRP to previously uncharted territory. For XRP holders, this might be an exciting trip to what many believe would be a new all-time high. Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView
