XRP Price Resumes Bullish Trend as $0.30 Remains Critical Target

The people who assumed XRP’s bull run was over will be quite annoyed when they look at the charts right now. Contrary to what those people had expected, the XRP price is still going up as we speak. Thanks to a 6.66% increase in value over the past 24 hours, we now have an XRP price of just over US$0.27. The quest to reach US$0.30 is still in full effect.

XRP Price Continues Upward

When the Bitcoin price underwent a brief correction over the past 36 hours, all alternative cryptocurrencies were affected as well. Even though Bitcoin is still recovering as we speak, Ripple’s native asset is making some headway ahead of the rest. More specifically, the XRP price has gone up quite a bit over the past 24 hours, slowly pushing the value to US$0.30. Although it remains to be seen whether that goal can ever be reached, things look promising right now.

With the XRP price currently sitting at US$0.2726, it is clear the momentum is still very much present. Considering that XRP has been clinging to the US$0.26 level for quite some time now, the XRP price changes will likely take place well behind the decimal point for the time being. That doesn’t have to be a bad thing per se, though, as it still shows demand for this blockchain banking currency is increasing as we speak.

At the same time, it is good to see the XRP market capitalization remain well above the US$10 billion mark. One has to remember that the XRP price has exploded in value compared to a year ago. A lot of investors have made solid returns by just holding onto their XRP balances, although there is plenty of profit-taking to contend with as well.  The chart of the past few days reflects this perfectly, as the XRP price has bounced back and forth between US$0.24 and US$0.27 all week long.

Thanks to almost half a billion US dollars’ worth of trading volume, XRP is more than capable of sustaining its upward momentum right now. This does not guarantee the XRP price will ever hit US$0.30, mind you, but it seems a plausible outcome for the time being. Considering how the currency has been gaining value in both USD and BTC terms over the past 24 hours, it is evident the bull run isn’t over just yet.

The vast majority of XRP trading volume originates from the Bithumb exchange. Coinone and Korbit complete the top three as we speak. This growing demand from South Korean traders should not be overlooked by any means. They have been flocking to XRP for quite some time now, and the rest of the world is now following their lead by the looks of things. Bithumb has four times the volume of Coinone, though, which is pretty spectacular.

Although the future looks bright for XRP, cryptocurrency markets remain extremely volatile at all times. Any gains made today can be wiped out in an hour from now, for all we know. It will be interesting to see if the XRP price can reach US$0.30 in the coming hours and days. All signs point toward a positive outcome, but no one can accurately predict the future whatsoever.
