  • XRP hits $2.30 after Fed pause, 138% volume surge confirms bullish buying
  • MACD crossover and RSI at 55.41 show XRP rally still has upside room
  • XRP breaks past $2.21 resistance as Bitcoin clears $100K with strength

XRP saw a strong surge in momentum over the past 24 hours, gaining traction as trading volume more than doubled. This rally came as the broader cryptocurrency market rebounded following a temporary pullback. Investor sentiment quickly shifted after the U.S. Federal Reserve chose to hold interest rates steady, maintaining the benchmark range at 4.25% to 4.5%. 

While the initial market reaction to the Fed’s decision saw some price dips, the pullback proved short-lived. Aggressive buying quickly emerged, driving a widespread recovery across major digital assets. XRP responded decisively to this environment.

XRP’s Bullish Price Action Breaks Past Key Resistance

After a brief dip earlier in the trading session (potentially near $2.11, according to some charts like CoinMarketCap), XRP reversed course sharply on strong buying interest. The price then pushed through previous resistance levels, establishing a new higher high around $2.30. 

This movement signals a clear shift in trend for XRP, following a period of sideways action and minor losses.

Earlier resistance around the $2.21-$2.23 area may now act as initial support. Prior to this surge, key support was noted near $2.11–$2.12, where buyers had previously stepped in. With immediate upside barriers cleared, traders now watch for XRP to establish new, higher targets.

Soaring Volume and Strong Technicals Buttress XRP Rally

XRP’s trading volume exploded by 138.2% during this rally, according to TradingView data, reflecting renewed and intense market interest. This volume surge strongly supports the price advance and reinforces the breakout. Meanwhile, the token’s market capitalization held firm near $129.58 billion, indicating sustained investor confidence.

Technical indicators add weight to the bullish case. The MACD suggests a fresh crossover, while the RSI at 55.41 shows upward momentum without nearing overbought territory. Consequently, XRP appears poised for further upside if the broader market rally continues.
