Ripple\u2019s XRP performed quite shaky between Christmas and New Year\u2019s Eve, with its price briefly plunging below $2. However, the bulls stepped in on the first two days of 2025, pushing the valuation to as high as $2.42. Currently, XRP is worth around $2.37 (per CoinGecko\u2019s data), representing a 12% increase on a 24-hour scale.

One factor potentially contributing to the solid resurgence is the overall revival of the cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin (BTC) surpassed $95,000, Ethereum (ETH) crossed $3,400, while Solana (SOL) charted a 9% daily pump to reach $206. <\/span><\/p>\n

Other leading digital assets well in the green today (January 2) include Dogecoin (DOGE), Cardano (ADA), Stellar (XLM), and many more. Meanwhile, the total market capitalization of the crypto sector jumped above $3.5 trillion again.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Another factor could be the rise of some essential XRP-related metrics. Data <\/span>shows<\/span><\/a> that the payment volume from one account to another and the number of executed transactions jumped to multi-week highs on January 1.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Such resurgences typically suggest heightened interest or activity in the XRP ecosystem. Positive trends in those indicators might reflect bullish sentiment, attracting more buyers and possibly triggering upward pressure on the valuation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s also interesting to note<\/a> that when Ripple released its monthly XRP tokens from Escrow, they included a note that said:<\/p>\n

January 20th is around the corner. Donald Trump will be in the WH, and we are going to make crypto great again!<\/p>\n

Recent XRP Predictions<\/span><\/h2>\n

While the price of XRP has skyrocketed by triple digits in the past year, numerous analysts believe the rally is far from over. X user Captain Faibik recently <\/span>claimed<\/span><\/a> that the asset \u201clooks promising\u201d for another 50% jump, setting $3.66 as the next target.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Earlier this week, JAVON MARKS and Ali Martinez also chipped in. <\/span>The former <\/span>thinks<\/span><\/a> XRP\u2019s <\/span>price condition as of late<\/span> resembles the one observed in 2017 (shortly before the bull run that took it to a new all-time high).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cPrices right now may only be getting ready to come out of an \u2018Intermission Phase\u2019 before yet another \u2018groundbreaking\u2019 bullish rally! It may be time to strap in,\u201d the X user assumed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For their part, Martinez envisioned a \u201cbig movement\u201d based on the squeezing Bollinger Bands. The technical indicator, developed by John Bollinger in the early 1980s, helps traders detect when an asset may be overbought or oversold and spot possible price breakouts or trend reversals.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tightening the bands means XRP has experienced relatively low volatility for a prolonged time, which could be a precursor of a <\/span>huge<\/span> rally or an intense pullback.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
