XRP has rallied 4.4% over the past 24 hours to trade near $1.60, outpacing Bitcoin and the broader cryptocurrency market. The move comes as trading volume jumped to $7.67 billion and Binance XRP reserves reached their highest level in three months.
Altcoin Strength Fuels XRP Rally
While Bitcoin gained just 0.05% and the overall crypto market rose 0.56%, XRP climbed 4.40% in the same period. The token also gained 24.52% over the past seven days, breaking out of a multi-week consolidation range.
CoinMarketCap’s Altcoin Season Index rose 54.55% over the past week to 52, signaling broader strength among altcoins relative to Bitcoin. However, the index remains below the 75 threshold that officially marks an “altcoin season.”
XRP’s daily trading volume surged 8.57% to $7.67 billion, according to CoinMarketCap live data. Prices may vary slightly across exchanges as trading continues.
Analyst Sets $10 XRP Target
Crypto commentator Ash Crypto posted on X that he is “aiming for USD 10” for XRP, calling the current market the start of the “biggest bull run in crypto history.” His post also projected targets of $250,000 for Bitcoin, $10,000 for Ethereum, and $1,000 for Solana.
No timeframe was provided for these targets. For XRP to reach $10 from $1.60, it would require a 525% increase, far above the token’s immediate resistance levels.
Key Support and Resistance Levels
Traders are currently monitoring $1.55 as support and $1.70 as resistance. A daily close above $1.65 could bring $1.70 into play, while a drop below $1.55 would shift focus to $1.45. These levels outline possible trading scenarios rather than guaranteed outcomes.
Binance Reserves at Three-Month High
XRP reserves on Binance have risen to approximately 2.68 billion tokens, the highest level since June. According to a CryptoQuant analysis by Arab Chain, higher reserves mean more XRP is available within the exchange’s trading system, but this alone does not indicate selling intent.
A separate CryptoQuant analysis found that average daily XRP deposits on Binance ran 663% above their quarterly baseline in recent sessions. Withdrawals also increased, leaving reserves only about 0.22% above that baseline. This suggests heavy two-way trading activity rather than a sustained buildup.
XRP’s next move will likely depend on whether buying pressure continues as the price tests nearby resistance. Holding above $1.55 keeps $1.70 in focus, while losing that support would weaken the recent advance.
