After trading below the $2 mark for the past 3 days, XRP has finally recovered the level with a nearly 14% upswing in mere hours. Its recent upward move to the $2 level is attributed to a sudden surge in the entire crypto market, coupled with the notable bullish performance in its network activities and derivatives market.


Notable Surge In XRP’s Futures Trading Volume


While XRP’s price is struggling to regain its upward momentum, many areas of its market are showing bullish performance, rising to unprecedented levels. These positive developments could generate enough momentum for the altcoin, paving the way for a much larger rebound in the near term.


Ali Martinez, a seasoned technical expert and trader, has delved into XRP’s recent market performance, revealing substantial growth in the past few days. Specifically, the volume of XRP’s futures trading has exploded as fresh market interest pours into the asset, hitting new heights. On-chain data from Martinez shows that the futures trading volume rose to about $21.62 billion across all crypto exchanges, marking a new monthly high. 


Despite general market volatility, this strong surge in derivative activity indicates increased investor confidence and speculative enthusiasm behind the altcoin. Furthermore, it is often seen as a sign of increased price activity, with investors and traders anticipating possible breakouts in the short term.

This spike in futures trading volume coincides with a sharp growth in XRP’s network activity, signaling heightened investor participation and conviction. Martinez reported the development in another post on the X (formerly Twitter) platform, capturing the attention of the community.


In the post, the expert reported that the network is showing signs of robust growth as wallet addresses holding at least 1 XRP have grown sharply over the past few days. Even as prices still undergo notable bearish pressure, this rise in small-scale investors implies improving adoption and retail interest in the altcoin.


Data shows that these holders have now reached a new all-time high with a total of 6.26 million wallet addresses in spite of the recent volatility around the asset. A persistent rise in the wallet addresses could be a bullish sign for the network’s long-term fundamentals, potentially sparking a short-term shift in the altcoin’s price.

Critical Levels To Surpass For A Continued Uptrend

XRP may have briefly rebounded, but several resistance levels might hinder its uptrend. After navigating the recent shift in price action through the UTXO Realized Price Distribution (URPD) metric, Ali Martinez has outlined the key areas where the asset is likely to face robust barriers.


As prices grow slowly, the key support levels are sitting at $1.67 and $1.39. Holding above these areas will provide more stability to its recent upward move.

 However, if it falls below these points, it will approach even stronger support at $0.98 due to the significant accumulation observed there. On the upside, the crucial areas to break are the $2.04 and $2.38 resistance levels, as over 1.76% and 3.36% of XRP supply were accumulated at these zones, respectively.
