XRP Active Addresses Hit Highest Level Since April 2023 – Will Price Follow?

Source Newsbtc

XRP is trading above crucial support levels and showing signs of strength as the broader crypto market struggles with persistent selling pressure and macroeconomic headwinds. While many digital assets have suffered steep corrections in recent weeks, XRP has remained one of the most resilient performers, holding above key technical zones and attracting growing investor interest.

With market sentiment slowly recovering, many traders are eyeing XRP as a potential leader in the next wave of gains. Analysts believe that once the market stabilizes, XRP could be among the first altcoins to rally back toward previous highs. This optimism is supported by fresh on-chain data.

According to metrics from Glassnode, the XRP network has recorded nearly 627,000 active addresses. This surge in network usage suggests growing interest and adoption, a bullish sign that often precedes price acceleration. High address activity typically indicates more users interacting with the network, whether through transactions, accumulation, or trading.

If the broader market conditions improve, this spike in activity could fuel further upside for XRP. As it stands, XRP is positioned well above its key support range and looks primed for a breakout once bullish momentum returns to the market.

XRP Network Activity Surges Bulls Defend Key Levels

Macroeconomic uncertainty and surging volatility continue to shake both the crypto and equities markets, fueling widespread fear and triggering panic selling across asset classes. U.S. trade war concerns, inflationary pressure, and erratic policy moves have kept investors on edge, leading to deep corrections in most cryptocurrencies. Yet, amid this uncertainty, XRP stands out with surprising resilience.

Compared to leading altcoins like Solana and Ethereum, which have both suffered notable losses, XRP remains at a strong technical level. Bulls have managed to defend key demand zones, and the current focus is on reclaiming critical supply areas to validate a new uptrend. The asset’s ability to hold support despite market-wide weakness has caught the attention of analysts and investors alike.

Top analyst Ali Martinez shared on-chain data from Glassnode, revealing that XRP’s network activity is surging. With nearly 627,000 active addresses—the highest since April 2023—XRP shows signs of renewed adoption and usage. Historically, spikes in active addresses correlate with bullish momentum, as rising participation typically reflects investor confidence and transactional demand.

If XRP maintains its support base and continues to show strength in network fundamentals, it could be one of the first altcoins to break out once market sentiment recovers. The rise in active addresses may be an early indicator that a larger move is on the horizon.

Price Holds Strong After Small Rally — Eyes Set on $3 Breakout

XRP is trading at $2.41 after a volatile few days of sharp swings between support and resistance. The token surged over 33% from its recent low at $1.89, showing strong bullish momentum despite market-wide uncertainty. This rebound has placed XRP among the top-performing assets in the crypto space, attracting renewed attention from traders and analysts.

The $2.30 level now stands as a key short-term support zone. If XRP holds above this level, bulls are likely to push toward the psychological $3 mark, which also aligns with a historical resistance area. A clean breakout above $3 could open the door for a rally toward range highs and potentially new all-time highs, depending on broader market sentiment.

However, if XRP fails to maintain support at $2.30, a pullback into lower demand zones around the $2.00 or even $1.89 levels is possible. This would likely slow the pace of any recovery and increase selling pressure in the short term.

For now, XRP’s price structure remains bullish, but maintaining momentum will depend on holding above key levels as the broader market stabilizes. All eyes are on the next move.
