XRP price rises as RLUSD stablecoin flips PYUSD on a key metric

The XRP price continued to rise, reaching its highest level in over a month as cryptocurrencies bounced back. Ripple ( XRP ) climbed to $2.60, extending a recovery that began on Dec. 30 when it bottomed at the psychologically important level of $2. One catalyst for XRP’s rise is the gradual growth of Ripple’s USD stablecoin ( RLUSD ), which has now attracted over $72 million in assets. According to CoinGecko , there are signs that RLUSD usage is increasing, with its 24-hour trading volume reaching $162 million. This volume makes RLUSD the sixth-most used stablecoin in the crypto market. RLUSD has surpassed other popular stablecoins, including Justin Sun’s USDD, Frax, and PayPal’s PYUSD. Notably, PYUSD, which has a market cap of $534 million, recorded a 24-hour volume of just $22 million. However, RLUSD faces stiff competition from major stablecoins such as Tether ( USDT ) and USD Coin, which had 24-hour volumes of $74 billion and $6.7 billion, respectively.

XRP remains above all major moving averages, suggesting further bullish momentum. The next crucial resistance level to watch is $2.9150, which could serve as the next target in the ongoing rally.
