After a prolonged consolidation, XRP’s price action appears to be turning bullish, with technical patterns pointing to more upside. A report from Singapore-based blockchain firm Matrixport shows that the Relative Strength Index is hovering near 40%, leaving room for a potential surge. The firm noted that in the past, XRP ( XRP ) has often rallied when RSI is around this level, typically facing resistance closer to 70%. https://twitter.com/Matrixport_EN/status/1891759562807705986 Matrixport also notes that further gains could depend on regulatory developments. If the SEC takes another look at its case against Ripple Labs under the new administration, XRP could have even more room to run, the firm says. “The recent rebound could have further upside, particularly if the SEC revisits its legal case against Ripple Labs under the new U.S. administration. With the RSI currently near 40%, the technical setup appears favorable for a potential rally.” Matrixport You might also like: XRP price may crash 65%, Wyckoff Theory shows Market data from Coinalyze shows XRP’s open interest in perpetual and futures contracts dropped over 3.5% in the past 24 hours to $1.8 billion.
