XRP Price Analysis
With the tremendous growth within the crypto market, the coin is getting a lot of attention from the traders during the last couple of weeks. All the remaining top altcoins have gained over 70% since the beginning of 2020. However, XRP did not manage to get to its full potential and only gained about 52%. Now, in the past 48 hours, the currency has shown some improvement and increased 18% to set an intraday high of USD 0.3240.
On taking a look at the daily candle charts, the 200 EMA is providing essential support to the XRP/USD pair and expects a continuation of the bullish trend. Right now, the pair is touching the upper 20-day Bollinger Band, and it appears that we will see a term reversal before a new bullish move towards 50 cents begins. This move would propel the tokens even further, and it might be a good time to invest in the currency.
XRP worth $25 Million on Move
In another new, Whale alert has revealed that over 78,000,000 XRP, which is equivalent to $25 million, has been transferred to an unknown wallet. The move was made from Bithumb exchange. A move this big indicates that a possible institutional purchase of XRP has taken place. This purchase will increase the bullish sentiment of the currency.

It cannot be confirmed that the whale transaction has directly resulted in the pump of XRP to $0.3340 per coin. However, the transfer of such a large sum still makes one wonder where the market is heading. The charts show a positive trend for Ripple’s native cryptocurrency, and Ripple Inc. is showing tremendous development. Now, it is only a matter of time before XRP starts trading at $0.50 per coin.
