Ripple-Will-Take-The-$0.5-Mark-As-Upcoming-Motivation

Key Points:

Ripple’s XRP experienced a turbulent week, with a 3% price surge to $0.5.
The surge was triggered by Ripple’s legal victory against the SEC, but the excitement was short-lived as the token’s value quickly retraced.
XRP currently sits at around $0.5, with trading volume remaining stagnant at $750 million, as investors await catalysts for potential price movements.

Ripple’s XRP experienced a rollercoaster week, with its price surging 3% to $0.5, spurred on by favorable US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data and the news of a new Bitcoin ETF filing by Franklin Templeton Investments.

This remarkable uptick was initiated by Ripple‘s significant legal victory over the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), catapulting XRP above the $0.94 threshold, a level last seen in April 2022.

However, the jubilation was short-lived, as XRP’s value swiftly retraced, erasing its gains and leaving investors uncertain about the token’s future.

Breaking out of a falling wedge pattern, XRP now hovers around $0.5, with Fibonacci 50% support potentially pushing it to $0.7. Ripple has an upcoming event dubbed a “Proper Party” scheduled for September 29, where announcements regarding an IPO are anticipated.

XRP’s nearest target price is $0.55, which is also the 23.6% Fib level and is considered temporary resistance as XRP’s price is rejecting this level.
