Santiment, a behavioral analytics firm, noted that the number of XRP addresses on the XRP Ledger holding between one to ten million XRP has increased significantly since the 18th of July 2020.
The ledger has also seen more than 30 new whales representing a 3.7% surge. This is impressive within a short time. At the time of writing, the price of XRP is $0.312528. It is up by 10.08% against the USD and up by 8.63% against Bitcoin BTC. The trading volume over a 24 hour period is $3,196,773,583 and the market capitalization is $14,020,846,925.
The current surge in the price of XRP is significant because the token has been struggling to gain momentum for a long time. Before its current surge, XRP was stuck in the $0.1900 level for months. Less than two months ago, the token reached a $0.1500 low. It took weeks before it managed to move above this level moving as high as $0.2000. It’s not clear how long the price surge will last.
However, if the token keeps rising, it might move above the next resistance at $0.3200. Otherwise, strong support has formed in the $0.2800 level.
