XRP News Today: XRP at a Decisive Price Point

Right now, XRP is in a position where its future growth will be decided by how the price moves. With price lingering above the $2 mark, XRP has a significant barrier to overcome if it is to continue with its rally forward. There are three key levels identified by two independent analysts, Dom (@traderview2) and Osemka (@Osemka8). These key levels are represented by the $2.00, $2.20, and $2.50 marks.

These are the decisive price points that will determine XRP’s future trajectory, according to these analysts. The first and foremost challenge for XRP is to keep its head above the $2.00 mark. Falling below this mark is unacceptable if XRP wishes to trade upwards. Then there are two key resistance points at $2.20 and $2.50 marks. Breaking above these two resistance points will send the XRP price sky high, according to the two analysts who have used two different methods to arrive at the same conclusion.

Price Consolidation Is Nearing Its End

According to Osemka, XRP is forming a flat correction on the 2-day chart. This is very good news for XRP as the flat correction is a potential upside indicator when the market is moving in a consistent sideways direction. Additionally, Osemka notes that the sideways consolidation is happening above the 2021 high. This means that the price has been consistently above a major peak in the past, never breaking below it.

Here's the range and levels to help you navigate it.
We're basing on top of 2021 high. We've also never broken down after going sideways for this long, so I remain with my view of this being an accumulation range and a flat correction. If we end up taking the lower end… pic.twitter.com/sPodhyPUlQ

In a weak crypto market, as we saw in November, XRP’s performance was commendable. The asset did not experience wild swings and huge market corrections, despite the broader crypto market having severely suffered from the crash. This makes Osemka believe that XRP has entered a sideways accumulation range.

This sideways accumulation range has much significance, as this period is marked by bigger players slowly accumulating large amounts of XRP in incognito mode. This is indeed an action before a significant positive price movement. The flat correction solidifies this analysis. In short, the long sideways above the 2021 high is a much constructive and healthy buildup for XRP. XRP is indeed in the hopes of a bull rally once the price correction comes to a full stop.

It’s Now or Never For XRP

While Osemka made a broad range analysis, Dom looks deeper into a section within Osemka’s analysis by zooming in on the details. Osemka’s analysis is based on a larger trend analysis; Dom, on the other hand, is looking for micro-movements within the chart that could explain why Osemka’s analysis could be in the right direction.

Bulls needs to regain the monthly rVWAP… https://t.co/BBP8QYLgL5 pic.twitter.com/CFM5Ub3xYF

On Dom’s 8-hour chart, the monthly rolling VWAP or rVWAP identifies $2.22 as the crucial pivot level. This is a more precise analysis, as this sits between the significant barriers pointed out by Osemka at $2.20 and $2.50. This means that traders and investors have been hovering around the $2.22 price for trading activity, so regaining this price from the current price of $2.17 could mean that buyers are in power.

If these bulls can push the price over $2.22, this could potentially help XRP break the resistance at $2.50. This analysis gains strength as it lines up with two of Osemka’s statements, the rVWAP cluster, and the upper boundary of $2.50.

Dom additionally notes that the order book and market skew support this possibility. With fewer large sell orders in the way, the order book has become particularly clean, and no heavily placed SHORT orders on the futures market mean that conditions are favourable for XRP.

However, all of this is dependent on the buyers, as this will work only if strong buying pressure builds up in the market. This is why the present conditions become a now-or-never situation for XRP. The broader positive picture painted by both analysts, combined with greater institutional influence and strategic expansion plans by Ripple, can indeed push XRP forward.

Conclusion

While the two analyses together paint a consistent picture, the future of XRP lies in the hands of buyers. Only with a strong buying pressure can XRP resurface over the barriers posted at $2.20 and $2.50. If XRP can break past these two barriers, the journey towards the $3.00 price becomes an easy one.

In contrast to this, if XRP enters a bearish phase after the ongoing market correction phase, things could change radically. Since this analysis holds strong, a bear run in the short term could mean that XRP may have to continuously retest the resistance levels all throughout 2025. In such a case, the surge that all are expecting of XRP may be delayed or could be taken further into 2026.
