XRP has staged a sharp bullish breakout after spending seven months below a key macro resistance, with traders now debating whether the altcoin can sustain its rally. According to CoinMarketCap, XRP was trading near $1.48, down 0.18% over 24 hours but up nearly 50% in seven days. The move followed a weekly surge of about 70% from an accumulation zone, and market participants are now closely watching the $1.55 level as the next short-term trigger.
Technical analysts caution that a decisive close above $1.64 is needed before higher targets become credible. Analyst Diana said XRP must convert the $1.53–$1.64 resistance zone into support to validate a path toward $1.79, followed by a possible correction to $1.27–$1.30 and later expansion targets at $2.58 and $2.89. CasiTrades also identified roughly $1.78 as the next destination if XRP has entered a new upward trend, tying the move to a rebound from the 78.6% macro retracement level.
Another analyst noted that XRP met heavy rejection at the macro .618 resistance and now needs to break above it and retest it as support. Until that structural shift occurs, lower supports between $1.00 and $0.87 remain valid. Some longer-term forecasts mention $5–$10 targets for the cycle, though observers say such levels may be premature. Broader market strength has helped sentiment, with Bitcoin near $80,000 and Ethereum around $2,500, but XRP's immediate confirmation level remains the $1.64 breakout zone.
