The price of XRP has surpassed $1 on April 6 for the first time since March 2018, putting its market valuation at around $47 billion.
Moreover, the fourth-largest cryptocurrency in the global market has broken out against the Bitcoin (BTC) pair, causing it to see significant technical momentum.

When XRP was hovering at around $0.75, cryptocurrency traders noted that XRP’s market structure was bullish.
Cantering Clark, a cryptocurrency derivatives trader, said that XRP has all the technical components to rally. Since then, XRP rallied from $0.75 to over $1.
On April 6, Clark said:
“Not for nothing, $XRP technically has taken all necessary strides to be bullish. After the exchange delistings and write-off by most of CT, this essentially left the market short from both a positional and sidelined standpoint. This can move much higher.”
Another well-known trader, recognized as “Kaleo,” noted that XRP’s breakout against Bitcoin is particularly optimistic.
