XRP News Today: XRP Eyes $3.30 Resistance After Legal Win and Whale Activity

XRP remains in a critical phase of its price action, with traders and analysts closely monitoring its ability to maintain key support and resistance levels following Ripple’s landmark legal victory over the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. On August 1, the XRP price surged to $3.30 amid increased market confidence, driven in part by a reported $1.9 billion movement of XRP by large holders, or whales [3]. However, the asset has since experienced a tug-of-war between bullish and bearish forces, fluctuating narrowly as it consolidates around recent levels [1].

A recent AI-driven forecast suggests that XRP could reach between $5.80 and $6.80 by the end of 2025, assuming a stable regulatory environment and sustained adoption [2]. This projection is based on current market dynamics and long-term assumptions rather than immediate technical conditions. In the short term, traders are keeping a close eye on the $3.30 level, which has acted as a significant resistance point. A sustained move above this level could signal the start of a more bullish trend, whereas a retest of the $3.00 level is seen as crucial for maintaining upward momentum [4].

Earlier in July, XRP saw a notable 25% rally after transaction volume hit a six-month high, pushing the price to $3.05 and quieting some skepticism about the asset’s potential [5]. Technical indicators also suggest that XRP is moving beyond a long-standing price range between $2.00 and $2.80, which could open the door for a more aggressive price move [7]. Nevertheless, the market remains fragile, and analysts stress that XRP’s ability to hold new highs will be key to shaping the next phase of its movement [6].

While optimism persists, XRP still has a long way to go if it is to surpass Bitcoin in terms of market dominance. To overtake the leading cryptocurrency, XRP would need to rise roughly 13 times its current value—an outcome considered highly unlikely given Bitcoin’s entrenched position [8]. Still, the asset is well-positioned to benefit from broader market trends, especially as legal clarity improves and institutional interest increases.

The coming days will be decisive for XRP, with the market focusing on whether it can remain above $3.30 and avoid a renewed pullback. If it manages to hold the $3.00 level, the bull case for XRP could gain renewed strength and credibility.
