Ripple (XRP) has extended its bullish run this week, building on the momentum from our May 1st forecast when the token decisively broke the 2.3093 barrier.
Ripple Price Key Takeaways:
-
XRP/USD surged past resistance at 2.4237, holding above 2.4519
-
Profit target now set at 2.6656
-
Bullish breakout structure firmly intact
-
Ripple technology advances continue to strengthen cross-border payments appeal
Current Market Price: 2.5300
In the past 48 hours, XRP has cleared another significant resistance zone at 2.4237 and 2.4519, as shown on the fresh daily chart, positioning itself for a likely push toward the next technical profit target at 2.6633.
Breakout Levels and Price Action Outlook
After a brief period of consolidation between May 3–8, Ripple staged an aggressive breakout on May 9 with a large-bodied bullish candle that decisively closed above both the 2.3093 and 2.3543 levels. This move confirmed buyer dominance and set the tone for continued upside.
The current daily chart shows XRP/USD now trading comfortably around 2.5299, with the price respecting previous resistance-turned-support at 2.4496. The most recent candle formation features a higher high and higher low — a classic bullish continuation pattern.
The chart highlights two critical levels:
-
Immediate support: 2.4519
-
Key resistance/profit target: 2.6633
Should the market retrace, the 2.4519 and 2.4237 zones are likely to act as support floors, maintaining the bullish structure.
Ripple Technology and Vision Update
XRP continues to solidify its strategic presence in the global payment infrastructure space. In a recent development, the company announced expanded partnerships with two Southeast Asian financial institutions, aiming to optimize regional remittance corridors.
This move reinforces Ripple Net’s utility for cross-border settlements, particularly in emerging markets where conventional banking systems struggle with efficiency and cost.
While much of Ripple’s enterprise focus remains on institutional payment solutions, there’s growing chatter about Ripple’s increasing involvement in tokenizing real-world assets (RWAs).
A Ripple executive hinted during an industry panel last week that pilot programs for tokenized commodities and real estate transactions could debut on Ripple’s ledger by year-end — a potential game-changer for blockchain-based financial services.
Conclusion: Bullish Continuation to 2.6633 in Sight
Technical outlook for the Ripple remains decisively bullish. With buyers having reclaimed control above 2.4237 and 2.4519, and no significant supply zones until 2.6633, the path of least resistance is higher.
The continuation of Ripple’s enterprise adoption narrative and speculation around asset tokenization projects are adding fundamental weight to the technical bullish bias.
Trade Idea:
Consider holding long positions above 2.4237 with a target at 2.6633 and a protective stop below 2.4045.
