Here’s a snapshot of XRP’s current vibe from both a technical and fundamental lens:

Technically, XRP’s been dancing around the $2.35–$2.45 range, flirting with resistance at $2.43. A rare bullish MACD crossover back in mid-April hinted at upside, but RSI sitting around 60 shows it’s not overbought—so there’s room to run. Volume spikes on up days look healthy, suggesting buyers are still in control.

Fundamentally, the picture’s looking brighter too. Ripple’s recent SEC settlement has removed a huge overhang, and CME just announced XRP futures coming May 19—classic institutional stamp of approval. Plus, community buzz around potential spot XRP ETFs in Canada and the U.S. keeps the optimism alive.

That said, network activity dipped slightly, and broader macro jitters can tug prices around. But with regulatory clouds clearing and big players gearing up, XRP could be gearing up for a stronger run. Just keep an eye on that $2.43 line—breaking and holding above it could set the stage for the next leg up. $XRP
