The XRP currency, the token that supports the Ripple system, maintains a higher level of $ for the first time since its increases began in late 2024.

However, despite outperforming most of the altcoin market, its upside potential seems limited amid profit-taking by investors.

XRP price halted as investors took their profits.

XRP was trading at 2.17 at the time of this report, with an increase of over 0.5% in the last 24 hours. Despite the modest gains, data from CoinGecko shows that the Ripple token is one of the top gainers on Friday among the largest altcoins by market capitalization. #xrp
