Data shows XRP has gained almost 72% in market value over the last 30 days, currently reaching about $193 billion. In July, XRP’s price jumped 35% compared to Bitcoin, while Ethereum rose more than 25% against Bitcoin in the same period.

Recent trading activity reflects a trend where investors rotate funds from Bitcoin into altcoins such as XRP and Ethereum. The two altcoins now make up roughly 16% of the total cryptocurrency market. In the past 24 hours, while Bitcoin moved between gains and losses, Ether and XRP each increased by more than 8%. Analysts believe that if this momentum continues, XRP could rise to $4, increasing its market cap past $200 billion.

Technical analysis points to a pattern similar to late 2024, when XRP reached overbought levels on the relative strength index, a common momentum indicator. That previous rally drove XRP’s market cap to approximately $195 billion by early 2025.

Currently, XRP has broken out of a downward price pattern known as a “descending triangle,” with rising trading volume and positive momentum. If this pattern continues, projections suggest the market cap could reach $212 billion in August. Further gains could push XRP’s value to the 1.618 Fibonacci extension level, estimated at about $258 billion by the end of the year.
