At the time of writing, XRP is trading at around $3.25, showing a modest 1% gain over the past 24 hours.
The buying spree comes just days after the US Securities and Exchange Commission officially closed its case against Ripple , ending years of legal uncertainty. This lawsuit, which accused Ripple of selling unregistered securities, has been a major overhang on XRP price.
With the case now behind them, investor confidence appears to be improving. In the past week, XRP has seen an 8% price surge, adding over $14 billion to its market capitalization. Analysts note that sentiment in the XRP community is shifting from cautious optimism to outright bullishness.
Analysts Eye $3.33 Breakout Level
Crypto strategist Dark Defender suggested traders to watch for $3.33 as the key resistance level. He explained that breaching this barrier could lead XRP to become the next crypto to explode , testing $4.44 and $5.85 levels.

The analyst’s outlook is supported by a strong RSI, which he describes as “more bullish than ever.” On the daily XRP price chart, the RSI is currently trading around 57, reflecting solid buying momentum with further room for growth.

The Bollinger Bands are moderately wide and the cryptocurrency is trading near the upper band, often a sign of bullish intent. If XRP bullish momentum fades, a drop toward the middle band (20-day SMA) near $3.12 or even the $2.85 support is possible.
The MACD indicator is hovering near the zero line, with a potential bullish crossover forming. A clean close above $3.33 would likely trigger an acceleration toward $4.44.
