XRP has surged past the $1.40 resistance level, driven by a nearly 13% increase in trading volume, signaling renewed trader interest and stronger short-term momentum. The cryptocurrency's price movement follows Ripple's collaboration with Mastercard through the Crypto Partner program, which has heightened market attention and investor anticipation for broader adoption of XRP and RLUSD. The fifth-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization recorded significant gains as trading volume reached approximately $2.63 billion. XRP's price advanced from an intraday low near $1.37, breaking through the $1.40 barrier and briefly reaching $1.42 before stabilizing around $1.41. Technical indicators, including a golden cross on the hourly chart, suggest strengthening momentum, with traders eyeing potential moves toward $1.50 and $2 if current trends persist.
