The recent Bitcoin rally has definitely had a really positive impact on the whole crypto market and the most important cryptos in the space have all surged.
XRP is pushing towards $0.5
As expected, one of these is XRP, and the coin managed to smash an important resistance level according to UToday, and now it seems to be set to continue pushing its price higher towards another psychological level: $0.5.
Both Ripple and XRP have had a successful year, and the coin still has to mirror all the achievements regarding more partnerships and widespread adoption of Ripple’s services.
XRP itself has been tied to various great news such as implementing XRP micropayments in Microsoft Outlook and Gmail.
XRP has also become a payment option in WooCommerce, which is powering about 3.3 million online stores these days. All these steps have been huge regarding the mass adoption of the coin.
All that’s left is that XRP mirrors all of its achievements and the success of Ripple and well via its price.
