Traders are increasingly interested in Ripple, despite uncertain factors affecting it. Now, the market has good potential for further upside to 0.7325.
There’s also speculation about the possibility of an XRP-ETF (Exchange-Traded Fund), but legal issues between Ripple and the SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) could affect Ripple’s future, with legal proceedings expected to happen in late winter 2024.
Support levels: 0.493, 0.420, trend support
Resistance levels: 0.585, 0.648, 0.7325
