XRP’s Current Price Movements

The cryptocurrency market has faced a significant correction in the last 24 hours. Nearly $622 million worth of assets were liquidated. Ripple’s XRP token follows the current bearish trend. The asset is down 4.6% in the daily charts and 7% over the previous month. Despite the correction, XRP has maintained some gains in the other time frames. The asset is up 10.1% in the weekly charts, 0.8% in the 14-day charts, and 310.8% since January 2024.

The latest correction is likely due to better-than-expected jobs data in the US. The development has cast a shadow on an early interest rate cut from the Federal Reserve. Such developments tend to spook investors away from riskier assets like XRP and other cryptocurrencies.

Can The Asset Reclaim Its $3.40 Peak In Q1 2025?

According to CoinCodex, Ripple’s XRP token will surpass its previous peak in March of this year. The platform anticipates the asset to hit a new all-time high of $4.60 on Mar. 24, 2025. Hitting $4.60 from current price levels will translate to a rally of about 99.13%.

Given the current bearish environment, XRP may not hit a new peak in Q1 2025. Things could change very quickly after President-elect Donald Trump assumes office. His pro-crypto stance could make a difference in how the market moves over the next few months.
