XRP (XRP) has gone up by 3.7% in the past 24 hours and currently stands at $2.54 after the new Chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) made some positive comments about his plans for the crypto industry.
The token has now recovered from its session lows after the U.S. reached a deal with China to cut tariffs from 90 days while they negotiate a final agreement. Tariffs will stand at 10% on both sides for the time being.
During a roundtable that discussed the topic of tokenization, Chairman Paul Atkins, a pro-crypto official appointed by the Trump administration, highlighted that “the Commission must keep pace with innovation and consider whether regulatory changes are needed to accommodate on-chain securities and other crypto assets.”
He emphasized that the agency will do everything in its power to fulfill the President’s vision of making America the “crypto capital of the world.” This is a positive development that favors a bullish XRP price forecast.
XRP Price Forecast: Elliott Wave Analysis Gives $7 Target
So far in 2025, and despite the bear market that took place during the first quarter, XRP has delivered gains of 22.7%, making it the best-performing crypto asset of the top 5 during this period.
Meanwhile, trading volumes in the past 24 hours have kept surging and currently sit at $10.6 billion, accounting for 7.2% of the token’s total circulating supply.
Buying pressure is at its highest point in months as market sentiment has improved in the past month.
After bouncing off the 200-day exponential moving average (EMA), XRP may have gathered the necessary fuel to start moving to new heights.
The first and most relevant resistance up ahead is the $3.4 level. A bullish breakout above this price zone will confirm the target highlighted in the chart of $7.14 as it would mark the beginning of wave #5 for XRP.
Moving forward, as long as the 200-day EMA support holds, any pullbacks should be considered a buying opportunity.
XRP’s prospects are quite promising but the highest upside potential during altcoin season will likely come from the best crypto presales like SUBBD (SUBBD).
