The rally comes as institutional and retail demand push prices higher.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">XRP spot ETFs listed in the United States (US) experienced inflows of $43 million last week. Data revealed that since their debut in November, the funds have maintained steady weekly inflows, suggesting growing institutional investor interest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The five XRP ETF products recorded approximately $13.6 million in inflows on Friday, taking the cumulative net inflow to $1.18 billion and net assets to $1.37 billion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to that, retail interest in XRP is slowly returning following the coin\u2019s poor performance in December. Data obtained from Coinglass shows that XRP\u2019s futures Open Interest (OI) increased to approximately $3.8 billion on Monday, up from $3.6 billion the previous day. The OI averaged $3.3 billion on Thursday, signaling that retail demand is slowly returning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>XRP eyes a breakout above $2.3<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The XRP\/USD 4-hour chart is bullish and efficient as the coin has performed well over the past few days.

If the RSI continues to increase, XRP could enter the overbought region.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the bullish trend continues, XRP could rally towards the next resistance levels represented by the 100-day EMA at $2.22 and the 200-day EMA at $2.34. However, failure to push higher could see XRP retest the $2.00 psychological level once again. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Analysis,XRP,XRP ETFs#XRP #eyes #breakout1767625611<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key takeaways XRP has flipped BNB to become the third-largest cryptocurrency by market cap.
