Ripple Price Analysis: XRP Surges 7% In a Day, Going For $0.30?

Over the past 24 hours, XRP saw a notable increase of 7.35% which allowed it to climb back above $0.25 to reach the current trading price of $0.2556. This price increase is perhaps largely attributed to XRP making some gains against BTC as it creates a fresh high for September above 3100 SAT. Despite the recent price increase, it still has a long way to recovery after losing 34% over the past 3 months.

XRP remains the third-largest cryptocurrency with a market cap of $11.05 billion.
