XRP is up by nearly 2% and is now trading above the $1.40 level. The surge comes amid ETF inflows and growing derivatives demand. XRP could rally towards the 100-day EMA at $1.55 in the near term. The cryptocurrency market has been trading sideways over the past few hours, but some leading coins have been bullish. Solana (SOL) and Ripple (XRP) are the best performers among the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap. XRP maintains a neutral-to-bullish tone, trading above $1.43 at the time of writing on Friday, supported by renewed institutional and retail interest. It briefly hit the $1.46 level before retracing to now trade around $1.433. A steady price increase could accelerate XRP toward the next resistance levels at $1.50 and $1.55. XRP could rally higher on growing institutional and retail interest The XRP/USD 4-hour chart is one of the most interesting ones among the top 10 cryptocurrencies. It is trading above $1.43, above the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the 50.0% Fibonacci retracement at $1.3946. Despite its rally, XRP remains well below the 100-day EMA at $1.55 and the 200-day EMA at $1.80, keeping the broader bias bearish.

A daily candle close above the 100-day EMA at $1.55 would allow XRP to recapture the $1.80 resistance level for the first time since January 30th. On the downside, initial support is seen at the 50-day EMA around $1.41. A break below this resistance level would see XRP retest the 50.0% Fibonacci retracements near $1.39. Failure to defend this level would expose the 38.2% Fibonacci retracements at $1.33 and the prior trendline break area around $1.31. The 23.6% Fibonacci retracements at $1.25 would act as a stronger demand zone in the medium term.
