Ripple is a technology that has both a cryptocurrency (XRP) and a digital payment network for financial transactions. Co-founders Chris Larsen and Jed McCaleb first released it in 2012. Ripple’s main process is a payment settlement asset exchange and remittance system, similar to the SWIFT system for international money and security transfers, which is used by banks and financial middlemen dealing across currencies.
The token used for the cryptocurrency is pre-mined and utilizes the ticker symbol XRP. Ripple is the name of the company and the network, and XRP is the cryptocurrency token. The purpose of XRP is to serve as an intermediate mechanism of exchange between two currencies or networks – as a sort of temporary settlement layer.

XRP Price: Technical Overview
XRP price nears 9 EMA line (Source: CoinMarketCap)
On the daily chart for XRP/USDT, the price of XRP is approaching the 9 EMA line – a level that has been a resistance level for XRP throughout the bear market.
The 9 Exponential Moving Average (MA) line is positioned below the 20 Exponential Moving Average (MA) line which indicates that we are still in a bearish cycle.
Furthermore, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), although positioned above the RSI SMA line, has sloped negatively and has closed the previous gap that existed between the two lines.
Lastly, XRP is also in a price channel at the moment with the lower bound lying at $0.3027 and its upper bound at $0.3468. Should the price of XRP successfully rise above the 9 EMA level, the next target will be the upper bound of the channel.
If this happens, it will be an 8.9% move from current levels. On the other hand, a drop from the 9 EMA level to the lower bound of the price channel will be around an 8.1% drop in price from the 9 EMA level.
Given the signal from the GB Market Analysis Software and several other factors such as the price of XRP approaching the 9 EMA and the 9 EMA positioned below the 20 EMA line, as well as the 9 EMA line serving as a strong resistance level, we may see the price of XRP drop in the next 48 hours.
Once again, confirmation of the signal playing out is the price of XRP reaching $0.30006667.
