• XRP breaks out above $2.26, signaling a reversal from recent consolidation.
• Bitcoin’s surge past $100K boosts overall market sentiment, aiding XRP’s rally.
• Breakout from descending triangle opens path toward $2.52 resistance.
• Holding above $2.22 keeps the short-term outlook bullish for XRP.

XRP is showing renewed bullish momentum after reclaiming the $2.26 level, signaling a potential reversal from recent consolidation. As of writing, XRP is trading at $2.26, marking a breakout above the descending triangle pattern that had capped the asset’s upside in late April.

The overall market is in a bullish phase with Bitcoin’s recent surge. BTC surges past the $100k level, injecting a fresh wave of optimism into the overall market and helping altcoins to recover from recent losses. Several major altcoins surged past their crucial resistance level and started upward movements, including XRP.

XRP Breaks Out: Eyes on $2.52

Over the past few weeks, XRP had been caught in a tight consolidation phase within a key support zone between $2.00 and $2.10. A descending triangle formation emerged, typically a bearish continuation pattern, but XRP defied expectations with a breakout to the upside. This breakout invalidates bearish sentiment and opens the door for further gains.

The price action has surged through resistance at $2.22 and is now testing the $2.26–$2.30 range. Sustained movement above $2.30 could clear the path toward the next major resistance at $2.52, which previously acted as a supply zone in late March.

On the downside, immediate support lies back at the $2.10 region. A failure to hold above this zone could trigger a retest of the $2.00 psychological level, and a breakdown below this could drag the token toward $1.82.

The breakout from the descending triangle pattern, along with a strong green candle breaking the trendline, indicates renewed buying pressure and a potential shift in market structure. If bulls maintain control, the token may attempt a challenge of the $2.52 level in the coming days.

As long as the token holds above $2.22, the short-term outlook remains bullish. Traders and investors will be closely watching for a confirmation above $2.30 to validate the breakout and potential for further upside.
