Ripple Provides Crypto Traders with a Solid Barometer of the Market

Ripple continues to provide crypto traders with a solid barometer. The value of XRP has climbed to about eighty-six cents per coin although, on Wednesday, the coin dropped 11%, trading at 0.80 cents.

Key resistance for XRP can be visualized at the 1.00 Dollar juncture, while support now appears to be the sixty-one cents level. If Ripple is able to climb towards the one dollar mark and sustain its value, it would be the first time since mid-February it has achieved that success.
