XRP spot traders provided the volumes needed to send the altcoin above $3. Is a new all-time high the next stop?

Data from Google Trends also highlighted that worldwide Google searches for XRP overtook BTC on Jan. 15. Over the past year, XRP has led BTC in terms of search volumes twice, with the altcoin leading the apex crypto asset end on November 2024.

XRP rally driven by spot investors, says analyst
In 2024, futures open interest (OI) in major assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum reached new all-time highs, underlying the importance of derivatives markets during bull runs. However, XRP’s recent rally was driven largely by spot investors.
As illustrated in the chart, Dom, an order flow analyst, said that XRP’s $3 retest was completely driven by demand from spot holders. The analyst pointed out that XRP’s funding rate and spot buy premiums haven’t risen much during XRP’s 15% weekly returns. Dom said,
“If I saw this with $BTC, I would simply say we are going much higher.”
Meanwhile, the community also pointed out that XRP will potentially flip Ethereum with another 2.5X return if both assets continue to move at the same price rate.
In fact, Jeth, Sovrun co-founder, said that there is “no reason” to hold ETH over $XRP anymore. While the former had better “fundamentals,” XRP was backed by positive regulatory tailwinds as the first pro-crypto US government prepares to take over the White House on Jan. 20.
