XRP climbs 3% to $1.37 as accumulation builds, but key breakout still ahead

Strong volume and rising demand contrast with deeply bearish sentiment, setting up a potential move if $1.42 clears. What to know : XRP is grinding higher on strong volume while social sentiment is near two-year bearish extremes, a combination that has historically preceded sharper rallies. The token is consolidating just below recent highs after breaking above $1.35, with rising prices and volume suggesting steady accumulation rather than short-term speculation. Traders are watching $1.35 as near-term support and the $1.42 to $1.45 zone as key breakout resistance, while a drop below $1.33 to $1.30 would put downside risk back in focus.
