XRP has surged past recent resistance with impressive momentum, signaling strength in the current rally. However, the real challenge now lies at the $2.41 cost-basis zone, a key area where a significant amount of XRP was previously accumulated. How price reacts here will likely dictate whether bulls can maintain control and push toward higher targets, or if <\/span>selling pressure<\/span><\/a> creates a temporary pause or pullback.<\/span><\/p>\n

XRP Approaches A Critical Cost-Basis Resistance At $2.41<\/h2>\n

According to a recent <\/span>update<\/span><\/a> from Steph Is Crypto, XRP is now at a pivotal crossroads, with price action increasingly centered around the $2.41 level. This zone stands out as a major cost-basis wall where several technical and on-chain signals align, making it a decisive area in determining whether the current <\/span>rally<\/span><\/a> can extend or begin to stall.<\/span><\/p>\n

The cost-basis distribution heatmap highlights the $2.41 region as a dense <\/span>supply<\/span><\/a> cluster. Cost basis represents the price levels at which tokens were previously acquired. When the price returns to these areas, they often attract heightened trading activity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On-chain data<\/span><\/a> shows that between $2.39 and $2.41, roughly 1.56 billion XRP were accumulated. Many holders who bought in this range may look to exit positions to break even as the price revisits the zone, introducing selling pressure and reinforcing the area as resistance.<\/span><\/p>\n

This dynamic is also reflected in the <\/span>XRP<\/span><\/a> price chart, which shows repeated hesitation and multiple rejections around the same level. The alignment between on-chain supply data and technical price action suggests that $2.41 is an important level that XRP must overcome decisively to unlock the next leg higher.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wave 3 Breaks Out Above The 2.618 Extension With Strong Momentum<\/h2>\n

Tara <\/span>revealed<\/span><\/a> that XRP\u2019s Wave 3 has delivered a powerful <\/span>breakout<\/span><\/a>, pushing beyond the 2.618 Fibonacci extension and clearing the macro resistance at $2.30. This move was accompanied by a strong RSI reading, signaling strength behind the advance.<\/span><\/p>\n

With Wave 3 extending higher, Tara identified $2.49 as the next key upside target, which aligns with the 0.618 Fibonacci extension of the fifth wave. Despite the strength of the move, Tara advised preparing for a short-term pullback. A brief retracement could allow the <\/span>RSI<\/span><\/a> to cool off, creating healthier conditions for the next leg higher and potentially setting up a clearer divergence on a renewed push.<\/span><\/p>\n

As long as XRP remains above the macro 0.236 Fibonacci level, the broader bullish structure stays intact. Tara is closely monitoring lower-timeframe support zones, marked in green, while continuing to track the move as a developing Wave 1\/3 impulse.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Godspower\t\t<\/p>\n

\n

My name is Godspower Owie, and I was born and brought up in Edo State, Nigeria. I grew up with my three siblings who have always been my idols and mentors, helping me to grow and understand the way of life.<\/p>\n

\n

My parents are literally the backbone of my story. They\u2019ve always supported me in good and bad times and never for once left my side whenever I feel lost in this world. Honestly, having such amazing parents makes you feel safe and secure, and I won\u2019t trade them for anything else in this world.<\/p>\n

I was exposed to the cryptocurrency world 3 years ago and got so interested in knowing so much about it. It all started when a friend of mine invested in a crypto asset, which he yielded massive gains from his investments.<\/p>\n

When I confronted him about cryptocurrency he explained his journey so far in the field. It was impressive getting to know about his consistency and dedication in the space despite the risks involved, and these are the major reasons why I got so interested in cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n

Trust me, I\u2019ve had my share of experience with the ups and downs in the market but I never for once lost the passion to grow in the field. This is because I believe growth leads to excellence and that\u2019s my goal in the field. And today, I am an employee of Bitcoinnist and NewsBTC news outlets.<\/p>\n

My Bosses and co-workers are the best kinds of people I have ever worked with, in and outside the crypto landscape. I intend to give my all working alongside my amazing colleagues for the growth of these companies.<\/p>\n

Sometimes I like to picture myself as an explorer, this is because I like visiting new places, I like learning new things (useful things to be precise), I like meeting new people – people who make an impact in my life no matter how little it is.<\/p>\n

One of the things I love and enjoy doing the most is football. It will remain my favorite outdoor activity, probably because I’m so good at it. I am also very good at singing, dancing, acting, fashion and others.<\/p>\n

I cherish my time, work, family, and loved ones. I mean, those are probably the most important things in anyone’s life. I don’t chase illusions, I chase dreams.<\/p>\n

I know there is still a lot about myself that I need to figure out as I strive to become successful in life. I\u2019m certain I will get there because I know I am not a quitter, and I will give my all till the very end to see myself at the top.<\/p>\n

I aspire to be a boss someday, having people work under me just as I\u2019ve worked under great people. This is one of my biggest dreams professionally, and one I do not take lightly. Everyone knows the road ahead is not as easy as it looks, but with God Almighty, my family, and shared passion friends, there is no stopping me.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
