Why XRP is up 1.5% in the last hour
Analysis
XRP rose about 1.5% over the past hour as broader market attention shifted toward relative strength among large caps, with CryptoPotato noting XRP competing with BNB for the #4 spot while BTC faced resistance near $73K. This modest rebound also comes after earlier risk-off pressure tied to geopolitical uncertainty—CoinDesk reported crypto assets (including XRP) dropping as the Iran ceasefire frayed—suggesting some short-term recovery from that dip.
