Why XRP is up 2.9% in the last hour
Analysis
XRP rose 2.9% in the past hour as bullish sentiment continued following reports that Ripple is backing an RLUSD credit fund, reinforcing momentum around Ripple-linked ecosystem activity (CoinDesk). The move also aligns with broader market positioning described as a Bitcoin-driven short-squeeze environment that helped lift XRP during its strongest stretch in months (Decrypt), alongside reports of heavy whale accumulation that can add near-term bid support (U.Today).
