XRP has been under a lot of legal chokeholds due to the SEC and accessibility on centralized exchanges. This can be seen with a consistent support/resistance line that has been developing over the past 3 years. As the Ripple v. SEC case seems to be windling down, we may see a breakout similar to that in 2018, if not higher. Additionally, it is important to note that XRP is ISO 20022 compliant, an attractive stipulation for big banks and financial institutions.
For one, preemptively claimed a bullish flag w different timescales. For short term, would have been correct, but missed an easy downtrend line. You live and learn.
