In the context of the Crypto Assets market generally moving sideways, XRP has performed excellently, showing strong pump momentum. The current XRP price has reached $2.33, rising 2.5% in 24 hours, with a weekly rise close to 7%.

Market analyst Ali Martinez pointed out through technical analysis that XRP is forming a potential 'head and shoulders' pattern. If this pattern is ultimately confirmed, XRP is likely to break through the key resistance level of $2.6. Martinez particularly emphasized the important price level of $2.35, believing that if XRP can firmly hold above this level, it will release a strong bullish signal. It is worth noting that last week XRP attempted to break through $2.35 but was unsuccessful, and subsequently oscillated within the range of $2.13-$2.35.

Another analyst holds a more optimistic view, predicting that XRP has the potential to reach 2.69 dollars, provided it successfully breaks through the resistance level of 2.4 dollars.

Factors supporting these optimistic expectations include the continuous inflow of funds into the XRP ecosystem. Data shows that in the past week, $10.6 million has flowed in, bringing the total inflow this year to $335 million. In addition, market rumors suggest that Ripple may obtain a banking license from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), which would allow U.S. users to use its stablecoin RLUSD, potentially significantly expanding its ecosystem's user base.

Meanwhile, another striking phenomenon is the rise of the meme coin BONK. In just 4 hours, the price of BONK surged by 24%, demonstrating strong market demand. However, the open interest only increased by 8%, suggesting that this wave of rise may stem more from investment interest in the spot market rather than leveraged trading.

As XRP and BONK perform well, market sentiment seems to be improving. Investors and traders are closely watching these potential breakout opportunities while also being aware of the volatility risks in the market.
