XRP (XRP) registered a 297% uptick in November 2024, its highest monthly return on investment (ROI) since December 2017. The monthly close of $1.95 is also a seven-year high and a break above its 2021 top. 
XRP has already moved another 20%+ over the past 24 hours, and one analyst indicated that its price target could be much higher than expected.

With XRP exceeding market expectations over the past few weeks, Jacob Canfield, an independent crypto trader, said that XRP could rise another 100% from its previous all-time high of $3.40.

Alongside positive price action, the altcoin’s onchain footprint is also bullish, with both whale and small retail holders increasing their XRP allocation.
