Ripple Price Analysis: XRP Breaks Down, Will $0.42 Be Intact?

Yesterday, Ripple had surged above $0.49 gearing up the crypto market for the next surge near $0.5. However, instead of taking a bullish uptrend, XRP price saw quite a few price drops after that.

The price trend of XRP has notably shifted down, as currently, it is struggling to hold onto its critical support prices. XRP price also seems to be affected by the recent hack incident in which a Singaporean cryptocurrency exchange Bitrue has lost 9.3 million XRP along with 2.5 million Cardano (ADA). 

Current Statistics:

At 11:29:51 UTC, XRP was trading at $0.4275 while trying to strike a strong rebound. Ripple holds $18,340,925,081 as its Market Capitalization while having Circulating Supply of 42,566,596,173 XRP. Ripple coin fetches RoI (Return on Investment) of 7,235.51%.

If Ripple continues its rebound, it may see one of its resistance level at $0.4792. Though it may see support level at $0.40, if the price sees a further loss.
