Ripple and XRP continue to make headlines, and today, we’re addressing an achievement marked by the digital asset.
Crypto strategist Scott Melker said that he is bullish on XRP. The analyst is known in the crypto space as the Wolf of All Streets, and he tweeted that he believes the digital asset can hit $0.33 which is a surge of more than 22% from the current price.
$XRP (USD)
They laughed at me when I shared this trade.
But who's laughing now?
I am, I'm laughing because it's $XRP.
Profitable though.
I'm long with leverage on Phemex.https://t.co/HIoaFKaTBP pic.twitter.com/DTOLzBHPFv

Someone commented: “Last time I was long on XRP was in 2017. Now its time to long $xrp again with $spark 1:1 Airdrop in December 2020. And I have a buy signal. I’m long 50x. Fire #Bybit.”
There’s massive growth in the number of XRP whales
Melker’s predictions comes just after the intelligence platform Santiment revealed that there’s massive growth in the XRP whales.
$XRP has had an impressive +8.4% week, and it's currently the #1 rising asset in discussion rate on #crypto platforms. The rise of holders with coins containing large amounts of $XRP has been very apparent, as addresses with 10-1M tokens are at new ATH's. https://t.co/IMGAtsz2hf pic.twitter.com/n9X3nHRVDj
