Ben Armstrong, a well-known crypto analyst and YouTuber has recently an intriguing perspective on XRP’s current trading value.
XRP, a token closely watched in the crypto community, particularly after its legal battle with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), currently trades at around $0.60. While this figure might not represent an all-time high, Armstrong highlights why this price point might be pivotal for XRP.
The Bigger Picture: Institutional Interest And Market Dynamics
Armstrong’s analysis begins with the “adamantium” support level of $0.60 for XRP. Drawing an analogy with the fictional character Wolverine, who famously recovers from severe damage, Armstrong sees XRP’s resilience at this price as a sign of robustness.
Each time XRP’s value dips, it seemingly rebounds from this critical support level, suggesting a strong market faith in the token.
Armstrong goes beyond price analysis to consider broader market dynamics in his video. He notes that XRP’s previously traded price level of $0.62 has become particularly attractive to institutional and corporate investors.
transactions involving substantial quantities of XRP have increased significantly, indicating heightened interest from large-scale investors. This trend aligns with a broader global crypto market cap increase, suggesting ample liquidity for significant investments.
Armstrong also touches upon the strategic aspect of XRP’s price following Ripple’s legal victory over the SEC. He posits that a post-verdict price surge might have limited the token’s accessibility to a broader audience.
However, the current steadier price range, a retrace of the previously seen $0.72, allows for a more extensive accumulation of XRP, potentially setting the stage for a bigger bull run.
XRP Latest Price Action
XRP’s market performance has recently shown a notable decline, with its price falling by over 10% in the past two weeks. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at approximately $0.605, reflecting a 2.3% decrease in the past 24 hours.
Despite a significant bullish trend earlier this year, where it surged by 70.3% year to date, XRP remains substantially lower, down by 82.20%, from its all-time high of $3.40 in 2018.
This downward trend extends beyond just XRP’s price. The past two weeks have also decreased the asset’s daily trading volume, descending from highs of around $2.5 billion early last week to roughly $1.1 billion in the past 24 hours.
This decline in trading volume may signal a decrease in investor interest or market activity surrounding the asset, contributing to its reduced price.
Moreover, the broader crypto market has seen a mix of volatility and bearish trends, which might influence XRP’s performance. So far, Bitcoin has also declined by 2% in the past 24 hours, resulting in the drawdown of the global crypto market cap of 1.3% over the same period.

With a knack for words and a nose for trends, he has penned pieces for numerous industry player, including AMBCrypto, Blockchain.News, and Blockchain Reporter, among others.

Edyme’s foray into the crypto universe is nothing short of cinematic. His journey began not with a triumphant investment, but with a scam. Yes, a Ponzi scheme that used crypto as payment roped him in. Rather than retreating, he emerged wiser and more determined, channeling his experience into over three years of insightful market analysis.
Before becoming the voice of reason in the crypto space, Edyme was the quintessential crypto degen. He aped into anything that promised a quick buck, anything ape-able, learning the ropes the hard way. These hands-on experience through major market events—like the Terra Luna crash, the wave of bankruptcies in crypto firms, the notorious FTX collapse, and even CZ’s arrest—has honed his keen sense of market dynamics.
When he isn’t crafting engaging crypto content, you’ll find Edyme backtesting charts, studying both forex and synthetic indices. His dedication to mastering the art of trading is as relentless as his pursuit of the next big story. Away from his screens, he can be found in the gym, airpods in, working out and listening to his favorite artist, NF. Or maybe he’s catching some Z’s or scrolling through Elon Musk’s very own X platform—(oops, another screen activity, my bad…)
Well, being an introvert, Edyme thrives in the digital realm, preferring online interaction over offline encounters—(don’t judge, that’s just how he is built). His determination is quite unwavering to be honest, and he embodies the philosophy of continuous improvement, or “kaizen,” striving to be 1% better every day. His mantras, “God knows best” and “Everything is still on track,” reflect his resilient outlook and how he lives his life.
In a nutshell, Samuel Edyme was born efficient, driven by ambition, and perhaps a touch fierce. He’s neither artistic nor unrealistic, and certainly not chauvinistic. Think of him as Bruce Willis in a train wreck—unflappable. Edyme is like trading in your car for a jet—bold. He’s the guy who’d ask his boss for a pay cut just to prove a point—(uhhh…). He is like watching your kid take his first steps. Imagine Bill Gates struggling with rent—okay, maybe that’s a stretch, but you get the idea, yeah. Unbelievable? Yes. Inconceivable? Perhaps.
Edyme sees himself as a fairly reasonable guy, albeit a bit stubborn. Normal to you is not to him. He is not the one to take the easy road, and why would he? That’s just not the way he roll. He has these favorite lyrics from NF’s “Clouds” that resonate deeply with him: “What you think's probably unfeasible, I've done already a hundredfold.”
PS—Edyme is HIM. HIM-buktu. Him-mulation. Him-Kardashian. Himon and Pumba. He even had his DNA tested, and guess what? He’s 100% Him-alayan. Screw it, he ate the opp.
