Although the price of the asset is 56% below $3.84the all-time high (ATH) it reached in January 2018, there is every reason to believe that XRP may enter a bullish cycle in the short term.
In principle, because the open interest (OI) of XRP exceeded $2.73 billion for the first time in its historyaccording to Coinglass explorer data.
The OI is an important indicator that provides information about the market sentiment, trading activity and liquidity. It also reflects the number of futures contracts that are currently in circulation.
When the number of new contracts grows, whether long positions (upward price bets) or short positions (downward price bets), it exceeds that of closed contracts.
Thus, an increase in OI reflects greater activity in terms of liquidity and trading volume. That’s why, If open interest rises, it is a bullish signal among investors.
Another issue to highlight is that, thanks to this price increase, the currency issued by Ripple Labs surpassed BNB in terms of market capitalization and, at the time of publication of this note, It is the fifth most valuable asset.
Finally, it must be noted that Donald Trump’s victory in the United States elections sparked optimism in the market. During his campaign, he expressed your support for cryptocurrencies and promised friendly regulations for the sector.
