XRP is currently recording gains of 3.90% in the past 24 hours while trading at $0.149 but still at fourth place, as per Messari.

The digital lost the third place to Tether (USDT) following the violent sell-off last week that saw XRP falling to $0.11, a level was last seen in May 2017. Meanwhile, the market cap of most of the stablecoin increased, potentially signaling investors piling into cash. But the pain for the digital asset might not be over.

According to a trader with pseudonym Calmly it is time to accumulate XRP as the BTC chart is showing strength. “Begrudgingly, I think it’s time to start accumulating Ripple. The XRP / BTC chart looks like an accumulation of monthly support. The bitcoin pair held up during the crash,” said the trader.

XRP Bull Accumulating

XRP enthusiast Rober Art who has 12.9k followers on Twitter believes $0.10 is coming which according to him is a buy the dip opportunity.

Robert Art is all about XRP and Bitcoin as per his bio reads, and he sees XRP at $200 XRP and BTC at 1 million.

The fourth-largest digital asset by market cap of $4.34 billion is down by 96% from its all-time high of $3.92. But according to the XRP bull, it isn’t a bear market rather the “start of the accumulation zone” which he has been waiting to buy some dips. His latest buying target has projected the XRP even lower at $0.05.
