In simple terms, XRP, which is the fourth-largest digital currency as of 2025, started the new year with vigor. It experienced an impressive increase in its transaction volume right at the beginning of the year.
According to crypto analyst Ali Martinez, there was a massive increase in transactions involving XRP at the beginning of 2025, reaching over $7 billion. This surge is one of the largest spikes in XRP transactions observed in recent times, as shown by a graph shared by Ali detailing XRP’s transaction volume in US dollars.
$XRP recently experienced a spike in transaction volume, surpassing $7 billion!

The increased number of transactions with XRP is happening because the overall cryptocurrency market is showing renewed enthusiasm at the beginning of 2025.
The optimistic feelings about XRP could also be significant. With the wider cryptocurrency market showing indications of a rebound, it’s possible that investors are boosting their investments in XRP, leading to increased trading activity.
As a researcher, I find it intriguing to note that the beginning of this year saw a remarkable surge in the value of XRP, reaching a peak where $1.3 billion worth of transactions were processed on the Korea-focused exchange Upbit. It’s worth mentioning that South Korean exchanges have a reputation for generating exceptionally high trading volumes for XRP. Historically, such intense activity on these platforms has been associated with significant price volatility, often pointing towards an upward trend.
After increasing for four days starting from December 31st, XRP peaked at $2.5 on January 4th, but then it started going down again.
What’s next for XRP price?
2024 was a remarkable year for XRP, as it reached a significant peak of $2.9 in December. Continuing its positive momentum, XRP has seen a 10% price increase over the past week. This promising trend suggests that XRP is starting off strongly in 2025 too.
Currently, XRP is experiencing a decrease of 1.97% over the past 24 hours, with its value at approximately $2.40. This decline occurred after investors faced resistance near the peak reached on January 4th, which was $2.50. The fall in XRP’s price also reflects a slight selling off in the crypto market as a whole following substantial gains at the beginning of the year.
Given the current situation, I’m keeping a close eye on the $2.24 mark in XRP’s price movement as it seems to be forming a symmetrical triangle pattern. If the XRP price starts to dip and breaks below $2.24, there’s a chance it could stay within its range for some time.
Conversely, if there’s a break and surge past the triangle formation, it could indicate the beginning of an uptrend. In such a case, we’d be focusing on a definitive break above the levels of $2.5 and then $2.72. This situation opens up the possibility of a rise towards $3.
