He highlighted resistance levels at $1.50 (2x the current price) and $3.60 (4x).

In his latest tweet, DonAlt stated that Dogecoin and XRP are the retail coins of old, outlining his entry levels for trading the altcoin.

Another trader, Mikybull Crypto, foresees a massive rally taking XRP to new all-time highs by March 2025.
