XRP surges 13% XRP extended its price rebound from a low of $1.34 on February 13 into the third day as the crypto market saw its strongest weekend price action in over 20 weeks. Sunday saw XRP price rise as much as 13%, from $1.50 to $1.67, alongside increasing volumes. XRP price rose 88% in the last 24 hours to $4.75 billion, according to CoinMarketCap. XRP open interest increased as well by 19% to $2.86 billion. XRP's price jump follows the broader crypto market recovery as a lower-than-expected CPI reading helped boost the outlook for Federal Reserve interest rate cuts in the markets. The consumer price index for January rose 2.4% from the same time a year ago, down 0.3 percentage points from the prior month, and the lowest since May 2025. This gave the markets a reason to believe that interest rate cuts could arrive sooner than expected, lifting both stocks and cryptocurrencies higher. #XRPL #RLUSD #XRP #XRP Ledger
