XRP jumps 14% closing above key moving averages amid Bitcoin-driven rally, but golden cross not confirmed yet

XRP surged 14.21% to $1.40, closing above its 50-day and 200-day exponential moving averages for the first time since a bearish death cross formed. This move was mainly driven by a Bitcoin short squeeze and broader crypto market liquidity, not XRP-specific demand. The 50-day EMA remains below the 200-day EMA, so a bullish golden cross has not yet occurred. XRP’s breakout faces risks including reliance on Bitcoin’s price holding above $72,000 and the need for broader buying beyond concentrated South Korean volume. The upcoming CLARITY Act procedural vote on Sept. 15 could provide a regulatory catalyst to sustain the rally, but until then, the breakout remains unconfirmed and vulnerable to reversal.
