XRP surges 53% in a week, nearing $1.55 resistance amid strong ETF inflows and rising futures activity

XRP's price jumped about 53% over seven days, reaching nearly $1.54, close to a key resistance level at $1.55. This rally was supported by $39.78 million in U.S. spot XRP ETF inflows during Aug. 17–21, pushing total ETF assets to around $1.55 billion. Futures open interest also rose to $3.72 billion, indicating increased leveraged trading. Market watchers are focused on whether XRP can break above $1.55, which could trigger further gains, or if it will retreat to support around $1.45. The surge in active addresses by over 650% signals heightened network activity and potential volatility ahead.
