If XRP maintains its upward momentum above $0.5321, it may encounter immediate resistance levels at $0.6139, followed by $0.6476. On the other hand, if XRP fails to sustain above $0.5321, it could target immediate support levels at $0.5012 and then at $0.4897. This could potentially trigger further price declines, pushing XRP towards its yearly low of below $0.4198.

Moreover, Ripple Labs has made headlines with a $1 million donation to the Commonwealth Unity Fund, a political action committee advocating for pro-crypto candidates. This move is seen as part of broader efforts within the cryptocurrency community to influence legislative outcomes, particularly concerning figures critical of digital assets.
