XRP, the native coin for the XRPL network that is tapped by Ripple Labs to streamline global remittances and cross-border payments, is fast approaching the apex of the macro triangle consolidation that began after hitting its all-time high (ATH) in 2018.

With an inevitable violent breakout on the horizon, XRP is faced with several headwinds including the legal battle against the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the periodic Ripple sales that weigh heavily on secondary investors.

Since the onset of the SEC vs Ripple lawsuit, XRP price has gradually been decoupling from the rest of the crypto market. Despite the legal clarity handed over by Judge Analisa Torres in July last year, XRP price has trailed both Bitcoin and Ethereum in performance. According to Australia-based crypto enthusiast Bill Morgan, XRP FUDs can be attributed to poor performance instead of the escrow issue and the legal battles.

The Ripple and XRP community is waiting for the April trial when the fate will be determined. However, the US SEC has already lost several legal battles against the crypto industry leading to the approval of 11 spot Bitcoin ETFs. Meanwhile, the US Congress has been accused of playing double standards for not approving clear crypto regulations and still fighting the U.S. SEC Chair for using archaic laws to govern the nascent web3 industry.

Despite the weekly death cross between the 50 and 200 Moving Averages (MA), the XRP price continues to show strength for an imminent bullish breakout. Furthermore, XRP bulls have defended the support level around 54 cents and have respected a rising trend since mid-2022, which is characterized by higher highs and higher lows.
