Despite a 34% drop in XRP price, traders are holding firm with a $5 call option dominating Deribit’s market at $4 million.
Many traders are using a strategy called covered calls, selling high-level out-of-the-money (OTM) calls while holding XRP to collect premiums and hedge risks.
Analysts predict a potential 60-84% surge in XRP price due to bullish technical signals, breakout from a descending trendline, and consolidation within a bullish pennant pattern.
For XRP to hit $5, a successful push beyond $3.50 is needed, maintaining the price above $2.50 and breaking resistance levels.
