Ripple’s XRP token has risen by 18 percent in the last five days. That was about time, the high point of 48 cents was reached at the end of 2018, after which the rate fell back to 22 cents at the end of September. Now that the price is rising again, analysts are positive again.
You can see that in the graph below. The rate rose from 22 cents to 26 cents.
What do the analysts say?
The first analyst we listen to and watch is The Crypto Dog. He says that the XRP / BTC pair is bearish but also sees that XRP can rise in satoshi value. A satoshi (sat) is 100 millionth of a bitcoin.
Dominance looking like hot garbage, $ XRP / $ BTC looking hungry.

Are you as positive about the price of XRP as the analysts above? Then this might be a good time to buy XRP. Please note, this is not financial advice. Hoping for a price rise is and remains a risk. Therefore, only invest with money that you can miss.
If you already have a wallet or are connected to an exchange, buy XRP from a broker such as BTC Direct. Pass on your receiving address and you will have your Ripple in no time.
Don’t have a wallet yet? Then we recommend the BLOX app for iPhone and Android. This is a free all-in-one app that allows you to own XRP within 2 minutes. And you will receive your first five euros if you enter the bitcoin code when registering.
