How High Can XRP Price Go After the FOMC Meeting Today?
The post How High Can XRP Price Go After the FOMC Meeting Today? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
The U.S. Federal Reserve will announce its latest interest rate decision at the FOMC meeting today, October 28. The market expects a decent 25 basis point rate cut, a move already priced in by most investors. For that reason, the immediate impact on crypto markets may be limited.
At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.65, down about 1% over the last 24 hours. While price action remains muted, traders are closely watching how XRP might react once the rate decision is official.
Calm Before Movement
The broader crypto market has been relatively quiet this week. XRP, in particular, has lagged behind some altcoins that recently surged following ETF approvals, such as Hedera (HBAR) and Litecoin (LTC).
Hedera, for example, jumped nearly 10% in a day after confirmation of its upcoming ETF. That strong move caught many off guard, as the approval was widely expected but apparently not fully priced in. The sharp rally has led some analysts to believe the same could happen with XRP once its own ETF finally gets approval.
Why the FOMC Meeting Matters for XRP
A rate cut generally increases liquidity across markets, encouraging investors to move money into risk assets, including cryptocurrencies. If today’s decision confirms the expected cut, it could support a gradual rebound in XRP and the broader market.
Still, analysts warn that the scale of XRP’s next move will depend on how investors interpret the Fed’s tone. A more uncertain outlook from the central bank could limit gains in the short term.
Short-Term Outlook
From a technical standpoint, XRP faces strong resistance near $2.75 to $2.80, levels that it needs to reclaim to build upward momentum. Some short-term downside toward $2.55 remains possible before a new leg higher.
However, sentiment is improving as market conditions stabilize and excitement builds around a future XRP spot ETF. If fundamentals continue to strengthen, XRP could target the $3 mark soon.
