XRP is outperforming top altcoins and Bitcoin, based on price action in the daily chart. After the bounce on July 8, the coin has been edging higher, adding an impressive 50% when writing. Most crucially, the coin is turning around and is officially within a bullish breakout formation following gains of July 16. As things stand, buyers have the upper hand. Once more, prices are above a multi-week consolidation after the collapse in mid-April.

With XRP galloping higher, the coin is stretching gains versus BTC and ETH. So far, it is up 12% in 24 hours against the greenback, extending them to over 37% in the previous week. As XRP clear liquidation levels, the resulting short squeeze is pushing volume higher. In the past 24 hours, it now stands at over $3.3 billion, more than 2X the average of the last two weeks.
