What to expect for XRP?

While XRP has traded majorly on the bullish territory this month, the asset is expected to deliver bigger price returns for May, surpassing the monthly gains seen so far this year.

As of the time of writing, XRP is already projecting a 7.77% gain for the month; this marks the highest monthly return recorded so far in 2024.

While a bigger price move is expected in the coming days, the month might turn out to become XRP's strongest month so far.
