XRP Price Jumps 4%, Will XRP End Week in Gains Amid Current Volatility?

XRP has managed to sustain its price growth for the better part of this week and, at the moment, it is up by 4% at the time of writing with a trading price of $0.4629. The digital currency has showcased grit all week long despite irregular growth in the price of Bitcoin (BTC) within the same time frame.

XRP has remained the torch bearer for the most capitalized digital currencies in the industry over the past week, growing by 7.94% in the trailing seven-day period.

With the impressive performance put up thus far, the question of whether or not XRP will close the week in gains remains in focus, considering the volatility that has started creeping in.

Different cryptocurrencies have different rates of growth, with Bitcoin down 0.94% over the past 24 hours with its price breaching the major support line at $27,000. At the time of writing, the coin is changing hands at $26,951, with market observers focused on how the trend in the top coin can affect other cryptocurrencies, including XRP.
