A top crypto analyst is making waves with a strong call: Going all-in on XRP should be a priority. That’s the message from Oscar Ramos, a widely followed figure in the crypto world, as the market turns green again.

Bitcoin just hit a new all-time high of $118,250 Friday, helping to fuel momentum across altcoins. XRP has been one of the top gainers during this run, jumping above $2.65 and showing signs of strength. At press time, it’s trading around $2.69—up over 10% in just a day.

The rising interest in XRP isn’t only about price moves. Ripple, the company tied closely to the altcoin, is rolling out developments that many say are pushing it into the spotlight again.

XRP Futures ETFs On The Way

The excitement around XRP is also getting a push from ETF news. Several futures-based XRP exchange-traded funds are lined up to launch this July. ProShares is preparing three futures ETFs with a planned rollout on July 14.

🐳 XRP’s market value has hit a 7-week high, crossing above $2.39 for the first time since May 23rd. What to watch for are the rising number & collective balances of whales holding at least 1M $XRP.

Two other firms are also stepping in. Turtle Capital will debut a 2X Long XRP ETF on July 21, while Volatility Shares has two more ETFs planned for the same date. Although the SEC hasn’t approved a spot XRP ETF yet, more than 10 applications are still under review.

Whale Wallets Near All-Time High

Another clear signal of growing confidence is coming from large XRP holders. Based on the latest data from Santiment, wallets holding at least 1 million XRP are now at 2,742—just one below the record of 2,743.

Price Holds Steady As Bullish Sentiment Grows

XRP is holding above $2.68 for the first time since May. Over the past 30 days, it had 16 green days out of 30, with price volatility sitting at 3.85%. According to the current forecast, the price could see a minor dip of 0.60% to around $2.57 by August 10.

They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that's not just a metaphor, it's a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.

Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats – a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).

Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling - right up his alley!

So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he's one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill).

Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.

Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin’ helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better.

Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies.

Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects.

So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words – the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
