The third-largest cryptocurrency in the world is extending the consolidation after a falling triangle breakout failed to achieve the desired results. For now, XRP is teetering under the 50 Simple Moving Average on the 1-hour chart. The 100 SMA is standing at $0.2770 below the key resistance at $0.2800.
