XLM Surpasses XRP: You Won’t Believe the Twist 😮

Well now, it appears that Stellar’s slid right into the limelight faster than a greased pig at a county fair, while poor XRP’s been busy wrestling its own tail in a tangle of price swoons and technical jitters. Despite lookin’ as lively as stale bread in the price department, recent figures show XLM’s been packin’ in more transactions than a busy hive, clearing a hefty 192 million operations in a single day (April 7, in case you’re countin’).

This upswing hints that folks are using the Stellar blockchain for actual money-moving fun, particularly between borders (everyone’s favorite game of “guess the fee”). Meanwhile, our pal XRP is wrangling with some stubborn support levels. Ever since it tumbled below $2—like an overeager acrobat missin’ the trapeze—it’s been struggling to climb back up. At press time, it’s moseyin’ around $1.88, droppin’ nearly 10% just today. 😬

Turns out XRP escaped a descending wedge only to trip again, with increased volume likely from folks boltin’ for the exits. The RSI’s a mite oversold, which basically says the house is on fire and everyone’s already run outside. Both XLM and XRP aim at cross-border shenanigans, but Stellar’s open architecture, stablecoin frolicking, and global remittance pals seem to be tempting new traffic its way. 🏆

Sentiment around XRP is shakier than a cow on ice, what with legal brawls and mysterious regulatory rules. Meanwhile, XLM, now around $0.22, isn’t entirely safe from the bears either. It’s slipped over 60% from its high-water mark yet clings to that $0.20 support line like a stubborn barnacle.

If the broader market decides to calm its nerves and folks keep usin’ this fancy Stellar contraption for real-world payments, XLM might see its price eventually perk up to match its on-chain hustle. For now, XRP may still hog the spotlight with its big name, but XLM seems to be waltzing off with the actual usage medal. Should this trend continue and XRP doesn’t grab its technical backbone soon, curious investors might mosey on over to Stellar’s side of the fence, more out of admiration for network hustle than price leaps… at least for the time bein’. 🤔
