XRP Outlook: Coinbase USD–XRP Volume Up 365% on Jan 2, 2026; $3 if EMA Breaks

On January 2, 2026, direct USD‑to‑XRP trading volume on Coinbase jumped 365.51%, which Chad Steingraber says reflects new dollar bids entering via ETF vehicles rather than stablecoin swaps. With XRP near $2.00, analysts think a clean break above the 21‑month EMA could open a retest of the $3.00 area, echoing past rally patterns.
