Back in 2016 and 2017, when XRP was worth less than a penny, Ripple’s then-CTO David Schwartz laid out a rough roadmap of what the token could fetch if things went right. Related Reading: Bessent Presses Congress On Crypto Rules As Senate Clock Ticks Down Matching Bitcoin’s market share, he said, could push the price to around $2. Capturing a slice of global payments might justify $20. And if adoption grew beyond that, $120 was not out of the question. At the time, even reaching $1 seemed far-fetched. XRP has since crossed that threshold several times over. Validator Backs The Believers That history is now being used by XRP supporters to defend price targets that critics call absurd. An XRP Ledger validator who goes by the name Vet posted on social media this week that the people routinely mocked for their bold price predictions will likely come out ahead. “Being a dreamer is just too powerful,” Vet wrote, adding that those labeled delusional would win in the end. XRP price predictions aside. I may not like this observation. But i do think the delusional people will win at the end. Somehow, being a dreamer is just too powerful. — Vet (@Vet_X0) April 10, 2026 The post drew broad support from within the XRP community. One commenter, known online as X Finance Bull, said strong conviction carries people further regardless of the numbers. Another user argued there is only a thin line between being delusional and being early, with patience and timing ultimately determining who is right. $1,000 XRP Would Require A Market Cap Larger Than The US Economy The targets being floated are not modest. Reports indicate that XRP holders have been projecting prices anywhere from $100 to $1,000 and beyond, even as the token sits around $1.30 after nearly nine months of declining prices. Two commentators argued in a recent podcast that $1,000 per XRP is achievable within four to five years. Their reasoning pointed to Bitcoin’s track record of exceeding expectations, and the role that narrative and mass adoption play in crypto pricing. Critics, though, have been quick to flag the math. A $1,000 price tag for XRP would push the asset’s total market capitalization to somewhere between $50 trillion and $100 trillion — a figure that dwarfs the entire US stock market. XRP bulls typically counter that market cap is not a reliable ceiling for crypto assets. Related Reading: XRP Eyes $17 After Massive Breakout—Is A 1,100% Surge Next? The Dreamer Argument Has Historical Legs What makes the current debate harder to dismiss outright is how often crypto skeptics have been proven wrong. Schwartz’s own 2016 Reddit comments were recently surfaced by community members to show how dramatically market expectations can shift. What seemed mathematically impossible has, in several cases, happened anyway. Whether $1,000 XRP belongs in the same category remains an open question — one the market alone will eventually settle.

An analyst on X has made a bold call on Ethereum, stating that the asset is on the verge of a parabolic move. The claim is based on a golden triangle formation on the chart, a setup that shows a breakout could be approaching for the leading altcoin. This approaching breakout could also serve as the driving force for a broader altcoin market rally. Related Reading: Cardano In Danger Zone? Trader Drops ‘Time Bomb’ Claim Golden Triangle Pattern 9 Years In The Making Technical analysis of Ethereum’s 3-week chart stretching back to 2017 shows the cryptocurrency trading within a narrowing triangular structure. The pattern is defined by a rising lower trendline anchored from the March 2020 Covid crash low and a horizontal upper trendline connecting the rally peaks of 2021, 2024, and 2025. Over nearly a decade of price action, ETH has repeatedly respected both boundaries, with bounces within the narrowing range. This has led to the formation of a golden triangle, which is a macro structure with a better possibility of resolving to the upside. As it stands, the ETH price is trading at the lower end of this formation in what looks like a higher low compared to the lowest price in 2025. The projected move shows a bounce from this level that eventually pushes Ethereum to break above resistance and transition into an upward parabolic move. The projected breakout path on the chart shows ETH exiting the apex of this triangle to the upside, with a parabolic rally that climbs above $12,000 and beyond by 2027 to 2028. This move is expected to spill into other cryptocurrencies with a huge rotation that supports an altcoin season. Ethereum’s Golden Triangle. Source: @zenkaixbt On X $2,800 As The Next Stop While the Golden Triangle analysis looked at the macro context, analyst Crypto Feras has identified a more immediate target that could cement the first significant milestone of any sustained recovery. The analysis is based on the 3-day candlestick chart, and it is centered on the idea that Ethereum’s current structure is more important than short-term headlines. As noted by the analyst, Ethereum has maintained a consistent 3D pattern on higher time frames since February, even as markets reacted to external shocks, most especially the geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. This consistency has led to the same creation of a higher low compared to the 2025 bottom that respects a rising support line. This rising diagonal support line, visible in the chart below, connects the lows of 2022, 2023, and 2025, and each of those cycle bottoms preceded substantial rallies. Ethereum Price Chart. Source: @CryptoFeras On X The 2022 low produced a 91.72% recovery, the 2023 low was followed by a 167.79% rally, and the 2025 low was followed by a 223% rally.

Crypto analyst Abundance has provided an in-depth analysis of the Dogecoin price action, explaining why the foremost meme coin could still suffer another crash. On the other hand, he also revealed how Bitcoin’s price action could push DOGE higher from its current level. Dogecoin Price Still At Risk Of Crash To $0.06 In an X post, Abundance stated that the Dogecoin price could drop to around $0.06 to give the market another long on DOGE towards $0.16. His accompanying chart showed that $0.9176 is the key support the leading meme coin needs to hold above to avoid dropping to this new low. DOGE also risks dropping to as low as $0.03 it breaks down to $0.06. Related Reading: What’s The Value Of Dogecoin If It Matches Bitcoin And Ethereum Market Caps? The analyst also noted that the Dogecoin price has, instead of dropping, continued to move sideways, compressing price action. He added that time-cycle lows mark expansion points, not just bottoms. As such, Abundance stated DOGE could see upside from its current levels if the Bitcoin price pushes towards $77,500. He also pointed to the lower timeframes compared to the multi-timeframes, noting a possible bump-and-run pattern in Dogecoin price action and in many other altcoins, with tight invalidation for a nice risk-to-reward. As such, Abundance suggested that the best approach to the current market conditions was to keep an open mind, as DOGE could rally from current levels rather than drop further. Commenting on the higher timeframe, Abundance stated that he is still tilting towards a move lower for the Dogecoin price. He remarked that the more upside liquidity left untouched before sweeping downside liquidity, the more fuel there is for a higher-timeframe bullish expansion. The analyst added that May is the next local bottom he is watching for DOGE. A Demand Zone Between $0.09 and $0.06 Crypto analyst Ali Martinez pointed to the fractals for the Dogecoin price, noting that the zone between $0.090 and $0.060 is where he believes that smart money will start accumulating. He added that this is the “coiling” phase that historically happens before the next parabolic move for the foremost meme coin. Related Reading: Here’s Why The Dogecoin Price Could See Big Gains Soon The analyst previously alluded to DOGE’s monthly chart, highlighting the meme coin’s gains during the previous bull run. He also indicated that the Dogecoin price could bottom between $0.06 and $0.09 as it eyes a parabolic rally above $1 in the next bull run, marking a new all-time high (ATH) for the meme coin. Martinez also predicted that DOGE could reach $10 based on its historical price gains in past cycles. At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at around $0.09297, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Crypto markets are showing early signs that the worst may be over, following a prolonged decline that began with the industry’s sharp sell-off back in October of last year. In a new report shared on social media, technical analyst Ali Martinez says the market is now starting to form what he calls a structural floor. Next Cycle Setup For Crypto Leaders Martinez’s view is rooted in the idea that seven months of heavy volatility may also be creating a rare opportunity. For those focused on the longer-term picture, he argues, the current turbulence can act as a reset period before the next multi-year cycle. Rather than treating the current sell-off as purely negative, Martinez suggests it may be setting up the conditions for a new upward phase once the market stops bleeding. Related Reading: Adam Back Denies Being Bitcoin Creator In Response To NYT: ‘I Am Not Satoshi’ When looking at the “big picture” for broader crypto market structure, Martinez points to a metric he says helps define the floor: the CVDD Channel, which stands for Cumulative Value Days Destroyed. According to his analysis, Bitcoin’s “Golden Zone” is currently near $49,330. He claims that historically, entries into this area have tended to show up before bull market runs, and he outlines upside targets for what could follow—potentially reaching $178,478, and in an even more extended scenario, $273,158. The analyst then turns to Ethereum (ETH). Martinez says he is watching whether ETH is moving within a parallel channel pattern, and if that interpretation holds, he believes the zone between current levels and $1,070 could offer a high-conviction entry point. From there, he highlights an ecosystem-wide rally scenario with a macro target around $8,670 as the next major objective, framing it as a move that would emerge as the broader crypto ecosystem matures. Outlook For XRP, SOL, And DOGE For XRP, Martinez focuses on a specific support level as the key to determining whether the crypto market can stabilize. He says that if XRP can hold support near $0.80, it could create a strong “buy the dip” setup, potentially giving traders a chance before a later retest of XRP’s all-time high near $3.30 and beyond. Solana (SOL) is next, and Martinez suggests SOL may need a broader “generational” reset to complete the bottoming process. He argues that the possible low area ranges from $74 to $50, describing that band as a total reset of speculative “froth.” Martinez characterizes that kind of clearance as a major launchpad for the next upward move, implying that the more aggressive the washout, the more room there may be for the following leg higher. Related Reading: JPMorgan CEO Says Bank Must Build Its Own Blockchain To Counter Crypto Threats Finally, Martinez discusses Dogecoin (DOGE) using what he calls fractal signals. He says the memecoin’s chart structure indicates a coiling phase that often appears before the next parabolic move. In that context, Martinez points to a zone he believes is where larger, more informed buyers could begin accumulating. His range for that buildup is between $0.090 and $0.060, which he describes as the area where accumulation could start to intensify ahead of a potential upside surge.
