XRP is testing a major macro support level that could play a decisive role in shaping its next trend. With momentum hanging in the balance, a strong rebound could signal the start of a recovery, while weakness may leave the door open for deeper losses. XRP Finds Strong Footing At Critical 0.786 Fibonacci Support In a recent market evaluation, crypto analyst CasiTrades noted that XRP has reached its major 0.786 macro support level, currently trading at $1.09 on Coinbase. The daily timeframe currently confirms the validity of this support, as the price action has respected this critical technical marker so far. Related Reading: XRP To $1 Or A Violent Reversal? Analyst Says Liquidity Setup Is Flashing The immediate focus for traders now shifts toward how the market reacts to this placement. CasiTrades identifies $1.19 and $1.27 as the primary resistance levels to monitor. As long as the asset is capped by these levels, the broader correction remains active, leaving the door open for a potential decline toward the $0.90 support zone at the 0.854 fib level. Conversely, a shift in market sentiment could render the bearish outlook invalid. If XRP demonstrates genuine buying pressure and succeeds in breaking through the established resistances, it would suggest that the market is forming a new trend rather than consolidating for another downward wave. Ultimately, this is one of the most pivotal moments of the entire correction phase. With the major support level officially tested and reached, the next few days will be essential to determining the long-term direction of the asset. XRP Enters A Critical Macro Decision Zone According to market analyst EGRAG CRYPTO, XRP is currently positioned exactly within a critical macro decision zone. The path forward is defined by specific technical thresholds that require sustained strength to validate a trend. Related Reading: XRP Long-Awaited Wave Structure Finally Unfolds – What Comes Next? Specifically, a monthly body candle close above $1.40 would suggest that the bottom was firmly established at $1.05, while reclaiming the $1.61–$1.65 range would signify the official start of a bullish recovery. A definitive break above $1.70 would provide even stronger confirmation of this momentum shift. If the price can successfully hold its ground, a double-bottom formation becomes a distinct possibility, setting the stage for a more robust rally. However, if XRP fails to hold this support and loses its current momentum, the technical setup warns that a retest of the $0.80 level is highly likely. While the upside potential remains contingent on breaking through those key resistance hurdles, the downside risk remains active if the current support falters. Traders should remain cautious, as the resolution of this macro decision zone will dictate whether the asset initiates a new bullish cycle or enters a deeper retracement.

XRP’s price action has come under heavy pressure in recent days alongside the rest of the market, falling back into a major support region around $1.10 with sellers still controlling short-term momentum. The decline has placed XRP directly inside a notable zone on the monthly candlestick long-term chart. Particularly, technical analysis done by crypto analyst EGRAG CRYPTO indicates that XRP may still face one more liquidity sweep before a much larger move above $10. XRP In Face-Melting Phase EGRAG’s analysis is based on the monthly candlestick timeframe chart depicting XRP’s behavior around the 50-month and 100-month exponential moving averages. According to the analyst, XRP has shown a recurring pattern on higher time frames whenever it loses the 50 EMA decisively. The breakdown is usually followed by weak momentum, emotional selling, and a final liquidity sweep into the 100 EMA before the next rally kicks off again. Related Reading: XRP Price To See Violent Discontinuous Repricing And $10 Could Only Be The Start That model is important because XRP’s current monthly candle has already opened the current weekly candlestick below the 50 EMA, placing the price action in a fragile position. This positions XRP in a face-melting phase where it has a possibility of falling to the 100 EMA, while the market continues searching for its true macro bottom. The analyst’s projected path leaves room for more downside first, with the chart pointing to a possible crash below $1. However, one of the more counterintuitive dimensions of EGRAG CRYPTO’s analysis is what he does while anticipating further downside. Rather than waiting for a confirmed reversal, the analyst is actively building a position across a range of entry prices at $1.09, $0.92, $0.85, and even $0.70, treating each level as a probability zone. The Numbers Say XRP Is Headed Above $10 Another interesting part of the analysis is not the possible move lower, but the upside numbers that follow it. EGRAG’s chart shows a major recovery path out of the current support range and into a break above the current cycle high at $3.65. The projections show upside levels highlighted at $9, $13, $17, $20, and $27. Related Reading: Ripple IPO Is Not A Pipe Dream: Industry Expert Predicts When XRP Investors Should Expect Public Listing EGRAG’s point is that the exact bottom may matter less if XRP eventually reaches these projected bullish targets. Risk management matters more than catching the exact bottom, and his example compares entries at $1.09, $0.92, $0.85, or $0.70 with upside targets at $7, $8, $13, and mid-double-digit prices. Entering at those low prices will not matter when XRP reaches those high targets. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $1.14, down by 12% in the past seven days. A move from the current $1.14 price to $10 would require a rally of about 777%. A climb to $13 would represent a gain of more than 1,040%. Lastly, a rally to the $27 level on the chart would require XRP to rise by more than 2,260% from the current range. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com
Crypto pundit BarriC has said that an XRP price rally to $10,000 isn’t possible at the moment. He also revealed what needs to happen for the altcoin to potentially reach this level and even rally to $50,000. Pundit Says XRP Price Cannot Rally To $10,000 Now In an X post, BarriC stated that the XRP price cannot reach $10,000 to $50,000 if the altcoin remains purely a retail asset, which investors can buy and trade on exchanges. Instead, he explained that the only way this can happen is if XRP becomes part of the global financial infrastructure. Related Reading: Analyst Says XRP Path To $100 Is Not Straightforward, These Things Will Happen First The pundit further remarked that this could happen if XRP becomes integral to how every bank and financial institution worldwide conducts finance. Once this happens, the pundit predicts that the XRP price will no longer be low and will no longer experience a bear market as it is currently experiencing. BarriC assured that the XRP price will stabilize at a higher level, between $10,000 and $50,000, once trillions of dollars flow directly into and through XRP on a daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly basis. He declared that this will be the price people must pay for XRP, and that those who diligently accumulated and held will be rewarded for their patience and perseverance. Interestingly, the pundit stated that the XRP price could reach $10,000 this year. This came as he declared that XRP will move from $2 to $10, $10 to $100, $100 to $1,000, $1,000 to $10,000, and that all these price shifts for the altcoin could happen this year. BarriC also mentioned that the shift could happen faster than many expect, with many market participants potentially missing out on life-changing wealth. XRP Still At Risk Of A Major Decline For Now Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has indicated that the XRP price is still at risk of a major decline at the moment. He noted that the Fib 0.618 at $1.51 is acting as the first major resistance and that so far, the altcoin has failed to provide confirmed closes above this level. Meanwhile, the analyst also mentioned that the next key resistance becomes the Fib 0.702 at $1.83. Related Reading: If You’re Holding XRP, This Pundit Says You Should See This He explained that these two levels are extremely important because they determine whether the XRP price is transitioning into a bullish Wave 5 expansion or remains trapped within a larger corrective structure. Egrag Crypto said that if XRP cannot reclaim these levels, then the technical Elliot Wave measured move still favors a decline to the Fib 0.382 at $0.89 or even the Fib 0.236 at $0.64. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.39, down nearly 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Crypto analyst Tom has declared that a projected XRP rally to $21.5 isn’t a gamble and will definitely happen. This came as he revealed that a measured move is coming for the altcoin, which will send its price to this $21 target. XRP Eyes Measured Move To New ATH Of $21.5 In an X post, Tom said that XRP is set to see a measured move to a new all-time high (ATH) of $21.50, with this price target also his second take-profit zone. The analyst revealed that he had held XRP when the token was trading at $0.30 and and held until it reached its current ATH of $3.84. Related Reading: XRP Analyst Reveals The Question No One Asks And Why It’s Important Now, the analyst is again holding the token, targeting higher prices for XRP. He highlighted some positives as the token eyes the $21.50 target, noting that the 3-week golden cross has fired. Furthermore, Tom noted that the current base is a 1:1 fractal of the 2014 to 2017 cycle and that the volume is lower than the last cycle’s bottom, with supply gone. In another X post, the analyst reiterated his bullish outlook for XRP, citing the CLARITY Act as a catalyst that could spark a rally. His accompanying chart showed that the altcoin could reach $2.8 by July, which is around when the crypto bill could pass. The bill is a positive for XRP, as it will provide regulatory clarity by classifying XRP as a commodity. Crypto analyst Michael also echoed similar sentiments about XRP, stating that a parabolic rally could begin at any time. He declared that this will be the biggest breakout of the year, as the altcoin has already bottomed. XRP Yet To Bottom Despite Recent Relief Rally Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has indicated that XRP has yet to bottom despite its recent rally above $1.4. In an X post, he stated that the weekly chart presents a very interesting diminishing downside structure relative to the 200 SMA. He noted that during the first major cycle low, XRP bottomed roughly 60% below the 200 SMA. Meanwhile, during the second major cycle low, the token bottomed roughly 40% below the 200 SMA. Related Reading: XRP Price Is Replicating The 2017 Trend And The Implications Are Parabolic Applying the same diminishing downside pattern, the analyst said the next major low could be 20% below the 200 SMA, implying a price target of $0.93. Egrag Crypto stated that this thesis wasn’t unreasonable because mature assets tend to experience reduced downside volatility and smaller capitulation percentages. Such assets are also said to have stronger macro support structures and more institutional liquidity stabilization. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.45, up over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com
Crypto analyst Dark Defender has alluded to history to predict a 1,008% rally for XRP, which could send its price above $10. This comes as the altcoin looks to build a base at $1.4 amid the recent recovery in the crypto market. XRP Eyes Rally Above $10 As Price Looks To Mirror Past Gains In an X post, Dark Defender predicted that XRP could record a 1,008% gain, rallying to as high as $18. This is expected to be similar to the gains that XRP recorded in the 2021 bull run, when it rallied to $1.72. The analyst noted that history doesn’t repeat itself but that it rhymes, which is why the altcoin could see a similar gain. Related Reading: XRP Price Is Replicating The 2017 Trend And The Implications Are Parabolic Notably, the analyst had earlier noted that XRP is maintaining the primary structures and levels and that a correction on the weekly time frame is technically over. Based on this, he declared that a directional move is inevitable as long as $1.31 is maintained. XRP is currently holding above $1.40 amid Bitcoin’s rally to as high as $82,000. The recent crypto market recovery has provided optimism that the bull market may be back. Crypto analyst ChartNerd also provided insights into XRP’s current price action as the altcoin eyes a rally to new local highs. In an X post, he stated that XRP’s multi-month compression range is tightening while the weekly 20/55 EMAs sit above as resistance. The analyst further remarked that a successful breakout of this structure toward $1.80 would mark a critical inflection point. However, he warned that liquidity hotspots suggest alternative short-term price scenarios. Analyst Points To Symmetrical Triangle On XRP’s Chart In an X post, crypto analyst Egrag Crypto said that the symmetrical triangle on XRP’s chart is becoming impossible to ignore. This came as he noted that the price keeps compressing tighter and that this type of structure historically leads to a violent expansion move. The analyst further remarked that the measured targets are becoming crystal clear, but the $1.80 to $1.90 zone is a major resistance to this expansion. Related Reading: Bitcoin And XRP Are Seeing A Surge In Adoption, Here Are The Numbers Egrag Crypto explained that this zone is not just a resistance but also a macro trend barrier. The analyst predicted that XRP could see a rapid move to $2.30 if the altcoin breaks through this zone with conviction, especially with support bouncing from the White Line structure. However, he added that he was still leaning toward the “fake pump” scenario first, despite this bullish setup for the altcoin, as it tends to trap breakout traders before the real move. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.41, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP is entering a critical phase as its price action tightens within a symmetrical triangle, signaling that a major move may be imminent. With volatility compressing and market pressure building, the current structure suggests that a breakout could be both sharp and decisive. Triangle Compression Tightens As XRP Nears Apex XRP is currently exhibiting a classic consolidation phase, carving out a well-defined symmetrical triangle on the daily chart. According to analyst Ali Charts, as the price action funnels toward the apex of this formation, market energy is coiling intensely, a phenomenon that historically precedes a massive spike in volatility. Related Reading: XRP Signals Massive Breakout: $10 Target In Sight As Momentum Builds Based on the height of the triangle formation, technical projections suggest that a decisive breakout could trigger a price movement of approximately 26%. However, because symmetrical triangles are inherently neutral patterns, they offer no directional bias until the price escapes the structure. To avoid the risks associated with market noise and fake-outs, a strict no-trade zone has been designated between $1.35 and $1.45. Engaging in positions within this narrow corridor often results in being trapped by short-term fluctuations that do not reflect the true trend. The most prudent strategy involves waiting for a confirmed daily close outside of this range to validate the next leg. A successful close above the $1.45 resistance would set a bullish target of $1.82, while a breach below the $1.35 support could see the price slide toward the $1.00 level. Despite steady institutional inflows via ETFs, retail momentum is still waiting for a spark; therefore, patience is the primary advantage until the market prints a definitive close. Bear Trap Setup Signals Potential Market Deception In a recent technical update, Egrag Crypto suggests that the current XRP market structure is potentially laying the groundwork for one of the most significant bear traps in its history. This setup typically involves a deceptive downward move designed to lure sellers into short positions just before a massive upward expansion. According to the analysis, this maneuver often precedes a major breakout, serving as the final liquidity grab before the next leg up. Related Reading: XRP Price Set To Rise As It’s Set To Capture A $180 Trillion Market; Analyst The technical indicators suggest that price compression has reached a state of maturity, with the market structure tightening. This phase of the market cycle is specifically designed to shake out weak hands before the momentum flips from consolidation to a violent trend. A critical component of this thesis is the invalidation level, which currently sits at the $1.80 mark. A decisive daily close above this resistance, combined with a confirmed breakout from the prevailing falling wedge pattern, would effectively cancel the bear trap theory. Until that breakout occurs, the current setup remains a high-probability scenario for a violent market movement. Maintaining a strategic perspective during this tightening phase is essential, as the eventual exit from this pattern is expected to be both swift and aggressive.

The XRP Ledger (XRPL) has achieved a new milestone, hitting $3 billion in total tokenized value on the network. Crypto pundit X Finance Bull highlighted the significance of this milestone, although it looks unlikely to have any impact on price for now. XRP Ledger Hits $3 Billion In Total RWA Value According to data from RWA.xyz, the XRP Ledger has reached $3 billion in total RWA value, representing a 59% increase over the last 30 days. The network currently has 291 RWA projects on the network. Crypto pundit X Finance Bull noted that in a market where people keep acting like utility does not matter, money is still finding its way to chains built for real finance. Related Reading: XRP Ledger Transactions Are Surging Again, Here Are The Numbers The crypto pundit reiterated that institutions are not guessing but moving toward infrastructure they can actually use. In another X post, X Finance Bull cited Ripple executive Luke Judges, who said that the total tokenized RWA value on the XRP Ledger is already closer to $3.75 billion. The pundit remarked that the goal is for the XRP Ledger to rank first in total RWA value, while the network currently ranks 5th. Ripple is currently one of the projects tokenizing on the XRP Ledger with its RLUSD stablecoin, which has a total value of almost $382 million on the network. Ondo Finance has also tokenized its short-term government treasuries on the XRP Ledger, with a total value of $323 million. Justtoken’s JMWH is the largest tokenized asset on the XRP Ledger with a total value of $1.76 billion. The token represents real-world energy-backed transactions. Justtoken also focuses on tokenizing several commodities. Milestone Unlikely To Impact XRP Price For Now Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto stated that XRP’s wave 2 move to the downside is not done yet, signaling that this XRPL milestone is unlikely to impact price for now. The analyst also mentioned that the market is not done shaking out weak hands, with XRP’s momentum still stalling and the structure weakening. Related Reading: The Crash Is Over? XRP Price About To Hit ‘Significant Bottom’ Commenting on the current price action, Egrag Crypto stated that XRP is sitting inside the red flag zone between $1.46 and $1.80. The key levels to watch are $1.46 (immediate support), $1.13 (confirming a breakdown), and $0.90 to $0.73 (likely the wave 2 completion). The analyst noted that the bearish path is preferred for now. As such, XRP losing $1.46 is likely to trigger a continuation lower toward $1.13, then a drop below $1. This is expected to trigger a deep Wave 2 reset before expansion. Meanwhile, a bullish invalidation will occur if XRP reclaims the $1.80-$2 range and closes weekly above it. This will then lead to a Wave 3 expansion, with targets of $5, $8, and $13. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.39, down over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP is showing signs of calm, but the underlying structure tells a different story. Following a major breakout, the price has shifted into a tight consolidation range, often a precursor to powerful expansion moves. With key support levels holding and momentum quietly building, the stage appears set for a breakout that could catch many off guard. XRP Breaks Free: Multi-Year Compression Finally Gives Way EGRAG CRYPTO highlighted a major structural shift in XRP that many market participants may be overlooking. According to the analyst, XRP has broken out of a multi-year compression phase spanning from 2018 to 2024, marking a significant macro development. After reaching the 1.618 Fibonacci level around $195 billion in market cap, price action has since entered a consolidation phase. Related Reading: XRP Signals Massive Breakout: $10 Target In Sight As Momentum Builds Despite the pause, XRP continues to hold firmly above the 1.0 Fibonacci level, roughly in the $73–74 billion range. The analyst emphasized that this behavior should not be mistaken for weakness. Instead, it reflects a classic re-accumulation phase before a potential expansion to higher levels. A key level to monitor is the $73 billion mark, which now acts as a critical line in the sand. Holding above this zone keeps the broader bullish structure intact and allows it to flip into a strong macro support level. Such stability reinforces the idea that XRP is undergoing accumulation rather than distribution, strengthening the case for further upside. However, a break below $73 could cause a decline toward an ascending trendline support, signaling the need for a deeper reset before any continuation higher. Why Holding $73B Keeps The Bullish Structure Alive EGRAG CRYPTO went on to emphasize that the focus should remain on the upside as long as XRP holds above the critical $73 billion level. Maintaining this threshold keeps the overall structure intact, while momentum continues to build beneath the surface, with the next expansion move gradually taking shape. Related Reading: XRP Sends Bullish On-Chain Signal Despite Weak Price Action Looking at the broader picture, he outlined a macro target of $600 billion in market capitalization, aligned with the 1.618 Fibonacci extension. Reaching this level would place XRP near the $10 price mark, highlighting the potential magnitude of the move. He also described the current market cycle as a sequence of compression, breakout, retest, and expansion. Based on this framework, XRP is currently in the retest phase, a crucial stage that often determines whether the breakout will lead to a sustained upward trend or require further consolidation. The $73–74 billion zone continues to define the bullish boundary, while $46 billion (0.702 Fibonacci) serves as strong underlying support. Losing the $73 billion level could trigger a deeper reset before continuation. In his view, respecting and defending this level is critical because once the real move begins, it is likely to unfold rapidly rather than gradually.

Crypto pundit UnknowDLT has revealed that Japan has provided regulatory clarity for XRP, classifying it as a financial instrument. This comes amid predictions about the altcoin’s trajectory, including a possible rally to $10. Japan Classifies XRP Along With Stocks And Bonds In an X post, the pundit noted that Japan has reclassified crypto assets as financial instruments, meaning that XRP now has the same legal status as a stock or bond. He added that the country with the strictest crypto regulations in the world has just put XRP on par with traditional financial assets. Related Reading: Massive XRP Adoption Trend Paints The Most Bullish Picture Yet Amid this development, XRP pundit XRP Update noted that Japan was one of Ripple’s earliest strongholds. The pundit noted that, through its partnership with SBI, the company launched On-Demand Liquidity (ODL), using XRP as a bridge asset to enable real-time cross-border payments and eliminate pre-funding. Since then, XRP has continued to witness massive adoption in Japan. Crypto pundit Xaif recently noted that Japan is tokenizing payments on the XRP Ledger. Specifically, SBI and Tobu Top Tours have partnered to issue prepaid payment tokens on the XRP Ledger, which are tied to the 30 trillion yen market. Furthermore, Japanese crypto firm Rakuten Wallet has listed XRP for its 44 million users. These users will be able to buy XRP with loyalty points and can spend them across the country. This is part of an integration that connects XRP to up to 5 million merchants in the country. As such, XRP continues to see massive adoption in the country amid the token’s reclassification as a financial instrument. A Rally To $13 Still In Play For XRP Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has stated that an XRP rally to between $9 and $13 is still in play. He noted that market participants are focused on the descending triangle but are missing the bigger picture. He acknowledged that after 14 months of accumulation, the token formed this descending triangle and broke down as it statistically should. Related Reading: XRP Is At A Critical Decision Point, But Can Price Still Rally To $2? However, Egrag Crypto said that this breakdown is not a trend failure but rather a liquidity sweep inside a macro uptrend. He added that the real structure is the Bifrost Bridge and that as long as XRP is rising in this macro channel, then the trend is intact. Also, the structure is bullish while the move is unfinished, signaling a further rally to the upside. The analyst stated that triangles are short-term patterns and that channels define cycles. As such, Egrag Crypto is confident that XRP will still rally to as high as $13, with XRP still inside this macro channel. He added that a long accumulation translates to an explosive expansion. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.45, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com
Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has outlined three key targets for XRP, including $31, signaling that the altcoin could reach double digits at some point. This comes as XRP eyes a parabolic surge to the upside amid a 2-week ceasefire agreement between the U.S. and Iran. Analyst Outlines Three Key Zones For XRP In an X post, Egrag Crypto outlined $7, $10, and $31 as the top Fib 1.618 targets for XRP. The analyst described these levels as battle zones, signaling that this is where the altcoin could face significant resistance as it eyes higher price levels. He also noted that these are not random levels but that they define the true support framework. In another X post, Egrag Crypto highlighted a Descending Broadening Wedge pattern, which signaled that an expansion was on the horizon for XRP. He noted a strong base holding around $0.90 and compression near the upper boundary, indicating that pressure is building. Related Reading: The Last Time XRP Made This Move Against Bitcoin, It Led To A 500% Increase To $3.3 The analyst stated that the probability of a bullish expansion for XRP is between 55% and 60%. He further remarked that a break above $3.30 will lead to rallies to $5, $8, and $13. On the other hand, Egrag Crypto warned that there is a 40% to 45% chance of a fake breakdown, in which XRP could sweep below $0.90, then reclaim this level and record a parabolic surge. Meanwhile, he gave a 10% to 15% probability of a full failure, in which XRP breaks its current structure, and no reclaim occurs. Egrag Crypto noted that a Descending Broadening Wedge pattern is not weakness but rather “controlled chaos before expansion.” The analyst added that the longer this pattern coils, the more violent the move will be. The key levels for XRP are $3.30 and $0.90, which Egrag Crypto described as the “trigger” and “line in the sand” respectively. He concluded that the current setup is a volatility expansion rather than a random range. Price Could Still Drop To $0.87 Crypto analyst CasiTrades has warned that XRP could still drop to $0.87 on the last wave to the downside. This came as she stated that price has failed to make a new high and has instead printed a clean 5-wave right into resistance. She added that a bearish divergence has formed, signaling weakness and exhaustion at resistance. Related Reading: Are Institutions About To Trigger A Massive XRP Supply Shock? Here’s How Much They’re Holding XRP could drop to $1.13 on the first wave down, then see a small relief before it continues toward $1.08, which is the macro .786 support. CasiTrades stated that the altcoin could see another chop or relief bounce before breaking lower into the $0.87 range, which is the macro .854 support. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.38, up over 5% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP is entering a critical phase where short-term weakness meets a potentially explosive macro setup. With price coiling within a larger expansion pattern, the current move may be less about direction and more about building pressure for a much bigger breakout ahead. A Coiling Within Explosive Expansion Setup In an XRP update, EGRAG CRYPTO emphasized that the market is approaching a critical moment, describing the current setup as an “elastic coil” nearing its breaking point. The broader structure is defined by a descending broadening wedge, a formation often associated with powerful expansion phases rather than weakness. Related Reading: XRP Price Meets Resistance, Tough Challenge Caps Upside Momentum The setup highlights a clear macro structure, with XRP maintaining a strong base around the $0.90 level while price continues to compress near the upper boundary. This tightening action signals building pressure, suggesting that the market may be preparing for a significant directional move. From a probability standpoint, the outlook leans slightly bullish, eyeing a 55%–60% upside expansion. A confirmed breakout above $3.30 could open the door to higher targets at $5, $8, and potentially $13 or beyond. There is also a potential of a 40%–45% breakdown scenario, where the price briefly dips below $0.90. A full bearish failure remains the least likely outcome, estimated at just 10%–15%, and would only come into play if the structure breaks down completely without any meaningful recovery. The key takeaway is that the descending broadening wedge represents controlled volatility rather than instability, with longer compression typically leading to a more explosive move. Key levels remain clearly defined, with $3.30 acting as the primary breakout trigger and $0.90 serving as the critical support line. The overall message is straightforward: the current price action reflects a volatility expansion setup, where structure holds greater importance than short-term noise. XRP Confirms Textbook TCT Distribution Setup According to crypto analyst The Composite Trader, XRP confirmed a textbook TCT Model 1 distribution schematic during the New York PM session, a setup that had been developing throughout the day. The confirmation came with a clean and decisive bearish break, as the expert anticipates a bearish order flow observed across major cryptocurrencies. Related Reading: XRP Eyes Massive Breakout, But Not Before A Potential Shakeout Following the breakdown, price continued to move efficiently toward its projected technical target, completing the anticipated reversal overnight. This follow-through reinforced the validity of the distribution model, allowing for a partial take-profit (TP1) of 25% to be secured. The reaction highlights how structured setups, when aligned with market context, can deliver precise and measurable outcomes. Focus now shifts to the next phase, as the analyst watches closely to see whether XRP can break below its current lows. A successful move lower from here could signal a deeper, higher-timeframe reversal. With volatility starting to increase and momentum building, Q2 is already showing signs of becoming an active and opportunity-filled period.

XRP is currently sitting at a key transition zone where market structure is being tested, and direction is about to be decided. Historical patterns suggest that periods like this don’t last long, often leading to significant moves once the price breaks out of consolidation. With both bullish and bearish scenarios still in play, the next move could set the tone for what comes next. XRP Enters Critical Decision Zone In a recent XRP analysis, EGRAG CRYPTO highlighted that price is currently sitting at a highly sensitive level, one that could determine the market’s next major direction. This zone represents a key inflection point, where market structure is being tested, and a decisive move is likely to follow. Related Reading: XRP Price Turns Soft, Red Signals Renewed Bearish Pressure If this level holds, XRP could begin to grind higher as buyers step in to defend the support. On the other hand, a failure to hold this zone would likely trigger a deeper correction, with price potentially revisiting lower support levels around $1.15. That makes the current range a critical battleground, where the next move could set the tone for the coming weeks. Historical behavior adds more weight to this setup. In previous cycles, a similar signal appeared when the yellow line crossed above the red line, a shift that often aligned with the market approaching a bottom. While not an exact timing tool, the crossover has consistently marked an important transition phase in XRP’s price action. The timing around this signal has varied across cycles, with the 2018 bottom forming roughly 126 days after the cross, while in 2022, the bottom occurred about 42 days before it. In both cases, the crossover identified a zone rather than a precise bottom, suggesting that XRP was either at or very close to its lowest point. With the same signal now appearing again, it points to the possibility that the market is once more entering a key transition zone where a major move could soon unfold. Watching The Levels That Matter Most The analyst went on to outline the key levels being closely monitored, emphasizing that a weekly close above $1.80, aligned with the yellow line, would signal that XRP is reclaiming its market structure and could begin shifting momentum back in favor of the bulls. Related Reading: XRP Eyes Massive Breakout, But Not Before A Potential Shakeout A stronger confirmation would come from a decisive break and sustained hold above the $2.20 level. Achieving that would signal a transition into a more aggressive expansion phase, often referred to as full thrust mode, where bullish momentum accelerates, and price action becomes more directional. On the other hand, failure to reclaim the $1.80 level would suggest that the market is not yet ready for a sustained upside move. In that case, downside pressure would remain active. The strategy remains centered on confirmation rather than prediction, allowing price action to validate the next move. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com
Prominent market analyst and XRP enthusiast Egrag Crypto has shared another bullish prediction on the fourth-largest cryptocurrency, tipping a potential price surge to $22. This prediction comes amid a calm movement in the XRP market after prices suffered a rejection at the $1.60 price level earlier in the week. Related Reading: The Bear Market Divergence That Shows What’s Really Going On With Bitcoin XRP Set For Price Expansion Despite Pullback – Here’s Why In an X post on March 31, Egrag Crypto outlines a budding bullish pattern in the XRP market, highlighting key factors such as triggers, rationale, probability moves, and invalidation zones. The seasoned market expert shares an analysis of the XRPUSDT monthly chart, indicating that action over the last six years has now completed the formation of a bullish W pattern. XRP is presently in the second phase of this green structure, marked by a breakout that occurred in 2025, followed by the ongoing pullback that has occupied the market since October. During this time, XRP has declined by over 56%. However, Egrag has stated this represents a classic W pattern marked by breakout, pullback, and an eventual expansion. The 1st trigger for this expansion is that XRP must reclaim and hold above the $1.60-$1.80 region, which ensures the bullish structure remains intact. However, a decisive reclaim of $2.00 would represent confirmation of the expected bullish surge, with an initial target of $3.30, which opens the path to higher price levels upon a successful capture. In terms of final price targets, Egrag states a 25%-35% chance the bullish pattern plays out fully, driving XRP’s price to $22. On the conservative side, there is 50%-60% chance XRP peaks within the $3-$8 range, while chances for a failure or deeper reset stand around 10%-15%. Notably, this positive analysis is based on multiple factors, including the historical projection from typical W patterns following breakout from a recognized neckline, combined with macro cycle behavior. Related Reading: XRP Price Is Maintaining This Multi-Year Trendline, But A Crash Could Be Looming XRP Bullish Structure Hinges On Key $1.40 Support According to Egrag, the presented bullish pathway can be invalidated by multiple developments. One of which is the loss of the key support region between $1.40 -$1.20, causing the pullback to translate into a long-term downtrend. Other nullifying factors include a clear failure to reclaim the $2.00 region or a decline in market bullish momentum, creating a fake breakout. At the time of writing, XRP trades at $1.41, reflecting a 2.33% decline in the last 24 hours. Notably, the altcoin has recorded negligible changes on higher time frames, reporting a 0.61% gain and 0.35% loss on the weekly chart and monthly chart.

XRP is showing signs of a potential trend reversal as a multi-cycle triple bottom formation begins to take shape on the macro chart. This rare structure suggests that selling pressure may be nearing exhaustion, with price stabilizing around key support levels. As the pattern approaches completion, attention is shifting to whether this setup could mark the end of the downtrend and the start of a new bullish phase. XRP Forms Rare Multi-Cycle Triple Bottom Structure Charting the macro structure, EGRAG CRYPTO highlighted that the XRP chart is forming a pattern that many market participants may be overlooking, a multi-cycle triple bottom formation. Patterns like this carry weight because markets move in repeating cycles rather than random chaos, and XRP now appears to be approaching what could be the final phase of this long-term setup. Related Reading: The $1.35 Floor: How Extreme Negative Funding Is Priming XRP For A High-Velocity Trend Reversal From a structural perspective, the chart reveals three major base formations developing over several months, while price continues to respect its broader trendline and moving average structure. Furthermore, the current price action is believed to represent the final descending phase of the pattern, typically defined as the ABC corrective structure. If this interpretation proves accurate, XRP could be nearing the completion of its final corrective leg, known as wave C. Also, this stage often marks the exhaustion of selling pressure, suggesting that the market may be approaching a key inflection point where a shift from correction to expansion becomes more likely. The most important area to watch lies around the $0.91 level, which stands out as a strong confluence zone. This region is supported by the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement, previous structural demand, and its alignment with the final leg of the correction. These factors make it a high-probability zone for a potential final liquidity sweep before the market attempts a broader bullish expansion. Reclaim Of $1.65 Could Confirm Structural Shift EGRAG CRYPTO went on to reveal that the first clear macro signal of a bullish shift lies at the $1.65 level. A strong and sustained reclaim of this level on the weekly timeframe would be significant, as it would break the ongoing descending corrective structure and signal that the triple bottom formation is nearing completion. Related Reading: XRP Price Turns Stronger — Breakout Momentum Building Fast Once this structural barrier is broken, the chart begins to open up for the next phase of macro expansion. At that stage, upside targets would start aligning with higher Fibonacci extension levels, while fitting within the broader cycle structure that typically follows a completed accumulation pattern. In simple terms, the setup provides a clear roadmap for what to watch next. The $0.91 region represents a possible final bottom zone, $1.65 acts as the first major confirmation of strength, and a confirmed break of the descending structure would mark the transition into a new expansion phase.

XRP may be approaching another pivotal moment as its long-term cycle pattern continues to repeat. Historically, strong expansion phases have been followed by extended corrections before the market eventually builds momentum for the next major move. With price now nearing key structural support and technical confluence zones, analysts suggest the current consolidation could represent the groundwork for a potential expansion phase ahead. XRP Continues To Respect Long-Term Rising Trendline According to crypto analyst Egrag Crypto, XRP has continued to respect a long-term ascending trendline since its major breakout in 2017. Throughout this period, each powerful expansion phase has been followed by a descending corrective move, forming a repeating cycle within the broader market structure. Related Reading: XRP Slingshot Setup Builds As Market Enters Potential Bottoming Phase The analyst noted that this pattern has played out multiple times over the years, reinforcing the reliability of XRP’s long-term technical behavior. As the current corrective phase progresses, price action is now approaching an important confluence area where several technical factors are beginning to align. Egrag pointed out that the most significant bottoming region currently sits between $0.95 and $0.80. This zone stands out as a key area where the market could stabilize if the broader structure continues to follow its historical rhythm. The importance of this region stems from the convergence of multiple technical elements. These include the compression of the 21 EMA, 50 EMA, and 100 EMA, the support of the long-term ascending trendline, and a historically significant liquidity zone. When several structural indicators align in this way, it often creates conditions where macro market bottoms begin to form. Market May Be Undergoing A Time-Based Reset Revealing what may come next, Egrag Crypto explained that the current XRP structure appears to be undergoing not only a price correction but also a time-based reset. According to the analyst, this suggests the market may still require an extended period of consolidation before the next major move begins. Related Reading: XRP Bollinger Bands Are Squeezing—Volatility Incoming? Such a phase could involve additional grinding price action, continued compression, and periods of frustration for traders as the market stabilizes. If XRP continues to follow its historical cycle pattern, Egrag believes the bottoming process could gradually unfold and complete around the Q2–Q3 period of 2026. Looking ahead, the next expansion phase would likely begin only after XRP starts reclaiming key structural levels. The first important step would be a recovery above the 21 EMA, followed by a decisive break of the descending corrective structure that has been guiding the recent downtrend. Beyond that, the analyst highlighted $2.20 as a critical level where momentum could begin to accelerate again. With trendline support, EMA confluence, and a potential time reset aligning with a developing bottoming structure, Egrag suggests that the next major expansion phase may be a matter of time if these conditions hold.

XRP may be approaching a critical turning point as technical indicators begin to signal the early stages of a potential bottoming phase. After an extended pullback and cooling momentum, analysts are pointing to growing price compression and historically oversold conditions that could precede a major move. If market structure holds and demand gradually returns, the developing slingshot setup could position XRP for a strong recovery in the coming months. Monthly Chart Signals High-Timeframe Reset, Not Collapse XRP is currently trading near the $1.35 level, a price zone that many market participants interpret as a sign of weakness. However, crypto analyst Diana suggests the situation may not be as bearish as it appears. According to her, the monthly chart shows what looks more like a high-timeframe reset following a major rally rather than a market collapse. Related Reading: XRP Price Sets Stage for Comeback — Recovery Wave Incoming? From a broader perspective, the overall trend structure still appears constructive. The $1.30–$1.35 region is acting as a key support zone where price has begun to stabilize. Although momentum has cooled, selling pressure appears to be gradually losing strength, and the current compression phase could eventually lead to a decisive breakout or breakdown. Diana also pointed out that many traders focus heavily on XRP’s large total supply and assume it cannot move significantly. However, the amount of XRP actively available for trading may be far tighter than widely believed. A considerable portion of the supply remains locked, stored off exchanges, or held by long-term investors who are not eager to sell, meaning that a surge in demand could push prices higher quickly. If XRP holds this support zone and reclaim higher resistance levels, the market could begin targeting a move back toward $3, with a stronger cycle extension potentially opening the door to the $5–$8.50 range. On the other hand, a decisive breakdown below this support area could signal the need for a deeper reset before any larger bullish continuation develops. XRP Weekly RSI Enters Historic Oversold Territory Crypto analyst EGRAG CRYPTO recently highlighted that XRP’s weekly RSI is now entering what could be the most oversold region in the asset’s history. According to the analyst, this zone has historically appeared near major turning points, making it an area that many traders and long-term investors are watching closely. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts 1,500% XRP Price Increase To $15 If This Is A Wave 2 These instances occurred in 2014, 2015, 2018, 2020, and 2022. Each time the indicator reached these extreme levels, the market was approaching a major macro low before eventually shifting direction. The analyst noted that entering this oversold zone does not necessarily mean the exact bottom will form immediately. Instead, it often signals that the market is moving into the bottoming phase, which resembles a final liquidity sweep, sideways accumulation before a gradual recovery begins. Thus, EGRAG explained that many experienced investors prefer accumulating during such conditions rather than perfectly timing the absolute bottom. With XRP’s weekly RSI now approaching this historically significant level once again, the key question is whether the current moment represents a risky entry point or a potential long-term accumulation opportunity.

Crypto analyst Luke has drawn attention to an XRP bull flag breakout, which could send the price to $11, which would mark a new all-time high (ATH) for the altcoin. This comes as the altcoin faces further downside amid the U.S.-Iran war, which threatens to drag on for a long time. XRP Eyes Rally To $11 Amid Bull Flag Breakout In an X post, Luke stated that a bull flag breakout is forming on the XRP weekly chart, with the target being $11. The analyst noted that this is a textbook bull flag after the 8-month consolidation. A pole height measured move points to a rally to exactly $11 while the altcoin could reach $11.20 based on the 1.618 Fib extension. Related Reading: XRP Price Ladder Shows What Conditions Are Needed For $18, $100, And $500 An XRP rally to $11 from the current price represents an upside of almost 700%. Luke indicated that such a rally is possible, with institutions also accumulating, a development that shows a “parabolic leg” is incoming. However, it is worth noting that the XRP ETFs have seen daily net outflows in the last two days as tensions between the U.S. and Iran intensify. SoSoValue data shows that the funds recorded outflows of $6.15 million and $16.62 million on March 5 and 6, respectively. As a result, the net assets of these XRP ETFs have dropped below $1 billion. The altcoin, alongside the broader crypto market, is currently facing downside pressure, with the U.S.-Iran tensions pushing oil prices to multi-year highs. Crypto analyst CasiTrades predicted that XRP could drop to as low as $0.87, as it remains below the $1.67 resistance level. Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto also stated that XRP could drop to as low as $0.85 after facing rejection at the $1.55 level. Insight Into the Current Price Action In an X post, crypto analyst JB stated that all previous wicks, including the one on October 10, have been filled down into the demand zone. The analyst opined that there isn’t much additional downside fuel left if XRP is still in a higher timeframe (HTF) bullish environment. JB also mentioned that the first attempt to reclaim $1.61 failed, so a retest of the $1.25 and $1 level are now back on the table. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts 1,500% XRP Price Increase To $15 If This Is A Wave 2 For an invalidation of this bearish structure, XRP needs to reclaim $1.61 and break the diagonal resistance. JB noted that this would significantly increase the odds of resuming the broader uptrend after about 15 months of correction. “The current area offers one of the strongest R:R setups for HTF spot longs, with invalidation below the gray demand zone,” the analyst added. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.36, down over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com
Crypto pundit Bird has explained why an XRP price target of $100 is not “insane” when one understands what the XRP Ledger (XRPL) can do. He highlighted how the network could dominate tokenization and on-chain settlement, causing trillions of dollars to flow through the XRPL. Why An XRP Price Target Of $100 Is Not “Insane” In an X post, Bird indicated that an XRP price rally to $100 could happen due to the XRP Ledger’s capabilities and the network’s potential to dominate several crypto sectors. He noted that the XRPL can tokenize real-world assets, including asset classes worth trillions of dollars. These include treasury bonds, land, gold, silver, and several global currencies. He added that this is just the surface, as other RWAs will also be tokenized on the network. Related Reading: XRP Price Gears Up For A Major 680% Move Against Bitcoin To Reach $10 Furthermore, Bird also alluded to liquidity pools, locked yield mechanisms, on-chain settlement, and the broader tokenization trend as factors that could spark the XRP price rally to $100. The pundit added that once these other crypto sectors are factored in, market participants can begin to see what is possible in the hundreds of trillions of dollars. The pundit also noted that when real-world value moves on-chain, then networks that handle liquidity efficiently win, which is where the XRP Ledger comes in. “That’s the bigger picture most people are missing,” he added. It is worth noting that the tokenized value on the network continues to climb. RWA.xyz data shows that the XRP Ledger currently ranks 6th in terms of tokenized value on the network, which stands at $2 billion. This marks a positive for the XRP price, as the tokenization trend could boost XRP’s utility, thereby increasing demand. Meanwhile, like Bird, crypto pundit Austin also mentioned that a $100 target for XRP is not “crazy.” XRP Is Eyeing A Bullish Reversal In an X post, crypto analyst Egrag Crypto revealed that the XRP price is pushing above the 200 EMA, which could lead to a bullish reversal. The analyst stated that if XRP gets a weekly close above the 200 EMA and $1.55, then the short-term strength increases and momentum shifts. However, if the price remains inside the descending channel, then the broader structure remains corrective. Related Reading: Why XRP Is Being Hailed As The Top Trade Over Bitcoin And Ethereum For now, the key levels to watch for the XRP price are the $1.55 reclaim, which signals short-term strength, and the $2.20 weekly close, which would signal a bullish expansion. On the other hand, a rejection below $1.55 could lead to a sweep toward $1.26, putting the macro supports at between $0.95 and $0.85 on the cards. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading just around $1.41, up over 4% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP is approaching a pivotal technical moment as it pushes against the 200 EMA while holding firm at the base of a descending channel. With support still intact and momentum building near resistance, the chart is compressing into a potential breakout setup. A confirmed move above the EMA could shift short-term sentiment, while failure would keep the broader corrective structure in play. XRP Tests The 200 EMA Barrier According to technical analyst Egrag Crypto, XRP is currently attempting a significant breakthrough as it pushes against the 200 EMA. This move has the community questioning if the bulls finally have enough momentum to sustain the climb. While the immediate price action is encouraging, the next few days are critical for determining whether this is a genuine trend shift or merely a temporary spike. Related Reading: XRP Price Begins Consolidation, Breakout Pressure Gradually Builds The primary condition for a bullish transition is a weekly candle close above the 200 EMA and the $1.55 horizontal resistance. Achieving this would signal a surge in short-term strength and a meaningful shift in market momentum. Despite this push, XRP remains confined within a long-term descending channel, suggesting the broader macro structure is still technically corrective. Egrag highlights two major upside targets for those looking for a “bullish expansion.” First, the $1.55 level must be reclaimed and held to solidify current strength. If successful, the next major milestone is a weekly close above $2.20, which would likely trigger a more aggressive upward move. A rejection at or below the $1.55 mark would likely result in a liquidity sweep toward the $1.26 level. If the selling pressure intensifies from there, the downside risk extends much further, with potential targets sitting in the $0.95–$0.85 range. Channel Floor Holding — Buyers Step In In a recent market update, analyst Jonathan Carter revealed that XRP’s descending channel support is holding remarkably strong. The altcoin is currently trading near the lower boundary of this multi-month descending channel on the daily chart, a zone that has historically acted as a springboard for price recoveries. Related Reading: XRP Triangle Could Point To Support Between $0.60 And $0.90 The focus for traders now shifts to a confirmed bounce from this support level. If the daily chart can print a strong reversal candle, it would validate the channel’s integrity and signal the start of a new upward leg. Should the bulls successfully ignite this bounce, Carter has outlined a series of ambitious price targets. The initial recovery would likely target $1.50 and $1.80, with a successful breach of those levels opening the door for a climb toward $2.35 and $2.70. In a full bullish extension, the analysis points to macro targets at $3.10 and $3.55. Featured image from Pixabay, chart from Tradingview.com
Crypto analyst Javon Marks has predicted that the XRP price could rally 680% against Bitcoin, reaching $10 in the process. The analyst also indicated that the altcoin could rally higher, reaching the $15 target. XRP Price Eyes 680% Rally Against Bitcoin In an X post, Javon Marks stated that the XRP price against Bitcoin looks to be setting up for an over 680% run, which could spark a larger rally for the altcoin. He noted that this could lead to a move to the $10 price point for XRP. The analyst added that this price rally aligns with the current measured move target, which is above $15. Related Reading: Why XRP Is Being Hailed As The Top Trade Over Bitcoin And Ethereum An XRP price rally to as high as $15 would mark new all-time highs (ATHs) for the altcoin. Marks had, in an earlier analysis, alluded to how XRP outran Bitcoin by over 240%, when it rose by over 570%. As such, the analyst is confident that the altcoin could again significantly outperform the leading crypto. His accompanying chart showed that the XRP price could record this 680% rally against Bitcoin next year, a period which could mark a new bull market cycle for the crypto market. It is worth noting that XRP was one of the standout performers at the start of the year, outperforming Bitcoin and other major crypto assets, which led to CNBC describing it as the trade of the year. At the moment, the XRP price is facing downside pressure alongside Bitcoin and the broader crypto market due to the ongoing war between the U.S. and Iran. XRP has typically mirrored BTC’s price action during this period, declining when Bitcoin does and rallying when it does. XRP’s Price Action Is Still Corrective In an X post, crypto analyst Egrag crypto stated that the XRP price is still inside a descending channel and that momentum is currently corrective, not impulsive. As long as the altcoin remains within this channel, the analyst declared that XRP is in a distribution phase rather than a breakout. Related Reading: XRP Mirrors The Russell 2000, What This Means And Why It’s Important For the XRP price to flip bullish, Egrag Crypto stated that the first trigger will be $1.55, with a major invalidation of the bearish structure a weekly close above $2.20. A rally to this level could trigger a bullish continuation, opening the door to a rally to between $2.70 and $3.60, and then a new ATH will be on the cards. For the bearish scenario, Egrag Crypto predicted that the XRP price could drop to the $0.95 to $0.85 macro support if the altcoin faces rejection below the $1.55 level. He stated that there is a higher probability of the altcoin facing a deeper sweep to the downside than an early breakout reclaim. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.35, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP investors are closely monitoring market signals as the cryptocurrency navigates turbulent trading conditions and choppy price action. A recent analysis by market analyst Egrag Crypto identifies a critical exit candle, which could signal the next major step for XRP holders. As volatility increases and downside risks intensify, traders are debating whether to hold, sell, or buy more assets. Analyst Identifies XRP Investors’ Next Exit Candle Egrag Crypto shared a cautious chart analysis for XRP on X this week, highlighting the importance of understanding upcoming price movements if the market is indeed in a bearish phase. He warned that if traders truly believed XRP could decline another 50-60%, then the pump after this price crash should be considered the traders’ next exit candle. Related Reading: XRP Price Falls Below $1.6: You Won’t Believe What Institutions Are Doing Amid The Crash Although he highlighted an exit pump for investors, Egrag Crypto stated that he will not sell his XRP and intends to hold it even if prices fall below $1. He emphasized that, unless XRP breaks below the blue support channel in the chart, his strategy remains long-term, ignoring the market noise. The analyst further noted that XRP’s market structure could soon challenge bearish sentiment, potentially forcing many traders to exit in panic. He said that external factors, such as regulatory changes in the United States (US), could pose significant risks for investors. In particular, Egrag Crypto highlighted the possibility of US President Donald Trump appointing Kevin Warsh as new FED chair, replacing former chairman Jay Clayton. The crypto expert said that if this happens, things could get even worse in the market, potentially accelerating downside pressure. Despite the warnings of a bearish outlook for XRP, Egrag Crypto emphasized that many investors will follow their own strategies. He said that some will continue to hold XRP even if it goes back to $0.5, marking a more than 83% decline from its price high above $3 earlier last year. He also stated that other investors might see the decline as an opportunity to buy and accumulate more tokens, ahead of any future price surges. Market Discipline and Emotional Strategy Remain Critical At the start of his post, Egrag Crypto stressed that his XRP chart analysis is meant to guide investors facing panic, confusion, or emotional overload due to recent market downturns and sudden price crashes. He compared being a crypto investor and trader to competitive sports like basketball or football, describing it as a game that requires skills, preparation, and patience to succeed. Related Reading: Pundit Says XRP Price Is Not A ‘Crypto’ Question, But A Systemically Important Liquidity Asset Since the market runs 24/7, Egrag Crypto asserts that managing both emotional and financial resources is essential.

He also highlighted the importance of strategy and discipline when investing or trading. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com
Crypto pundit X Finance Bull has highlighted how institutions are accumulating XRP amid the crypto market crash. His comment comes amid the XRP price drop below the psychological $1.6 level, which has further sparked bearish sentiments among retail investors. Institutions Are Still Accumulating Amid XRP Price Crash In an X post, X Finance Bull noted that while retail investors are panicking over the XRP price crash, institutional investors continue to accumulate the Ripple-linked token. The crypto pundit pointed to inflows into XRP ETFs, while Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs continue to see outflows. Based on this, he stated that the rotation is starting, with institutional investors moving from BTC and ETH to XRP. Related Reading: XRP Price At $10,000 Is Not A Prophecy: Analyst Shares Simple Framework That Points Higher SoSoValue data show that Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs recorded outflows of $1.61 billion and $353 million, respectively, on January 30. Meanwhile, the XRP ETFs recorded a net inflow of $15.6 million. X Finance Bull noted that these inflows might be small now, but that direction matters. He further remarked that institutions don’t chase hype in choppy markets but rather position for fundamentals. The crypto pundit also noted that inflows into XRP ETFs, while Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs are bleeding, aren’t random. He highlighted fundamentals that are bullish for the XRP price despite the current market crash. This includes the token’s cross-border payments utility, which he noted solves a “Quadrillion-dollar problem.” He added that regulatory clarity is coming and that infrastructure is already in place. X Finance Bull expects the XRP price to be among the first to recover when the market rebounds, noting that capital flows to utility. He added that the smart money is already front-running that shift. The crypto pundit also believes that those investing in XRP now are still early, given that the XRP ETFs have just recorded $1.18 billion cumulative inflows in three months. Two Potential Paths For The Altcoin At The Moment Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has highlighted two paths for the XRP price following its drop below $1.60. He stated that the first path is a double liquidity grab, whereby a relief bounce happens from here, followed by a second liquidity sweep and then an expansion. His accompanying chart showed that the second liquidity sweep could happen around $1.3. Meanwhile, the second path of the XRP price is a direct expansion, which aligns with the cycle fractal. Egrag Crypto stated that if history rhymes, the altcoin could record a 340% gain, similar to the 2021 bull cycle, or a larger 1,600% gain, similar to the 2017 bull cycle. A 340% surge and a 1,600% surge would put XRP at $7 and $27, respectively.

According to a recent technical analysis by market expert Egrag Crypto, XRP has formed a “Super Guppy Compression” against Bitcoin, signaling the potential for a major structural shift. The analyst has revealed what could come next for the XRP/BTC pair following this development, indicating a higher probability of a bullish breakout within the next few months. XRP Bitcoin Pair Forms Super Guppy Compression In his X post, Egrag Crypto provided a detailed breakdown of the XRP/BTC price structure and the recent patterns emerging within its chart. He suggested that the trading pair recently entered a transition phase after a multi-year decline, with price action tightening as the market moved through a period of compression. Related Reading: What the Triple-Tap At $1.80 Means For The XRP Price Egrag Crypto revealed that XRP/BTC has completed a Super Guppy Compression pattern, which shows full ribbon compression across both short- and long-term Moving Averages (MA). According to the analyst, this compression signals an upcoming volatility expansion, indicates exhausted selling pressure, and highlights a clear transition phase in the market. Color dynamics within the Guppy system on the chart also suggest a shift in market behavior. Egrag Crypto notes that the short-term Moving Averages, or “ribbons” as he calls them, are turning green, signaling early bullish momentum. At the same time, long-term ribbons remain red but are flattening, indicating that the downward trend on XRP/BTC is easing. These developments also show that the market has exited its bearish phase; however, a clear uptrend has yet to emerge, leaving the trading pair in a base-building stage. From a price-structure perspective, Egrag Crypto notes that XRP/BTC is forming a bullish rectangular pattern. The analyst revealed that the trading pair had repeatedly bounced off support while facing rejection at resistance, indicating that supply is being absorbed rather than aggressively sold off. According to him, this behavior aligns with textbook reaccumulation patterns observed after extended downtrends, signaling a potential upward move ahead. Egrag Crypto has shared key targets for where he believes XRP/BTC could go next, depending on its current market structure. He noted that the structure matters more than the underlying emotion, suggesting that although the market may seem quiet, it is actively positioning for a decisive move. Analyst Sets Bullish And Bearish Targets For XRP/BTC Continuing his analysis, Egrag Crypto predicted that over the next three to six months, the XRP/BTC price has a 60-70% chance of a bullish breakout. He added that there is also a 30-40% possibility of an extended consolidation, but only if the market structure breaks—a scenario he considers unlikely. Related Reading: Analyst Says XRP Price Just Entered Neutral State – What This Means Looking at the chart, the analyst has identified two key upside targets and one downside scenario. If XRP/BTC crosses the red resistance line at approximately $0.0000338, Egrag Crypto predicts an initial surge to a “conservative” target of $0.000091, followed by a rise to a “normal” target of $0.00014. Conversely, if a structure break occurs, XRP/BTC could plunge from $0.0000193 to $0.00000668. Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com
Crypto analyst Dom has commented on the current XRP price action, revealing what the triple tap at $1.80 means for the altcoin. This comes as XRP sheds most of its gains from the start of the year amid the recent crypto market crash. XRP Price Reaches Major Support With Triple Tap At $1.80 In an X post, Dom stated that there is a triple tap in the $1.80 zone, which is the last possible expression of a bottoming structure for the XRP price. The analyst warned that any further moves to the downside are likely to trigger a breakdown for the altcoin. He added that regaining $2.05 is the goal for bulls to put the chart back in a “safe zone.” Related Reading: XRP Bullish Divergence Shows The Next Direction That Price Is Headed In This analyst comes amid the XRP price crash below the psychological $2 level. The altcoin has crashed alongside the broader crypto market, losing most of its yearly gains in the process. This comes on the back of the latest Trump tariffs on eight European nations, which have sparked bearish sentiment in the market. Commenting on the 30% rally for the XRP price earlier in the month, Dom reiterated that it was a weak move. He noted that the order flow analysis showed no strong buyer support and that the push was possible due to low liquidity. On-chain analytics platform Glassnode also recently commented on the current price action, noting that the current market structure for XRP closely resembles that of February 2022. Glassnode stated that investors active over the 1-week to 1-month window are now accumulating below the cost basis of the 6-month to 12-month cohort. They added that as this structure persists, psychological pressure on top buyers continues to build over time. XRP’s Structure Still Intact In an X post, crypto analyst Egrag Crypto stated that the XRP price structure remains intact, with the upper resistance at between $3.40 and $3.60. Meanwhile, the lower support is between $1.85 and $1.95, and the price is currently near the range lows. The analyst also noted that the 21 EMA is sloping down and acting as resistance, with the price still below it, suggesting weak short-term momentum. Related Reading: XRP Price Could Surge Another 30% If This Trend Is Confirmed As for what could happen next, Egrag Crypto predicted a liquidity sweep rather than a confirmed breakdown in the XRP price. He explained that a wick below $1.85 is a normal liquidity behavior within a range. However, a weekly close below this level could signal structural failure and increase cycle risk. Until that happens, Egrag Crypto noted that the XRP price is still ranging, holding structure, not broken, and not in macro failure. He added that his stance remains unchanged as he is still bullish and holding as long as the structure remains valid. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.90, down over 3% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Peakpx, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP is tightening up at a critical breakout level, with price action suggesting the market is coiling for its next decisive move. While short-term volatility has cooled, the broader structure remains constructive, pointing to a potential expansion phase as compression builds near key resistance. XRP Compresses Into A Critical $2.30–$2.40 Decision Zone According to a latest update from Egrag Crypto, the XRP 3-day chart continues to flash strong bullish signals despite recent consolidation. Price action remains constructive, with XRP compressing inside a descending channel as it approaches a crucial decision zone between $2.30 and $2.40. Related Reading: XRP Price Finds Its Footing at Support, Bulls Test Their Strength From a structural standpoint, several technical elements point to underlying strength. The 50-period EMA has begun to flatten, suggesting that selling pressure is gradually easing. At the same time, the 200-period EMA continues to trend higher, reinforcing the idea that the broader, macro trend remains bullish. Furthermore, XRP is holding above the EMA cluster, indicating that the market structure has not yet broken down. Notably, the upper boundary of the descending channel aligns closely with the former $2.30 breakout level, adding technical significance to this zone. From here, the implications are clear. A clean and decisive 3-day close above $2.40 would likely confirm a breakout from compression, opening the door for continuation toward the $2.70 region, with $3.13 emerging as a higher upside objective. On the other hand, rejection at resistance would likely keep XRP trading in a range. However, as long as the price remains above the $2.00 area, the overall bullish structure stays intact. This is not a breakdown scenario; rather, it reflects tightening price action that often precedes a strong expansion. Triple Tap Hits Range Highs, Reaching A Key Inflection Point In a recent market update, CrediBULL Crypto noted that XRP has now completed its triple-tap move, successfully reaching the upper boundary of its range. With liquidity at the range highs already taken, the market now stands at a clear crossroads, presenting two distinct paths for price action going forward. Related Reading: Why XRP Is Gearing Up For A Massive Week The first scenario frames the recent move as nothing more than a relief bounce, sweeping liquidity at the highs before resuming its local downtrend, within the higher-timeframe uptrend. If this plays out, price could move lower again, potentially dropping below the $1.77 level. In the alternative scenario, the triple-tap pattern is interpreted as the formation of a solid base of structural demand. Under this view, pullbacks are likely to be met with buying interest, with the $1.77 lows acting as a support zone rather than a level to be broken. Weighing the broader context, particularly Bitcoin’s position and overall market conditions, CrediBULL leans toward the second outcome. That bias favors looking for long opportunities, with the expectation that XRP will continue to expand higher and eventually target untapped levels above the current range.

XRP is trading at around $2.06 on January 13, 2026, leaving its price action a full step below the zone that capped its last rally that ended with a high of $3.65 in July 2025. However, predictions that point to XRP reclaiming that peak and then pushing into new highs above $3.8, have been on the front page of bank research notes and trader-led chart projections. Notably, various technical analyses have suggested that XRP is programmed to return back into the upper-$3s and into new price territories this year. Standard Chartered’s XRP Target Clears $3.8 XRP’s all-time high price now looks out of reach, especially considering the cryptocurrency is now struggling to leave $2 behind. At the time of writing, XRP has dropped by about 44% from its July 2025 peak of $3.65, but institutional buys from Spot XRP ETFs are still giving glimmers of hope. Related Reading: XRP Back At The Edge: Will Breaking $2 Barrier Rewrite Its History? One of the most recently notable institutional-style projections from XRP comes from Standard Chartered’s digital assets research, which lays out a multi-year path that sees XRP breaking well above the $3.8 threshold. According to analysts at the bank, XRP is slated to reach as high as $8 by the end of 2026, a level that comfortably eclipses the previous peak and implies roughly 300% upside from current levels if certain conditions hold. Interestingly, this outlook came from Geoffrey Kendrick, Standard Chartered’s Global Head of Digital Assets Research. The prediction was made based on an outlook of continued institutional adoption and strong inflows into XRP-based spot ETFs. Technical Outlooks As Ripple Heads Into A Consequential 2026 Recent technical commentary from multiple analysts has converged on a bullish bias for XRP. For instance, XRP analyst EGRAG CRYPTO pointed out a developing breakout retest structure on the monthly candlestick timeframe. According to the analyst, historical probabilities favor upside as long as XRP holds above the $1.60 to $1.40 range on higher timeframes, with long-term channel projections placing the XRP price as high as $22. For a shorter-term perspective, Crypto Feras described XRP’s recent break above $2 as a bullish reversal signal. His analysis points to $2.67 and $3.01 as the next resistance levels, areas that could open the path toward a full retest of the prior peak near $3.8 if cleared. Adding to this, ChartNerd noted that XRP’s long-term upside fractal structure is still valid despite the recent XRP price correction. Related Reading: Analyst Updates XRP Price Prediction: Why $16 Is Still On The Table These price projections are being viewed more favorably against the backdrop of Ripple’s momentum heading into the year. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse recently pointed to strong progress in 2025 with examples of major acquisitions of Ripple Prime and GTreasury and a growing global licensing footprint. Now that Ripple is positioning itself for what its leadership has described as a consequential 2026, the combination of technical outlooks and company fundamentals has strengthened the narrative that XRP could be approaching a move to new all-time highs.

Ethereum continues to trade within a prolonged accumulation phase, signaling that the market may be approaching a pivotal transition. As ETH/BTC firmly defends long-term cycle support, the structure points to quiet strength building beneath the surface, often a precursor to rotation and a decisive next move. Ethereum’s Inverted Monthly Chart Signals Late-Stage Accumulation EGRAG CRYPTO made a post, showing that Ethereum’s inverted monthly chart continues to reflect a familiar cyclical pattern, though with notable evolution. Each market cycle follows a similar rhythm, but as the asset matures, volatility compresses, and price behavior becomes more controlled. Related Reading: Ethereum’s Q1 Outlook: Analyst Shares Historical Setup As Price Nears Key Resistance In the first cycle, Ethereum experienced a brief accumulation phase followed by a sharp and violent drop. The second cycle extended the accumulation period, resulting in a more gradual decline. Meanwhile, in the third and current cycle, accumulation has lasted significantly longer, suggesting that any corrective phase should be comparatively shallow. It is important to note that the chart is inverted, meaning what appears as a drop on this view actually represents a breakout on the standard price chart. In this context, the current structure suggests that accumulation is nearing completion, and the market may be approaching its next decisive move. This setup points to a less explosive move compared to earlier cycles, but more controlled. From a price roadmap perspective, initial resistance is projected between $3,800 and $4,500. A successful flip of that zone into support could open the door toward the $6,000 to $7,500 region. The primary risk scenario remains a deeper retest toward the $1,800 to $2,200 range before a broader upside continuation. Why ETH/BTC Is A Key Market Barometer Right Now In a recent post on ETH/BTC, CyrilXBT emphasized that this remains one of the most important charts to monitor. Ethereum continues to defend the 2018 cycle support, consistently printing higher lows while price action tightens just below key resistance levels. This kind of compression often signals that the market is preparing for a larger move rather than breaking down. Related Reading: Here’s The Ethereum Descending Triangle Structure That Threatens A Crash Below $2,800 Importantly, there is no sign of panic or structural damage. Sellers have failed to force a decisive breakdown, while buyers continue to step in at higher levels, reinforcing the strength of the underlying support. The longer this base holds, the more meaningful the eventual breakout or rotation becomes. At this stage of the cycle, Ethereum does not need to outperform aggressively. Simply holding its relative value is usually enough to signal the early stages of capital rotation. Historically, sustained stability on the ETH/BTC pair tends to precede periods where Ethereum begins to take the lead once momentum fully returns.

Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has again predicted that the XRP price could reach $27. This time around, he outlined the technical formation that could spark a parabolic surge for the altcoin as it eyes the $27 target. How The XRP Price Could Reach $27 In an X post, Egrag Crypto stated that the Linear Regression targets for the XRP price are $3.4, $10, and $27. He further explained that, as of this month, these three major price levels stand out based on the long-term Logarithmic Linear Regression Channel. The analyst then touched on each price target and how XRP could reach there. Related Reading: XRP Price Needs To Hold This Macro Support For Hope Of Revival Egrag Crypto described the $3.40 target for the XRP price as the mean reversion. He stated that a retest and rejection from $3.40 would be one of the strongest bearish TA signals for the altcoin. The analyst further remarked that this target is based solely on chart structure, not fundamentals. He added that a close above this level means that XRP is officially back in macro bullish territory. Furthermore, the analyst stated that the $10 target for the XRP price is the upper midline. He explained that this is where full bull expansion normally accelerates and that the target rises with time because this channel is logarithmic. Lastly, Egrag Crypto highlighted $27 as the top of the channel. He noted that multiple long-term confluences point to this target for the altcoin. Notably, this XRP price prediction comes amid several bullish fundamentals for the altcoin. Ripple was just granted a conditional approval for its national trust bank charter, which could boost XRP’s adoption. XRP also just expanded to Solana with Hex Trust’s launch of its wrapped XRP token for DeFi purposes. Meanwhile, Swiss bank AMINA Bank has integrated Ripple payments, which utilize XRP. The Major Levels To Watch Haven’t Changed Crypto analyst CasiTrades stated that the major levels for the XRP price haven’t changed. The macro supports are $2.03 and $1.64. On the other hand, the macro resistance is $2.41, which a break above would confirm a bullish scenario for the altcoin. The analyst remarked that if a break above $2.41 happens, the next measured targets stand around $2.75 and $2.90. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts XRP Price Will Rise To $14 By Frontrunning Bitcoin By Over 600% However, if the XRP price breaks below the macro support at $2.03, CasiTrades predicts that the altcoin could fall below $1.97 and decline towards the $1.64 major support. She reiterated that there is no official confirmation yet on the next potential move for XRP. Interestingly, the world’s largest IQ holder, YoungHoon Kim, stated that XRP has a strong possibility of reaching a new ATH by the end of this year. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.01, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com
A crypto market analyst has compared XRP to NVIDIA, an American technology company with one of the biggest tech success stories in history. The analyst implied that buying XRP today could mirror the opportunity investors had when purchasing NVIDIA shares in 2000 at just $0.35. The comparison emphasizes the long-term potential of the XRP price and highlights the importance of HODLing. XRP Today Shows Growth Potential Like NVIDIA In 2000 A leading market expert, Egrag Crypto, has drawn a striking parallel between the current XRP price and the early days of NVIDIA. He suggested that buying XRP now could be akin to purchasing NVIDIA shares at just $0.35, as recorded in 2000. At the time of writing, the shares are priced around $180, representing a staggering 51,329% increase from over two decades ago. Related Reading: Brace For Impact: XRP Price Has Formed A Bullish Cross On Its Weekly Stochastic RSI Egrag Crypto points out that a $10,000 investment in NVIDIA at $0.35 per share in 2000 would have secured roughly 28,571 shares. At today’s prices, those shares would be worth over $5,142,780, demonstrating an investment strategy focused more on maintaining conviction and patience than timing or predicting the market perfectly. Beyond this, the analyst’s comparison illustrates the power of investing long-term in disruptive technologies, showing how early adoption and willingness to hold through volatility can result in life-changing gains. Applying this perspective to XRP, Egrag Crypto highlighted that the cryptocurrency has surged from $0.006 to $3.65 over the past 10 years. By comparing the altcoin to NVIDIA shares, he suggests the cryptocurrency could have similar potential for transformative, explosive growth. As a result, he implied that the current XRP price of $2.2 may present a potential entry point for investors willing to commit to a disciplined long-term strategy. Much like NVIDIA in its early days around 2000, XRP is still in the initial stages of its growth trajectory. The cryptocurrency recently emerged from a prolonged legal battle with the US SEC that had constrained its development and price appreciation for nearly 7 years. With increasing utility and ongoing ecosystem developments, XRP is well-positioned to grow over time. While its price has declined roughly 20% this year, according to CoinMarketCap, analysts remain optimistic about its long-term outlook. XRP On-Chain Activity Hits Record Levels On the technical front, XRP has experienced a remarkable surge in on-chain activity, signaling heightened engagement across the network. Data from CryptoQuant shows that on December 2, the velocity metric for the XRP Ledger (XRPL) spiked to a yearly high of $0.0324. Related Reading: Warning: XRP Price Is Forming A Death Cross That Previously Led To A 15% Crash Analysts from CryptoQuant have revealed that the rise in circulation velocity suggests that XRP is being actively traded rather than sitting idle in cold wallets. The increase points to high liquidity and significant participation from whales who appear to be moving large amounts of tokens. Additionally, such activity indicates that the XRP network is experiencing unprecedented levels of engagement, with more coins changing hands in a short time than the market has seen so far in 2025.

Crypto analyst Dom has provided an update on what could spark the next XRP price surge. He highlighted an important level that the altcoin needs to reclaim for it to rally to $2.50, which would mark a new high since the October 10 liquidation event. XRP Price Must Reclaim This Level To Trigger Another Surge In an X post, Dom stated that the XRP price needs to regain the monthly rVWAP around $2.22, as that would be the shift for a rally towards $2.50. This came as the analyst revealed that an inverse of the XRP chart over the last six weeks shows a perfect 3-drive pattern, which is a very accurate reversal setup in crypto. Related Reading: Analyst Says This Needs To Happen For The XRP Price To Rally Again Dom also stated a higher low has finally formed, which can hint at the first sign of a trend change developing. He added that the order books are clear and that there was no better time for this trend to shift for the XRP price. If the setup fails, the analyst remarked that acceptance below $2 is next and that the end-of-year price action could turn ugly. Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto also recently highlighted key levels to watch for the XRP price. He stated that a close above $2.60, which is above the Fib 0.5, is bullish, but doesn’t mean that the altcoin is fully out of the woods. Furthermore, he claimed that a close above $3.40, which is above Fib 0.888, is super bullish and would mean that the altcoin is back in a bull market. On the other hand, a close below the 21 EMA could spell trouble for XRP, according to the analyst. A Breakout To $2.75 Could Be In Play In an X post, crypto analyst Ali Martinez stated that a breakout toward $2.75 could happen if the XRP price breaks above $2.28. His accompanying chart suggested a rally to this $2.75 level could open the door to a sustained rally to the psychological $3 level. Meanwhile, Martinez warned that XRP could drop to as low as $1.2 if it falls below the key support level at $2. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts 10x Rally For XRP Price If THis Trend Repeats Crypto analyst CasiTrades has predicted one final drop for the XRP price before it reaches new highs. She outlined two scenarios for the altcoin after a backtest of the $2.04 level. The analyst stated that a double bottom could form around $1.80, or the altcoin could see a deeper sweep to the $1.64, .618 macro support. However, it is worth mentioning that XRP has successfully broken above the $2.04 level, which could invalidate this setup. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.18, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com
