Crypto analyst Galaxy has drawn similarities between the current XRP price action and the 2017 bull run, when the altcoin recorded significant gains. He predicts the altcoin could soon rally to double digits, mirroring the 2017 rally.  XRP Price To Rally To Double Digits As It Mirrors 2017 Rally In an X post, Galaxy indicated that the XRP price could rally to double digits as it mirrors the 2017 rally. He stated that XRP is almost perfectly following the breakout pattern of 2017 after 6 years of consolidation. The analyst added that the longer the consolidation, the bigger the price move.  Related Reading: XRP Reaching Oversold Levels As Net Flows Turn Negative, What’s Next? His accompanying chart showed that the XRP price could rally to almost $40 on this breakout. The analyst seems convinced that the altcoin could witness such a parabolic move, considering that XRP surged by 61,000% in 280 days in 2017. The chart also showed that the altcoin will likely reach this target sometime next year.  Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has also stated that he expects the XRP price to reach between $27 and $33 in this market cycle. He believes that a repeat of the 2017 historical performance makes these price targets achievable for the altcoin. The analyst has also alluded to factors such as the XRP ETFs and Ripple’s expansion as factors that could drive this price surge.  Meanwhile, crypto veteran Raoul Pal also affirmed that the XRP price has enough room to rally to the upside from its current level. He highlighted a bull flag that had formed for the altcoin, following its consolidation phase after last year’s rally. The veteran expects XRP to witness a bullish continuation after this consolidation phase, possibly rallying to as high as $5. This would mark a new all-time high (ATH) for the token.  The Altcoin In A Bullish Phase Crypto analyst CobraVanguard asserted that the XRP price is in a bullish phase, while highlighting a falling wedge pattern that was forming for the altcoin. He remarked that this pattern indicates the altcoin’s potential to reach $3. However, the analyst warned that this setup could be invalidated if the wedge pattern is broken downwards with the strength of bearish candles.

He predicts that the altcoin could rally to its current all-time high once the B and C waves are completed in this corrective wave. The analyst is also confident that the altcoin can rally to double digits in the long term. He once predicted that the altcoin could reach $18 based on his Elliott Wave Theory analysis.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.38, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

A crypto analyst has outlined a long-term bullish roadmap for the XRP price, forecasting a gradual climb toward staggering all-time highs of $37. While the technical analysis and chart patterns support this optimistic outlook, bearish signals still linger on the horizon, highlighting a critical battleground for control between bulls and bears.  XRP Price Roadmap To $37 Drawing on the historical behavior of the XRP price action, market expert Egrag Crypto has highlighted the significance of the relationship between two key Moving Averages (MA): the 21-week Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the 33-week Simple Moving Average (SMA).  Related Reading: Two Major Fibonacci Levels Put XRP Price At $8.40 And $27 In a technical report shared on X (formerly Twitter), the analyst noted that the interaction between these two MAs has repeatedly provided strong signals during both bullish and bearish market phases. He emphasized that this relationship could either set the stage for XRP to skyrocket toward a final target of $37 in this market cycle or trigger a bearish price breakdown.  According to the analyst’s chart and historical data, every time the 21 EMA crosses above the 33 SMA on the weekly chart, a dramatic price rally for XRP has always followed. Previous instances have seen staggering gains of 520.25% in 2025, 855.36% in 2021, 1,600.63% in 2018, and even as high as 6,505.21% in 2017. These moves were all preceded by the same crossover pattern: the 21 EMA taking a dominant position above the 33 SMA.  Based on this cyclic behavior, Egrag Crypto projects that XRP could once again be poised for a parabolic move upwards. The most conservative bullish targets lie around $5.71 and $9.57, while more aggressive estimates point to $27, with an ultimate extension potentially reaching $37. These price levels have been mapped out by projecting the percentage gains from past bull runs onto the chart structure.  Egrag Crypto has further emphasized that XRP’s bullish setup is being watched closely. Its price hovers around $2.34, signaling a substantial upside if history repeats.  Bears And Bulls Fight For Dominance  Despite Egrag Crypto’s optimistic outlook for the XRP price, the analyst warns that the bears are not out of the picture yet. The same Moving Average crossover logic that signals bullish strength could also serve as a double-edged sword, potentially indicating a powerful bearish reversal.  Related Reading: XRP Price At $10-$20 Only The Beginning, It’s Headed For $1,000 – Analyst Reveals Historically, when the 21 EMA crosses below the 33 SMA (a bearish cross), the XRP price has entered significant downtrends. The past two bearish crosses on May 28 and November 2021 led to steep declines of 87% and 72%, respectively.  Egrag Crypto cautions that a similar bearish crossover could occur, potentially triggering a price drop of nearly 79.54% from XRP’s local top. If this crossover does appear, the market expert has revealed plans to exit a large portion of his XRP position, signaling that the macro top has been reached and a prolonged bear phase is likely to follow.  Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Onchain data shows that over $40 billion worth of XRP has been moved over the last week, which puts the altcoin on the edge. Specifically, these coins were transferred to exchanges, which indicates that XRP is at risk of a massive sell-off.  Over $40 Billion XRP Moved To Exchanges CryptoQuant data shows that over $40 billion has been moved to Binance this past week, with the exchange’s reserves surging during this period. This development is usually bearish as it indicates that investors are looking to offload their coins. This comes as the XRP price surged to as high as $2.6, which explains this wave of profit-taking.  Related Reading: XRP Reaching Oversold Levels As Net Flows Turn Negative, What’s Next? Moreover, crypto analyst Ali Martinez revealed that Bitcoin whales have secured profits, selling over 30,000 BTC this week. As such, XRP whales may be simply mirroring this move. Meanwhile, Bitcoinist reported that XRP is reaching oversold levels as net flows turn negative, with the wave of sell-offs heightening.  This selling pressure comes amid Judge Analisa Torres’ ruling in the Ripple SEC lawsuit, which provides a setback for XRP. The judge denied the parties’ motion for an indicative ruling because the filing was procedurally improper. The ruling also sparked a massive sell-off, with XRP dropping over 4%. XRP risks losing its bullish setup as Martinez revealed that the key support zone is at $2.38, meaning that a drop below this level could lead to a deeper correction. However, a hold above this level could set the altcoin for a rally to new highs as the analyst revealed that there are no major resistance clusters ahead. Crypto analyst CasiTrades had warned that XRP’s failure to hold above the $2.69 resistance could send its price towards $2.30 for a reset.  Altcoin Has Formed A Double Bottom Formation In an X post, crypto analyst Egrag Crypto revealed that XRP has formed a double bottom following the dip to $2.3126. He stated that the altcoin is still bouncing off the red descending trend line, showing resilience. The analyst added that the altcoin is experiencing some micro noise within the range between the Fibonacci 0.888 levels at $2.30 and $2.62.  Related Reading: XRP Price Set To Continue Uptrend As Stochastic RSI Moves Out Of Oversold Zone His accompanying chart showed that the key is for the XRP price to hold above the trendline at $2.3. A bounce from this level could send the altcoin as high as $3.8, near its current all-time high (ATH) of $3.84. Based on its historical performance, Egrag Crypto still expects the altcoin’s price to rally to between $27 and $33 in this market cycle.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.37, down almost 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

The XRP price is once again in the spotlight as a new technical analysis indicates that the cryptocurrency may be on the verge of a significant price explosion to $5.9 and beyond. According to the analyst behind this forecast, XRP’s recent price behavior is not a sign of weakness but rather a period of strategic consolidation that is building momentum for the next major surge.  Consolidation Phase To Fuel XRP Price Explosion  Master Ananda, a crypto analyst on TradingView, released a detailed analysis of XRP on May 15. The analysis highlights the cryptocurrency’s current price action and predicts its next bullish move. Starting with its historical price behavior, the analysis highlights a strong rally that took place in 2024, particularly around November and December, when XRP printed long green candles that indicated strong momentum. Related Reading: Analyst Says XRP Must Hold This Level For Bullish Continuation To $4.2 After reaching a high, XRP entered a consolidation phase, during which price action formed a pattern resembling a symmetrical triangle or wedge. This is marked with red dashed lines on the chart, showing indecision in the market as the price was suppressed.  Master Ananda revealed that after this triangle formation, XRP broke out around April  7, 2025 — a date now marked as a potential inflection point in the cryptocurrency’s market cycle. Since then, weekly candles have consistently closed in the green, indicating renewed bullish momentum.  Adding to Master Ananda’s bullish case for the XRP price is a Fibonacci retracement and extension levels drawn from the previous major swing high to the recent low. These levels help identify potential resistance and target zones for the next leg up.  Notably, the retracement levels have been marked around $2.05 (0.236 Fib), $2.39 (0.382 Fib), and $2.71 (0.618 Fib), culminating at the previous high of $3.40. Fibonacci extension project potential targets are at $4.50 (1.618 Fib), and the highest level is at $6.29 (2.618 Fib).  Currently, the trajectory of the curved green arrow in the chart shows a more probable price target of around $5.9. However, XRP will still have to surge past the aforementioned retracement levels and the resistance at $4.5 to reach this level. The overall takeaway of this analysis is that XRP is printing strong bullish signals, and its current consolidation is seen as a precursor to further growth.  The asset Approaches Make Or Break Zone XRP is entering a decisive phase, as crypto analyst Egrag Crypto predicts an imminent breakout from a tight consolidation range, within which the cryptocurrency has been trading for months. The analyst’s chart shows a purple zone, which he described as a “pandora box.” This zone represents a critical price range acting as both resistance and support, effectively trapping price action. Related Reading: XRP Price Surge To $10: Analyst Reveals Factors That Will Make It Happen In 2025 Egrag Crypto emphasizes that a breakout above or below this boxed range could ignite high volatility and significant momentum for XRP. He frames it as a pivotal moment where big moves, possibly explosive ones, are expected to happen. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP has re-entered a pivotal trading range against Bitcoin (BTC), stirring up excitement as technical signals suggest a potential breakout. This move is reinforcing its bullish position, highlighting three major price targets that could confirm a larger macro rally.  XRP Sets Sights On Key Targets Against Bitcoin After months of consolidation, the XRP/BTC trading pair is now back inside a critical triangle formation, which market expert Egrag Crypto has identified as a key price range to watch for potential breakout or breakdown moves. The analyst shared a short-term XRP/BTC chart on X (formerly Twitter), explaining how important this price range is for the trading pair to hit new bullish targets and reach even larger goals.  Related Reading: XRP Analyst Highlights Ultimate Targets And Selling Strategy As XRP Price Rebounds This triangle structure, dating back years, acts as a roadmap for XRP/BTC’s potential breakout, but only if it successfully flips certain levels into support. The first major target highlighted by Egrag Crypto is $0.000003033, which represents the upper boundary of the triangle. A decisive breakout above this level would signal a structural shift, confirming a possible bullish breakout from the narrowing wedge.  The analyst’s second key target is $0.00003430, the local high from XRP/BTC’s last rally. This price level is crucial for momentum validation, as flipping this into support with strong volume would build strong confidence in the next upward move and show confirmation that it can hold above it. The third and most critical target the XRP/BTC pair is expected to reach is $0.00004300, which aligns with the Fibonacci 1.0 level and XRP/BTC’s previous cycle high. A move beyond this level suggests the beginning of a macro rally, unlocking access to higher Fibonacci extension levels, including:  1.272 Fib ($0.00007244) 1.414 Fib ($0.00009546) 1.618 Fib ($0.00014191) 1.888 Fib ($0.00030000) The Altcoin Must Hold Support Or Risk Macro Breakdown While Egrag Crypto’s breakout targets paint an optimistic picture, the XRP/BTC LTC analysis comes with a stark warning of a potential crash. The analyst has raised alarm bells, warning not to lose the 0.618 Fibonacci level at $0.00002032.  Related Reading: XRP Price To Break Out Of Consolidation: The Next Moonshot That Will Lead To $3 This support range acts as the last kind of defense for XRP/BTC’s bullish market structure. The analyst goes as far as to say, “Lose an arm, but don’t lose this range,” emphasizing the importance of maintaining this level. He further predicts that if the pair drops below this support level, it could see a decline to as low as $0.00000611. At the time of the analysis, XRP/BTC was trading at approximately $0.00002516, showing early signs of recovery after dipping below the triangle range. If bulls can defend this level and hold on to their upward momentum, the path toward flipping resistance levels into support becomes potentially clearer.  Egrag Crypto has also outlined potential price projections for the XRP based on the bullish scenario where the XRP/BTC pair reaches several upper Fibonacci levels and Bitcoin rallies to key milestones.  Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Crypto analyst Crypto Michael, who called the XRP price surge when it was trading at $0.5, has predicted the altcoin’s next move. Based on his prediction, XRP is set to sustain its current bullish momentum and possibly rally to a new all-time high (ATH) soon with a breakout above $3.  Analyst Predicts XRP Price Surge Above $3 In an X post, Michael predicted a second parabolic rally once the XRP price breaks the psychological $3. The analyst made this prediction while revealing that he had called this current XRP rally while the altcoin was still trading at $0.5. Indeed, last year, he stated that a historic breakout was incoming for the altcoin.  Related Reading: XRP Price Outperforms Bitcoin, Ethereum As ‘Strange Signal’ Emerges, Why The Target Is $4 Back then, he highlighted a unique 7-year-long bull pennant that had formed for the XRP price. Based on that bullish pattern, the analyst remarked that market participants might be about to witness one of the most significant breakouts in crypto history. XRP eventually broke out and became the second-best-performing asset among the top 10 cryptos by market cap in 2024.  Crypto analyst CasiTrade recently stated that the XRP price could witness an explosive move above $3 if it breaks and holds above $2.69. This means the projected parabolic rally for XRP above the $3 mark could happen soon. This rally could send the altcoin above its current ATH of around $3.84.  Crypto analyst Ali Martinez also suggested that the XRP price will unlikely encounter any major resistance as it targets a run to a new ATH. In an X post, he cited Glassnode data as he revealed that XRP has no major resistance clusters ahead. Meanwhile, the analyst noted that the key support zone is $2.38.  A Rally To Double Digits In This Cycle? Several crypto analysts have predicted that the XRP price can rally to double digits in this market cycle. In an X post, Pepa stated that the plan stays the same for XRP. His accompanying chart showed that he expects the altcoin to rally to as high as $30 by year-end or the start of next year.  Related Reading: XRP Price To Rally To $6: Partially Completed Wave 5 Says There’s Still Room To Run Crypto analyst CrediBULL Crypto also recently alluded to a previous analysis in which he predicted that the XRP price would reach $28 by year-end 2025. This move is expected to mark Wave 5 on his Elliott Wave Theory analysis. Similarly, analyst Egrag Crypto stated that XRP will reach between $27 and $33 in this cycle. Crypto analyst Mikybull Crypto offered a more conservative target, predicting that the altcoin will reach between $4 and $6 in this cycle.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.52, down almost 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.  Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP prices moved by almost 3% in the past day as the crypto market bounce continues. However, the prominent altcoin remains in danger of significant market downside. According to renowned X market expert Crypto Egrag, XRP must close above certain price levels to invalidate this bearish pattern and validate its bullish trajectory. Related Reading: Major XRP Accumulation Alert: Wallets Holding Over 10,000 Coins Cross 300,000 XRP Faces Critical Resistance At $2.41-$2.45, But $2.96 Represents Ultimate Challenge  In a recent series of X posts, Egrag Crypto has previously stated that XRP was at a major crossroads facing a pivotal breakout or a potential retest. In line with the crypto market, XRP has seen a sustained price rebound since mid-April, gaining by 35.95%. However, Egrag Crypto warns that the altcoin is facing major resistance at the price range between $2.41-$2.45, which aligns with the descending trend line of the market correction that had dominated the first quarter of 2025. To strengthen the bullish case of its recent breakout, the analyst explains that XRP must move and stay above this price resistance, thereby neutralizing the bearish outlook. If XRP fails to make a convincing breakout above $2.41-$2.45 and slips into consolidation, the altcoin faces the potential of a retest to around $1.2-$1.3, representing a potential 46.05% decline from today’s price. However, the analyst explains that such a retest would only provide a massive accumulation opportunity as the long-term outlook for XRP still remains bullish.  In a following post on May 10, Egrag Crypto states XRP must also reclaim the $2.96 price zone to confirm a sustainable uptrend. Notably, the $2.96 price level represents the next major price resistance after the descending trendline and is the closest to the current local market top. Related Reading: Bitcoin Advanced NVT Sits Above This Critical Threshold — What It Means For Price Action XRP Market Overview At press time, XRP is trading at $2.41, reflecting a 2.77% gain in the past day. On larger time frames, the altcoin holders are in significant profits as indicated by gains of 10.17% and 23.37% on the weekly and monthly charts, respectively.  Generally, the market sentiment among XRP investors remains bullish, especially following recent developments in the legal case between Ripple and the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).  On May 8, the SEC announced a settlement that includes the return of $75 million held in escrow to Ripple, which comes months after the Commission signaled its intentions to terminate its appeal case against the blockchain company. With a market cap of $241.95 billion, XRP remains the fourth-largest cryptocurrency and third-largest altcoin in the digital asset space. Featured image from Pexels, chart from Tradingview

XRP analyst Egrag Crypto, who is well-known for offering bullish predictions about the altcoin, has now drawn the crypto community’s attention to another altcoin, XDC. The analyst predicts this crypto token could also witness a remarkable surge and enjoy up to a 3,350% gain as bullish metrics emerge.  XDC To Rally To $2 As Indicators Turn Bullish In an X post, Egrag Crypto stated that XDC will rally to $1 and then easily surge to $2. This came as he remarked that the altcoin’s chart looks “amazing.” First, the XRP analyst noted that the RGB (Red-Green-Blue) indicators perfectly align with the XDC token. Based on this, he asserted that the next move for the altcoin could be a 10x pump. Related Reading: Fartcoin Reaches Critical Make-Or-Break Level: Analyst Reveals What Could Happen From $0.77  This XDC price surge is expected to target the Fibonacci levels between 1.414 and 1.618, rallying to between $0.50 and $0.80. The XRP analyst remarked that this is still below the previous cycle’s blow-off top, when the token soared by 3,350%. He expects XDC to replicate this explosive move, potentially surging to the $2 target.  The XRP analyst alluded to the Stochastic Relative Strength Index (SRSI) as another bullish indicator. He revealed that the SRSI is waving bullish signals. The analyst admitted that there is still a long road for XDC to reach and sustain RSI levels above 80, but claimed that the momentum is definitely on the bulls’ side. In line with this, Egrag Crypto asserted that big moves could just be around for the altcoin.  The Bearish Angle For The Altcoin The XRP analyst also provided a bearish angle for the XDC price. He revealed that the 21 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is on the verge of crossing below the 33 Moving Average. If that happens, the analyst warned that it could turn super bearish.  Related Reading: Altcoin Season In Danger If Bitcoin Dominance Closes April Above This Level However, he added that this crossover will most likely be avoided and that there could be a blow-off top before the inevitable retracement. The analyst also urged market participants to be attentive as the sharp move higher would come unexpectedly before a big crash to the downside.  From a fundamental perspective, XDC’s outlook also looks bullish. The XDC network just officially joined the MiCA alliance, which is a major step forward in aligning blockchain innovation with regulatory clarity in Europe. The team stated that the network is deeply committed to compliance, transparency, and building long-term trust. Like Ripple’s offering using XRP for cross-border payments, XDC is a layer-1 that offers real-world applications like trade finance, cross-border payments, and RWA tokenization. At the time of writing, the XDC price is trading at around $0.07, up over 1% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto predicted a macro channel breakout that could be imminent for the XRP. The analyst indicated that the altcoin could reach double digits if this breakout plays out as expected.  XRP Price Eyes Rally To $55 With Potential Macro Channel Breakout In an X post, Egrag Crypto raised the possibility of a macro channel breakout for the XRP price and stated that the measured move points to a potential high of $55. He stated that he had his eyes on the $27 target, although he indicated that the altcoin will likely surpass this price level on this move as it looks to hit $55.  Related Reading: Is The XRP Price Rally Over At $2.22? New Developments Suggest Major Pump Is Coming This ultra-bullish prediction came as the analyst revealed that the XRP price is currently in candle number 5. He remarked that if history is any guide, then market participants should be looking at a mega monthly candle. If XRP were to follow the same pattern, the analyst affirmed that the target of $17 is definitely in play.  In another X post, Egrag Crypto again predicted that the XRP price could at least reach $27 in this market cycle. He stated that he is becoming increasingly convinced that XRP is mirroring the 2017 bull run, although the timing may be either delayed or accelerated. The analyst predicted that the altcoin would reach double digits by the end of Wave 3 this summer.  Meanwhile, he believes Wave 4 will unfold over the next three years, followed by a bear market, and then the XRP price will reach triple digits in the next bull run. Egrag Crypto is confident that XRP could reach as high as $120 when that time comes. In the meantime, XRP is still battling to break above key resistance levels, which could pave the way for a new all-time high (ATH).  A Bull Pennant Forming On Weekly Chart In an X post, crypto analyst XRPunkie drew attention to a bull pennant that was forming for the XRP price on the weekly chart. He stated that this bullish pattern is ready for a breakout once XRP completes the final pullback to between $1.80 and $2. The analyst added that the technical target of this bull pennant is between $13 and $14. XRPunkie warned that there will be more pullbacks along the way to $14, so he advised that investors look to secure profits.  Related Reading: Analyst Sets XRP Price Target At $6.5, These Dates Are Key Crypto analyst Ali Martinez has indicated that the short-term target for the XRP price is between $2.70 and $2.90. In an X post, he stated that the altcoin looks to be breaking out of an inverse head and shoulders pattern, with a potential upside target of these price levels.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.2, down almost 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Market analyst Egrag Crypto has tipped XRP to fall to $1.25 in the short term, barring a specific price development. Despite a bullish trading week, which saw the altcoin trade at $2.29, the market expert explains that XRP is yet to confirm a market bottom, indicating the potential of a future price fall. Related Reading: SUI Primed For Market Correction – Analyst Sets Target At $2.75 Crucial Times Ahead: XRP Must Break $2.33–$2.45 To Invalidate Bearish Forecast  In an X post on April 26, Egrag Crypto shared a bearish forecast on the XRP market, suggesting a potential downswing lies on the horizon. Based on the technical analysis of the XRP trading chart, altcoin appears to be trading below the Bull Market Support Band despite recent gains due to the extensive price correction in Q1 2025. For context, the Bull Market Support Band is a price zone formed from two moving averages to help traders detect whether an asset remains in a bull market or not. When prices fall below this support band, it often signals a bear market risk. For XRP to invalidate this negative forecast, the fourth-largest cryptocurrency must close above $2.33, which represents the immediate resistance level. Importantly, XRP must reclaim the $2.45, which currently acts as the upper edge of the Bull Market Support Band.  Achieving a decisive close above both critical price levels would signal a strong market demand and reduce fear of a larger price correction. However, if XRP fails to break above this band soon, the 0.702 Fibonacci level around $1.25 becomes a likely potential target.  Egrag Crypto explains that this Fibonacci level aligns with the previous breakout structure, thus making it a strong historical support. However, a price fall to $1.25 would only constitute a major retest, which could reinforce the long-term bullish structure of the XRP market. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Reaches Last H1 Support, Next Major Resistance Comes Into View XRP Price Overview At the time of writing, XRP trades at $2.18, reflecting a decline of 0.78% in the last day. The prominent altcoin is also down 5.08% on the monthly chart, indicating that bearish pressures are still strong in the market. According to data from Coincodex, market sentiment currently remains neutral, with investors still uncertain of XRP’s future. Notably, only 40% of XRP’s last 30 trading days have been profitable. Interestingly, Coincodex analysts expect the asset to retain its recent bullish form in the short term to potentially trade at $2.50 in five days. However, they remain highly bearish on long-term prospects, projecting a price of $1.97 in one month and $1.65 in three months. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview

XRP is gearing up for a surge to $120, according to popular crypto analyst EGRAG CRYPTO. Taking to social media platform X, the analyst shared a fresh chart detailing a bullish outlook for XRP, suggesting that the cryptocurrency is retracing a path similar to its explosive 2017 rally. This time, however, the trajectory could be even more dramatic, as the chart accompanying his post outlines a long-term Elliott Wave formation that points first to $27 and eventually to a staggering $120 price tag.  Echoes of 2017: XRP Retracing Cycle That Took Price To All-Time High The 2017 bull cycle is one of the most iconic periods in XRP’s history. It was during this phase that the price of XRP rallied from under $0.01 to an all-time high of $3.84, driven by a broader crypto market bubble, exchange listings, and speculation surrounding Ripple’s adoption among financial institutions. Related Reading: XRP Outflows Cross $300 Million In April, Why The Price Could Crash Further The rally followed a classic Elliott Wave impulse structure, with five distinct waves characterized by short consolidations before each major leg upward. By early 2018, the bubble had popped, and XRP, like the rest of the crypto market, entered into a prolonged bear phase. EGRAG CRYPTO’s post implies that XRP is now following a similar pattern to the one in 2017. Particularly, the analyst noted that XRP is currently in the process of forming its second wave, which is a retracement of the bullish impulse Wave 1. This impulse Wave 1 is characterized by XRP’s surge to $3.4 between Q4 2024 and January 2025. Wave 2, on the other hand, is characterized by the price correction since January, which has sent the XRP price back to trading around $2.  Now, the next step is for wave 3 to begin formation. Based on traditional Elliott Wave ratios, this wave tends to extend aggressively, often measuring 161.8% of Wave 1. According to EGRAG, XRP’s price is expected to end Wave 3 above double digits sometime in summer 2025. It is at this point that the analyst predicted a top out around $27, nearly ten times its current trading price. Following that, his outlook anticipates a lengthy Wave 4 correction lasting several years, setting the stage for a final Wave 5 extension that could see XRP break into triple digits. The $120 Long-Term Target In his projection, the $27 level will mark the completion of Wave 3, followed by a Wave 4 correction that could potentially span three years. This correction would be brutal and cause the XRP price to reach a bottom around $5.50. Related Reading: XRP Price In April: The Lows, The Highs, And Final Blast-Off After this consolidation phase, the ensuing Wave 5 formation will catapult XRP to new highs again and go on the same measured move as Wave 1 or 61.8% of Wave 1 + Wave 3.  If this plays out as EGRAG expects, XRP would break into triple-digit territory and ultimately peak around $120. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.19, up by 2% in the past 24 hours. Reaching the $27 and $120 price targets would translate to 1,132% and 5,380% increases, respectively, from the current price. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Crypto analyst Melika Trader has warned about a bearish pattern that could be forming for the Bitcoin price. Based on this, the analyst predicts that the largest crypto by market cap could crash to as low as $78,000.  Bitcoin Price Forming Head And Shoulders Pattern  In a TradingView post, Melika Trader revealed that the Bitcoin price is forming a complex head-and-shoulders pattern. He remarked that the left shoulder and double head had already formed while the right shoulder is currently forming, with BTC at risk of suffering a massive crash once this happens.  Related Reading: Analyst’s Bitcoin Price Prediction From March Plays Out, Here’s The Rest Of It As part of the expected move, Melika Trader suggested that the Bitcoin price could show a possible fake breakout above the resistance between $87,000 and $88,000. Once that happens, the analyst predicts that a strong drop will follow, with BTC dropping to as low as $78,000, which is the first support area.  The Bitcoin price has surged past the $90,000 mark on the back of the US Dollar dropping to new lows and has continued to reach new highs, leading to optimism that it could soon reclaim $100,000. There is the possibility that BTC could still rally to as high as $98,000 before any massive correction.   Crypto analyst Ali Martinez revealed that on-chain data shows that the next key area of resistance for the Bitcoin price is between $95,600 and $98,290. That range acts as a major supply wall, as 1.65 million addresses bought 1.09 million BTC around that area. Bitcoin’s next move will depend on whether these holders choose to hold or offload their coins as soon as it reclaims this range.  However, it is worth mentioning that crypto whales are actively accumulating BTC, which is bullish for the Bitcoin price. Martinez revealed that over 17,000 BTC have been withdrawn from exchanges in the past week.  BTC Eyeing Rally To A New All-Time High Crypto analyst Titan of Crypto has predicted that the Bitcoin price could soon rally to as high as $137,000, marking a new all-time high (ATH) for the leading crypto. He stated that BTC has finally broken out of a bull pennant, with two strong consecutive daily bullish candles, confirming this move. The analyst added that the projected target is $137,000 if this bull pennant is confirmed.  Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Following Analyst’s Prediction For Bullish Breakout, Here’s The Target Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto stated that a daily close above $93,000 will send a strong bullish signal, while raising the possibility of BTC rallying above $100,000. He claimed that any retracement fears will be eliminated if the leading crypto closes above $103,000.  At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $93,000, up over 5% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

XRP is back trading above, $2, and bullish momentum is gradually creeping back compared to its price action at the end of March and beginning of April. Crypto analyst EGRAG CRYPTO believes this week could highlight a turning point for a full flip into bullish momentum, and how the XRP price closes out the week will be very important. According to the analyst’s outlook, which was posted on social media platform X, the current XRP candle on the weekly timeframe is hovering just above both $2.10 and the 21-week Exponential Moving Average (EMA). However, he noted that the real confirmation lies with if XRP can manage to close the week with a full-bodied candle above $2.25. Why Is $2.25 Important For XRP’s Price? The $2.25 level has now become more than just another short-term resistance. It is what EGRAG considers the final barrier to validating the recovery structure forming after March and April’s sharp retracement. His weekly chart shows XRP climbing out from a significant low after bouncing off the 0.888 Fib extension level and now stabilizing above the yellow 21-week EMA line. Related Reading: XRP To Flip Bitcoin This Cycle? Analyst Points To Major Bounce The alignment of XRP’s price above both the $2.10 price level and this moving average adds credibility to the potential of a bullish continuation, but EGRAG makes it clear that a weekly close above $2.25 is the “lock-in” point. From a technical standpoint, this would mark the first full-bodied weekly candle above the 21W EMA since the past four weeks. If achieved, this can be interpreted confirmation that bulls have regained dominance and that a bottom was established on April 7. Furthermore, it suggests that the April 7 bottom will continue to hold as support going forward. The chart also outlines close price targets at $2.51 and $2.60, with Fibonacci extension levels projecting even higher zones at $2.69 on the way to crossing back above $3. Failing To Close Above $2.25 Could Reintroduce Unwanted Narratives EGRAG also issued a cautionary note in case there isn’t a clean breakout. Should XRP fail to close the weekly candle above $2.25, he warned it could trigger a return of bearish narratives, including what he referred to as a possible “tariff issue.” This is referring to the recent tariff back-and-forth between the US and China in the past month, which has unbalanced the investment markets.

The white box region on the chart above would then become the primary battleground for bulls and bears if a close above $2.25 is not secured by the end of the week.

XRP has staged an impressive recovery to reclaim the $2 price level after plunging to a weekly low of $1.657 in a steep midweek correction. The rebound comes at a crucial time for the cryptocurrency, with analysts paying closer attention to historical price behaviors and bullish technical patterns. Among them is EGRAG CRYPTO, a popular XRP analyst on X, who believes that the cryptocurrency could be on the cusp of a monumental surge reminiscent of its previous bull cycles in 2017 and 2021. The Power Of Time Cycles And Exponential Moving Averages EGRAG’s technical analysis focuses on a recurring structure seen in XRP’s past cycles, using the 21-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and 33-period Moving Average (MA) on the biweekly timeframe. According to his analysis, which was revealed on social media platform X, both the 2017 and 2021 rallies were preceded by similar technical setups: a sustained bottoming process lasting around 770 days followed by a bullish reversal. Related Reading: This Analyst Correctly Called The XRP Price Crash, Here Are The Next Targets These phases were marked by what he described as “blow-off tops,” where XRP posted parabolic gains after bouncing off the 21 and 33 exponential moving averages. The current market structure, EGRAG noted, aligns closely with those previous cycles. After a prolonged bearish trend and a second recorded “bearish cross” in 2022, XRP has once again moved above both the 21 EMA and 33 MA. In his view, this sets the stage for a similar breakout scenario, one that could play out before the end of 2025. EGRAG uses this pattern to suggest a timeline of roughly 770 days from the last major crossover in early 2022, placing the projected breakout target around September 29, 2025. XRP Can Surge To $45 Interestingly, EGRAG’s price prediction based on the premise of how a similar 2017 or 2021 movement can play out for XRP. In 2017, XRP posted a rally of approximately 2,700%, and in 2021, a slightly lower surge of about 1,050%. By mapping those gains onto the current price structure, EGRAG predicted two potential targets: a more conservative $19 level and a bold $45 level. Between these two targets is a mid-range target of $27 which he has previously favored.

In his own words, “Will it rhyme exactly? No, because if it were that easy, everyone would be a multimillionaire.” Still, the emotional patterns of market participants, human reactions and behaviors, tend to repeat to create opportunities where a previous price action might play out again, even if not 100%.  The analyst ended his analysis with a strategic note to long-term holders and short-term traders alike, consider a Dollar-Sell-Average (DSA) approach when the XRP price starts to climb.  At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.04, up by 2.6% in the past 24 hours.

The XRP price may be gearing up for a historic breakout as a long-term Symmetric Triangle pattern from 2017 resurfaces on the charts. If history repeats and a similar explosive move follows, a crypto analyst predicts XRP could skyrocket to an eye-popping $30.  XRP Price Triangle Pattern Signals Breakout Above $30 A new technical analysis by Egrag Crypto, a crypto analyst on X (formerly Twitter), has stirred excitement among​​ XRP supporters, suggesting that the digital asset may be on the brink of a historic price surge and that XRP could jump from its current market value of $2 to reach $30 soon. Related Reading: Crypto Pundit Reveals What Will Happen If XRP Price Does Not Break $2.3 While this figure may seem rather ambitious, Egrag Crypto has identified a massive Symmetrical Triangle formation on XRP’s monthly chart. Interestingly, the analyst has revealed that this pattern is strikingly similar to one that preceded XRP’s legendary 2,600% rally in the 2017 bull market.  In the 2017-2018 bull market, XRP had surged to an all-time high of $3.84 in just months. Now, after years of tightening price action within a giant Symmetrical Triangle, the altcoin appears to be breaking out once again, and this time, the analyst predicts that the upside could be even more explosive.  According to Egrag Crypto’s chart, if the asset mirrors its previous 2,600% triangle breakout, it could soar from the breakout zone around $1.20 to as high as $32.36. Notably, XRP’s Symmetrical Triangle formation is a classic consolidation pattern that usually results in a bullish surge in the direction of the prevailing trend.  Currently, XRP’s all-time high is $3.84. A potential surge to $32.36 would represent a whopping 741.6% increase, propelling its price to a level far exceeding its historical peak.  Bullish Pennants Strengthen Symmetrical Triangle Forecast Egrag Crypto’s bullish forecast for XRP is supported by a textbook diagram comparing bullish pennants and symmetrical triangles, both of which point to double target zones once a breakout occurs. The pattern suggests that once the altcoin escapes its multi-year consolidation, the analyst’s projected rally may play out in three stages: an initial pump, followed by a retracement, and a second explosive move.   Related Reading: XRP Price Eyes 20% Move With Golden Pocket Appearance The XRP price chart shows a lower target, around $3.52, which aligns with the 1.0 Fibonacci retracement level. This indicates that the token could see a temporary rebound to 3.52, followed by a short-term pullback to the triangle breakout point at $1.20, before ultimately bouncing toward the projected $32.36 target.  Notably, this movement aligns with XRP’s current market structure, where it has maintained long-term support and is now showing signs of upward momentum. While historical price patterns offer insights into potential moves, the predicted rise to $32.36 is uncertain, given the magnitude of such a rise.

Crypto analyst Joao, who correctly predicted the XRP price crash, has revealed the altcoin’s next targets. Based on his latest prediction, more pain could lie ahead for XRP, which could still drop below $1.  What’s Next For The XRP Price After The Crash Below $2 In a TradingView post, Joao stated that a long-term distribution phase could be the “most chaotic scenario” for the XRP price following its crash below $2. Through his accompanying chart, the analyst illustrated a “radical distribution scheme” that could potentially extend into late 2025.  Related Reading: XRP Price Chart Flashes Inverse Head And Shoulders Pattern That Could Trigger Rally To $3.9 Joao remarked that the XRP price could first show a sign of weakness, dropping below the COVID dump levels, possibly close to $0.10. As that plays out, XRP could follow the Scheme 1 or 2 trajectory. For Scheme 1, the analyst predicts that XRP would drop to $0.1 and then bounce back to $0.4, which is the last point of supply.  On the other hand, if Scheme 2 plays out, he predicts that the XRP price could spike between $5 and $6.8, with an average peak around $5.5 to $5.7, which would likely trigger extreme euphoria. Joao warned that this is just one of the “insane” possibilities and that XRP’s price action will depend heavily on Bitcoin, market makers, supply and demand, public interest, and the macro market.  Crypto analyst John also recently warned that the XRP price retracement could deepen to mid-2024 levels, with the altcoin dropping to the Fib price level of $0.3827. The analyst highlighted a bearish engulfing that formed on XRP’s weekly chart in late March, which is why he believes that the altcoin could still drop to these lows.  Meanwhile, crypto analyst Egrag Crypto stated that based on an ascending broadening wedge, there is a 70% chance of a downside breakout and a 30% chance of a move to the upside. He claimed that the measured move for the downside breakout for the XRP price is $0.65.  $1.90 Has Become Resistance For The Altcoin In an X post, crypto analyst CasiTrades revealed that $1.90 has become a major resistance to the XRP price. She noted that the altcoin’s price fell to around $1.61 following the Black Monday crash on April 7. This low is said to have made new extremes on the RSI across the market, and it was just shy of major support.  Related Reading: XRP Flashes Descending Trendline, Why A Surge To $4 Is Still In The Cards The XRP price has since rebounded to test the $1.90 level, which CasiTrades affirmed is a major resistance at this point. She remarked that the next support is $1.55, the golden .618 retracement. The analyst added that this price action is exactly what sets up the kind of Wave 3 that breaks through all-time highs (ATHs).  In line with this, CasiTrades claimed that if the XRP price bottoms near $1.55, it would actually strengthen the bullish case for a rally to between $8 and $13 this month. She believes that XRP would easily break the resistance around its ATH on this Wave 3 and possibly send it to as high as $13.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.8, up over 10% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Renowned market analyst Egrag Crypto has shared another puzzling XRP price prediction stating the altcoin is at a major technical crossroads. This development follows a resilient price performance in the past week during which XRP gained by 2.07% as the broader crypto market stands bullish despite the announcement of new US trade tariffs. Related Reading: Cardano (ADA) At A Crossroads As Fibonacci Level Indicates Potential Fall To $0.42 Ascending Wedge Signals Incoming Volatility — Which Way Will XRP Break? In an X post on April 5, Egrag Crypto issued a dual price forecast on the XRP market based on the potential implications of a forming Ascending Broadening Wedge pattern. Also known as the megaphone pattern, the chart formation signals increasing volatility and investor indecisions. It looks like a widening triangle with two diverging trendlines, as seen in the chart below. The Ascending Broadening Wedge presents high unpredictability and offers a 70% chance of a downside breakout and a 30% probability of an upside breakout. However, despite this statistical bias, the analyst postulates the chances of an upside remain valid if certain conditions are met. According to the analyst, XRP must first close above $3.50 for a bullish scenario to start taking shape. In doing so, the altcoin would surpass the local peak of the current bull cycle and confirm intentions of an upward momentum. Following this move, XRP bulls should then aim for the $5 range—another key resistance level that could determine the asset’s next major move. Interestingly, Egrag explains that a failure to convincingly close above $5 would only be a critical development that completes the formation of the Ascending Wedge Pattern and increases the likelihood of a breakout. If this rejection occurs, XRP is expected to retest the $1.90 area and make a second push toward the $5, this time breaking through and closing above $6. Egrag states the breakout above $6 would validate the bullish run and likely spark a surge toward double-digit territory with a potential target at $17.50 based on the Ascending Wedge Pattern. However, should XRP bulls fail to meet these conditions or follow this sequence, the historical 70% chance of a breakdown points to a downside target of around $0.65.

Meanwhile, the token’s trading volume is down by 62.92% in the past day indicating a fall in market engagement and a declining buying pressure following the recent market gain. In making any significant uptrend, XRP bulls must first reclaim the following resistances at $2.47 and $2.61 while avoiding any slip below the $2 support zone.

Prominent market analyst and XRP enthusiast Egrag Crypto has rolled out a robust bullish prediction for the XRP market. Amid recent gains, Egrag Crypto postulates that XRP could surge to around $5 but not without resistance at certain price levels. At press time, the popular altcoin continues to trade around $2.12 reflecting a 3.99% gain in the past day amid a widespread price bounce in the crypto market. Related Reading: Shiba Inu’s Shibarium Marks 1 Billion Transactions Milestone, But Why Is SHIB Price Still Struggling? Fibonacci Levels Reveal $2.70 As Key To Major XRP Rally – Details In an X post on Friday, Egrag shares a positive technical outlook on the XRP market suggesting a potential massive price rally. This projected bullish run comes in multiple phases each barred by the clearance of a new resistance level. To show any signs of a price uptrend, the market analyst states that XRP bulls must first reclaim the $2.24 price level which aligns with the 21-day exponential moving average – a key trend indicator. Egrag explains that a daily close above this level would show sufficient base demand to kickstart a price recovery. Thereafter, another successful XRP daily price close above $2.30 would solidify bullish intent signaling a stronger upside continuation. This is because this price level represents the Fib. 0.382, which is a key retracement zone in technical analysis and typically acts as a resistance in a downtrend and support in an uptrend. Moving on, the next crucial resistance lies at $2.47 which aligns with Fib. 0.5. A convincing breakout above this price resistance zone would further increase the potential of a sustained uptrend. However, the strongest signal for a major rally and a new all-time high price will come only after XRP closes above $2.70 which coincides with both the yellow resistance line and the Fib. 0.618. Interestingly, Fib. 0.618, known as the golden ratio, is considered another important Fibonacci level that acts as support in an uptrend, and failure to break past which could signal a price reversal and halt the uptrend. However, if XRP successfully surpasses the listed resistance zones, Egrag forecasts a potential surge to $5.00 at Fib. 1.618, representing a 133% gain from the current market price and signaling strong potential for new price discovery.

Based on the daily trading chart, the altcoin remains far below its 100-day simple moving average suggesting a dominant bearish force. However, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) which stands at 42.69 moving upward, signals the potential for more price growth before a possible reversal. With a market cap of $123.06 billion, XRP continues to rank as the fourth largest cryptocurrency. Featured image from EXMO, chart from Tradingview

Egrag Crypto, a prominent crypto market analyst on X (formerly Twitter), has unveiled new bullish projections for the XRP price, with an ambitious extended target of $44. The price forecast has sparked excitement among investors, especially as the analyst reveals the ideal time to take profits.  XRP Price Next Bullish Targets Unveiled On March 25, Egrag Crypto shared an XRP price analysis, revealing several measured bullish targets for the cryptocurrency. The analyst predicted that his extended or long-term price target for XRP was $44, representing a massive 1,688% increase from its present market value.  Related Reading: XRP Price Ready To Bounce Back Above $3 If Bulls Can Hold This Level Egrag Crypto’s future price projections for XRP highlight a conservative target of $15, a normal measurement of $22, a personal target of $27, and an extended measurement of $44. While the extended bullish target represents the most ambitious scenario, considering XRP is still trading under $3, the analyst suggests that the cryptocurrency could first reach these intermediate levels before making a push toward $44. Notably, the analyst has shared a chart, highlighting XRP’s support and resistance levels, and historic trendlines. The upward blue trendline represents a long-term rising support level at $1.99. Additionally, the white and black horizontal lines in the chart show that the XRP price recently broke above a key resistance zone, further reinforcing its bullish position.  Egrag Crypto also cites XRP’s historical price action and trend lines as support for his projected bullish targets. The yellow arrow in the chart shows that in 2018, the cryptocurrency experienced a major price surge to its current ATH of $3.84. As highlighted by the blue arrow, another major price spike occurred in the last bull run in 2021. Following this bull market trend, XRP is expected to rally again before the end of the bull cycle in Q4 2025. While this projected surge to $44 may seem rather ambitious, XRP has historically demonstrated the potential for exponential growth during bull cycles. Just this year, the cryptocurrency had surpassed expectations, jumping from $0.5 to $3 for the first time in almost 7 years.  When Traders Can Take Profits While the extended bullish measurement of $44 is an optimistic scenario for the XRP price, Egrag Crypto has advised investors to be strategic with their profit-taking approach. The analyst suggests that traders can consider securing profits as prices gradually go up rather than waiting for the highest possible price, which can be unpredictable. This strategy prioritizes risk management, guaranteeing some returns even if the price of the cryptocurrency later drops.  Related Reading: XRP Price Continuation After Crash Below $2.4? New Targets Emerge Egrag Crypto’s XRP price chart shows that during the last rally, the analyst took profits early at $2.42 instead of waiting for a price peak. This time, he has identified the price point between $5 and $9 as a key zone where traders can start taking profits before XRP reaches its first conservative target of $15.

XRP emerged as a major headliner in the past week as the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) officially dropped its four-year case with Ripple. Notably, this development resulted in a significant demand for XRP as the altcoin surged over 13% to briefly trade at $2.60 on March 20. However, XRP has since retraced over the last 24 hours and is now valued at around $2.39. Albeit, the altcoin still remains set for major bullish gains based on recent analysis by market expert Egrag Crypto. Related Reading: CMT-Certified Expert Explains Why Bitcoin May Not Reach Past Extremes On Indicators XRP Strong Monthly Close Indicates Major Upside Potential  In an X post on March 21, Egrag Crypto shares an interesting bullish prediction on the XRP based on price action in recent months and the Fibonacci retracement levels. The analyst notes that XRP has consistently closed above Fib. 1.0 level over the past three months forming full body candles. This development demonstrates XRP’s resilience amidst an uncertain crypto market reinforcing the potential of bullish momentum. This is because full-body candles provide stronger confirmation of price movements compared to wick formations. With the altcoin maintaining such strong technical strength, Egrag predicts XRP could soon start gaining with its first price target at Fib 1.236. However, there is no serious resistance at this level suggesting a continuous surge to Fib Circle 5 and Fib 1.414 i.e. a price range of $5-$6. Based on the Fibonacci levels, XRP could then see major price extensions to Fib 1.618 hinting at a potential price target of $9-$10. However, it is worth noting that the timing of these events is quite consequential for XRP and the general crypto market. According to Egrag Crypto, if the projected price gains occur between now and May, a price correction is likely to follow hinting at a continuation of the bull run and higher price targets for XRP.  However, if the anticipated price movements happen in the summer of 2025 or in Q4 2025, it could suggest a market top, marking the end of the current market cycle.

Meanwhile, the asset’s daily trading volume is down by 31.64% indicating a decline in market interest despite a recent price surge. Featured image from globalEDGE, chart from Tradingview 

A crypto analyst has predicted that the XRP price could hit $27 soon. He describes the cryptocurrency’s current price action as a “ Bermuda Triangle or boredom phase” — a period where the market moves slowly or sideways, fuelling doubt and uncertainty among traders and investors before a price rally.  XRP Price Boredom Phase To Trigger $27 Surge Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has warned that the XRP price is in a Bermuda Triangle, a boredom phase characterized by price stagnation and market uncertainty designed to shake out weak hands before a significant price move. According to his prediction, while traders and investors are growing impatient and questioning why XRP has not experienced any notable price increases, this phase is merely a set-up for a strong rally toward $27. Related Reading: Crypto Pundit Reignites $100 XRP Price Target, What You Should Know Following a predicted downturn in mid-March, XRP has struggled to recover its bullish momentum. The cryptocurrency was one of the top-performing altcoins in this bull cycle, jumping from a $0.5 low to over $3 for the first time in seven years. Due to the current market decline, Egrag Crypto revealed that many traders are now wondering why “XRP hasn’t mooned.” The analyst explained that this price decline was intentional, forcing investors to second-guess themselves and make emotional trading decisions.  He also disclosed that the XRP market is now filled with ‘What ifs’, as Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) cloud traders’ minds. Moreover, concerns over potential dips to $1.60 or $1.30 could push investors to panic-sell or attempt risky trades.  The analyst also revealed that the XRP market is currently controlled by sharks and larger players, also called Whales. These large holders tend to influence price movements, triggering stop-losses and shaking out weak hands before a major rally.  Egrag Crypto warns that new investors and traders are especially vulnerable, as frustration and boredom can lead to making financial mistakes. He disclosed that the best strategy to implement during this current market phase is to do nothing. He suggested investors stay disciplined and patient, recognizing that boredom phases are normal in crypto market cycles.  The analyst also urged investors to remain vigilant and hold their positions while accumulating at ideal prices rather than react impulsively to rapid changes in the market.  XRP Breakout Point Hints At New ATH In other analyses, market expert ‘Steph Is Crypto’ has announced that XRP is currently retesting breakout levels to trigger a surge to a fresh ATH. The analyst’s price chart shows a Falling Wedge pattern which has been broken above the resistance at the upper trend line.  Related Reading: XRP Threatens Death Cross On 4-Hour Chart, Is Another Crash Coming? After breaking out, XRP now retests this level to confirm a larger upward move. The large green arrow on the chart points to the cryptocurrency’s projected price target, suggesting a bullish continuation if the Falling Wedge breakout holds.  XRP’s upside potential is predicted to be $4 or higher if its bullish momentum is maintained. As of writing, the cryptocurrency is trading at $2.4, reflecting a 3.5% decline in the last 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap. If its price rises to $4, it would represent a significant 66.7% increase from current levels. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from Tradingview.com

Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has discussed the possibility of the XRP price witnessing another corrective move. He revealed the price level that XRP needs to stay above to avoid further downside pressure and rally to the upside.  XRP Needs To Stay Above $2.66 To Avoid Corrective Move  In an X post, Egrag Crypto stated that if XRP fails to close above the $2.65 to $2.70 range, it won’t negate the wave 4 move and will likely lead XRP down to the 5th wave. His accompanying chart showed that the altcoin could drop to as low as $1.7 on this corrective move, breaking the crucial $2 support level in the process. The analyst had previously highlighted this $2.65 as being critical for a bullish breakout.  Related Reading: XRP Price Ready To Bounce Back Above $3 If Bulls Can Hold This Level Egrag Crypto alluded to the fact that the US SEC was finally dropping its long-running lawsuit against Ripple, which is typically bullish for XRP. The analyst admitted that it was a significant win for long-term adoption and utility, reinforcing the belief in the altcoin’s use. However, he added that the focus has to be on the numbers and charts in the short term.  In line with this, he remarked that a close above $2.66 would be a good sign, followed by another close above $2.97 as a second bullish confirmation. He asserted that the ultimate confirmation for a bullish trend would be a close above $3.40, which is XRP’s current all-time high (ATH). A close above $3.40 would lead to the next target between $5 and $8.  Crypto analyst CasiTrades also echoed a similar sentiment, stating that XRP needs to break above $3.40 to confirm a new trend. Until then, she remarked that market participants will have to wait for signs of confirmation, which may not be obvious until wave 3 in the market cycle. Before now, the analyst affirmed that the market is on the edge of a breakout, and this week could be a defining moment, which already looks to be the case with the Ripple SEC lawsuit.  A Rally To $5 Already In Play Crypto analyst Dark Defender suggested that an XRP rally to $5 was already underway after the SEC decided to drop the Ripple lawsuit. His accompanying chart showed that XRP could witness a breakout to the $5 target. The altcoin will first rally to around $4.4 on wave 3, then correct to $3.7 on wave 4 before the rally to $5.6 on wave 5. Related Reading: XRP Price Retraces Gains From Sunday Rally, This Important Support Level Could Be The Defining Factor Meanwhile, crypto analyst CrediBULL Crypto raised the possibility of XRP dropping below $2 and reaching $1.7 before any parabolic move to the upside begins. He predicts that the altcoin will rally to double digits regardless of how the price action plays out in the short term.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.45, up over 7% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Crypto analyst MadWhale has raised the possibility of the XRP price experiencing a breakdown below the crucial $2 support level. The analyst also revealed the next major support if XRP drops below this support level.  XRP Price Could Drop To $1.90 If It Loses $2 Support In a TradingView post, MadWhale predicted that the XRP price could drop to the major support at $1.90 if it loses the psychological $2 level. He noted that XRP has demonstrated a classic triple-top formation, with each successive peak showing weaker momentum. In line with this, the analyst asserted that a break below the 42 threshold appears imminent as XRP nears a formidable resistance zone.  Related Reading: XRP Price Retraces Gains From Sunday Rally, This Important Support Level Could Be The Defining Factor MadWhale further stated that the downward move is expected to extend to at least $1.9, representing an 18% decline. The analyst added that such a price decline aligns with the primary target and a key daily support level. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez had also suggested that XRP could drop to as low as $1.2 if it loses the $2 support.  The analyst revealed that the XRP price was forming a head-and-shoulders pattern on the weekly chart, which puts the $2 support level in the spotlight. His accompanying chart showed that the crypto could drop to $1.2 if it breaks below $2. However, despite this bearish outlook, other crypto analysts, such as Egrag Crypto, have highlighted some positive aspects of the XRP price.  Egrag Crypto stated that the XRP price’s dominance was showing tremendous strength and predicted that if it successfully closed above Fib 0.5, it could soon rally to the Fib 0.888 level. Crypto analyst Dark Defender predicted that XRP could rally to a new all-time high (ATH) if it continues to hold the crucial support levels at $2.04 and $2.22. The Altcoin Still In Waiting Mode Crypto analyst CasiTrades stated that the XRP price is holding strong but is still in waiting mode. She added that the bullish structure remains intact, with the altcoin holding above $2.26, which is the key .382 retracement support. The analyst noted that XRP’s price has spent some time flipping the consolidation to support, indicating that markets are setting up for the next move. Related Reading: Analyst Shares Upper And Lower Targets For XRP Price The crypto analyst revealed the $2.70 and $3.05 resistance levels and $2.25 support level as the key levels to watch. She remarked that the XRP price needs to flip $2.70 and $3.05 to become support for the confirmation of the next wave up. Meanwhile, CasiTrades suggested that XRP risks dropping to as low as $1.54 if it loses the lower support support at $1.90.  The crypto analyst also mentioned that the price needs to break above $3.40, its current ATH, to confirm a new trend. Until then, the wait for signs of confirmation continues, which she claimed may not be obvious until wave 3 in the market cycle. CasiTrades asserted that key Fib levels have been breached, and the market is on the edge of a breakout.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.29, down over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Recent data has shown what the XRP price would be if it flips Ethereum’s market cap. Such a development would also lead to a new all-time high (ATH) for XRP. Meanwhile, crypto experts have given their opinions on whether XRP could indeed flip Ethereum.  How High The XRP Price Would Be If It Flips Ethereum’s Market Cap MarketCapOf data shows that the XRP price could reach as high as $3.94 if it flips Ethereum’s market cap. This is significant as a rally to this price level would mark a new ATH for the asset.  Flipping ETH’s market cap also means that XRP will become the second largest crypto by market cap.  Related Reading: XRP Price Continuation After Crash Below $2.4? New Targets Emerge The XRP price is already on the heels of the Ethereum price. It currently occupies the number four spot with a market cap of $135 billion while ETH boasts a market cap of $227 billion. Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto had previously predicted that the altcoin will flip ETH in this market cycle. In a recent X post, the analyst suggested that it will still likely happen.  He asserted that the XRP price’s dominance is exhibiting “tremendous strength” as it is on the verge of closing above the 2021 high of 6%, surpassing Fib 0.5. The analyst added that a close above that level would be super bullish since Fib 0.5 is a critical level. Egrag Crypto predicts that the altcoin could surge straight to Fib 0.888 if it successfully closes above 0.5. He noted that this would align with the highs from 2015.  The analyst stated that this prediction for the XRP price isn’t just speculation. He seems confident in this prediction because of the asset’s utility. While Egrag Crypto believes XRP could flip Ethereum, crypto expert Ansem argues that XRP can never flip Ethereum because its use cases cannot be compared to ETH’s, which boasts a robust ecosystem.  The $2 Support Level In The Spotlight Crypto analyst Ali Martinez has again highlighted the importance of the $2 support level. He noted that the price is shaping up a head-and-shoulders pattern on the weekly chart, which spotlights the $2 support level, as holding this price level is crucial. His accompanying chart showed that XRP could drop to as low as $1.2 if it loses this support.  Crypto analyst Dark Defender also highlighted $2.04 and $2.22 as the critical support levels for the asset. He suggested that it was important for XRP to hold above these price levels as it eyes a rally to the upside targets at $4.2932 and $5.8563. A rally to as high as $5 could see it flip Ethereum, especially if the latter continues to underperform.  Related Reading: XRP Price Eyes 40% Gains, Analyst Reveals The ‘Best Level’ To Buy And Hold At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.3, down over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

The XRP price could be staging a parabolic rally to new all-time highs of $110. While an analyst shares a technical analysis to back this ambitious target, Bollinger Bands creator John Bollinger declares XRP to be a market leader in the crypto space.  Analyst Predicts New XRP Price Target To $110 In a rather lengthy X (formerly Twitter) post, market expert Egrag Crypto went deep into his analysis for the XRP price, basing his predictions on its Elliott Wave structure. The crypto analyst confidently forecasted that XRP was heading towards a new $110 ATH. This bullish target would represent a whopping 3,974% increase from its current market value. Related Reading: XRP Price Continuation After Crash Below $2.4? New Targets Emerge Firstly, Egrag Crypto outlines XRP’s five-wave structure, underscoring that each wave could push the cryptocurrency to a new target. The analyst reveals that XRP is currently in Wave 2 of its Elliott Wave structure and is closely approaching Wave 3, which is expected to trigger the most explosive increase. In Wave 1, XRP saw an impressive 733% increase to new highs. However, in its current Wave 2, Egrag Crypto highlights that its 2017 fractal appears more profound. With the formation of a Double Bottom pattern, the analyst has predicted a potential price breakdown for the cryptocurrency.  Egrag Crypto further forecasts that Wave 3 will trigger a reversal and cause the price to skyrocket by 1,185%. This massive price increase would effectively place the XRP price at a potential target between $22 and $24. For a more conservative target, the analyst estimates a surge of around $22 to $24.  For Wave 4, Egrag Crypto predicts another major retracement similar to Wave 2. However, this time, the analyst believes XRP could decline by either 14.6%, 23.6%, or 38.2% from Wave 3’s price high. This correction would mark a 65% drop from Wave 3’s peak, bringing the cryptocurrency’s price down to $8. He also highlights a worse-case bearish scenario where XRP crashes as low as $3.4.  Notably, Egrag Crypto shares three potential bullish targets for Wave 5, the final part of the Elliott Wave Structure. He forecasts that the altcoin could surge between $32 to $48, $60 to $70, or $95 to $110. The analyst has based his optimistic forecast on past cycle trends, where 2017 saw a major price rally for XRP.  Bollinger Bands Creator Says The Asset To Become Leader In other news, Bollinger, the creator of the renowned Bollinger Band technical analysis tool, has highlighted XRP in his latest post, questioning whether it could take a leading role in the crypto market. The technical analyst asserts that Ripple has held up better than other primary crypto vehicles. Related Reading: Analyst Says Only Buy XRP If It Reaches This Level  Considering its legal battles with the US SEC and present regulatory challenges, Ripple continues to remain resilient, aiming to gain clarity during the final stages of the five-year-long lawsuit. Meanwhile, the XRP price, which is currently trading at $2.4, has experienced a recent uptick, increasing by almost 4% in the last day, according to CoinMarketCap.

The XRP market has experienced some significant bullish action in the past week with prices rising by 7.05%. Amidst this surge, popular market analyst Egrag Crypto has provided an interesting bullish prediction highlighting two potential price targets for the altcoin. Related Reading: Solana (SOL) Crashes 15% After Massive Profit-Taking Spike XRP Price Outlook: Analysts Eye $9.7 And $27 Breakout Targets In an X post on March 7, Egrag Crypto shared an audacious technical analysis of the XRP price action suggesting the altcoin may be gearing up for a major price upswing following recent gains. Egrag Crypto’s positive prediction is based on XRP’s potential ability to repeat a price surge from its 2017-2018 bull cycle. While past performance does not guarantee future results, the repeating nature of market cycles has led certain analysts to believe that XRP could experience another parabolic move. Notably, in early 2018, XRP moved from a breakout range of $0.35-$0.39 to a local market peak of around $2.89. However, for XRP to show any potential in validating a repeat of this price surge, market bulls must reclaim the $3.4 price level, which represents the local peak of the current bull cycle.  Using this price level as a reference point, Egrag Crypto identifies $9.7 as the first major price target for XRP, mirroring the midpoint of its 2017–2018 breakout. The analyst explains that for investors looking to take profit, it would be ideal to sell at or around this price level i.e. $8, $9, $10, rather than waiting for an exact market peak. The second, more intriguing target would happen if XRP produces an exact 718% price surge, suggesting a potential price target of approximately $27.

However, its daily trading volume has increased by 8.56% and is now valued at $8.63 billion.  In realizing Egrag Crypto’s bullish prediction, the altcoin must push past immediate resistance levels at $2.62 and $3.0 before a fated encounter at the $3.4 price barrier. Furthermore, there must be a significant increase in buying volume and market participation. Other potential bullish factors include a clear regulatory stance around XRP. While its addition to the US digital assets stockpile is a much-welcome development, a termination of the SEC’s appeal case against Ripple would erase all regulatory and legal concerns around XRP. Finally, a widescale bull run across the crypto market is another potential bullish driver. Notably, XRP was one of the best-performing crypto assets in the late Q4 2024 crypto rally, rising by over 460% in three weeks following the US elections.

The XRP market experienced a major rally in the last day following the SEC’s acknowledgment of Grayscale’s XRP ETF filling. According to data from CoinMarketCap, the prominent altcoin rose by 11% reaching a local peak of $2.81 before experiencing a significant retracement to $2.39. With XRP on the rise again, investors must note the asset must scale certain price barriers to validate its current bullish momentum. Related Reading: Ethereum Indicator Flashes Buy Signal On The Weekly Chart – Potential For A Rebound? XRP Must Move Past $3.40 To Retain Market Interest Popular market analyst Egrag Crypto has shared an intriguing analysis of the XRP market. In an X post on February 14, the crypto expert states that the third-largest cryptocurrency must achieve a strong close above $2.75 (marked in green) to sustain its current upward trend. Based on historical data, $2.75 has presented a significant resistance level. If XRP can close and hold above this price zone on its 4-hour trading chart,  it would indicate that buyers are gaining control of the market following a month of major price loss. Thereafter, the altcoin must attain another price close above $2.94 (marked in yellow)  which would suggest a higher bullish momentum with significant potential for new highs such as $3.22. For the XRP market, each confirmed close above these specified price levels strengthens the present bullish momentum.  However, Egrag Crypto warns that all price movement below the current bull rally peak of $3.40 will remain merely “noise” in the long run. The analyst warns that XRP must break above this psychological price level to confirm a certain trend shift in the upward direction.

XRP Market Overview  At press time, XRP trades at $2.73 following an aggregate 6.43% gain in the past 24 hours. The asset’s trading volume is up by 66.61% indicating a high level of interest from market participants. On its 7-day chart, XRP boasts 13.78% gains, reducing its monthly loss to around 8.39%.  Amidst its recent price retracement, community sentiments in the XRP market remain highly bullish, especially with the advancement of a potential XRP ETF. By acknowledging Grayscale’s ETF application, the SEC is allowed an initial review period of 45 days – potentially extensible to 240 days – to approve or reject the proposed ETF. With the implementation of the pro-crypto agenda of Donald Trump, investors are highly positive about an approval suggesting a potential influx of institutional capital as seen with the Bitcoin Spot ETFs.

XRP’s price action within the past seven days has been limited to a trading range as investors look to recover the losses they incurred at the beginning of February. This range is a consequence of the current indecisiveness on the XRP price. However, popular crypto analyst EGRAG CRYPTO has provided a detailed breakdown of XRP’s price trajectory from here. Particularly, the analyst highlighted crucial support and resistance levels that could determine XRP’s movement at each stage. XRP’s Lower Price Targets Indicate Key Support Levels Sharing his insights on X, EGRAG CRYPTO pointed out that recent price action suggests market manipulation was at play, liquidating leveraged traders before a rebound. His observation followed the sharp downturn in the first three days of February when XRP’s price dipped below $3 and found a temporary bottom at $2.12. Furthermore, this decline included a wick that caused a wave of liquidations among leveraged traders.  Related Reading: XRP Price Forms Bull Flag On 4-Hour Chart That Could Lead To Massive Breakout Above $2.46 However, the analyst maintains that as long as XRP remains above a certain blue channel on the XRP chart below, the outlook remains positive for its price trajectory. With this in mind, EGRAG CRYPTO provided a set of lower targets that serve as key support levels, emphasizing that closing below any of them could signal weakness. Although price wicks may occur, the analyst suggests that the integrity of the bullish structure remains intact as long as the XRP price does not close below these levels. These support levels are at $2.21, $2.00, $1.80, $1.74, and $1.60. A break and close below the lowest support at $1.60 could indicate a final shift in sentiment and cause a deeper price correction. Upper Targets Signal Potential Bullish Breakout On the bullish side, EGRAG CRYPTO outlined upper price targets that could confirm a strong breakout if XRP successfully closes above them. The analyst identified these targets as $2.62, $2.75, $2.94, $3.22, and $3.40. Notably, XRP had already traded above these price targets during this cycle and even closed above the first four targets in the daily timeframe. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Predicts XRP Price Will Be $5 By January, Reveals When Price Will Cross $10 EGRAG CRYPTO noted that the higher the price closes above these targets, the more bullish the outlook becomes, particularly over longer timeframes. A breakout and close above $3.40 would mark the first time the cryptocurrency has reached a new all-time high in over seven years. . Furthermore, the analyst price action within the $2 to $3.40 range might simply be market noise. Hence, sustained closes above the resistance levels are all the confirmation that’s needed. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.55, reflecting a 4.6% increase over the past 24 hours. This upward movement brings XRP closer to testing the first breakout target of $2.62.

Crypto pundit Investments CEO has provided a bullish case for the Dogecoin price, XRP, and Solana amid this market downtrend. He revealed his price targets for these cryptos, with each target marking a new all-time high (ATH) for them.  Dogecoin Price To Hit $1, XRP To $6 And Solana To $1,000 In an X post, Investments CEO predicted that the Dogecoin price will hit $1, while XRP and Solana will reach $6 and $1,000, respectively. These targets would mark a new ATH for the Dogecoin price, XRP, and Solana, whose current highs are $0.74, $3.3, and $294, respectively. Meanwhile, the analyst also predicted that the Bitcoin price would hit $150,000, which would also be a new all-time high for the flagship crypto. Related Reading: Catching The Next Quick 5X: Why The Dogecoin Price Should Be On Your Radar Based on these price targets, the crypto pundit asserted that market participants aren’t bullish enough. The Dogecoin price, XRP, and Solana reaching these targets undoubtedly provide a bullish outlook for the crypto market, which is currently witnessing a significant crash due to economic uncertainty.  The Dogecoin price has been one of the major caps that has taken the most hit, with a decline of over 25% in the last seven days. Meanwhile, XRP and Solana have declined over 22% and 17% respectively. It is worth mentioning that besides this crypto pundit, some other crypto analysts have also predicted that the Dogecoin price could soon reach the much-anticipated psychological $1 level. One of them is Master Kenobi, who highlighted similarities between the current DOGE price action and that of 2017.  Based on the similarities, the crypto analyst predicted that the Dogecoin price could witness a 6x increase from its current level and rally to as high as $1.25 soon enough. He added that DOGE could peak sometime in mid-April or May.  Crypto analysts have also made bullish cases for XRP and Solana. Crypto analyst Dark Defender predicted that the XRP price could rally to $8 soon enough. The analyst is also confident that XRP can reach $18 in this market cycle.  Meanwhile, crypto analyst Ali Martinez predicted that Solana could reach $350, while Van Eck stated that SOL could reach $500 by year-end.  What Next For These Coins Amid Downtrend In the meantime, crypto analysts have provided insights into what needs to happen for the Dogecoin price, XRP, and Solana to maintain their bullish outlook. In an X post, crypto analyst Kevin Capital stated that in the short term, DOGE needs to get back above $0.28 to see more upside. If that doesn’t happen, he remarked that the foremost meme coin is in danger of retesting the lows and maybe dropping to as low as $0.19.  Related Reading: XRP Price Eyes 40% Gains, Analyst Reveals The ‘Best Level’ To Buy And Hold For XRP, crypto analyst Egrag Crypto stated that the crypto needs to close above the 21 EMA at $2.67. He added that a close above $2.81 is essential for bullish momentum. Crypto analyst CasiTrades also suggested that XRP needs to reclaim $2.90 as a rejection at this level could lead to drop to $1.88 or $1.53.  For Solana, Ali Martinez stated that SOL needs to hold above the support at $196 to maintain the bullish projection of $350 for the crypto.

The XRP market experienced a downbeat end to January translating into a 7.05% loss over the past seven days. In regards to future price movements, popular analyst Egrag Crypto states the altcoin is currently at a key crossroads with an equal chance to move in either a positive or negative direction. Related Reading: Dogecoin Whales Go Ham As They Buy 560 Million DOGE In One Week  XRP Set For Price Breakout, But How High Can It Go? In an X post on February 1, Egrag Crypto explains that XRP’s recent slump has resulted in the asset retesting two crucial levels namely the 21 EMA and and the lowest boundary of a symmetric triangle. The exponential moving average (EMA) is a technical indicator that smoothens out price data over a period of days (i.e. 21 in this case) while giving more weight to recent prices. It is commonly used in trend confirmation with a price dip below the EMA line indicating a bearish trend and vice versa for a bullish trend. On the other hand, a symmetric triangle formed by price movement signals a period of consolidation before a decisive price breakout. With the price of XRP simultaneously hovering near the 21 EMA line and the lower boundary of the symmetric triangle around $2.93, the altcoin presents a rather delicate situation to traders and investors alike. According to Egrag Crypto, further declines for XRP are possible. However, prices are unlikely to fall below $2.83 ( the ascending purple line) which has served as a strong support zone based on historical data. However, based on the sole analysis of the symmetrical triangle, a break below the lower boundary could force XRP to trade as low as $2.40. Alternatively, should XRP break above the upper boundary of the triangle, it could immediately rally to $4. Egrag Crypto warns that both breakout possibilities are equally weighted. Therefore, the XRP market is subject to high levels of volatility over the coming days.

High selling activity especially from whales is a bearish signal that signals uncertainty about the future profitability of an asset. Alternatively, certain long-term holders may be looking to take profit. However, XRP retail investors may expect more price drops in the short term, barring the introduction of significant buying pressure. At press time, XRP trades at $2.93 reflecting a 3.10% decline in the past day. Meanwhile, the asset trading volume is down by 12.60% and valued at $4.06 billion.
