THE LATEST CRYPTO NEWS

XRP’s weekly structure has seldom looked as compressed as it does in the chart published this morning by independent analyst Maelius. The view pulls data from the BITSTAMP feed and applies a 50-period exponential moving average (EMA) in blue, currently tracking at roughly $1.78. This XRP Chart Screams 2017 Price is perched above that dynamic support zone at $2.25, adding 3.33% so far in the present weekly candle, and has spent the past four months knitting out what the analyst calls a “giga bull flag.” The flag is defined by a sequence of progressively lower weekly highs that stop just short of the $3.40 line and higher swing-lows that bottom near $1.61, creating a converging wedge whose lower edge and the rising EMA50 now coincide. Maelius overlays the 2017 XRP advance—scaled to the current log axis—to illustrate why the pattern matters. In the previous cycle the token erupted vertically once the flag was resolved, blasting from sub-dollar prices to a peak above $3.00 in a matter of weeks. Related Reading: XRP Sell-Off Rumors Swirl After Expert Questions Ripple’s War Chest The black schematic sketched on the right-hand margin recreates that move and projects it forward: once consolidation ends, the fractal implies a breakout first through the $4 shelf and ultimately into the double-digit territory. The label “XRP 2017” is pinned to the $19 mark, the level where the composite trace tops out on this overlay. Momentum data beneath the chart reinforce the comparison. The weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI) printed two pronounced peaks in the 2017 run, separated by a flat plateau; Maelius has marked those crests “1” and “2” on both the historical section and the current range. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Says XRP Community Should Pay Attention To June 4-6, Here’s Why The first modern-cycle surge sent RSI briefly into the high-80s earlier this year and has since cooled back toward the mid-40s, a zone the analyst shades “FLAT.” An arrow then extends toward the mid-90s, signalling that Maelius expects at least one more momentum pulse before the structure is exhausted. From a purely technical perspective the most immediate levels to watch are the upper flag boundary near $2.50 and the EMA-anchored support around $1.80. A weekly close above the former would complete the flag and open the way to the $4.40 and $6.00 horizontals visible on the price scale, while a decisive break below $1.80 would invalidate the pattern and leave the market leaning on the $1.30 cluster where the EMA turned higher last year. Crucially, the analyst frames his outlook in risk-aware terms: even the “worst-case” scenario he sketches still includes one final impulse wave. “Worst case is there is only 1 impulse left. Bearish, right?!” he writes. As always, traders will be looking for confirmation from volume and broader market sentiment before treating the fractal as more than an instructive historical rhyme, but the chart makes clear that a single weekly candle settling above the $2.50 handle could be all it takes to remind participants of how quickly XRP has moved in the past. At press time, XRP traded at $2.23. Featured image created with DALLE, chart from TradingView.com

XRP’s price is now looking to break above $2.20 again after inching a few moves upwards in the past 24 hours. Notably, the cryptocurrency’s price action has seen a volatile movement over the past week. After briefly rallying above $2.65 earlier in May, XRP failed to sustain its momentum, instead trending downwards until it rebounded at $2.10 on the last day of May. Amid this backdrop of price action, there have been discussions around the timing for the next major price movement for XRP. A fresh outlook by a crypto analyst suggests XRP investors should pay attention to June 3 to June 6. Crypto Analyst Predicts Timeline For XRP Bottom And Breakout A crypto analyst known pseudonymously as WatersAbove has drawn attention to specific calendar dates that could play important roles in XRP’s short-term and long-term price trajectories. Taking to the social media platform X to share his outlook, the analyst suggested that June 4th to 6th could mark the bottom for XRP before there is any significant upside.  Related Reading: Wave Count Analysis Reveals The XRP Price Trigger Point For Take-Off However, aside from this bottom, what’s more important is the potential price manipulation that could take place within this period. According to the crypto analyst, this particular window between June 3 and June 6 will likely be characterized by market manipulation, as larger players may be attempting to shake out weak hands ahead of a more decisive rally. “In the meantime, watch out for this week ahead,” the analyst said. Although WatersAbove did not accompany the prediction with any technical chart, the confidence in his tone resonates among XRP investors who are closely watching these dates for signals of a bottom, as shown in the post’s comments. Straight Line Breakout To $10 For XRP What made the analyst’s prediction even more interesting was the projected price target and timing after the manipulation is over. According to the analyst, XRP could be on a straight-line trajectory to $10 by late July or early August, nearly a 5x move from current levels. This kind of breakout, if it occurs, would mirror XRP’s explosive run in Q4 2024 and also back in 2018. However, this time would require much more inflows that can be gotten from institutional backing. Related Reading: XRP Price Consolidates In Tight Bullish Compression Pattern, Why $5 Is Possible Interestingly, the analyst’s prediction is that the rally will start sometime around June 18 in a straight-line breakout manner. Although the prediction is bold, it’s not the first time such a target has been floated by long-time XRP supporters.  According to a similar analysis by EGRAG CRYPTO, XRP is on the verge of a breakout to double digits in the coming months. Crypto analyst Dark Defender also highlighted a new wave structure that could send the XRP price towards the $18.22 to $23.20 price range in the short term. On the other hand, crypto analysts like Dr Cat (@DoctorCatX) are less bullish. Notably, the analyst’s technical analysis suggests that any bull run for XRP might be delayed until November 2025. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.20, up by 1.63% in the past 24 hours. A surge to the analyst’s $10 price target would translate to a 350% increase from the current price.

CoinRoutes chief executive Dave Weisberger detonated a fresh round of anxiety in the XRP market on Monday when he asked, on Scott Melker’s podcast, whether Ripple Labs could finance a takeover of Circle “for $10 to $20 billion” without off-loading roughly $10 billion in XRP. “Who’s going to buy the $10 billion worth of XRP they would need to sell out of their treasury?” Weisberger said, warning that a sudden supply surge could overwhelm order books and “hammer the price.” Is A XRP Sell-Off Conceivable? Within hours, pro-XRP attorney Fred Rispoli fired back on X. “I love @daveweisberger1, but on this point he is mcgloning so hard,” he wrote, invoking Bloomberg strategist Mike McGlone’s reputation for bearish hyperbole. “Just based on what I’m getting offered for my Ripple shares on the secondary market, I don’t think Ripple would even have to sell one XRP to buy Circle.” Rispoli agreed that Ripple cannot raise $10 billion in pure cash, yet insisted the company could “easily afford the acquisition for a mix of cash and debt” and a heavy equity-swap. Related Reading: $3 XRP Dream Delayed—No Bull Run Before November, Says Top Analyst When Weisberger replied that Circle’s board would likely demand hard dollars unless it accepted Ripple equity or XRP “without a haircut,” Rispoli dug in. “No way to get $10B in cash—and $10B is too high anyway,” he wrote, citing late-2024 private-research valuations that placed Ripple at $15 billion excluding its ~36 billion escrowed XRP. If Circle’s price tag fell to $7–9 billion, he said, Ripple could close with “$1–3 billion cash on hand, a heavy stock exchange, and debt,” especially with “all that GCC money sloshing around crypto world right now.” Rispoli conceded it would be “a reach” but “doable without meaningfully selling XRP.” Weisberger acknowledged the math—“That’s a reasonable analysis,” he wrote—yet cautioned that any price at the upper end of Rispoli’s range “could be some short-term pain for us XRP holders.” Ripple’s tender-offer buyback in January 2024 valued the company at $11.3 billion, disclosing more than $1 billion in cash and about $25 billion in digital assets—mostly XRP—on its books. The firm still controls roughly 52 billion XRP (about 40 percent of supply), though 36 billion sit in timed escrow releases, limiting immediate access. At today’s $2.20 spot price, the spendable portion is worth a little under $35 billion, but moving even a fraction quickly would collide with thin venue depth—a point Weisberger hammered home. Related Reading: Wave Count Analysis Reveals The XRP Price Trigger Point For Take-Off Ripple’s cash pile also shrank after its $1.25 billion purchase of prime broker Hidden Road in April, a deal settled with a blend of cash, equity and RLUSD stablecoins. That acquisition suggests the company prefers hybrid structures, bolstering Rispoli’s claim that Treasury XRP need not flood the market. Is Circle Even For Sale? The debate may be academic. Circle, issuer of USDC, has repeatedly declared it “not for sale” while marching toward a New York Stock Exchange listing that now targets a $7.2 billion valuation. Ripple’s rumored approach earlier this spring reportedly topped $5 billion, well below Weisberger’s stress case and within Rispoli’s “doable” band, but Circle rebuffed the talks and updated its S-1 two weeks later, enlarging the float rather than seeking a buyer. Strategically, Ripple already fields its own dollar-token RLUSD, launched in January and positioned by president Monica Long as “complementary to XRP, not a competitor.” Absorbing USDC’s issuer would instantly rocket Ripple towards the size of Tether. Even under Rispoli’s optimistic structure, Ripple might still need to liquidate several hundred million dollars’ worth of XRP for working capital and closing costs. At current volumes, unloading just 500 million XRP (≈ $1.1 billion) would equal half a week of global turnover—enough to distort price unless executed as private blocks. At press time, XRP traded at $2.19. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

The XRP price may be on the verge of a significant breakout, according to a new wave count analysis combining the Elliott Wave Theory and the Wyckoff reaccumulation principles. After months of sideways trading and corrective movement, analysts have pinpointed a critical price level that could serve as a trigger point for XRP’s next leg higher.  XRP Price Primed For Major Lift-Off From This Level A new analysis published by crypto analyst the ‘Charting Prodigy’ on X (formerly Twitter) suggests that the XRP price is following a clear Elliott Wave structure that began forming after the April lows this year. The price has completed Wave 1 of a new impulse cycle, followed by a WXY corrective Wave 2.  Related Reading: XRP Price Risks Crash Below $2 As Correction Takes Hold, Here’s Why Recent price action also indicates that XRP is now entering sub-wave 3 of Macro Wave 5, which is typically the most powerful and extended wave in the cycle. The standout detail of Charting Prodigy’s analysis is the identified trigger level at $2.56. According to the expert’s analysis, a confirmed breakout above this critical trigger point could signal the start of a rapid markup phase, potentially propelling XRP toward the $2.9 to $3.4 range. The significance of this bullish target is supported by not only the Elliott Wave analysis but also the Wyckoff reaccumulation, Fibonacci extension targets, and the emergence of a bullish divergence forming on the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Notably, the analyst points to a classic Wyckoff accumulation structure taking shape on the XRP price chart. He identified key phases such as Preliminary Support (PSY), Automatic Rally (AR), and Secondary Test (ST). The structure also included a “spring” phase and, most recently, a Last Point of Support (LPS).  The emergence of these Wyckoff elements suggests that XRP has completed its reaccumulation and has entered the aforementioned markup phase, where price tends to go parabolic. The combination of these technical indicators and chart patterns also indicates that $2.65 is the level to watch as XRP makes its way up to price levels close to its former ATH.  XRP Set For Double-Digit Target In 2 Weeks  According to a new chart analysis by crypto analyst Egrag Crypto, XRP may be on the verge of a historic breakout. Presenting a 2-week price chart, the analyst highlights a macro bullish formation that could push XRP into double-digit territory—targeting $10, $18, $27, and even a whopping $55 in the months ahead. Related Reading: XRP Holds Midline Support That Has Led To Breakout In The Past, Why $2.9 Could Be Next Egrag Crypto’s chart draws attention to a long-standing macro ascending channel that XRP has respected since 2016. Past breakouts from similar setups have historically delivered exponential gains for the cryptocurrency.  The key trigger, according to the analysis, is a decisive move above the 21-week timeframe. This same signal preceded XRP’s explosive rally in 2017 when it surged from under 1 cent to an all-time high of $3.84. Notably, the analysis emphasizes the importance of remaining within this macro ascending channel, indicating that as long as the lower trendline holds and the 21 EMA is breached, XRP’s bullish case remains intact.  Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

The daily XRP chart has slipped back into a state of suspended animation just when bulls needed decisive follow-through, according to the Ichimoku-centric assessment shared by crypto strategist Dr Cat (@DoctorCatX). “I would be surprised to see $3, let alone ATH in June,” the analyst wrote after posting the chart, lamenting that “the window of opportunity was missed” for both the dollar and Bitcoin pairs. XRP Bulls Miss Their Shot The chart Dr Cat circulated shows XRP-USD grinding along the lower edge of the kumo around $2.14 after a failed attempt to reclaim the flat Kijun-sen that has flattened near $2.35. Price action pierced the cloud top in early May on robust volume, but follow-through stalled and the token has now printed two consecutive closes back inside the cloud. The Tenkan-sen has curled beneath the Kijun-sen, signalling waning short-term momentum, while the Chikou span (lagging line) is trapped in overlapping candles—classic signs of neutrality rather than outright weakness, yet miles away from the bullish alignment required for an explosive trend. Dr Cat argues that Ichimoku bull markets do not emerge spontaneously; they “take a lot of time and effort,” typically at least one full 26-period rotation, to rebuild after a failed attack. “If the window of opportunity is missed and these conditions are not utilized, it’s not a good sign,” he cautioned, adding that the most optimistic scenario now implies “at least 1 standard 26-candles cycle to retry.” On a daily chart that translates to roughly a month, leaving any breakout attempt realistically postponed to July or August and, if momentum continues to lag, potentially November. Related Reading: XRP Multi-Timeframe Breakdown: Here’s What Comes Next Lower-timeframe data paint a harsher picture. The analyst points to “consistent selling pressure on lower medium timeframes without any sign of strength,” noting that XRP/BTC has sunk to the 2041-satoshi monthly support and is failing to bounce. The 2041 level—the exact value where the cloud thins dramatically later in the year—has become the fulcrum for Dr Cat’s broader thesis: if it holds through summer, the token could launch a thinner-cloud break in November when “the XRPBTC kumo is very thin and easy to break.” The medium-term stakes are clear on the weekly template, where Dr Cat says “there is nothing bullish.” The weekly kumo is widening in front of price, while the Tenkan-Kijun bear cross remains unresolved. Because trend-following traders typically want to see candle bodies and the Chikou span clear both the cloud and historical price structure, the current setup offers few immediate catalysts. Even so, the monthly view retains a more constructive look on the USD pair—a reminder that secular strength is not altogether lost, merely dormant. In the near term, the analyst sees a real danger of cascading toward $1.89, a price zone that coincides with the flat bottom of April’s cloud twist and a visible shelf of historical volume accumulation. Should that level give way, the chart offers scant support until the $1.70 region where the March spike tail began. Related Reading: XRP Set To Explode—But Only After This Plunge, Analyst Says Despite the downbeat tone Dr Cat stops short of declaring a bear market. “The good news is that 3D is still NOT ready to trend bearish at all on the USD pair,” he wrote, underscoring that closing prices have not yet delivered a decisive shift below the three-day Kijun-sen. If the token can hold cloud support into July, another push toward the upper cloud boundary near $2.40 could materialise. Only a clean break above that level, accompanied by a bullish Tenkan-Kijun cross and a Chikou span that punches above historical price, would force a reassessment of the $3 ceiling before year-end. For now, however, the roadmap remains one of patience. “All in all, my most bullish case expectation for June is neutral price action below ATH,” Dr Cat reiterated, positioning November—when the cloud on the XRP/BTC pair narrows to its thinnest width in years—as the next credible launch window. Until then, traders eyeing a resurgence must watch that 2041-satoshi floor and be prepared for several more weeks of sideways drift—or a sudden downside probe toward $1.89—before the larger trend declares its verdict. At press time, XRP traded at $2.17. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

XRP is once again under the spotlight as its price action shows signs of weakening across multiple timeframes. After a brief period of relative stability, recent breakdowns on the daily and intraday charts suggest a shift in market momentum that traders can’t ignore. As bearish pressure mounts and critical support levels begin to falter, XRP’s next move has become a major topic – will it find its footing soon, or is a deeper correction on the horizon? The XRP Key Bullish Divergence In an X update, prominent crypto analyst Gowanus Monster highlighted a critical technical development for XRP. According to his analysis, the token has completed a bearish Descending Triangle formation across multiple timeframes, a classic pattern that often signals continuation to the downside. Based on the measured move from this structure, the projected target is around $1.90, suggesting a potentially significant retracement if bearish momentum continues to build. Related Reading: XRP Price Slips Again — Is a Deeper Correction Underway? Zooming out to the weekly chart, the pattern is beginning to evolve into a well-defined structure, with clear upper and lower boundaries. Gowanus Monster noted that the current focus lies on identifying a higher low within this channel.  He also pointed to a key principle: when a price rebound from the upper boundary of a descending channel fails to reach the lower boundary, instead bottoming out early, it often precedes a bullish breakout to the upside. This nuanced behavior, if confirmed, may set the stage for XRP to defy the current bearish structure and ignite a fresh rally beyond the confines of its channel. Bear Trap Scenario: When Oversold Meets Demand According to crypto analyst GemXBT, XRP remains firmly entrenched in a short-term downtrend, with price action currently trading below the 5, 10, and 20-period moving averages. This alignment of moving averages is a classic sign of sustained bearish momentum, suggesting that sellers continue to dominate the market in the near term. Related Reading: XRP Price Confirms Bullish Reversal Setup With This Demand Zone Presently, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has dipped into the oversold zone, suggesting an imminent reversal or a period of consolidation as the market seeks equilibrium. Meanwhile, the MACD line remains below the signal line, indicating that downside pressure persists, and any potential recovery could face headwinds. From a price structure standpoint, GemXBT identified key support around $2.15, which could serve as a critical level for buyers to step in and defend. On the upside, resistance lies near $2.25, a zone that bulls would need to reclaim in order to shift short-term sentiment. The recent uptick in trading volume is worth noting, as it could introduce more volatility in the sessions ahead, either accelerating a breakdown if support fails or fueling a sharp recovery if sentiment flips.

The recent price action for XRP has shown little sign of strength as the crypto is now battling sustained bearish pressure. Since the start of the correction phase on May 12, XRP has posted consecutive lower highs on the daily timeframe, slipping further from its May peak of $2.65. This ongoing decline comes after a rally that started last month, which saw the XRP price rebound from $1.80 in early April.  However, the momentum that drove that surge has now been overtaken by a clear wave of red candles, and technical analysis suggests that the XRP price can crash below $2 again in the coming days to the April low. MasterAnanda Flags Risk Of Further XRP Downside A recent technical update shared by analyst MasterAnanda on TradingView reinforces the short-term bearish sentiment. The chart shared alongside the analysis shows XRP has broken down from a rising channel, with three consecutive daily closes below the lower trendline. Related Reading: Analysts Are Predicting XRP Price To Climb Above $20 In Unexpected Rally These three consecutive red days have rejected the setup of an upwards bounce on the lower trendline. Although XRP is still trading above $2 right now, the longer it continues to trade below the $2.30 region, the more likely a steeper drop becomes. In his analysis on TradingView, the analyst MasterAnanda acknowledged that XRP may appear due for a rebound, but the underlying signals tell a different story. “It looks like XRPUSDT can recover any minute now, but the correction might not be over,” the analyst noted.  Interestingly, despite the ongoing decline, bearish volume has been quite low. This shows that the selling may not be particularly strong, but also not challenged. This low-volume pullback suggests the market is drifting down due to a lack of buyers rather than intense selling pressure. Even so, the analyst noted that XRP has yet to reach a solid support level. XRP Bullish Long-Term, But Can Crash Below $2 Although the short-term chart paints a troubling picture, MasterAnanda is confident in XRP’s bullish trajectory in the long term. However, the Fibonacci retracement levels marked on the chart show that the price has already dropped through the 0.382 zone and is hovering near the 0.236 line at $2.035. Beneath that, the low near $1.75 is the critical area to watch, which aligns with the analyst’s projected support zone. Related Reading: Can XRP Market Cap Touch $1.5 Trillion? Analyst Reveals The Math Behind It If XRP fails to hold above $2.00, it could slip toward that higher low. A red arrow drawn on the daily candlestick timeframe chart shows the trajectory of this decline. As such, XRP traders should prepare for the possibility of a strong downside unless a strong reversal happens before the crypto breaks below $2.  XRP’s bearish sentiment is gradually intensifying. If this correction continues unchecked, a retest of the $1.70 to $1.80 range may come sooner than expected. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.13, down by 3.85% in the past 24 hours and 8.9% in the past seven days. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has highlighted a bullish candle formation, which could send the XRP price to as high as $22. This comes just as the analyst predicted that the altcoin could hit a $1.5 trillion market. XRP Price Eyes Rally To $22 As Bullish Candle Forms  In an X post, Egrag Crypto predicted that candle 13 on the yearly chart could be the breakout candle that sends the XRP price to $13 or $22. He also raised the possibility of the altcoin surging above these price levels, with a wick extending even higher. Based on his analysis of Candle 9, the 2021 yearly candle, the analyst noted that Candle 13 points to a target of around $17.  Related Reading: XRP Holds Midline Support That Has Led To Breakout In The Past, Why $2.9 Could Be Next Egrag Crypto remarked that this aligns perfectly between $13 and $22 for the XRP price. He also commented on Candle 12, noting that it was the strongest Bullish Engulfing pattern. This engulfing process started from Candle 5 and continued through Candle 11. The analyst added that the body of these candles closed above all previous candles, which is a “classic bullish sign.” It is even more bullish when it occurs on a yearly or 12-month chart, as in this case.  Commenting on the current XRP price action, Egrag Crypto stated that the noise is still loud on the high timeframes. He noted that the body of Candle 13 is above $1.85, and the wick extends up to around $3.40. The analyst claimed that a close below $1.85 could mark the end of the bull run, while a close above $3.40 confirms that XRP is heading to double digits.  Interestingly, the crypto analyst declared that December 31 this year will be a date to remember in XRP history. He remarked that market participants will see where the XRP price stands and what kind of candle formations are shaping up for the legendary year.  XRP At A Critical Level In an X post, Crypto analyst CasiTrades noted that the XRP price has returned to the $2.25 range, which is one of the most important levels on the chart. She stated that this zone has acted as both resistance and support since the $0.50 breakout, and now a proper backtest is underway.  Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Predicts XRP Price Could Shoot To $12 Soon The analyst revealed that the smaller timeframes show that this level could hold. However, she warned that higher-timeframe confirmation is key and that the XRP price needs daily closes above $2.25 to confirm a bullish pivot. CasiTrades added that whether or not this is the final pivot, this level remains a high-probability zone for buyers. She noted that the next major support is at $1.90 if this $2.25 support fails.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.21, down almost 3% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has made a bold prediction that the XRP price can hit a $1.5 trillion market cap. He revealed how the altcoin can achieve this milestone by alluding to technical indicators, which show the measured move from this current market cap to a $1.5 trillion market cap.  How The XRP Price Can Reach $1.5 Trillion Market Cap In an X post, Egrag Crypto stated that the Logarithmic move could send the XRP price to around $1.5 trillion market cap, exceeding the Fib 1.618 by approximately $500 billion. Meanwhile, the Non-Logarithmic move will put the altcoin at around $270 billion, aligning with the Fib 1.618.  Related Reading: XRP Price Flashes Signal That Triggered 600% Rally In November 2024 The crypto analyst remarked that he sees two potential growth levels by measuring the previous cycle, the move from Fib 1.0 to Fib 1.618. Based on this, he predicts a 242% increase and a 600% increase. He then highlighted the four possible targets from the lowest to the highest. The first is the projected XRP price rally to a $270 billion market cap in line with the non-logarithmic measured move.  The second target is a 242% XRP price rally to a $450 billion market cap, backing the previous cycle’s move from Fib 1.0 to Fib 1.618. The third target is another 242% rally to a $978 billion market cap. Meanwhile, the rally to a $1.5 trillion market cap is the last target, with the Non-Log W pattern measured move for maximum potential.  Egrag Crypto highlighted what the XRP price could be based on its current circulating supply of 58.68 billion if it reaches these market cap targets. The altcoin’s price will be $4.60, $7.66, and $16.65 if it reaches the $270 billion, $450 billion, and $978 billion market caps, respectively. Meanwhile, XRP will hit $25.56 if it reaches the $1.5 trillion market cap milestone.  Another Analysis To Support This Price Projection In another X post, Egrag Crypto predicted that the XRP price can reach between $13 and $22 based on his analysis of the altcoin’s yearly chart. He stated that candle 13 will be the breakout candle, which will lead to the rally to $13 or $22, with the wick potentially extending even higher.  Related Reading: XRP Price Confirms Bullish Reversal Setup With This Demand Zone He noted that by analyzing Candle 9, the 2021 yearly candle, and its full body move of an 800% gain, applying this increase to Candle 13 points to an XRP price target of around $17. He added that this aligns perfectly between Line 1 at $13 and Line 2 at $22. It is worth mentioning that Egrag Crypto has also predicted that the altcoin could rally to $27 in 60 days, aligning with the $1.5 trillion market cap projection.   At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.28, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

XRP may be on the verge of a major upside breakout—but only after what crypto analyst Quantum Ascent describes as a necessary and temporary correction. In a new video analysis published on May 28, the seasoned trader warned that a drop toward the $2.13 level appears increasingly likely, but emphasized that such a move fits within a larger bullish Elliott Wave structure and would not invalidate the macro setup. XRP Set To Plunge Before Exploding Higher? “I said $2.71 was on deck—and we hit $2.66,” Quantum Ascent recalled, referencing a prediction made earlier in May. “I was five cents off. But now, it looks like we’re in a bit of a correction. I’m a little thrown off by the wave count here.” The confusion, he explained, stems from the structure of what appears to be a completed five-wave move. While the third wave in an Elliott Wave pattern is typically the longest, the analyst noted inconsistencies in the current formation that warrant a deeper technical review. Still, the overall structure—particularly on the weekly chart—remains intact. “You can see one-two-three-four-five on the weekly,” he said. “That’s printing a macro one-two. And the third wave should get us going here out of this area.” Related Reading: XRP Bull Flag Targets $18: Analyst Sees 70% Chance Of Breakout Zooming into the 12-hour and daily timeframes, Quantum Ascent pointed to an ABC corrective pattern now likely unfolding, with the C wave projected to equal the A wave in length. According to his measurement, this points to a downside target of $2.12–$2.13, which aligns with the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level drawn from the previous impulse wave and also coincides with the fourth wave of the prior move—often a zone of strong support. “For me, that looks really good as a spot for us to kind of chill out. Maybe consolidate sideways a little bit,” he said. “But I do expect the next move to be up.” He was adamant that a breakdown below $2.13 would not constitute a structural failure: “I find it really hard to think XRP’s gonna go below $2 here on this move. It could technically—and still nothing would be broken. We’re still just looking for a one-two, and the two could come down here if it wanted.” Related Reading: XRP To $12: Analyst Reveals What Could Trigger The Breakout Quantum Ascent also highlighted XRP’s comparative strength relative to the broader crypto market, noting that it had recently set a higher high earlier than most altcoins. “Structurally on the larger time frame, XRP is holding up a lot stronger than the rest of the market.” The analyst, who disclosed that he originally bought XRP around $0.50 and sold a large portion above $3, said he remains long-term bullish and continues to hold XRP as a core part of his portfolio. “This thing has been good to me,” he said. “Again, I see a drop down temporarily—but it’s just that. It’s temporary.” For now, all eyes remain on the $2.13 level. If XRP holds that zone and confirms support, Quantum Ascent believes a new bullish wave 4 could soon begin—one that takes the token above the $2.80 mark. At press time, XRP traded at $2.29.

A crypto analyst has predicted that the XRP price could surge to remarkable levels, ranging from $25 to $75, in June. According to the expert, a combination of key bullish factors is expected to drive this significant price rally, potentially marking new all-time highs for the altcoin. In a rather lengthy post on X (formerly Twitter), a crypto analyst known as ‘The Real Redmi Relief’ outlined a series of critical events scheduled for June and July 2025 that will serve as powerful catalysts for driving the XRP price to unprecedented levels between the $25 – $75 range.  Catalyst Events Fueling XRP Price Next Surge Firstly, Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, is expected to roll out X payments, making XRP more useful in real-world terms and driving global adoption—especially if it is included as a digital currency option within the platform. Alongside this, the analyst views the introduction of the “Genius Act” in June as a game-changing regulatory development. This newly proposed bill could bring well-needed clarity for and possibly ease restrictions surrounding digital assets, potentially eliminating adoption barriers for XRP.  Related Reading: $10,000 XRP Theory: Factors Analyst Shares Scenarios That Could Drive Growth Another catalytic event that could drive the XRP price toward the analyst’s bullish target is the ongoing US SEC lawsuit, which is expected to reach a critical juncture in June. The resolution or a positive outcome in this case could eliminate years of regulatory uncertainty that previously suppressed XRP’s growth.  Looking ahead from June to August, the anticipated approval and launch of XRP Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) is another key driver. These ETFs would require fund managers to hold large quantities of XRP, creating substantial institutional demand. Given the relatively limited XRP supply available on exchanges, the market expert expects this increased demand to trigger a possible supply squeeze that would intensify upward price pressure.  The final catalyst event that would push the altcoin toward $25 – $75 is the ISO 20022 messaging standard. The Real Redmi Relief has revealed that this electronic data exchange framework is set to be implemented in July, potentially pushing XRP more deeply into global payment infrastructures.  Market Dynamics And Sentiment To Boost The Altcoin Outlook Beyond upcoming bullish events that could drive XRP’s price higher, the analyst offers a broader perspective on the cryptocurrency’s market dynamics and investor sentiment, which could also contribute to its projected rally. The analyst emphasized that the “delay game,” which previously stalled progress on key developments, including ISO 20022, XRP ETF approval, and SEC regulatory clarity, is now effectively over.  Related Reading: XRP Price Surge To $10: Analyst Reveals Factors That Will Make It Happen In 2025 With multiple positive triggers converging around the same time frame, market participants could experience heightened FOMO, especially among institutional investors eager to capitalize on the potential upside. Notably, the analyst warns of possible manipulation practices on exchanges during this expected bullish run.  He cautioned that some XRP might be sold off behind the scenes, resulting in withdrawal delays and various account issues. These tactics, as he claims, are part of a recurring pattern seen during past crypto market rallies, where large players accumulate assets at the expense of retail investors.

XRP has achieved another impressive milestone with the Dubai Land Department’s announcement of a $16 billion real estate tokenization project on the XRP Ledger (XRPL). This development has been lauded as one of the factors that could spark an XRP price rally. XRP Records Milestone With New Dubai Land Department Project In a press release, Ctrl Alt revealed that it has partnered with Dubai Land Department (DLD) to develop a secure and compliant tokenization framework. The project will focus on structuring, minting, and tokenizing real estate deeds on the blockchain. The release also mentioned that the XRP Ledger has been chosen for the tokenization project, representing a huge achievement for the XRP ecosystem. Related Reading: Is There A “Secret XRP Ledger” And Is The Price Really At $1,000? Ctrl Alt noted that the XRP Ledger is a decentralized layer-1 blockchain, which is renowned for its decade-long reliability and stability in tokenizing and exchanging digital and real-world assets. This move is expected to further enhance the network’s utility and ultimately increase demand for XRP, the network’s native token.  Ripple Executive Reece Merrick commented on the development, noting that the Dubai Land Department forecasts a $16 billion tokenized real estate market by 2033. This represents 7% of total property transactions, which would be processed on the XRP Ledger.  Pro-XRP lawyer John Deaton also commented on this milestone. In an X post, he remarked that people fail to realize that the XRP Ledger, which was created in 2012, has the world’s first decentralized exchange (DEX). He added that this DEX was designed for RWA tokenization, such as real estate, indicating that the XRPL is the perfect choice for the DLD.  Crypto analyst Cryptoinsight highlighted how bullish this milestone is for the XRP price, predicting that it could be one of the catalysts that sparks a rally to $12. This will mark a new all-time high (ATH) for the altcoin.  Other Recent Milestones For XRP And The XRP Ledger XRP has recorded some other milestones in the last week. Brazil’s Braza Group announced that its new USD-backed stablecoin, USDB, will launch on the XRP Ledger. This will give individuals and institutions a seamless and secure way to move value across borders. It is worth mentioning that Braza had already launched the BBRL, a Real-backed stablecoin, on the XRP Ledger earlier this year.  Related Reading: XRP Price At $10-$20 Only The Beginning, It’s Headed For $1,000 – Analyst Reveals Meanwhile, Schuman Financial’s EURØP became the first MiCA-compliant euro stablecoin on the XRP Ledger last week. Ripple noted that this is a key step toward compliant stablecoin adoption, enabling payments, tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), and on-chain finance in the European market. Mayukha Vadari, a software engineer at Ripple, has also teased a number of exciting new features coming soon to the XRP Ledger. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.30, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Independent market technician EGRAG CRYPTO posted an updated weekly XRP/USD chart on X. The visual, built on Bitfinex data, frames the entire post-July 2024 advance by XRP as the flag-pole of a classic bull-flag continuation pattern and argues that the subsequent ten-week drift has traced out a near-textbook, downward-slanted consolidation channel whose upper and lower rails are highlighted in magenta. XRP Poised For Breakout “The success rate of breaking upwards is around 67–70 percent,” the analyst writes, citing bulk pattern-recognition studies that underpin the set-up’s statistical edge. XRP is trading near $2.30, a value marked on the chart by a blue dotted horizontal line intersecting the body of the flag. Related Reading: XRP To $12: Analyst Reveals What Could Trigger The Breakout Beneath that, a white line at $1.50 records the late-2024 breakout shelf that now functions as first higher-time-frame support, while a deeper red horizontal at roughly $0.60 flags the base from which the current cycle began. Threading up through the entire structure is a rising yellow moving average—visually consistent with the 20-week EMA (currently at $2.21)—underscoring what Egrag calls the market’s “still-positive long-term trend bias.” From that foundation the technician derives three measured-move objectives. “For long-term breakouts I prefer logarithmic charts, especially in crypto, because of its exponential growth over short periods,” he explained. On that basis a log-scale projection extrapolates the full height of the flag-pole and lands at $18.00. A linear projection, which treats each dollar of advance equally, prints a markedly lower $5.50. Taking what he describes as a “liquidity-adjusted average — my preferred method for crypto targets,” Egrag settles on $11.75. Related Reading: Analyst Shows 3-Cycle Ride For XRP Price To Reach $46 Because digital-asset order books remain relatively thin, the analyst overlays a variability band of fifteen to twenty percent, stretching the log target to roughly $20.70–$21.60, the average to $13.51–$14.10 and the linear to $6.33–$6.60. “I usually apply a 15–20 percent variability because crypto liquidity is still smaller compared to legacy markets, so targets can extend both ways,” he cautioned. A disclaimer printed directly on the graphic reiterates that the numbers and targets are “for simulation purposes only and not financial advice.” Even so, the roadmap is clear for Egrag: so long as XRP defends the mid-flag zone near $2.30 and, critically, the structural pivot at $1.50, the technician contends that an eventual breakout could vault the token into double-digit territory, with the headline log objective sitting just beneath the psychologically resonant $20 handle. At press time, XRP traded at $2.28, still hovering just below the upper trendline of the bull flag. A close above the resistance could accelerate the XRP price quickly towards the 0.5 and 0.618 Fibonacci retracement levels at $2.50 and $2.71 respectively.

Crypto analyst Cryptoinsight has provided a bullish outlook for the XRP price, predicting that it could soon rally to as high as $12. He alluded to fundamentals and technicals, which could spark this parabolic rally.  What Could Spark The XRP Price Rally To $12 In a YouTube video, Cryptoinsight highlighted the Dubai Land Department’s recent move to launch a tokenization platform on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) as one of the catalysts that could spark the XRP price rally to $12. He also mentioned other recent partnerships and major moves Ripple has made as factors that could contribute to the price surge.   Related Reading: $10,000 XRP Theory: Factors Analyst Shares Scenarios That Could Drive Growth One is the crypto firm’s acquisition of the prime broker Hidden Road, which is expected to boost the XRP Ledger’s utility. This is ultimately bullish for the XRP price as the network’s native token. The crypto analyst also mentioned the alleged link between Hidden Road and the DTCC, which enables the prime broker to process trillions of dollars in US Treasury trades daily.  Cryptoinsight also noted that Ripple has acquired a payments license in Dubai, which is bullish for the XRP price, since it is the native token of the crypto firm’s payment services. He alluded to reports of the crypto firm allegedly looking to acquire USDC issuer Circle and the XRP ETFs, whose approval odds continue to soar.  Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse recently discussed crypto ETFs, which the analyst believes could be a hint that these ETFs will be approved soon. Lastly, he mentioned the XRP lawsuit as another event that could be a catalyst if the long-running legal battle ends soon. Cryptoinsight predicts that the XRP price rally to $12 could happen in the next few months.  From a technical perspective, he also highlighted bullish indicators like a bull flag that had formed on XRP’s weekly chart. The crypto analyst stated that momentum is starting to reverse to the upside and that buyers could step in soon.  The Altcoin On The Verge Of A Local Low In an X post, crypto analyst CasiTrades stated that the XRP price hasn’t made a local low yet but is on the verge of doing that. She remarked that all signs point to a retest of the $2.25 to $2.26 zone. The analyst added that this is a major structural support that aligns with the macro .382 retracement and has been a key level for the last six months.  Related Reading: XRP Price Explosion To $5.9: Current Consolidation Won’t Stop XRP From Growing If that support zone holds, she claimed it could mark the base for a new wave toward $2.70. However, if it breaks, the deeper support levels at $1.90 and $1.55 would come back into focus, meaning that the altcoin could still drop below the psychological $2 level before the next leg up.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.30, down almost 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

The latest webcast from the market commentator known as Crypto Insight UK centres on a single contention: the technical and fundamental backdrop for XRP now mirrors the pre-euphoric set-ups that propelled the token from $0.50 to $2.70 in four weeks during 2021, and it could drive a surge “towards eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve dollars in the very short term.” When Will XRP Hit $12? The analyst began with Bitcoin, because “Bitcoin price action correlates [with] the rest of the market, at least at the minute, before we start to see dominance breakdown.” Last week’s candle, he notes, was the highest weekly close ever recorded by the benchmark asset, yet—critically—the weekly relative-strength index has not entered the overbought zone. In prior cycles, the RSI’s passage into that territory “is when we start to get this mania push-up” that drags alt-coins with it. XRP’s own history is invoked as corroboration: “When we got the weekly into the overbought, that’s when we went from fifty-cent up to $2.70 in the space of like four weeks.” The analyst then drills into order-book heat-maps. Above Bitcoin price lies what he calls a “dense liquidity” cluster, most prominent around $130,000. A matching reservoir sits below, first at $100,000 and then at $93,000. “If we get a pull-back into this $100K level, I will start to heavily position in leverage in altcoins,” he tells viewers, adding that a deeper flush to $93,000 would see him “continue to add to my positions.” Related Reading: XRP Sees Wave Of Inflows: 70% Of Realized Cap Now New Money The market, he argues, is trapped in a self-reinforcing liquidity cycle: each test of overhead supply squeezes shorts, price consolidates, fresh liquidity builds at the new ceiling, and the pattern repeats until a catalyst—a macro loosening of money, a geopolitical shock, or a technical breakout—propels Bitcoin into the next tranche. A sustained move through $130,000, he contends, would likely be that catalyst and would “probably” mark the formal start of alt-season. XRP’s chart is examined through a similar lens. Price has pushed out of what he labels a Wyckoff accumulation range, broken structure to the upside, and is now “finding support on previous resistance” inside a broad bull-flag. On the weekly ratios—XRP/Bitcoin, XRP/Ether and XRP dominance—momentum is quietly inflecting: “We’re starting to get bullish divergences, which is where we see higher lows on the RSI and lower lows in price action … it’s telling us the sellers are running out of steam.” He identifies a descending trend-line capping the consolidation; once that line breaks, he anticipates “an aggressive move back to the upside for XRP.” XRP Price Catalysts The webcast’s second movement shifts from charts to narrative catalysts. Here the analyst reels off a series of developments he regards as unusually synchronous. Reece Merrick, Ripple’s managing director for the Middle East and Africa, has just unveiled a partnership with the Dubai Land Department that tokenises real-estate title deeds on the XRP Ledger, a choice the press release describes as grounded in the chain’s “decade-long reliability.” Related Reading: Analyst Shows 3-Cycle Ride For XRP Price To Reach $46 Ripple has closed its acquisition of Hidden Road, a prime brokerage whose name appears in DTCC documentation that references both XRP and XLM for cross-chain settlement. The firm, he reminds viewers, also holds “the full crypto payments license and settlement ability in Dubai.” Speculation that Ripple might purchase Circle—the issuer of USDC—for about $11 billion, though unconfirmed, is folded into the same bullish mosaic, as is the launch of Ripple’s own RLUSD stablecoin and talk of a looming XRP spot-ETF. Brad Garlinghouse himself, the analyst notes, chose ETFs as the single topic for last Thursday’s edition of Ripple’s “Crypto in a Minute,” having already mused on a podcast that an approval could arrive in July. In Washington, the analyst is watching for passage of the GENIUS stablecoin bill, timing he calls “very convenient” for RLUSD. Even the on-going SEC litigation—Judge Analisa Torres recently rejected the agency’s procedural bid to bring the penalty phase to a close—is framed not as a hindrance but as a potential upside catalyst once resolved. Taken together, he argues, these technical and narrative strands form a spring: “What I’m basically trying to set you up for here, guys, is a succession of positive narratives that will squeeze XRP’s price higher as we move into price discovery.” Yet his crescendo is tempered by disciplined risk management. He illustrates the peril of euphoria with hypothetical road-maps: Bitcoin might gallop to $150,000 or $170,000 and then recoil 18%; altcoins could shed twice that. Under one XRP scenario, an advance to $12 is followed by a 64% retracement to $4.50. “Take some money off the table,” he urges, because unrealised gains “aren’t good for anybody.” Profits banked at interim targets equip the trader both to enjoy further upside and to “reallocate if we get a pull-back.” At press time, XRP traded at $2.30.

Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has predicted that the XRP price can reach $46 based on a historical pattern recorded in the first market cycle. Meanwhile, his analysis of the 3-cycle ride also showed that the altcoin can still reach double digits if it mirrors patterns recorded in other cycles.  XRP Price To Reach $46 If It Mirrors Cycle One In an X post, Egrag Crypto stated that market participants could see the XRP price touching $46 if the altcoin repeats a pattern like the first cycle. He highlighted the historical pattern in cycle one, in which XRP dropped below the 21 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and then dropped an incredible 5,550%. The altcoin then retraced back to the 21 EMA and then dropped another 2,500%.  Related Reading: XRP Price To See 64,000% Rally To $1,700? Analysts Reveal End Of Year Predictions Meanwhile, the crypto analyst predicts that the XRP price can reach $12 if it follows cycle 2. In the second cycle, XRP dropped below the 21 EMA, which led to a 150% breakdown. The altcoin then retraced to the 21 EMA, before it fell again by 500%. Egrag Crypto noted that averaging these projections of a 2,500% and 500% surge gives almost 1,500%, which roughly suggests a target of $30. However, the analyst stated that his estimate is $27.  Commenting on this current cycle, which is the third cycle, the analyst revealed that the XRP price has dropped below the 21 EMA, with a potential rise of 430%. He further noted that the altcoin is retracing back to touch the 21 EMA. If XRP stays above $2, Egrag Crypto claims that the EMA will descend to meet the price. He affirmed that it is coming and very soon.  The Altcoin To Hit $27 In Just 60 Days? In another analysis, Egrag Crypto raised the possibility of the XRP price gaining 1,700% and rallying to $27 in just 60 days. He stated that if XRP is repeating the last section or pattern from October 2017, then the altcoin might be on the brink of a major breakout soon. Back then, it took the altcoin about 63 days to explode and set a new all-time high (ATH), surging by 1,772%.  Related Reading: XRP Price Confirms Bullish Reversal Setup With This Demand Zone If history repeats itself, Egrag Crypto is confident that the XRP price could be approaching $27 within the next 63 days. He reminded market participants that securing profits along the way is always wise as the altcoin rallies to this target. The analyst also revealed that breaking the $3 mark, the high from the February 24 candle this year, is the ultimate target in preparation for the rally to double digits.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.33, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.  Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP price has entered into another consolidation pattern following its break below $2.4 over the weekend. Now, this is nothing new for XRP, which has previously gone on years-long consolidations before now. Just like before, the current consolidations seems to be preceding something bigger and this move could send the altcoin soaring toward new all-time highs. XRP Price Still Holding Above Key Support In an analysis, “Dennishhrndz” showed where the XRP price is currently sitting and the factors that are surrounding the altcoin right now. Firstly, he explains that the cryptocurrency is still trading above a long-term rising trend line. Furthermore, there is tight consolidation in a bullish compression patter, which he likened to a classic “coiled spring.” Related Reading: Ethereum Nears $2,800 Break-Even Zone: Why This Is Important For Rally To $3,000 Not only this, but over the last six months, the XRP price has also been putting in higher lows, a development that is bullish for the price of any cryptocurrency. Since XRP is maintaining this trend, it suggests that there is still bullish firepower despite the price decline. Add in the fact that it is still trading above a very important trendline support, XRP is showing that its uptrend is far from over. The trendline support here is sitting at $2, and with the XRP price still skirting around $2.3, it is still more than 10% away before testing this support level. Inversely, the major resistance outlined by the crypto analyst is one at the $2.7 level. This suggests a run-up before the XRP price encounters any major pushback. Other important developments to note is the fact that the RSI is now sitting in a neutral position. At a 50.88 RSI, give or take, it means that the RSI is resetting. This gives it a fresh start and a bounce board that could help it take off toward the next major level. The MACD is also seeing a bullish crossover as the momentum has been rising slowly during this time. This also follows the decline in the trading volume. Now, low trading volumes often signal bearish control but they also serve as a signal leading up to breakout patterns. When To Get In Given the developments outlined by the crypto analyst, he gives two major buy levels. The first one here is the $2 to $2.2 zone. This is where support for the XRP price lies and serves as a buy zone. Meanwhile, the second level to get in is after the break above $2.7 with strong volume, which would signal continuation. Related Reading: Technical Analyst Predicts Bitcoin Price Blow Off Top To $325,000 – The Timeline Will Shock You Such a break above $2.7 would allow the XRP price to rally towards its true targets. First is a run-up to $3.50, and then the crypto analyst sees a shot to $5. “The longer this consolidates above trendline support, the stronger the breakout move will be,” the analyst said.

After mirroring Bitcoin’s strong breakout over the past week, XRP recently surged to an intraday high of $2.47 before retracing to a lower daily close. Despite this, the broader outlook for XRP is bullish, with the altcoin generally moving in lockstep with Bitcoin and the wider crypto rally. According to recent analysis, a key technical signal just flashed, one that previously preceded a massive 600% rally in November 2024. Familiar Weekly RSI Signal Returns After 200 Days According to crypto analyst Dark Defender, XRP has once again produced a rare Golden Cross on its weekly RSI indicator, an event that last occurred on November 4, 2024. That signal directly preceded XRP’s explosive 600% rally, and its reappearance points to the potential emergence of a similar trajectory for the crypto.  Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Explains XRP Price Roadmap To $37 As Bears Fight For Control Notably, the appearance of the new RSI cross coincides with the elimination of a long-standing weekly resistance trendline after XRP broke to $2.59 on May 14. The analyst’s chart clearly highlights this breakout, with a bright green trendline now breached and a bullish pin bar candlestick forming just above it, adding strength to the bullish case. The RSI’s behavior in the 1W candlestick timeframe chart below is also particularly telling. The purple RSI line has crossed above the yellow moving average once again, exactly as it did in early November 2024. Back then, XRP flashed the cross when its price was trading around $0.5. However, the ensuing price action saw it explode by over 600% to peak at a multi-year high around $3.31 on January 12, 2025.  $3.33 In Sight, But $5.85 May Be The Real Prize Considering the previous price action after the weekly RSI cross in late 2024, crypto analyst Dark Defender’s outlook is based on repeating the same 600% rally or close in the coming weeks. Following this development, Dark Defender has outlined two key price targets.  Related Reading: XRP Price Confirms Bullish Reversal Setup With This Demand Zone The first is $3.33, close to the multi-year peak in January 2025. Should XRP break past that level, the next major target lies around $5.85, corresponding to the 261.8% Fibonacci level. The analyst refers to this upper range as the parapet, meaning that this level could be the next all-time high peak after the price rally. The Elliott Wave structure plotted on the chart outlines a five-wave impulsive move, and XRP is now about to enter wave III, the longest and most powerful wave in a bullish cycle. If this structure plays out as expected, XRP could rapidly push through $2.59, hold above $3.33, and rally toward the upper boundary of the projection range. Interestingly, none of these price targets uses a repeat of the full 600% rally. The $3.33 target is 43% away from the current price level, while $5.85 represents a 150% gain from the current price. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.34. Featured image from Pexels, chart from Tradingview.com

As Bitcoin extends its parabolic climb past $110,000, a closely followed crypto analyst is sounding the alarm for what could be XRP’s most explosive breakout in years. 470% XRP Rally Reloaded? In a market breakdown published on May 22, Cryptoinsightuk (@Cryptoinsightuk)—who has been tracking inverse correlations between the dollar index (DXY) and Bitcoin—told followers that XRP is approaching a critical moment in its historical pattern. Drawing on technical signals and liquidity metrics, the analyst argued that XRP could replicate its late 2020-style breakout, which saw a 470% rally in just 28 days. “Bitcoin is at all-time highs,” he said at the start of the video. “Now we need to lock in because where things could get really exciting is what’s next.” His focus quickly shifted to XRP, which he believes is tracing a setup eerily similar to a period that preceded its 5x surge. The analyst highlighted a “substantial break of the range” on XRP’s chart that historically has marked the start of altseason. “This is the area where XRP outperformed the market,” he noted, referring to a 28-day span starting November 5 during which XRP surged from $0.50 to over $2.70. Related Reading: XRP Price To See 64,000% Rally To $1,700? Analysts Reveal End Of Year Predictions He pointed out that XRP’s historical outperformance came immediately after Bitcoin made a clean break above resistance, and critically, during a sharp decline in Bitcoin dominance—a metric that tracks Bitcoin’s share of the total crypto market cap. “This was the drop that saw XRP move up from 50 cents to $2.70, and then continue to $3.30,” he said. “Now we’re watching for signs of that again.” According to the analysis, XRP’s bullish potential hinges on a few key technical signals aligning. First, he noted a possible bullish divergence forming on the RSI (Relative Strength Index) of the XRP/ETH and XRP/BTC pairs, which could suggest that bearish momentum is fading even as price pulls back. “It’s essentially showing that even though price is going lower, momentum is not there to the downside,” he explained. Related Reading: Massive XRP Selling Pressure Is Stalling Price Action, Analyst Warns The analyst also emphasized the importance of daily closes above certain resistance levels, particularly $2.43 and $2.60, to confirm the start of a renewed uptrend. “That would be a nice daily close… and then we’re targeting $2.60. If we break above that, we’re confirming a new higher high, higher low structure,” he said, adding that the next major resistance lies between $3.40 and $3.00—beyond which, price discovery could begin. Altcoin Season Incoming Beyond XRP, he warned that broader market dynamics also support a shift into altcoins. “What we’ve seen is more and more people trying to short local tops. That takes us higher,” he explained. He cited rising short positions above current price levels as evidence of “pain liquidity”—a squeeze dynamic that could force price action sharply upward. While the rally has begun with Bitcoin, he believes altcoins are poised to follow, with Ethereum already showing signs of rotation. “We want Bitcoin dominance to kind of hold while price moves up,” he said, “and then for liquidity to rotate into altcoins.” Still, Cryptoinsightuk urged caution. “It’s a day to be excited, not a day to rush into trades,” he said. “This is why I’ve been screaming all year to buy the dip,” he added, “whether in XRP, ENA or whatever you want. The setup is here.” At press time, XRP traded at $2.445. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

XRP price forecasts have taken a dramatic turn as bold predictions surface, suggesting that the cryptocurrency could be on the verge of a parabolic 64,000% rally to $1,700. Analysts backing this ambitious forecast point to historical price patterns and XRP’s current technical structure as the basis for their end-of-the-year predictions.  A chart shared by crypto analyst The Real Remi Relief on X (formerly Twitter) shows that XRP is mirroring a technical pattern that preceded its 2017-2018 historical bull run — one that saw the third largest cryptocurrency skyrocket by tens of thousands of percent in just a few months. Now that this historical pattern is unfolding, the analyst has confirmed that a breakout is on the horizon for XRP, with projections pointing toward a potential price target as high as $1,700.  XRP Price End Of Year Forecast The chart shows two distinct consolidation phases in XRP’s price action — the first spanning from 2014 to 2017 and the second lasting from 2018 until early 2024. During both periods, the cryptocurrency underwent a long-term compression under a descending resistance line. This compression was followed by a breakout, retest, and vertical price expansion.  Related Reading: XRP Moves Into Key Range Against Bitcoin As 3 Major Targets Show Up Notably, this breakout in 2017 led to XRP reaching its historical all-time high of $3.84 — a level it hasn’t revisited for over six years. Earlier this year, XRP experienced a similar breakout that pushed it above the multi-year downtrend. The current chart shows that the cryptocurrency’s retest is holding steady, and this pattern has previously preceded massive rallies during the past bull cycles.  As a result, Real Remi Relief argues that history is on the verge of repeating itself. According to his end-of-year forecast for XRP, the cryptocurrency is poised for a staggering 64,000% rally, placing its price at a jaw-dropping $1,700 per token by as early as Q4 2025 or Q1 2026.  While the timeline could extend into the following year, the outlook still frames 2025 as a bullish turning point for XRP, with strong potential for the altcoin to close the year in a strong green. Interestingly, the crypto expert has also shared a more conservative target, predicting that XRP could record a still ambitious, but more realistic surge to $1,200 by year’s end.  XRP Could Skyrocket Even Higher By 150,000% While the Real Remi Relief’s $1,700 price projection for XRP is undeniably bold, the analyst goes even further, speculating that the cryptocurrency’s total upside potential in this cycle could soar as high as 80,000% and 150,000%. This surge could catapult XRP’s current price of $2.4 to an astonishing $1,920 and $3,600, respectively.  Related Reading: XRP: Exit Liquidity Pattern Forming Signals Crash To $1 Such gains would not only eclipse XRP’s previous all-time high but also represent one of the most dramatic asset revaluations in crypto history. Skepticism remains, of course, particularly amongst commentators under the analyst’s X post, who view this bold forecast as an almost impossible goal.

In a recent update on X, market analyst CRYPTOWZRD highlighted a developing double bottom formation on the XRPBTC chart, suggesting a possible bullish reversal may be underway. Although XRP ended the previous session with indecisive movements, this emerging pattern could drive its price action higher. Should the reversal confirm, XRP is likely to push toward the $2.80 resistance zone.  Bitcoin Dominance Pressures Altcoins, XRP Included Expanding on his initial analysis, the analyst noted that XRP and XRPBTC closed their daily candles indecisively, reflecting ongoing market uncertainty and a lack of strong directional action. While XRPBTC is currently holding above a key double bottom formation, the analyst emphasized that the pair still appears relatively weak and requires more stable and constructive price action to confirm a bullish breakout. A strong reaction from this level could serve as a catalyst, helping XRP gain momentum from its current position on the chart. Related Reading: XRP Price Will Still Rally From Here, Crypto Veteran Raoul Pal Forecasts He also pointed out that Bitcoin dominance continues to exert pressure on altcoins, including XRP, causing them to underperform in their BTC pairs. As Bitcoin dominance approaches a major resistance level, the analyst anticipates a reversal that could shift capital flow back into altcoins. Such a reversal would provide a favorable environment and support a broader bullish continuation for XRP. Looking ahead, the analyst stated that his focus will remain on the lower time frames throughout the next trading session to determine the next scalp opportunity, particularly if XRPBTC begins to show signs of recovery and buyers step in with stronger momentum. Waiting On Confirmation: No Entry Without A Clear Move Concluding his analysis, the analyst provided his outlook for the near-term price action, noting that intraday trading was choppy and lacked clear direction throughout the session. Despite the indecisiveness, he predicts a potential upside continuation if the price breaks above the $2.4650 intraday resistance level.  Related Reading: Massive XRP Selling Pressure Is Stalling Price Action, Analyst Warns Conversely, he identified $2.3160 as a crucial intraday support level, where buyers may step in if the market pulls back. This zone will be important to watch, as a breakdown below it could delay any immediate bullish momentum and signal further consolidation. The price action between these two levels will likely define the short-term direction for XRP. He emphasized that patience is key at this stage, urging traders to wait for a clear and healthy move before considering new entries. With market conditions still uncertain, the analyst plans to stay focused on refined setups and mature formations to ensure higher-probability trades in the sessions ahead.

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.

Crypto veteran Raoul Pal has shared his thoughts on the XRP price, predicting it still has more room to rally to the upside. The altcoin is expected to hit a new all-time high (ATH) as it rallies higher.  XRP Price Primed For Another Leg Higher In a YouTube video, Pal remarked that XRP’s chart is one to behold and that its price will likely get another leg higher at some point. His accompanying chart showed a bull flag that had formed for the altcoin since last year, after its parabolic rally to the $2 range. Its price is currently in the consolidation phase, with a breakout usually occurring after this phase.  Related Reading: XRP Price Explosion To $5.9: Current Consolidation Won’t Stop XRP From Growing Based on the chart, the price could rally to as high as $5, which would mark a new all-time high (ATH) for the altcoin. Interestingly, before its surge late last year, the crypto veteran had advised investors to sell their dino coins like XRP and ADA. However, following the pump, he admitted he was wrong and became bullish on the altcoin.   This prediction comes amid the launch of the CME XRP and Micro XRP futures, which are bullish for its price. These products will provide institutional investors with exposure to the altcoin and are also integral to the approval of a Spot XRP ETF. An XRP ETF is one of the factors that crypto analyst BarriC believes could quickly drive prices to $10.   In the short term, crypto analyst Ali Martinez has suggested that the XRP price could retrace before it rallies higher. In an X post, he stated that the asset could return to $2 if it loses the critical $2.30 support. Crypto analyst CasiTrades had also warned that the altcoin could witness a correction following its failure to hold above $2.6 successfully.  The Altcoin Could Hit ATH After This Correction Crypto analyst Dark Defender has suggested that the XRP price could hit its ATH after this market correction, stating that the rally to ATH is closer than anyone else can think of. This came as he revealed that the token has completed the A Wave and is now on the B Wave of Wave 2, meaning that this corrective wave is in its midway.  Related Reading: $40 Billion Worth Of XRP On The Move – Where Are They Headed? The crypto analyst predicts that the XRP price could reach $3.333 after the B and C Waves in this Wave 2 corrective move. Meanwhile, the support levels to watch out for are $2.3502 and $2.2222, while the resistance levels to keep an eye for are $2.58 and $3.3333.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.38, up over 2% 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

XRP’s latest rally attempt has stalled just beneath a key volume-weighted average price (VWAP) level that traces back to the asset’s all-time high, according to a market update published on X earlier today by independent trader Dom (@traderview2). XRP Selling Pressure Is Capping Price Gains The 12-hour Binance chart shared by the analyst shows XRP/USDT changing hands at $2.4375 at 12:18 UTC-4, up 2.08 % on the session but still unable to reclaim what Dom labels the “ATH VWAP”—a long-term metric drawn from the April 2021 peak. A green band representing that average is currently drifting downward through ≈ $2.47, capping every intraday advance since mid-May. Beneath the price action, the seller’s footprint is unmistakable. “There’s simply been an overload of market selling and passive buyers have really tried their best to hold it up so far,” Dom wrote, citing proprietary order-flow statistics that record a net outflow of 240 million XRP across spot venues in the past week. Roughly 180 million of those units were allegedly dumped on Coinbase and South Korean exchange Upbit, while Binance has actually been decently flat, the post adds. Related Reading: Pundit Says XRP Price Will Stabilize At $1,000 And Become ‘Very Expensive’ The same chart plots two shorter-term anchored VWAPs that have become the coin’s last line of near-term support: a one-month rolling VWAP at $2.31, currently 5.22% below the session high (orange), and a three-month VWAP at $2.28, 6.40 % lower (cyan). XRP is “hanging on to the monthly and quarterly VWAP by a thread,” Dom warns. A decisive breach of those bands around $2.31–2.33 would leave the market “really just mid-range noise until … $2.20 is lost,” he adds, pointing to the December–February midpoint drawn on the left-hand volume profile. Related Reading: ‘What If XRP Is The Next Bitcoin?’ Says Dave Portnoy While Bitcoin has been “really just bouncing around” in a broad consolidation zone, the correlation has offered little relief to XRP bulls. Every minor rise in BTC has been met by fresh spot offers in XRP, underscoring what Dom calls the “very hard to see upward moves when we are seeing this type of market selling pressure.” For now, the technical chessboard is clear: reclaim the ATH VWAP and the path opens toward the late-March swing high above $3.00; lose $2.20 and the door swings the other way, toward the confluence of high-volume nodes stacked below $2.00. Until one of those barriers gives, the analyst concludes, XRP “has lost its pep in its step” and remains caught in a tug-of-war between relentless spot sellers and a thinning layer of passive bids. At press time, XRP traded at $2.36. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

Despite its current lackluster price action, many crypto analysts have agreed through various analyses over the past few years that XRP has a very bright parabolic rally ahead. This sentiment has particularly gained ground due to its price action in Q4 2024, leading to a multi-year high of $3.34 in January 2025.  Although XRP has retraced quite a bit from this high, this hasn’t stopped bold long-term projections from resurfacing. One of the more striking forecasts comes from a crypto analyst who believes the altcoin will not only rally into double digits soon but eventually stabilize at $1,000 and become one of the most expensive digital assets in the world. Analyst Predicts The Altcoin Will Hit $10 To $20 Before Entering New Bear Market Crypto market commentator BarriC shared a post on social media platform X outlining a future price trajectory for XRP that begins with a major surge in the coming months. BarriC’s post begins by criticizing the perception that the current price range, which remains below $3, reflects failure. Instead, he views this phase as an accumulation opportunity before a massive breakout.  Related Reading: $10,000 XRP Theory: Factors Analyst Shares Scenarios That Could Drive Growth According to the analyst, there’s a high possibility that the XRP price will climb to somewhere between $10 and $20 in the next few months. Such a move would undoubtedly be accompanied by a surge in the trading volume and activity surrounding XRP. One such primer is if the cryptocurrency somehow gains full utility and adoption with banks in the next few months, or through the launch of a Spot XRP ETF. This surge, BarriC noted, would likely coincide with the final stages of the current altcoin season. Following that, he expects a significant market correction, similar to past cycles, which would bring XRP back down to the $5 to $10 range. Previous cycles dating back to 2016 have typically ended with a sharp 50% market dip. If this happens again, the lower boundary for the next cycle could land between $5 and $10. This mid-cycle dip, according to BarriC, will be the last time XRP is considered cheap before it enters a fundamentally different phase. Banks And Institutional Adoption To Tie Up XRP At $1,000 Permanently BarriC’s prediction is ultimately based on banks’ mass institutional adoption of XRP. He noted that when the asset becomes deeply integrated into the daily operations of banks and financial institutions, we will see a $1,000 XRP. Once trillions of dollars begin flowing consistently through the XRP Ledger, there will be no more volatility and bear market phases for its price.  Related Reading: XRP Price At $10-$20 Only The Beginning, It’s Headed For $1,000 – Analyst Reveals At that point, BarriC believes the altcoin will stabilize at a $1,000 valuation, not as a temporary peak but as a structural price floor. In this case, future investors may only be able to afford fractions of one XRP, much like Bitcoin currently. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.30, down by 2.35% in the past 24 hours. XRP has been steadily declining from $2.62 in the past seven days. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

A new technical analysis reveals that the XRP price has just confirmed a bullish reversal set-up on the 1-hour chart, following a strong rebound from a critical demand zone. This development has raised expectations of a potential short-term rally, as a crypto analyst forecasts higher targets in the coming sessions.  XRP Price Bullish Reversal In Sight ‘FrankFx14,’ a pseudonymous TradingView crypto analyst, has revealed that the XRP price has found solid footing between the $2.31246 and $2.37028 support area. The analyst also identified this range as a historically significant demand zone where previous buying pressure has consistently reversed price declines.   Related Reading: XRP Price Explosion To $5.9: Current Consolidation Won’t Stop XRP From Growing As XRP’s price dipped into this demand zone on May 17, bulls stepped in, defending the lower boundary and triggering a sharp rejection. According to the analyst, the confirmation came with a bullish engulfing candle — a widely recognized signal for a potential trend reversal.  Trading at approximately $2.378 at the time of the chart analysis, XRP is now holding the top of this key demand zone, indicating renewed buying interest. The TradingView analyst has suggested that as long as the price remains above $2.37028, XRP’s bullish outlook remains intact.  According to the TradingView expert, the presence of XRP’s bullish reversal setup is supported by the LuxAlgo Supply and the Demand Visible Range indicator. With XRP’s price action breaking upward from its local bottom, the analyst points to $2.4939 as the next key level to watch. This price marks the mid-level of a previous supply zone and a likely resistance area. The next bullish target for XRP is $2.6031. The analyst has described this point as a major supply zone where sellers previously gained control. These price zones are now considered primary targets for short-term traders positioning for potential upside.  FrankFx14 has urged traders to wait for further confirmation, highlighting that strong trading volume and candle closes above the $2.375 level would be the key to validating XRP’s bullish continuation.  Analyst Forecasts Mega Rally For The Altcoin XRP has officially broken out of a long-term Falling Wedge pattern, sparking optimism, with analysts like Crypto Avi believing that a mega rally could be on the horizon. According to his chart analysis, the token is now poised for a mid-term surge, targeting new all-time highs around $4.90.  Related Reading: When Will The XRP Price Explode? Timeline Shared By Crypto Pundit Presently trading at $2.29, a surge to this bullish target would represent a significant increase of 114% for the altcoin. The chart illustrates that the cryptocurrency has been trapped in a downward-sloping channel since late 2024, consolidating in a pattern seemingly recognized as bullish. XRP is currently testing the Falling Wedge’s breakout level, which may now act as support. A sustained move above this level could confirm the analyst’s bullish thesis, paving the way for a potential climb toward $4.90. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP is holding above critical support levels after weeks of steady gains, but continues to face resistance below the $2.65 mark. Despite struggling to break higher, price action remains constructive, and traders are closely watching for signs of a breakout. The market appears to be coiling for a decisive move, with both bulls and bears awaiting confirmation. Related Reading: Bitcoin Consolidates Below ATH – Buying Pressure Weakens As Equities Outperform Some analysts believe XRP is on the verge of a significant price surge, especially as broader market sentiment improves and Bitcoin stabilizes above key psychological levels. Top crypto analyst Ali Martinez added to this view by sharing a technical analysis that highlights a bullish setup emerging on XRP’s lower timeframes. A key indicator on the 1-hour chart has flashed multiple buy signals, typically associated with local bottoms and short-term rebounds. This setup suggests growing momentum beneath the surface and strengthens the bullish outlook, at least in the short term. If bulls can push through the $2.65 resistance, XRP may open the door for a rally toward previous highs. For now, the focus remains on whether this technical signal translates into a breakout or if further consolidation is needed before the next major move. XRP Builds Momentum On Lower Timeframes XRP is showing impressive resilience and remains one of the standout performers in the current market cycle. After a 50%+ rally from its April lows, XRP has retraced slightly from its local high near $2.80, yet continues to trade above key support levels. This retracement appears healthy given the scale of the recent move, and momentum remains firmly with the bulls, at least for now. Market sentiment around XRP is split. Some analysts are calling for the beginning of a new bullish phase, with expectations of massive upside fueled by renewed altcoin strength and institutional interest. Others, however, warn that the current price action may be a temporary bounce within a broader bearish trend and caution that failure to reclaim higher resistance zones could lead to a sharp correction. Despite the divided outlook, technical signals are leaning bullish in the short term. Martinez shared an update revealing that the TD Sequential indicator has printed multiple buy signals on XRP’s hourly chart. This tool is often used to identify trend reversals or continuation points, and in this case, it suggests that XRP could be gearing up for another leg higher. If bulls can reclaim the $2.80 level and push beyond recent highs, XRP may ignite further upside momentum and test major resistance levels around $3.00 and beyond. For now, all eyes are on how the price reacts to short-term signals—particularly the buy zone identified by TD Sequential—which may dictate the next move in this critical phase of XRP’s market structure. Related Reading: Ethereum Faces Resistance Against Bitcoin – ETH/BTC Bullish Structure In Question Price Analysis: Testing Key Support After Strong Rally XRP is currently consolidating around the $2.35 level after a strong rally earlier this month that saw the price surge to highs near $2.80. The chart shows that after reaching that local top, XRP has retraced but remains above its 200-day EMA ($2.04) and 200-day SMA ($2.18), both of which now act as dynamic support zones. This pullback appears to be part of a healthy correction following the sharp run-up, and the structure still favors the bulls as long as XRP holds above $2.20. Price action shows a potential base forming around the $2.35 zone, with decreasing volatility suggesting that the market may be coiling for its next move.

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.
