THE LATEST CRYPTO NEWS

Jake Claver, CEO of Digital Ascension Group, says ultra-wealthy families are rapidly accumulating XRP, and he believes most XRP holders still don’t realize how rare their position is. In a video posted on X, Claver revealed that his firm has been in recent conversations with large family offices that are now making significant allocations into XRP.  His comments arrive at a moment when XRP’s long-term narrative is witnessing increased interest due to ETFs, and they highlight a shift happening among investors who have always avoided cryptocurrencies altogether. Related Reading: Bitcoin Adoption Is Just Getting Started — 200x Growth Possible, Tom Lee Says Wealthy Families Quietly Accumulating XRP Claver explained that XRP ownership is currently extremely limited relative to the global population, noting that only around 8 million wallets exist on the XRPL. Half of those wallets contain fewer than 100 XRP, which makes existing holders far more uncommon than they may think. He contrasted this with Bitcoin’s widespread ownership, arguing that XRP is still early in its adoption curve. He said the wealthy families showing interest are not looking for quick profits. According to him, they have already built their fortunes and instead see XRP as a form of insurance. According to his post, these families are buying crypto, not to get richer, but to protect the wealth they already have.  He described their interest in cryptocurrencies as a hedge. These investors want something uncorrelated in their portfolios ahead of any potential shock in traditional markets. Claver’s $10K Price Target And The Conditions He Outlined When asked where he sees the price of XRP going, Claver stated that he believes the cryptocurrency could be trading at $10,000 by late 2026 or early 2027. He tied this prediction to how much ecosystem infrastructure becomes active on the XRPL over the next two years.  He said the network would need substantial institutional-grade utilities, including XRP treasury systems, Evernorth’s launch, on-chain borrowing mechanisms, and new amendments to the XRP Ledger that will bring in additional compliance layers and smart-contract features. His projection assumes that rising network volume will require higher liquidity levels and that price stability at four- and five-figure ranges will only be achievable if the ledger is handling large-scale financial flows. He also pointed to ETFs as a major factor in shaping supply and demand, noting that as ETF adoption grows, more XRP will be locked away in long-term institutional products.  Speaking of ETFs, Spot XRP ETFs are now approaching $1 billion in total net assets and could cross that threshold within the next few days. Since their debut, these funds have taken in about $897.35 million worth of XRP from exchanges and OTC desks, and they have yet to record a single day of outflows.  Related Reading: A New Era Begins: CFTC Approves Spot Bitcoin On Regulated US Markets This growing demand ties directly into a quiet change happening among institutions, a trend Ripple’s CEO Brad Garlinghouse recently highlighted. He explained that Ripple is seeing notable activity through Ripple Prime, where long-watching institutions that once stayed out due to regulatory uncertainty or simple risk aversion are finally beginning to step in.  Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView

A crypto analyst has made an unexpected declaration, predicting that XRP investors could become extremely rich in just a few months. This bold claim comes with a new technical analysis, suggesting that XRP is now entering a pivotal price area that previously triggered explosive rallies. Despite the cryptocurrency’s low price and recent downtrend, the analyst remains confident that XRP could mirror past trends and skyrocket to new highs. Related Reading: Bitcoin Adoption Is Just Getting Started — 200x Growth Possible, Tom Lee Says XRP To Make Holders Wealthy In 3 Months? In a recent X post, popular market analyst ‘Steph Is Crypto’ issued a dramatic warning to XRP holders, announcing that investors will become extremely rich within the next three months. The analyst’s bold prediction elicited mixed reactions from the XRP community, with some expressing optimism and others skepticism.  Steph Is Crypto shared a price chart with colored bands to support his ambitious claims, tracking XRP’s performance through multiple past bull cycles. The chart highlights a recurring pattern in which XRP enters a higher-colored zone during periods often associated with altcoin strength. In previous cycles, those moments were followed by unexpected, explosive upward price moves.  During the bull cycle in 2018, XRP skyrocketed by 100x, pushing its price up towards its current all-time high of $3.84. A similar uptrend occurred again during the 2020 to 2022 cycle, with XRP entering a prolonged bull phase that saw its price rally by 20x. According to Steph Is Crypto, the current chart setup appears similar to these past bullish phases.  His chart analysis suggests that XRP is once again approaching the same colored region that previously marked the start of strong price rallies. While the scale of the projected acceleration this time may differ from the peaks seen in the last two cycles, Steph Is Crypto remains confident that it will still be substantial enough to make holders significantly wealthy by March 2026. XRP Maintains Bullish Monthly SuperTrend Crypto market analyst ChartNerd has released a fresh technical analysis of XRP, suggesting that the cryptocurrency continues to show strong positive signals. According to him, XRP’s monthly SuperTrend remains firmly bullish. He emphasized that maintaining a price above the green SuperTrend line near $1.30 signals a long-term upward trajectory, with no red trends currently indicating the onset of a bear market.  ChartNerd shared a chart with a SuperTrend overlay where green lines represent bullish conditions and red lines highlight previous bear markets. The current monthly candles for XRP remain well above the green zone, reinforcing the belief that broader market conditions favor an upside. The analyst interprets this as confirmation that XRP’s long-term price trend is still predominantly bullish.  Related Reading: A New Era Begins: CFTC Approves Spot Bitcoin On Regulated US Markets Historical data on the chart also indicate that past declines in XRP coincided with prolonged red SuperTrend phases. This happened before the big 2017 and 2020 breakout, with each recovery triggered once the price moved back above the green SuperTrend line.  Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView

Crypto analyst CryptoInsight has indicated that the XRP price is on the verge of another crash, with a potential drop below the psychological $2 level. The analyst also revealed the level that the altcoin needs to reclaim to invalidate this bearish outlook.  XRP Price Risks Crash To Another Low In an X post, CryptoInsight suggested that the XRP price could crash to a new low. This came as the analyst noted that on the lower time frame, the altcoin has made a higher low after bouncing from range lows. However, it has yet to make a higher high, which provides a bearish outlook.  Related Reading: XRP Open Interest Reset Could Put Bulls Back In Control As Price Targets $3 The analyst further remarked that until the XRP price makes a higher high, there is likely to be more chop while questioning the possibility of another low revisit. He indicated that XRP will need to break the descending triangle and through the $2.30 level before a reversal can be on the cards.  However, CryptoInsight is still bullish on the XRP price in the long term. He noted that the higher-time-frame structure is still well and truly intact. The analyst added that the altcoin is holding the yearly range lows as support, which is also the previous 7-year resistance. In line with this, he declared that it is inevitable that XRP records a new all-time high (ATH) in the near future based on liquidity alone.  Meanwhile, the analyst remarked that he is uncertain whether the XRP price will wick out to the bottom first to regain momentum. Overall, he remains bullish on XRP. Crypto analyst CasiTrades had stated that XRP might need to record one last low before it reverses and rallies to new highs. She highlighted $1.80 and $1.64 as areas that XRP could bottom at.  XRP Likely To Retest $2.04 With Two Likely Scenarios In her latest X post, CasiTrades stated that the XRP price is likely heading to retest the macro .5 Fib at $2.04. She noted that this level has been the most important one in the entire correction. Based on this, she outlined two scenarios that could play out if the altcoin drops to that level. The analyst described the first scenario as the bullish new trend.  Related Reading: Analyst Says This Needs To Happen For The XRP Price To Rally Again Under this scenario, if $2.04 holds as support, the XRP price could break above the $2.41 resistance and push toward $2.65, confirming a new bullish wave structure is forming. CasiTrades remarked that this potential move would strongly suggest that the macro low is already in, with the altcoin eyeing new highs between $7 and $10.  Meanwhile, the second scenario is a bearish .618 support test. If the XRP price fails to hold $2.04, CasiTrades predicts that it would likely head toward $1.64, completing the full macro .618 retracement before launching into the macro Wave 3.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.08, down over 4% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

According to an analytics report, XRP traded near $2.06 on Friday as social chatter around the token turned sharply negative after a two-month slide of about 30%. Related Reading: A New Era Begins: CFTC Approves Spot Bitcoin On Regulated US Markets Traders and data firms flagged a sudden rise in bearish messages, a shift from the more mixed views seen earlier this year. The mood has tightened around crypto, and XRP is not immune. Crowd Mood Shifts To Fear Based on reports from Santiment, its chart tracks XRP’s price against positive and negative comments and a combined sentiment line that aims to measure crowd feeling. Recent readings pushed the balance into what Santiment calls the fear zone, where negative talk outweighs optimism. On this same model, Santiment pointed to Nov. 21 as a comparable moment. Back then, XRP rallied more than 20% over the next three days before gains cooled. That past move is being used as a reference point by traders who watch social signals closely. ???? XRP (-31% in the past 2 months), unlike Bitcoin, is seeing the most fear, uncertainty, & doubt (FUD) since October, according to our social data. ???? Circles indicate days where there are abnormally higher BULLISH comments compared to BEARISH comments, about XRP (Greed Zone)… https://t.co/lJNW8zlRwK pic.twitter.com/ZoFmwrtw3h — Santiment (@santimentfeed) December 4, 2025 Short Squeezes And Reflexive Moves Extreme pessimism can become a catalyst. When weaker holders sell and shorts pile in, a quick reversal can squeeze sellers and lift price sharply. This is the scenario many are watching: heavy bearish chatter could clear the way for a reflexive rebound if buying pressure appears. Santiment urged followers to keep an eye on the same dashboard to spot rapid shifts in sentiment, and some traders say the crowd’s mood often leads price in the very short term. Price Moves And Market Backdrop XRP was last reported down about 4% at $2.04, extending a loss of roughly 6% over the past month. The total crypto market value slipped about 1% to $3.22 trillion on the same day, a pullback that has dragged on many altcoins even as liquidity stays concentrated in the largest tokens. Order books on smaller pairs have thinned and leveraged positions were trimmed, leaving less depth to absorb big moves. Traders also cited uncertainty around upcoming US policy decisions as a factor behind cautious positioning. Institutional Push And On-Ledger Activity Analysts watching the token say it still has room to run toward $2.50 to $2.75 if cross-border liquidity flows pick up and stablecoin projects on the XRP Ledger gain momentum. Reports have disclosed that Ripple has been moving to broaden its institutional reach. Buy XRP. Stop focusing on any other Crypto Coins They don’t matter — Cameron Scrubs (@imcameronscrubs) December 2, 2025 Last month, the firm launched digital asset spot prime brokerage services in the US after acquiring Hidden Road and folding it into Ripple Prime, a combined trading and custody setup for professional clients. That push is being watched as a potential longer-term support for demand. Related Reading: Bitcoin Crash Fails To Shake Ripple CEO — He Still Calls For $180K Vocal Bulls And Market Signals Despite the FUD surrounding XRP, Cameron Scrubs, founder of Tradeship University, has again urged followers to “buy XRP,” stating that other crypto assets “don’t matter.” In previous posts, he also called to “sell everything and buy XRP.” Traders are watching these statements closely as sentiment shifts, while on-chain data and social signals are being monitored for indications that the current negative chatter may be starting to ease.

XRP price started a decent increase above $2.120. The price is now correcting gains and might struggle to stay in a positive zone. XRP price started a downside correction and tested the $2.080 zone. The price is now trading below $2.120 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a bearish trend line forming with resistance at $2.110 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The pair could start another increase if it clears $2.150. XRP Price Dips Again XRP price started a downside correction from the $2.220 zone, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price dipped below the $2.20 and $2.150 levels to enter a consolidation phase. The price even dipped below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.984 swing low to the $2.220 high. Besides, there is a bearish trend line forming with resistance at $2.110 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. However, the bulls remained active above the $2.080 support. The price is now trading below $2.10 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $2.110 level and the trend line. The first major resistance is near the $2.150 level, above which the price could rise and test $2.220. A clear move above the $2.220 resistance might send the price toward the $2.2850 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.350 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $2.420. Another Decline? If XRP fails to clear the $2.150 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.080 level and the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $1.984 swing low to the $2.220 high. The next major support is near the $2.040 level. If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.040 level, the price might continue to decline toward $2.00. The next major support sits near the $1.9850 zone, below which the price could continue lower toward $1.920. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for XRP/USD is now gaining pace in the bearish zone. Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for XRP/USD is now below the 50 level. Major Support Levels – $2.080 and $2.040. Major Resistance Levels – $2.110 and $2.150.

A crypto market analyst has compared XRP to NVIDIA, an American technology company with one of the biggest tech success stories in history. The analyst implied that buying XRP today could mirror the opportunity investors had when purchasing NVIDIA shares in 2000 at just $0.35. The comparison emphasizes the long-term potential of the XRP price and highlights the importance of HODLing.  XRP Today Shows Growth Potential Like NVIDIA In 2000 A leading market expert, Egrag Crypto, has drawn a striking parallel between the current XRP price and the early days of NVIDIA. He suggested that buying XRP now could be akin to purchasing NVIDIA shares at just $0.35, as recorded in 2000. At the time of writing, the shares are priced around $180, representing a staggering 51,329% increase from over two decades ago.  Related Reading: Brace For Impact: XRP Price Has Formed A Bullish Cross On Its Weekly Stochastic RSI Egrag Crypto points out that a $10,000 investment in NVIDIA at $0.35 per share in 2000 would have secured roughly 28,571 shares. At today’s prices, those shares would be worth over $5,142,780, demonstrating an investment strategy focused more on maintaining conviction and patience than timing or predicting the market perfectly. Beyond this, the analyst’s comparison illustrates the power of investing long-term in disruptive technologies, showing how early adoption and willingness to hold through volatility can result in life-changing gains.  Applying this perspective to XRP, Egrag Crypto highlighted that the cryptocurrency has surged from $0.006 to $3.65 over the past 10 years. By comparing the altcoin to NVIDIA shares, he suggests the cryptocurrency could have similar potential for transformative, explosive growth. As a result, he implied that the current XRP price of $2.2 may present a potential entry point for investors willing to commit to a disciplined long-term strategy.  Much like NVIDIA in its early days around 2000, XRP is still in the initial stages of its growth trajectory. The cryptocurrency recently emerged from a prolonged legal battle with the US SEC that had constrained its development and price appreciation for nearly 7 years. With increasing utility and ongoing ecosystem developments, XRP is well-positioned to grow over time. While its price has declined roughly 20% this year, according to CoinMarketCap, analysts remain optimistic about its long-term outlook.  XRP On-Chain Activity Hits Record Levels  On the technical front, XRP has experienced a remarkable surge in on-chain activity, signaling heightened engagement across the network. Data from CryptoQuant shows that on December 2, the velocity metric for the XRP Ledger (XRPL) spiked to a yearly high of $0.0324. Related Reading: Warning: XRP Price Is Forming A Death Cross That Previously Led To A 15% Crash Analysts from CryptoQuant have revealed that the rise in circulation velocity suggests that XRP is being actively traded rather than sitting idle in cold wallets. The increase points to high liquidity and significant participation from whales who appear to be moving large amounts of tokens. Additionally, such activity indicates that the XRP network is experiencing unprecedented levels of engagement, with more coins changing hands in a short time than the market has seen so far in 2025.  Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com

Bitcoin and XRP have become central to a bold corporate shift in Japan, with AltPlus announcing that both digital assets will be formally incorporated into its long-term treasury strategy. The publicly listed company disclosed the move in its recent shareholder filing, outlining a multi-layered plan that positions cryptocurrencies as foundational components of its future financial and operational framework. Bitcoin And XRP Lead Treasury According to a post by “BankXRP” on X (formerly Twitter), AltPlus is expected to purchase and hold Bitcoin and XRP through a newly established cryptocurrency purchase and management division. The company frames this step as part of a long-horizon capital strategy supported by blockchain transparency, expanding global regulatory clarity, and the growing institutional acceptance of digital assets. In the filing, Bitcoin and XRP are highlighted for their scarcity, decentralization, predictability, and fast, low-cost transactional capabilities—attributes AltPlus expects will contribute to long-term value growth and broader financial-market utility. Related Reading: XRP Price Is Performing As Expected; Analyst Reveals What Comes Next Moreover, the treasury initiative is designed to strengthen the company’s financial base, diversify revenue streams, and establish a stable earnings engine through staking-based income. AltPlus presents the move as a structured method to enhance capital efficiency and reinforce corporate value over time. The company notes that holding both Bitcoin and XRP aligns its balance-sheet strategy with emerging global trends in digital-asset management and institutional-grade treasury practices. AltPlus also outlines its risk-management system to address crypto-market volatility, liquidity risks, cybersecurity threats, regulatory changes, and speculative trading patterns. The company plans to implement investment-scale limits, a controlled holding-ratio strategy, and a proprietary internal asset-management system to govern acquisition, custody, tracking, and treasury integration. These measures are designed to maintain governance discipline, ensure compliance, and safeguard digital-asset operations as part of the broader corporate structure. AltPlus’ Web3 And Digital-Asset Expansion Beyond treasury allocation, AltPlus frames Bitcoin and XRP as key elements in a broader transition into digital-asset operations and Web3-enabled business development. The filing situates this shift within a global context, noting that major financial institutions and listed companies worldwide are increasingly incorporating crypto assets into holding, settlement, and capital-management functions. Related Reading: Are Dogecoin Whales Leaving The Meme Coin? Large Transactions Crash To 2-Month Lows Building on this trend, AltPlus plans to integrate blockchain infrastructure into its Entertainment and Solutions business. This includes exploring Web3 functionality, token-based engagement models, and digital-asset utilities across its gaming and IP ecosystem. These initiatives are intended to unlock new business models, enhance operational flexibility, and develop internal expertise for a digital-native market environment. The company’s decision to include XRP directly in its treasury strategy is one of the standout elements of the announcement. AltPlus positions XRP as a long-term corporate asset alongside Bitcoin, marking a notable step forward for institutional crypto adoption in Japan. Through treasury transformation, staking-driven income generation, and Web3 ecosystem expansion, AltPlus is creating a strategic framework similar to the high-conviction treasury approach seen at MicroStrategy. At the same time, it is establishing a distinctly Japanese model focused on utility, diversification, and forward-looking corporate innovation.

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

The XRP price action is now showing signs of resilience as it coils tightly around a key support level, fighting against further downside pressure. Despite recent pressure across the broader crypto landscape, XRP has repeatedly held this level. With bearish momentum fading and volatility compressing, it could be preparing for a potential reversal. Support Cluster Shows Strength As XRP Holds Its Ground XRP is reaching a point where it refuses to go any lower. Crypto analyst Henry has noted on X that the token is whispering loudly right now, showing strength exactly where it matters, and rising clearly from its trendline support after days of bleeding. Related Reading: XRP Shows Unusual Market Behavior as Traders Weigh Fresh Bullish Signals for December This level has been tested, rejected, and respected with precision, but this bounce feels different as the structure looks cleaner, the moment feels calmer, and the overall price action seems controlled. Whether it breaks out this time or not, the setup is undeniably shifting fast.  Adding to the momentum narrative, Bloomberg reports that $11 trillion asset manager Vanguard will begin to allow clients to access their XRP ETFs starting from tomorrow. Meanwhile, the US spot crypto ETF flows on December 1st came in at a solid $90+ million. As a result of the setup, Henry has suggested that the next major target sits around $2.20 region if the market confirms the move. An inverted look at the XRP chart over the last six weeks reveals a textbook 3-drive pattern, a formation that has constantly preceded major reversal events in crypto. According to Dom, the translation into a higher low has finally formed, which hints at the first sign that a trend change could be developing. However, bulls need to regain the monthly RVWAP around the $2.22 region, and holding above this area would mark a significant shift in structure, opening the door for a continuation rally towards the $2.50 range. The order books are clear enough that, if momentum is going to flip, this is the time. If this price setup fails to hold this structure and slips back below $2.00, Don warns that the end of the year could turn less favorable. Why Exchange Balance Is The Ultimate Supply Metric The Co-founder of Tedlabsio, trader and investor Niels, pointed out that XRP has just flashed one of the strongest bullish signals seen in the current market cycle. Over the past two months, roughly 45% of the XRP supply held on exchanges has been withdrawn and moved off trading platforms.  Related Reading: What The Rapid XRP Outlfows From Crypto Exchanges Mean For The Price A drop in exchange supply this sharp only happens when the smart money is accumulating heavily. When the supply available on the exchange reduces, the selling pressure reduces, and this is how big moves begin. Niels believes that XRP is entering that phase where most people haven’t noticed yet.

The XRP price has staged a strong rebound in recent days, rising from early-December weakness and climbing back above $2. The recovery comes just after crypto analyst CasiTrades published a detailed technical outlook on the social media platform X, where she outlined a scenario that anticipated both the initial decline and the current bounce.  Now that XRP has begun moving upward towards $2.2, the focus is on what the next phase of this pattern could bring next. Subwave 3 Targets Hit As Structure Plays Out CasiTrades explained that XRP’s early-December drop was part of a subwave 2 setup that had been discussed during her previous livestream. When XRP fell to $2.03 in early December, it confirmed the transition into a subwave 3 extension, and the next projected target sat near $1.90. That level was important not only as a Fibonacci extension but also because it corresponded with Bitcoin reaching its macro 0.382 level around the $79,000 region. Related Reading: Are Dogecoin Whales Leaving The Meme Coin? Large Transactions Crash To 2-Month Lows The chart attached to her analysis illustrated this path clearly. A sequence of orange, pink, and black wave structures converged toward the same support region, all pointing toward $1.90 as the initial landing zone. As shown in the chart image below, there’s another green accumulation block between $1.80 and $1.64 as the deeper support level that could still come into play.  XRP Chart Analysis. Source: @CasiTrades On X At the time of her analysis, selling pressure was already slowing down, and momentum indicators like the RSI were building a bullish divergence. Since then, XRP’s price action has turned bullish, and this supports the idea that a reaction was always likely to occur in the $1.90 zone. CasiTrades noted that once the price reached this level, she expected a bounce back toward $2.04 to retest resistance for a new Wave 4 formation. Over the past few days, XRP has done exactly that, rising from its lows and reclaiming momentum as buyers returned. Two Final Scenarios Still In Play For XRP According to CasiTrades, there are two possible outcomes for the XRP price against the backdrop of retesting $2.04. The first outcome is a double bottom forming around the $1.80 to $1.88 region, depending on the exchange. The chart she shared includes a mid-range support box that captures this possibility, with wave markings showing how price could rotate downward before a larger breakout. Related Reading: Here’s What To Expect If The XRP Price Holds $2 The second potential outcome is a deeper sweep to $1.64, which is based on the macro 0.618 support. This zone forms the lower boundary of the green accumulation block on her chart, representing the final area where a full Wave 2 or Wave C completion could occur before XRP attempts a larger impulsive breakout.

XRP price started a recovery wave above $2.150. The price is now showing positive signs and might surge if it clears the $2.250 pivot level. XRP price started a recovery wave above the $2.120 zone. The price is now trading above $2.150 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a short-term contracting triangle forming with resistance at $2.20 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The pair could continue to move up if it settles above $2.250. XRP Price Eyes Upside Break XRP price remained supported above $2.00 and started a recovery wave, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price was able to climb above $2.050 and $2.10 to enter a positive zone. There was a clear move above the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2.2750 swing high to the $1.9844 low. However, the price is now facing resistance near $2.220. There is also a short-term contracting triangle forming with resistance at $2.20 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The price is now trading above $2.150 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. It seems to be consolidating near the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2.2750 swing high to the $1.9844 low. If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $2.20 level. The first major resistance is near the $2.220 level. A close above $2.220 could send the price to $2.250. The next hurdle sits at $2.350. A clear move above the $2.350 resistance might send the price toward the $2.40 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.450 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $2.50. Downside Correction? If XRP fails to clear the $2.250 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.180 level. The next major support is near the $2.150 level. If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.150 level, the price might continue to decline toward $2.10. The next major support sits near the $2.050 zone, below which the price could continue lower toward $2.00. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for XRP/USD is now gaining pace in the bullish zone. Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for XRP/USD is now above the 50 level. Major Support Levels – $2.180 and $2.150. Major Resistance Levels – $2.220 and $2.250.

The last two months have seen a major reset in the XRP open interest, coinciding with the widespread sell-offs that have rocked the market. Looking at past performances, historical data suggests that this open interest reset could be a major break for the altcoin. As prices begin to see some recovery, the reset could present the perfect opportunity for bulls to reclaim complete control of the XRP price and drive it toward higher levels. How Far Has The XRP Open Interest Crashed? To know the scale of this reset, it is important to look at the XRP open interest numbers over the last few months. Data from Coinglass shows that back in July, the XRP open interest hit a new all-time high of $10.9 billion as market participation surged to levels not seen before. Related Reading: When Will Bitcoin, Ethereum, And Dogecoin Go Into A Bear Market? Coincidentally, this rise to new all-time highs coincided with the XRP open interest coming out of another period of reset, eventually leading the XRP price to reach new seven-year peaks. However, it wasn’t long until the bears came knocking once again, and the open interest tumbled as the price fell. For perspective, the open interest is the total of all XRP futures or option contracts. Effectively, this is a reflection of participation and the number of bets that traders are making on the cryptocurrency. Thus, the higher the open interest, the higher the amount of money invested in XRP derivatives, and vice versa. Presently, the open interest is sitting at a low $3.75 billion, representing an over 65% crash from its $10.94 billion peak. But this crash could be the reset that the altcoin needs for another recovery, especially as liquidity begins to flow back into the market on account of the US Federal Reserve putting an end to quantitative tightening. Can The Price Surge To New All-Time Highs? Earlier in the year, when the XRP open interest had crashed from its January all-time highs, the reset ended up resulting in higher prices. Although the XRP price didn’t break its 2018 record, it came close in July. However, going by this trend, the altcoin could have a while longer to go before there is a surge.

Following the crash in January, the XRP open interest had remained low for the next five months, with the price showing muted performance alongside it. With only two months since its last peak, the XRP open interest could trend low for a while longer before breaking out. However, if the trend holds, then the resulting rally would push the price above $3 once again.   Featured image from Getty Images, chart from TradingView.com

The XRP price is rebounding sharply as the broader crypto market slowly recovers from a months-long downtrend. Although XRP is still more than 43% below its all-time high, a market analyst has outlined what needs to happen before the cryptocurrency can rally again. The analyst has shared a rather blunt assessment of XRP’s recent performance, highlighting its vulnerability and weakened price action.  XRP Price Rally Hinges On Bitcoin’s Recovery A crypto market expert identified as ‘Guy on Earth’ has issued a fresh warning on X, highlighting that the XRP price is currently sitting at precarious levels and “hanging on for its dear life.” His outlook was cautious as he stated that the cryptocurrency is barely maintaining a crucial monthly bull market support level.  Related Reading: Brace For Impact: XRP Price Has Formed A Bullish Cross On Its Weekly Stochastic RSI In his view, a potential XRP price rally now depends on a shift in Bitcoin’s behavior. The analyst explained that the altcoin market has suffered from maximum stress in recent months and will only begin to recover once BTC stages a rebound. He highlighted that the cryptocurrency needs to trigger a recovery rally while its dominance levels decline, giving altcoins enough room to regain former momentum and stage a rally.  Without this change in Bitcoin, the pressure on XRP is likely to continue. Recently, BTC climbed roughly 7% and is now trading above $93,000. Within the same period, the XRP price has surged more than 9% to $2.19. This trend highlights a correlation between Bitcoin’s positive price action and XRP’s upward movement.  Despite the recovery, Guy on Earth has warned investors and traders to stay realistic and manage their exposure carefully, given the market’s fragile state. His accompanying chart supports this caution. It shows that following a sharp impulse move that pushed XRP into a multi-year high zone, the price has stalled beneath a clear ceiling marked by repeated monthly rejections. Below the price structure, XRP’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) has declined, reflecting fading strength.  XRP Price To 10x In 2026 Crypto Super Cycle Presenting a more bullish outlook for XRP, crypto analyst Amonyx has examined its price potential within the broader altcoin market cycle. He suggested that the crypto supercycle in 2026 will be massive. His analysis places XRP at the centre of this bullish expansion, predicting a powerful price surge. Related Reading: Warning: XRP Price Is Forming A Death Cross That Previously Led To A 15% Crash Amonyx shared a chart illustrating three distinct altcoin seasons during past bull market cycles, each marked by explosive performances relative to Bitcoin. The first two cycles show a massive surge followed by prolonged cooldown periods. The current cycle highlights a larger structure, suggesting that the upcoming altcoin season in 2026 could be more powerful than the last two. If this trend holds, the analyst predicts that XRP’s price could skyrocket 10x from its current level of $2.19 to approximately $22. Featured image from Pngtree, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP price started a recovery wave from $1.9840. The price is now rising above $2.120 and might face hurdles near the $2.250 pivot level. XRP price started a recovery wave from the $1.9840 zone. The price is now trading above $2.120 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There was a break above a key bearish trend line with resistance at $2.150 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The pair could continue to move up if it settles above $2.250. XRP Price Recovers Over 5% XRP price extended losses below the $2.050 support, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price even spiked below $2.00 before the bulls appeared. A low was formed at $1.9844, and the price is now attempting to recover. There was a move above the $2.050 and $2.120 levels. The bulls were able to push the price above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2.2750 swing high to the $1.9844 low. Besides, there was a break above a key bearish trend line with resistance at $2.150 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The price is now trading above $2.150 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If there is a fresh upward move, the price might face resistance near the $2.20 level or the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2.2750 swing high to the $1.9844 low. The first major resistance is near the $2.250 level. A close above $2.250 could send the price to $2.320. The next hurdle sits at $2.350. A clear move above the $2.350 resistance might send the price toward the $2.40 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.450 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $2.50. Another Decline? If XRP fails to clear the $2.250 resistance zone, it could start a fresh decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.120 level. The next major support is near the $2.10 level. If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.10 level, the price might continue to decline toward $2.050. The next major support sits near the $2.00 zone, below which the price could continue lower toward $1.920. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for XRP/USD is now gaining pace in the bullish zone. Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for XRP/USD is now above the 50 level. Major Support Levels – $2.120 and $2.10. Major Resistance Levels – $2.20 and $2.250.

The XRP price has spent the past several days in a fragile position after falling from $2.20 and retesting $2, which has now become the most closely watched level on its price chart. The weekly candle has managed to close slightly green for the first time in more than a month, yet the rebound has not erased the weakness created by the recent sell-off.  The latest technical analysis from Guy on the Earth focuses on this exact moment, noting that XRP’s entire structure now depends on whether this $2 zone can keep functioning as the pivot that stops further downside. Holding $2 As The Important Bull Support Guy on the Earth describes the $2 price level as the line separating resilience from a potentially long period of stagnation. His analysis shows XRP holding this level despite several weeks of bearish candles, a sign that sellers have not managed to gain full control even after the broader market’s pullback.  Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Crash Below $50,000? Analyst Reveals Why 2026 Will Be The ‘Best Year’ The weekly chart he shared displays a cluster of past support zones roughly aligned between $2 and $1.95, making this area the foundation of the current trend. According to the analyst, losing the $2 price level could leave XRP drifting for months or even years with little upside movement, aside from isolated opportunities when temporary lows form. For now, the fact that XRP ended the past week in the green, even slightly, keeps the structure intact. XRP’s reaction around $2 cannot be understood without watching Bitcoin. In his view, the best scenario for XRP is for Bitcoin to bounce back above $100,000, and a subsequent fall in BTC dominance. The chart’s declining RSI on the XRP weekly timeframe also hints at momentum changing, but its path will ultimately follow whatever direction Bitcoin chooses next. XRP Price Chart. Source: @guyontheearth On X Two Diverging Paths From Here Guy on the Earth outlines two possible outcomes as the market enters a critical phase. The first is a recovery from current levels that allows altcoins to outperform again, opening the door for XRP to revisit the mid-range zone around $2.60 before making any attempt at its previous highs.  Related Reading: Dogecoin Just Suffered An 80% Crash In This Major Metric The second is a deeper market drop that drags XRP below the $2 price level. This move would flip its most important support into resistance and set up a prolonged stretch of declining price action. Nothing inspiring will happen below there except well-timed buys when the lows appear to be in. Both scenarios are realistic, and $2 is the dividing point that will determine which one unfolds. The analyst’s bias leans toward a move higher, but he warns that traders must be aware of the risks if Bitcoin does not stabilize soon. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.02 after a 1.2% fall in the past 24 hours and is at risk of losing this $2 support level. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

A recent XRP price analysis from a prominent supporter has placed the cryptocurrency’s long-term value in the four-figure range. Although XRP is currently trading around $2, the analyst believes a rise to $1,000 is necessary for the altcoin. His outlook stems from the cryptocurrency’s underlying utility rather than speculation, emphasizing how global liquidity systems could drive prices upward through massive settlement volumes.  Why The XRP Price Needs To Climb To $1,000 Crypto analyst @unkownDLT has shared a rather ambitious price forecast for XRP this week. The analyst claims that the cryptocurrency must reach thousands of dollars to operate as a fundamental component within global settlement and collateral markets. He highlights that this bold target is not mere speculative hype but a projection of what could unfold if XRP were to serve as the backbone of global liquidity flows.  Related Reading: Analyst Predicts 10x Rally For XRP Price If THis Trend Repeats @unkownDLT argues that capturing even a small share of about 5-10% of the global value transfer market would require the cryptocurrency to be worth at least $1,000 to operate efficiently. From this viewpoint, XRP’s high potential value is a necessity.  Typically, trillions of dollars move across borders through banks, clearing houses, and collateral markets each day. The analyst suggests that if XRP were to serve as a bridge asset for major institutions and cross-border payment systems, its price would need to be high enough to prevent the blockchain network from running out of usable supply. In essence, a higher valuation would allow the network to handle larger transaction volumes without requiring enormous amounts of XRP for every transfer.  @unkownDLT explained that a low-value asset cannot serve as an effective settlement buffer for global finance. On the other hand, a higher-value token would provide more usable liquidity and offer greater stability and lower volatility. Since its inception, XRP has had a fixed number of units, so a rise in its price is one of the few ways to scale its capacity to handle trillions of dollars in daily global inflows.  XRP’s Price Discovery And True Value In a separate post, @unkownDLT revealed that XRP has yet to experience a price discovery. Currently, the cryptocurrency is in a downtrend and has consistently failed to reclaim previous highs. The analyst has set XRP’s price discovery target above $3.4, representing a 69% increase from its current price of around $2.00. He says that technical patterns do not drive this bullish target, but the emergence of new market conditions.  Related Reading: The Bull And Bear Scenario For XRP That Could Play Out In November According to @unkownDLT, XRP has never traded in an environment shaped by institutional inflows, regulatory clarity, Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), or a global shift toward distributed ledger infrastructure. With these elements converging, he believes the next cycle will behave differently from past market cycles.  The analyst has also highlighted that XRP’s true value becomes visible only when institutions require a neutral asset to settle tokenized value across interconnected networks. He described the cryptocurrency as a universal clearing layer that bridges settlement environments and enables seamless movement across digital financial systems.

On December 1, 2025, Ripple announced a major regulatory upgrade in Singapore, reinforcing its ambition to make XRP a central instrument for global payments. The expanded license allows the company to streamline cross-border money transfers, expand its payments infrastructure, and provide faster, more transparent settlements to financial institutions worldwide. Ripple Intensifies Its Global Payments Playbook The Singapore regulatory upgrade extends the scope of Ripple’s Major Payment Institution (MPI) license, giving its subsidiary, Ripple Markets APAC Pte. Ltd., authority to operate a fully regulated, end-to-end payments platform. The license enables Ripple to handle fund collection, secure custody, token conversion, and final payouts within a single operational framework. XRP and Ripple’s stablecoin RLUSD are embedded into the system, consolidating complex cross-border processes into a fast, compliant, and transparent environment. Related Reading: The Bitcoin Price Crash To $41,000: There’s A Shark In The Water This upgrade positions Ripple as a turnkey solution for banks, corporates, and fintechs. By managing both regulatory compliance and the technology infrastructure, Ripple removes the fragmentation that slows legacy systems. These institutions now have a single point of contact, reducing complexity and making operations more efficient. Ripple is also expanding its geographic reach through strategic partnerships. Its collaboration with Bahrain Fintech Bay allows the company to run pilot programs, real-world payment trials, and early deployment of token-driven services in the Gulf region. These initiatives help Ripple establish liquidity corridors, embed its infrastructure into local financial ecosystems, and build familiarity with regional regulators. Financially, Ripple strengthened its position with a $500 million funding round in November 2025, which valued the company at roughly $40 billion. The capital is being directed toward scaling payment infrastructure, enhancing enterprise tools, and expanding its stablecoin program. With these resources, Ripple can roll out its technology faster, integrate with new partners more efficiently, and advance its dominance in the institutional payments market. XRP’s Expanding Utility In Ripple’s Global Framework XRP remains the settlement engine of Ripple’s infrastructure, providing instant liquidity, rapid transaction settlement, and multi-currency interoperability. This functionality allows Ripple to address high-friction payment corridors, such as those in Africa, where it works with regional providers to replace slow correspondent banking chains with XRP-enabled settlements. In the Asia-Pacific region, growing on-chain activity and rising institutional demand create favorable conditions for token-based cross-border payments. The Singapore MPI upgrade now offers a regulated launchpad to deliver XRP-powered rails across these high-growth regions. Related Reading: Pundit Shares XRP Fact That Will ‘Blow Your Mind’ Building on this foundation, Ripple is creating a vertically integrated ecosystem where fiat, stablecoins, and digital assets operate through a unified platform. Within this framework, XRP bridges currencies, provides deep liquidity, and executes transactions faster than traditional systems. Each regulatory approval, partnership, and infrastructure deployment further embeds XRP into the backbone of global financial infrastructure. Together, these milestones illustrate Ripple’s multi-market strategy: expanding regulatory clarity, deploying robust infrastructure, and demonstrating real-world XRP utility. The Singapore upgrade is a decisive step in this progression, reinforcing Ripple’s steady movement toward making XRP a central tool for cross-border payment systems.

XRP price has formed a bullish cross on its weekly Stochastic RSI, creating a bullish sign for the cryptocurrency at a time when its price has been struggling to break away from the $2 region. The cryptocurrency has spent the past several days moving into a downturn, and buyers will now be looking to defend $2. Even though momentum has been limited, new inflows from recently launched XRP ETFs have kept sentiment from turning full-on bearish.  XRP Stochastic RSI Undergoes Bullish Weekly Cross According to crypto analyst ChartNerd, XRP has just printed a bullish cross on its weekly Stochastic RSI while still sitting deep in oversold territory. The chart he shared highlights how the blue %K line has curved upward and crossed above the orange %D line at one of the lowest points of the cycle.  Related Reading: Analyst Says Get Ready For XRP Price Above $4 This Cycle With this move, the indicator has now repeated a structure that previously marked major turning points during XRP’s past market swings. Oversold weekly conditions paired with a confirmed cross are useful in predicting the early stages of trend reversals, especially when they occur after extended downside momentum.  ChartNerd pointed out that this same configuration appeared twice recently, first in 2024 and again in 2025, and both instances produced powerful rallies. The 2024 cross preceded a surge of more than 600%, at which point the XRP price went from trading around $0.5 to trading above $3.  The mid-2025 cross delivered a smaller yet still significant 130% run, at which point the XRP price went from hovering around $2.1 to breaking new all-time highs above $3.6 in July.  As shown in the chart below, these earlier crosses are marked at similar low points, forming a repeating rhythm of sharp recoveries whenever the weekly Stochastic RSI resets and turns up. The current setup is in the same zone, and this opens up speculation that XRP’s price action may be forming the base of its next major upward leg. Is Another Major XRP Pump Approaching? Although past performance does not dictate what happens next, the indicator’s consistency on the weekly timeframe is difficult to ignore. XRP’s price is again positioned inside a compressed region just as it was before its previous large rallies. This time, the price zone to take note of is around $2. Related Reading: What The Rapid XRP Outlfows From Crypto Exchanges Mean For The Price If buyers regain strength and the wider crypto market conditions improve, most notably Bitcoin climbing back above $100,000, then the probability of a stronger XRP reaction increases. The only thing going well right now for XRP is the inflows into US-based Spot XRP ETFs, with $89.65 million worth of new institutional funds coming in on December 1. A rally similar to the 130% rebound seen during the previous cycle would lift XRP from $2 to about $4.60. A repeat of the much larger 600% surge would place the token above $14. This creates a potential range between $4.60 and $14 if the pattern repeats itself. Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com

According to market observers, this week could mark a turning point for XRP as five spot ETFs trade at the same time for the first full week. 21Shares’ XRP fund (TOXR) launched today, joining Bitwise, Grayscale, Franklin Templeton and Canary Capital. Reports have disclosed that ETF inflows have already topped Over $660 million in less than a month, with zero outflows across 10 consecutive trading days. Related Reading: Bitcoin Miners Face A Harsh December: Rising BTC Difficulty, Falling Hashprice 5 ETFs Trade Together Bitwise recently increased its XRP holdings to 80 million tokens. ETF managers now hold more than $687 million in assets, which represents just over 300 million XRP on record. 21Shares debuted with a $500,000 seed basket and charges a 0.50% management fee. Based on reports, competition among issuers will reveal how aggressively these funds plan to keep buying over the long term. Demand Model A price-path sensitivity simulation run by Mohamed Bangura was shared by analysts and taken up by commentators. The model used a baseline ETF demand of 74.5 million XRP per day, total exchange supply of 2.7 billion XRP, and an escrow release of 300 million XRP every 30 days. Next week is a big milestone for XRP. We will have the first full week of trading with 5 pure spot ETF’s running in competition. It’s going to tell us ALOT by the end of week what we can expect for these funds acquiring XRP for the long term. https://t.co/S3TENqa4PP pic.twitter.com/LQ48QLKcgh — Chad Steingraber (@ChadSteingraber) November 30, 2025 Elasticity values of 0.2, 0.5 and 1.0 were tested over 180 days. The outcomes showed that low elasticity can rapidly drain exchange-held supply, while higher elasticity can produce sharper price spikes as OTC liquidity absorbs flows. That result has many traders watching liquidity statistics closely. Liquidity Pressure Builds Jake Claver, CEO of Digital Ascension Group, warned that private OTC and dark-pool channels may be running thin. He estimated that about 800 million XRP of private liquidity was absorbed in the first week of ETF accumulation. Because much ETF buying happens off-exchange, price action has not yet matched the tightening supply, and markets may see more abrupt moves when funds are forced to source coins from public exchanges. Whales Reshuffle Balances Meanwhile, reports have disclosed changes among large holders. The top 10,000 wallets now hold 51.39 billion XRP, or about 85% of circulating supply. In one day, 78 new wallets took in 77.324 million XRP. One wallet reportedly collected 35 million XRP, another grabbed 3.63 million, and six wallets added 1.99 million each. ????

Related Reading: $300 Million Crypto Bet: Kazakhstan’s Central Bank Gears Up What Comes Next Analysts say the current setup is a test of liquidity more than a simple demand story. ETF holdings of roughly 300 million XRP are sizable but still small compared with potential daily demand if inflows stay high and additional funds launch. If OTC channels dry up and ETFs must buy on exchanges, volatility could rise quickly. Traders and portfolio managers will be watching order books, OTC reports and ETF filings in the coming days to see how the supply picture changes in practice.

A sudden drop in XRP balances across major crypto exchanges has led to speculations about how this might affect the cryptocurrency’s price action. The movement was highlighted by analyst Vincent Van Code, who explained that the transfers are not simply a sign of long-term holders scooping up supply.  Instead, he pointed to the expanding influence of newly launched Spot XRP ETFs, which are now absorbing a significant share of market activity that once took place on retail platforms. ETF Demand Is Pulling Liquidity Away From Exchanges Van Code noted that billions of XRP leaving Binance, Upbit, and Kraken are largely flowing into ETF custodial wallets. This changes the way the market reacts to buying and selling pressure because retail exchanges now operate with thinner liquidity. When daily trading volume on those platforms averaged around the multi-billion-dollar range, it required very large orders to create noticeable price movement.  Related Reading: Why XRP Will Not Reach $100 By End Of Year Despite ETF Launch Now that volume has contracted, even moderate-sized trades can produce sharp intraday swings. The effect is a market environment that is fundamentally supported by ETF buying, yet increasingly sensitive to smaller sell-offs or sudden bids. Even as exchange liquidity drops, Van Code noted that high-frequency trading firms are preventing price dislocations. These groups have already mastered the arbitrage models used in Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, and they have now adapted the same systems for XRP.  Whenever the ETF price drifts above or below its underlying value, the bots immediately correct the gap, keeping both markets tightly aligned. This mechanism makes sure that XRP still gets purchased during ETF creation events and provides a layer of structural stability, even though retail charts may begin to show more frequent spikes and dips. What This Means For XRP’s Approach To New Price Highs In Van Code’s view, the long-term picture for XRP is strengthened by this shift, even though the short-term experience for traders may become more uncomfortable. When XRP enjoyed daily spot volumes in the range of $2 billion to $3 billion on exchanges, you would typically need more than $200 million in concentrated buying or selling to push the price 5% to 10% in either direction.  Related Reading: Analyst Predicts 10x Rally For XRP Price If This Trend Repeats Now that on-exchange volume has dropped toward levels below $1 billion a day, the equation looks very different. A sell order or resistance wall of around $15 million can now swing XRP by roughly 12% to 18% within a single hour in these thinner conditions. However, the saving grace is these arbitrage bots.  According to the analyst, XRP is still on track to reach $5. However, until the price adapts to reduced spot volume on exchanges, traders should be prepared for air pockets up to 20% in price, where relatively modest buy or sell flows can cause outsized moves.

XRP is entering December with a mix of unusual market signals, steady price action, and renewed bullish expectations from analysts and prediction platforms. Related Reading: $300 Million Crypto Bet: Kazakhstan’s Central Bank Gears Up Despite the general instability and uncertainty in the crypto market, traders continue to monitor XRP’s behavior above the $2.0 range as new data points shape sentiment. XRP's price trends to the downside on the daily chart. Source: XRPUSD on Tradingview One-Sided Liquidations Highlight Market Imbalance Liquidation data from CoinGlass recorded an unusual reading this week after XRP posted $0 in short liquidations during a one-hour window. All losses came from long positions, totaling about $128,000. Such a clean one-sided liquidation profile is rare in active derivatives markets and immediately stood out across the crypto sector. Other major assets, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum showed typical liquidation activity on both sides. For XRP, the imbalance suggested that leveraged traders were heavily positioned for upside, leaving long holders exposed even to small price movements. Despite this, XRP’s price has not been immune to the broader market downturn, which saw the total crypto market cap drop by more than 5%. XRP slipped toward the $2.04 area, but analysts note that the $2.00 zone remains a key support level. On the upside, $2.20 continues to act as the immediate resistance level to watch. Technical Outlook Points to a Potential December Breakout XRP ended November down more than 17%, mirroring a broad market decline that has seen Bitcoin fall to $86,700 and several altcoins record double-digit losses. This drop came despite positive developments, including strong early inflows into newly approved crypto ETFs and the growth of Ripple USD (RLUSD). On the charts, XRP continues to trade around the Murrey Math Lines pivot. Analysts highlight a bullish flag pattern forming on the eight-hour timeframe, which is typically a continuation structure that may trigger a breakout. A successful move higher could send the token toward $2.73, the next major resistance. Mixed Prediction Market Signals but Strong Community Confidence Prediction markets are split on XRP’s near-term prospects. Kalshi data shows a 69% probability that XRP will end the year with a positive return, reflecting strengthened sentiment after weeks of consolidation. In contrast, Polymarket assigns a 99% chance to XRP reclaiming the ATH by 2026.

Related Reading: 320 Ether On The Move: Bhutan Ramps Up Its Staking Game XRP Must Close Above $2.60 To Keep Bullish Momentum Intact Egrag’s first decisive level is at $2.60, which matches with the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level on the monthly chart. The analyst described a close above this region as bullish but the asset would not yet be fully clear of danger. The chart shows XRP repeatedly testing this price level in the first half of the year before breaking above it in July. However, the most recent breakdown in Q2 2025 has now put the price level in focus again. The analysis becomes more aggressive once price action breaks above $3.40. EGRAG identified this as the 0.888 Fibonacci level, one of the final retracement zones. According to him, a close above this level confirms a super-bullish macro breakout, which he summarized with the phrase “we are so back.” The chart reinforces this idea by showing a tight compression beneath this upper 0.888 Fib cluster, and that a decisive breakout could lead to a rapid move into new all-time high prices if there’s enough buying pressure.

He warned that a close below the 21-month EMA would mean a severe failure of the bullish trend structure. His wording was intentionally harsh, noting that such a breakdown would mean “we are f**ked, no sugar-coating it.” The chart shows the 21 EMA currently sitting around the $1.83-$1.90 price zone, forming the final major support on the monthly timeframe. Losing this level would drag XRP back into a deeper corrective zone and finally undo most of the price advancement made this year. A significant development showed up towards the end of the week that aligns with the bullish continuation Egrag outlined. 21Shares confirmed that its US Spot XRP ETF, which is listed under the ticker TOXR, has received SEC approval and will officially launch on Monday.

If inflows follow the early strength seen from other issuers, the ETFs could reinforce the bullish case Egrag mapped on the chart, especially if the XRP price is able to cross above $2.60 in December.

Crypto analyst ChartNerd has predicted that the XRP price could rally 10x if a specific trend repeats. The analyst also revealed what needs to happen for the altcoin to invalidate this potential parabolic rally.   XRP Price Could Rally 10x If This 2017 Pattern Plays Out In an X post, ChartNerd predicted that the XRP price could rally 1,000% if a bullish pattern from the 2017 bull cycle plays out. The analyst noted that during the 2017 euphoric run, the altcoin had a 3-month cool-off period where it successfully dropped towards its 3-month 20-EMA for a retest before a 25x move to the upside.   Related Reading: Analyst Says Get Ready For XRP Price Above $4 This Cycle ChartNerd revealed that the XRP price has now witnessed the exact same set-up in this 2025 bull cycle. The altcoin recorded a huge breakout last year and is now seeing a 3-month cool-off period towards a 3-month 20-EMA retest. The analyst stated that if history is set to repeat, XRP could see a 10x upside move, signaling a blow-off top.   The analyst also alluded to the 2021 lower high, which he noted ties up with both the monthly candle close highs from 2017 and also the SEC lawsuit, which is believed to have suppressed the XRP price during the 2021 cycle. ChartNerd added that to invalidate this potential rally, XRP will need to close below its 3-month 20-EMA at $1.20. Until then, he noted that the bulls remain in control.  Meanwhile, ChartNerd outlined $8, $13, and $27 as the potential top-out points for the XRP price. Notably, a rally to any of these price targets will mark a new all-time high (ATH) for the altcoin. Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto had also previously predicted that XRP could reach $27 in this bull run if it mirrors the 2017 price action.  XRP Could Be The Next Crypto To Record A Major Run Market commentator Milk Road suggested in an X post that the XRP price could soon record a major run. The platform cited bullish fundamentals for the altcoin, including the fact that RLUSD crossed $1 billion in market cap in record time. The run to this milestone is said to be faster than almost any stablecoin Ripple has ever pushed.  Related Reading: Analyst Predicts XRP Price Will Hit $100 Before Bitcoin Hits $1 Million Furthermore, Milk Road noted that Abu Dhabi’s ADGM has opened the door for institutions to use RLUSD as real collateral, which is also bullish for the XRP price. The market commentator stated that global liquidity with regulated on-ramps could mean the kind of flows that crypto hasn’t seen in months. It is also worth noting that XRP is seeing significant flows into its ecosystem through the U.S. spot ETFs.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.18, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Interest in XRP has increased massively after the launch of Spot XRP ETFs, leading some supporters to float a $100 per token rally before the end of the year. That scenario, however, appears highly unrealistic when basic market fundamentals are considered.  In a recent post on X, Zach Humphries dismissed triple-digit predictions, calling them “delusional” and warning that they mislead people who don’t grasp the math behind market valuation. The Market Cap Reality Check Any attempt to peg XRP at $100 must first contend with its circulating supply and the resulting total valuation that such a price implies. According to Humphries, pushing XRP to $100 would demand a market capitalization of about $6 trillion for the cryptocurrency. That figure amounts to a more than 40-fold increase over current market cap levels, a leap so vast it would require inflows that dwarf anything seen in the crypto industry to date. Related Reading: The Bull And Bear Scenario For XRP That Could Play Out In November The entire crypto market itself has a total capitalization of about $3 trillion. Pushing a single altcoin like XRP to $6 trillion in value would mean the coin alone becomes more than twice as large as the entire crypto market combined.  XRP reaching $100 is a 4,445% increase from its current price level. Keeping this in mind, it is really unrealistic for XRP to reach $100 even in the next year alone. Therefore, those making claims that the asset can touch $100 before 2025 ends, with only one month left on the calendar, disregard how capital moves, how long accumulation cycles take, and how much work is involved in building market caps of this size.  The recent emergence of XRP ETFs does offer improved access for institutional and retail investors. However, the expansion needed for XRP to reach $100 is so large that no ETF launch or last-minute rally could generate the necessary inflows or supply shock within the next 35 days. Long-Term Potential Still Exists Although the $100 target within the next few weeks appears unattainable, that does not necessarily diminish the long-term appeal of XRP. Enthusiasts who see effects from adoption, regulatory developments, and institutional inflows may still believe in significant upside over a multi-year timeframe. Zach Humpries, for one, noted that he is still very bullish on Ripple/XRP long-term. Related Reading: Pundit Reveals Why XRP Price At $1,000 Is Not A Dream – ‘It’s Math’ The purpose of Humphries’ warning message was to restore perspective, not dampen long-term bullish sentiment. The important message is for XRP enthusiasts to shift their focus away from unrealistic valuations this year and instead consider targets that align with actual market cap growth.  In a follow-up reply to comments on his post, he mentioned a far more grounded scenario of XRP reaching the $5 region by Christmas. However, this is also very bullish and is dependent on optimism returning to the wider crypto market. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

A crypto analyst has issued a decisive projection that challenges the long timelines often associated with major price milestones for Bitcoin. His outlook was presented in response to the ultra-bullish forecasts from Michael Saylor and Jack Mallers, who have spoken openly about the possibility of Bitcoin reaching between $1 million and $20 million per coin.  Rather than focusing on Bitcoin’s distant targets, the analyst directed attention to XRP, insisting that XRP will reach $100 long before Bitcoin touches the seven-figure mark. Analyst Says XRP Will Reach $100 Before Bitcoin’s Million-Dollar Target There have been many bullish predictions of Bitcoin breaking above the $1 million mark in recent months, with notable names like Michael Saylor and Cathie Wood pointing to million-dollar targets.  Related Reading: Analyst Claims XRP Will Flip Bitcoin As These Developments Play Out However, an analyst who goes by the name 24HRSCRYPTO on the social media platform X referenced Saylor and Mallers’ price prediction, which places future Bitcoin valuations in the tens of millions per coin and implies a market cap approaching $500 trillion. He contrasted those long-range projections with what he believes is a more attainable and nearer-term milestone for XRP.  Punching in the numbers shows that XRP is a 4,445% move away from $100 based on its current price level of around $2.2. Bitcoin, on the other hand, is 990% away from the $1 million price. Even with that difference, the analyst noted, “You will see XRP at $100 before Bitcoin hits $1 million.” The statement points to the view that XRP is positioned for faster price growth in the foreseeable future, as seen by price dynamics in the past few months. The crypto is increasingly being positioned in a situation where demand and adoption of the Ripple ecosystem could take it to new heights. On the other hand, Bitcoin’s price action is slowing down relative to XRP. Notably, technical analysis of the XRP/BTC pair places XRP on the path to outperforming Bitcoin in the coming weeks and months.  The Altcoin Will Hit $1,000 Before Bitcoin Touches $19 Million The analyst extended his projection even further by asserting that XRP could rally to $1,000 before Bitcoin comes close to the $19 million figure referenced by Saylor. Such a valuation for Bitcoin would imply a market capitalization of roughly $500 trillion, a scale far beyond anything seen in global financial history.  Related Reading: Analyst Claims XRP Price Will Surge To $220 Due To ETFs, But Is This Possible? Measured from today’s levels, Bitcoin would need to climb roughly 20,635% to reach the $19 million mark. XRP’s path to $1,000 amounts to an even larger jump of about 45,300%, which corresponds to a market cap of $60 trillion based on its current circulating supply. Still, XRP reaching $1,000 is, in his view, more feasible than Bitcoin reaching millions per coin. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com

Crypto analyst NeverWishing has predicted that the XRP price will rally to as high as $1,115. He highlighted three paths for XRP to reach this target, in what the analyst described as the final bull run for the altcoin.  Analyst Maps Out Final XRP Bull Run Rally To $1,115 In a TradingView post, the crypto analyst mapped out three paths for XRP to rally to the $1,115 target. They tagged the first path as the immediate delivery, the second as a normal delivery, and the third as one that will trigger only if the XRP price stays suppressed. For the third path, NeverWishing stated that a final backup execution could happen between January 1 and 6 next year. Related Reading: The Bull And Bear Scenario For XRP That Could Play Out In November For path A, NeverWishing stated that it will start between this month and next month, with the first impulse sparking an XRP rally to between $30 and $33. The secondary spike will send the altcoin to $186, while a consolidation phase will lead to a climb toward $285. After that, XRP will rally to its final blow-off target of $1,115.  NeverWishing described the second path as the fastest, stating it will occur between January and March next year. The first stop will be between $30 and $33 for XRP, after which volatility waves will occur through February and March. The altcoin will then break into the macro expansion zone, with the major target at $285 and the final target at $1,115. The Third Path For XRP The analyst noted that the third path is smoother and slightly delayed. NeverWishing also reiterated that this is a suppressed variant and will only happen if the first and second paths fail. They explained that if the XRP price stays held down, then the algorithm will reset and fire between January 1 and 6 next year. Related Reading: Why XRP Price Crash Below $2 Is Not A Problem – $20 Is Still The Target XRP will have the same opening move as the first two paths, rallying to between $30 and $33. It will then have the same structure as the second path, with the macro targets being $285 and $1,115. NeverWishing then outlined the key timing windows for XRP as it eyes a rally to this $1,115 target.  The first key timing is between this month and January 2026, which marks the entry and breakout window. The analyst tagged March 21, 2026, as the mid-cycle reversal point in the XRP final bull run. August 14, 2026, marks the “warning zone,” while the pullback is expected between October and November 2026. Lastly, NeverWishing stated that January 1, 2027, is the final liquidity window.   At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.20, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

A crypto analyst has made a bold statement about XRP’s current price behavior, arguing that the cryptocurrency’s slow movements are necessary to build strong support levels. The analyst highlights the importance of consolidation and long-term accumulation, suggesting that XRP’s support levels are laying the groundwork for a market reset and a significant price surge.  The Mind-Blowing Truth About XRP On Wednesday, crypto market expert Diep Sanh took to X, announcing that he had a mind-blowing message to share with the crypto community. The analyst explained that XRP’s current price action is far more important than many investors realize. According to him, extended periods of consolidation, as XRP is currently experiencing, lay the foundation for major rallies. Related Reading: Bitcoin Dead Cat Bounce: Analyst Reveals What To Expect As Price Recovers Sanh emphasized that when XRP spends a significant time near the $2 mark, it gives investors the chance to accumulate at that price. He explained that this accumulation builds a powerful layer of support, which can help stabilize the market during future corrections. He also noted that once XRP climbs to a higher region and stays there long enough to form a higher low, a new wave of investors usually enters. This creates the next support base and sets the stage for a major upward move.   Sanh hinted that XRP could reach dramatic price targets, such as $10 or even $100. However, it would require several of these strong support layers to form over time. Each layer represents greater confidence in the asset and more liquidity to sustain a stronger market. The analyst noted that investors or traders who are frustrated by XRP’s low price and recent downturn are missing the bigger picture. He highlighted that they do not understand how these gradual accumulation phases work or how they can contribute to long-term gains.  XRP Remains One Of The Best Crypto Plays After Price Dip In a subsequent analysis, Sanh reaffirmed his confidence in XRP’s future outlook following the recent market downturn. He noted that XRP remains one of the strongest crypto plays despite its recent price crash. The analyst emphasized that the cryptocurrency continues to stand out due to the utility of the XRP Ledger (XRPL), a blockchain network engineered for fast and efficient global payments.   Related Reading: XRP 100x Rally To $225: Why The Only Place To Go Is Up Sanh noted that this unique design of XRPL gives it an advantage over many large-cap competitors. Moreover, with regulatory uncertainty largely resolved after the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) dispute, the analyst highlights that XRP has already outperformed most top assets.  Currently, XRP is trading at $2.2, experiencing a slight recovery despite recording weeks of choppy price action. Sanh disclosed that investors and traders tend to treat such corrections as strategic accumulation periods rather than signs of weakness. He argued that if XRP continues to expand in areas such as cross-border payments, tokenized asset markets, and stablecoin development, it would benefit its underlying structure. He added that these expanding sectors will also provide long-term support for the cryptocurrency’s growth potential.   Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com
