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.

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. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com
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.

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
According to a recent video by Edward Farina, founder of Alpha Lions Academy, XRP holders should think twice before selling every time the market dips. He pointed out that on May 12, XRP fell from $2.47 to $2.33—a 5.60% drop in 24 hours. Such moves stoke fear. But Farina says sticking around might pay off in the long run. Related Reading: Trump Token Mania: Over 6,000% Pump Or Classic Solana Trap? Strong Reminder To Hold Farina urged investors not to let a 20–30% pullback scare them out. He warned that selling during a small slide often kicks people out just before the next surge. When XRP fell to around $0.50–$$0.70 in past years, many sold. Those same coins later climbed by hundreds of percent. Holding through the downturn would have turned a small stake into a much larger gain. Big Gains Lost By Early Sellers Based on reports, people who bailed at $0.60 missed out on big rallies. That drop to the $0.50–$0.70 range represented a massive buying opportunity. But paranoia took over. Investors sold to shield themselves from more losses. They thought the dip would last. It didn’t. XRP’s price shot up, leaving many behind.

REPOST ???? only if you are still holding! pic.twitter.com/mcGk5urQdd — EDO FARINA ???? XRP (@edward_farina) May 12, 2025 Simple Three-Step Approach Farina laid out what he calls a clear plan: buy the coin, hold it long term, and stay brave when the market gets shaky. He dismissed the need for complex tactics like day‑trading or staking. He even said you don’t need a huge pile of cash to get started. Instead, courage during volatility is what counts. That message is meant to be easy to follow. Institutional Interest And Conviction He also spoke about doing a “conviction move” by studying XRP’s tech, financials, and geopolitical role. According to Farina, XRP serves as a bridge currency for fiat transfers. He claims this has drawn the eye of big players like the IMF and the Bank for International Settlements. He believes this backing shows that demand could stay strong. Warning On Risks And Reality Farina admitted he once sold in panic and missed out. Now, he says he’d hold his XRP even if the price fell to zero. That’s a bold stance. Yet, real markets can be unpredictable. No amount of courage can replace the need for risk checks and exit plans.

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 price started a fresh decline below the $2.520 zone. The price is now trading below $2.480 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a connecting bullish trend line forming with support at $2.3550 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken).

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 – $2.350 and $2.320. Major Resistance Levels – $2.40 and $2.450.
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.

Ripple’s ongoing lawsuit with the US SEC is moving through the courts, and some in the XRP community say “judgment day” is close. XRP pushed past $2 late last year, only to slip back under that mark recently. For most of 2024, it hovered near $0.50, a range many traders saw as a barrier. Now, with fresh legal hurdles, believers and skeptics are both bracing for what comes next. Related Reading: Analysis: Crypto Heats Up As $35 Billion Enters Market In Under A Month Legal Battle Takes A Detour According to court records, Judge Analisa Torres blocked a joint settlement on May 15, 2025. Ripple hoped to pay a reduced $50 million fine and lift a permanent injunction. Instead, the judge ruled that the motion had cited the wrong procedural rule—Rule 62.1 instead of Rule 60. Ripple and the SEC must refile under the correct rule. That move won’t overhaul the timeline, but it does mean more filings and a delay that could last months. Very soon, nothing will be holding XRP back. No lawsuit. No distractions. At that point, it all comes down to the utility we’ve been talking about for years. Judgment day is coming—and we’ll see if we were right. Will we see explosive growth? Or a slow and steady climb?… — All Things XRP (@XRP_investing) May 15, 2025 Community Pushes ‘Judgment Day’ Narrative Based on reports from XRP forums and social feeds, many holders believe “price suppression” has held the token down. They point to the long stay around $0.50 and insist outside forces prevented higher gains. After XRP rallied above $2 at year‑end, talk of suppression faded—until it fell back under $2. Now critics warn that believers are setting themselves up for disappointment, while optimistic voices say judgment day will reveal the truth and clear the way for a big rally. Utility Claims Face Competition Commentators often highlight XRP’s role in cross‑border payments through RippleNet. They predict it could capture a slice of a tokenization market projected to exceed $18 trillion by 2033. But rivals are gearing up. SWIFT is rolling out faster transaction corridors, and platforms like Ethereum, Solana and Algorand are also targeting tokenized assets. So far, real‑world XRP volume remains small compared with its total supply, and widespread adoption has yet to materialize. Bold Price Targets Draw Doubt Some analysts toss around targets of $50, $100 or even $1,000 for XRP once the legal cloud clears. To reach $100, the market cap would need to expand more than 40‑times from today’s levels. A $1,000 price tag would require an even more massive inflow of new money. Few market watchers see that happening without a major institutional push or a breakthrough in cross‑border payment adoption. Related Reading: Bitcoin Outshines All In 2025, Official Report From Russian Central Bank Says Final Ruling Could Set The Stage Ripple and the SEC both say they want this case wrapped up quickly. Yet appeals courts move at their own pace. Even the most optimistic projections point to a final decision in late 2025 or early 2026. When “judgment day” arrives, it could either validate those bullish forecasts or underscore how tough it is for XRP to shake off legal overhangs. Until then, traders will likely watch every court update more closely than utility metrics. For now, it’s still a waiting game—one that could reshape XRP’s next big move.

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.

XRP’s current price has been highlighted by a range of around $2.5 in the past three days. However, this low price hasn’t stopped the idea of an extravagant XRP price from being in the hearts of XRP bull traders and enthusiasts. Against this backdrop of growing confidence, a bold theory suggesting that XRP could surge to $10,000 has come up from a crypto analyst. This extravagant price point is much higher than most predictions based on technical analysis. Notably, this analyst leaned on XRP fundamentals with XRP to show a scenario where its price reaches this point. Analyst Predicts XRP Could Hit $10,000 Between 2027 And 2030 The theory, introduced by a crypto analyst named Remi Relief on the social media platform X, centers on a long-term vision of XRP reaching $10,000 due to widespread adoption in financial institutions and complete activation of its utility features. Related Reading: Analyst Says These Factors Will Drive XRP Price To $1,000, But What Does Market Cap Say? In a post dated May 12, the analyst predicted that this massive XRP price point of $10,000 could materialize between 2027 and 2030. He clarified that the prediction wasn’t dependent on sudden events or institutional price setting but on the natural outcome of XRP functioning at its full potential in global financial systems. However, he also stated that such a price point could manifest as early as 2026. Building on the original post, the analyst has recently expanded on a more detailed vision of a $10,000 XRP. He claimed the existence of two separate XRP ledgers: one for the retail market and another accessible only to around 1,700 institutions and private entities operating under NDAs. According to him, these private participants could already be running tests with drastically different price levels, possibly including the $10,000 mark. He linked this development to recent progress in CBDC trials, especially in France. The analyst also referred to a report discussing the efficiency and performance of various digital currency and payment platforms in terms of Transactions Per Second (TPS) back in 2022. The report focused on CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) test networks. According to the report, the Ripple Private Ledger had a TPS of 1,500 in 2022 during tests for the digital Euro. Although Ripple is not yet at the operational scale of AliPay or the Hamilton Project, future projections of the blockchain’s TPS are still unknown. The Possibility Of A $10,000 Basement Price For The Altcoin The crypto analyst’s theory is based on a future where XRP underpins major financial operations at fixed high values across private networks. The most provocative element of the theory involves Ripple potentially setting a basement price for XRP at $10,000, which would never be breached.

At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.40, down by 2.2% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP price started a downside correction below the $2.50 zone. The price is now consolidating and might find bids near the $2.350 support zone. XRP price started a fresh decline below the $2.550 zone. The price is now trading below $2.50 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a key bearish trend line forming with resistance at $2.420 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The pair might start another increase if it stays above the $2.350 support. XRP Price Dips Further XRP price started a downside correction from the $2.650 zone, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price dipped below the $2.60 and $2.55 levels to enter a short-term bearish zone. The bears were able to push the price below the $2.50 support zone. Finally, the bulls appeared near $2.350. A low was formed at $2.348 and the price is now consolidating losses below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2.650 swing high to the $2.348 low. The price is now trading below $2.50 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $2.420 level. There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance at $2.420 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The first major resistance is near the $2.450 level. The next resistance is $2.50 and the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2.650 swing high to the $2.348 low. A clear move above the $2.50 resistance might send the price toward the $2.60 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.650 resistance or even $2.680 in the near term. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be $2.80. More Losses? If XRP fails to clear the $2.50 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.350 level. The next major support is near the $2.320 level. If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.320 level, the price might continue to decline toward the $2.20 support. The next major support sits near the $2.120 zone. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for XRP/USD is now losing pace in the bearish zone. Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for XRP/USD is now below the 50 level. Major Support Levels – $2.350 and $2.320. Major Resistance Levels – $2.420 and $2.50.
XRP has re-entered a pivotal trading range against Bitcoin (BTC), stirring up excitement as technical signals suggest a potential breakout. This move is reinforcing its bullish position, highlighting three major price targets that could confirm a larger macro rally. XRP Sets Sights On Key Targets Against Bitcoin After months of consolidation, the XRP/BTC trading pair is now back inside a critical triangle formation, which market expert Egrag Crypto has identified as a key price range to watch for potential breakout or breakdown moves. The analyst shared a short-term XRP/BTC chart on X (formerly Twitter), explaining how important this price range is for the trading pair to hit new bullish targets and reach even larger goals. Related Reading: XRP Analyst Highlights Ultimate Targets And Selling Strategy As XRP Price Rebounds This triangle structure, dating back years, acts as a roadmap for XRP/BTC’s potential breakout, but only if it successfully flips certain levels into support. The first major target highlighted by Egrag Crypto is $0.000003033, which represents the upper boundary of the triangle. A decisive breakout above this level would signal a structural shift, confirming a possible bullish breakout from the narrowing wedge. The analyst’s second key target is $0.00003430, the local high from XRP/BTC’s last rally. This price level is crucial for momentum validation, as flipping this into support with strong volume would build strong confidence in the next upward move and show confirmation that it can hold above it. The third and most critical target the XRP/BTC pair is expected to reach is $0.00004300, which aligns with the Fibonacci 1.0 level and XRP/BTC’s previous cycle high. A move beyond this level suggests the beginning of a macro rally, unlocking access to higher Fibonacci extension levels, including: 1.272 Fib ($0.00007244) 1.414 Fib ($0.00009546) 1.618 Fib ($0.00014191) 1.888 Fib ($0.00030000) The Altcoin Must Hold Support Or Risk Macro Breakdown While Egrag Crypto’s breakout targets paint an optimistic picture, the XRP/BTC LTC analysis comes with a stark warning of a potential crash. The analyst has raised alarm bells, warning not to lose the 0.618 Fibonacci level at $0.00002032. Related Reading: XRP Price To Break Out Of Consolidation: The Next Moonshot That Will Lead To $3 This support range acts as the last kind of defense for XRP/BTC’s bullish market structure. The analyst goes as far as to say, “Lose an arm, but don’t lose this range,” emphasizing the importance of maintaining this level. He further predicts that if the pair drops below this support level, it could see a decline to as low as $0.00000611. At the time of the analysis, XRP/BTC was trading at approximately $0.00002516, showing early signs of recovery after dipping below the triangle range. If bulls can defend this level and hold on to their upward momentum, the path toward flipping resistance levels into support becomes potentially clearer. Egrag Crypto has also outlined potential price projections for the XRP based on the bullish scenario where the XRP/BTC pair reaches several upper Fibonacci levels and Bitcoin rallies to key milestones.

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

In a recent post on X, market analyst Andrew Griffiths pointed out that XRP has faced notable rejection at two consecutive resistance levels, first near $2.65, followed by another rejection at $2.57. The inability to hold above $2.57 on the second attempt is particularly telling, as it indicates that sellers may be stepping in earlier, defending lower levels. This pattern raises the risk of a deeper retracement if bullish support doesn’t re-enter the market soon. Volume And Price Divergence At Resistance To provide further context on his recent analysis of XRP, Andrew Griffiths highlighted a critical divergence in volume between recent highs, which might signal a potential weakening in bullish momentum. As XRP reached higher price levels over the past few days, the accompanying trading volume has been progressively decreasing, suggesting that the market’s enthusiasm for higher price levels is fading. This volume-price divergence raises concerns that the upward momentum may not be sustainable without additional support. Related Reading: XRP Price Rejected At Resistance: Why $2.69 Holds The Key Griffiths highlighted the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which still suggests there could be potential for further upward movement in XRP’s price. The RSI remains in a favorable zone, indicating that the market may continue to see bullish pressure, especially if it can break certain resistance levels. However, Griffiths also expressed caution, acknowledging that while the RSI suggests upside potential, the weakening volume makes him reluctant to commit fully to the bullish side just yet. He emphasized the need for confirmation, either through stronger buying volume or a more sustained price move. If XRP fails to sustain its current price levels, Griffiths suggested that a pullback to earlier trend zones is likely, where price could find support and possibly consolidate. Such a move would not necessarily spell the end of the bullish trend but rather signal an opportunity for a better entry point at lower levels. XRP Rejection Signals Growing Uncertainty Among Traders Andrew Griffiths concluded his analysis by highlighting that uncertainty presently reigns in the market, making it difficult to predict the immediate direction of XRP’s price action. While the cryptocurrency has experienced some bullish movement, the mixed signals from volume divergence and resistance rejections have created a situation where neither the bulls nor the bears appear to have full control. Related Reading: XRP Sees Renewed Trader Activity as Market Absorbs Selling Pressure In terms of key levels, Griffiths identified $2.37 as a critical short-term support level that could provide some stability if prices start to retrace. This level has previously served as an important point of support during earlier pullbacks. Should the price hold above this support zone, there’s still potential for a consolidation phase or a continuation of the upward trend if buying pressure picks up again. However, if XRP fails to defend this key level, it could signal downside risk, with a move toward the next support zones. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP price extended gains above the $2.60 zone. The price is now correcting gains from $2.65 and might find bids near the $2.480 zone. XRP price started a fresh increase above the $2.550 zone. The price is now trading above $2.50 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There was a break below a key bullish trend line with support at $2.550 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The pair might start another increase if it stays above the $2.480 support. XRP Price Corrects Some Gains XRP price remained supported above the $2.420 level and started a fresh upward wave, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price was able to surpass the $2.50 and $2.550 levels. The bulls pushed the price above the $2.60 resistance zone. Finally, it tested the $2.650 zone. A high was formed at $2.650 before there was a pullback. The price dipped below $2.550 and the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.4220 swing low to the $2.650 high. Besides, there was a break below a key bullish trend line with support at $2.550 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The price is now trading above $2.50 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $2.550 level. The first major resistance is near the $2.580 level. The next resistance is $2.60. A clear move above the $2.60 resistance might send the price toward the $2.650 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.720 resistance or even $2.750 in the near term. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be $2.880. More Losses? If XRP fails to clear the $2.580 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.510 level and the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.4220 swing low to the $2.650 high. The next major support is near the $2.480 level. If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.480 level, the price might continue to decline toward the $2.450 support. The next major support sits near the $2.420 zone. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for XRP/USD is now losing pace in the bullish zone. Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for XRP/USD is now below the 50 level. Major Support Levels – $2.510 and $2.480. Major Resistance Levels – $2.60 and $2.650.
Market sentiment around the XRP price is flipping bullish as technical indicators and recent chart movements suggest a promising upward trajectory over the next three months. With momentum building, a crypto analyst is now eyeing a potential rally that could push XRP as high as $36. According to a new prediction posted by crypto analyst Dark Defender on X (formerly Twitter), the XRP price is gearing up for a potentially explosive surge to $36. XRP Price Forecasted To Reach $36 The chart analysis shows that XRP has broken through a crucial three-month resistance trendline that has capped its price action since its 2018 peak. This breakout signals a powerful shift in market structure, indicating that the long-standing bearish trend may be over. Related Reading: XRP Price Repeating History? 2017-Like Rally To Send Price To $10 Dark Defender’s three-month candlestick chart applies the Elliott Wave Theory, mapping out a five-wave bullish structure. The analysis shows that Waves 1 and 2 have already played out, and XRP now appears to be entering Wave 3, which is typically seen as the strongest and longest wave. If this Wave 3 pattern holds, XRP could be on the verge of its most powerful rally yet. According to Dark Defender, the upside target could reach as high as $36.76, representing a staggering 423.6% increase. Before XRP reaches this projected price level, Dark Defender has forecasted short—to long-term bullish targets for the cryptocurrency. In the short term, XRP could reach $3.33, with a mid-term goal of $5.85. Additional milestones along the way include key percentage gain levels that may act as interim resistance zones. A 161.8% gain points to a potential price of around $13.81, while a 261.8% surge suggests a move toward $18.96. If momentum continues, the token could push further to $26.87, aligning with a 361.8% increase. On the downside, support levels at $2.3620 and $2.222 are expected to act as strongholds in case of any retracement before continuation. Moving forward, Dark Defender has doubled down on his bullish stance on XRP’s future outlook, referencing a tweet dated March 17 that boldly declared, “XRP is extremely bullish.” Clear Path Ahead For The Altcoin As Resistance Thins Out In an X post released on May 13, Ali Martinez, a prominent crypto analyst, disclosed that on-chain data from Glassnode shows a clear bullish path for XRP, with no signs of major resistance clusters ahead. The analysis based on the UTXO Realized Price Distribution (URPD) indicates that a significant portion of XRP tokens were last moved at lower price levels. Related Reading: XRP Price Macro Channel Breakout That Puts Targets At $17-$55 The chart also highlights a significant support zone at $2.38, where nearly 1.85 billion XRP, amounting to 2.92% of its supply, were last transacted. This concentration of holders could serve as a psychological and technical support level if the market pulls back. Moreover, the absence of large token holdings at higher price ranges suggests that the price could experience a smoother ascent, unburdened by major resistance from profit-takers.

XRP is facing a strong resistance level on its path to the $3 price level and above, with the past 24 hours witnessing some sort of rejection at this resistance level. XRP price action has gradually built momentum in May, leading to a sharp move toward the upper $2.60 range. On May 12, XRP briefly touched $2.63 before retreating slightly, now trading around $2.57. Directly ahead is the major resistance at $2.69, and technical analysis shows that this zone now holds the key to whether XRP can continue its march toward $3.00 or undergo a pullback for consolidation. $2.69 Resistance Is Technical For XRP Price Crypto analyst CasiTrades has highlighted the $2.69 price point as an important resistance level for the XRP price moving forward. According to the analyst’s chart, which accompanied a post on social media platform X, this level represents the 0.236 Fibonacci retracement from XRP’s all-time high and is a key level to watch for correction. Related Reading: XRP Price Marks Confluence Support, Technical Indicators Put Next Stop At $3 Notably, this zone has led to multiple retracements since December 2024, with each attempt seeing sellers quickly step in to defend it. It even proved difficult to break when XRP broke to reach $3.3 in January, and an order block was created on the daily candlestick timeframe just before the ensuing rally above it. As noted by the crypto analyst, momentum indicators have remained relatively muted during XRP’s recent rally. The crypto has also completed what appears to be a full 5-wave Elliott count from the analyst. However, instead of a retracement, the price has pressed forward slowly alongside the rest of the crypto market. This slow, controlled push higher often signals strong underlying demand, strong trend, and heavy accumulation. As it stands, the only thing left to do is to see how the XRP price performs at the $2.69 resistance. Breakout Or Rejection: Two Opposite Outcomes With High Impact The analyst warns that the $2.69 level could be a final barrier before XRP is cleared for a run toward $3.00 and beyond. A confirmed breakout, ideally with a strong daily candle close above this level, would invalidate short-term bearish pressures and cause a run above this level. Related Reading: XRP Price Still On Bullish Path To $5 As Long As This Level Holds However, if $2.69 once again proves too strong for bulls to overcome, the altcoin may enter a temporary cooling-off phase. In this case, the next logical support level is around $2.30, which is close to the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement level. This is another breakout/rebound zone that could offer a healthy reset for the XRP price. In either scenario, the price behavior at $2.69 is expected to set the tone for the rest of May and determine whether XRP can extend its 2025 bullish trend. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.57, up 4% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP price found support at $2.420 and started a fresh increase. The price is now correcting gains from $2.60 and might aim for another increase. XRP price started a fresh increase above the $2.50 zone. The price is now trading above $2.50 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a key bullish trend line forming with support at $2.510 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The pair might start another increase if there is a close above the $2.60 resistance. XRP Price Regains Traction XRP price remained supported above the $2.40 level and started a fresh upward wave, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price was able to surpass the $2.50 and $2.550 levels. The bulls pushed the price above the $2.580 resistance zone to set the pace for more gains. Finally, it tested the $2.60 zone. A high was formed at $2.6050 before there was a pullback. The price dipped below $2.5650 and the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.4220 swing low to the $2.6050 high. The price is now trading above $2.50 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support at $2.510 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $2.60 level. The first major resistance is near the $2.650 level. The next resistance is $2.720. A clear move above the $2.720 resistance might send the price toward the $2.80 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.850 resistance or even $2.880 in the near term. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be $2.950. Downside Correction? If XRP fails to clear the $2.60 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.510 level and the trend line. The next major support is near the $2.492 level and the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.4220 swing low to the $2.6050 high. If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.4920 level, the price might continue to decline toward the $2.450 support. The next major support sits near the $2.420 zone. 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 – $2.510 and $2.4920. Major Resistance Levels – $2.60 and $2.650.
Crypto analyst BarriC has asserted that an XRP price rally to between $10 and $20 would only be the start for the altcoin. The analyst still expects XRP to rally to four digits and has in the past explained why he believes such an ambitious price target is possible. XRP Price To Still Rally To $1,000 In an X post, BarriC stated that a potential XRP price rally to between $10 and $20 is just the beginning. He added that the long game for the altcoin is $1,000. The analyst urged market participants to be prepared for life-changing and generational wealth. In his other X posts, BarriC provided a roadmap for how it can reach four digits. Related Reading: Analyst Says These Factors Will Drive XRP Price To $1,000, But What Does Market Cap Say? In one post, he stated that once the XRP price reclaims $3, it will move rapidly to $5. The analyst predicts that the altcoin will then skyrocket into double digits, sitting comfortably at between $10 and $20 as a new all-time high. However, BarriC believes that is just the start for XRP as it will still reach $100 and then $1,000. He asserted that these price targets for XRP will happen much sooner than people think. In another post, the analyst alluded to banks using XRP as one factor that could spark this XRP price surge. BarriC stated that the fact that investors can still accumulate the altcoin at around $2 means that banks aren’t utilizing it yet. The analyst said that once banks and financial institutions worldwide adopt and utilize XRP in the way they conduct finance, the altcoin will skyrocket to $1,000. He referenced the 2017 bull cycle when the token’s price went from $0.006 to $3.80, which is why he is confident that such a parabolic surge is possible. The Altcoin Approaching Key Resistance Levels In an X post, crypto analyst CasiTrades stated that the XRP price is approaching key resistance levels following its latest surge. She highlighted $2.69 as the major resistance, as this price level is also the .236 Fib retracement from the all-time high (ATH) and a key level to watch for a correction. Related Reading: XRP Price To $1,000: Analyst Reveals Target For When Banks Start Using XRP Commenting on the current price action, she noted that what stands out is the continued price increase despite low momentum and a completed 5-wave count. The analyst remarked that this slow, controlled push higher often signals strong underlying demand, strong trend, and heavy accumulation. CasiTrades stated that if the XRP price breaks and holds above $2.69, it would open the door for an explosive move toward $3. However, if the altcoin doesn’t hold this level, she claimed it could record a short-term dip toward $2.30 for a reset. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.50, up almost 5% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP’s price action in the past seven days has been nothing short of impressive. The cryptocurrency reached above $2.6 again in the past 24 hours, the first time doing so since early March, about two months ago. This movement has aligned with the uptrend projected by multiple analysts, who are referencing Fibonacci levels to chart XRP’s future trajectory. Notably, a crypto analyst’s interesting outlook on social media platform X using Fibonacci levels suggests that XRP will reach $8.40 and $27 this cycle. Analyst Points To Fibonacci Targets At $8.40 and $27 XRP’s price structure in the current cycle has been significantly shaped by its breakout above a tightening wedge formation, which had compressed price action from 2021 through the early months of 2024. This formation, clearly visible on the monthly candlestick timeframe, served as a multi-year consolidation zone that capped upward momentum and defined a range-bound market. Related Reading: XRP Price At $9 In September: Gann Angle Resistance Grid Predicts Surge The eventual breakout from this structure ended a prolonged bear market and began a fresh bullish phase. Although the past few months have been full of corrections and consolidations after XRP reached $3.31 in January, recent market momentum points to the next leg upward. A crypto analyst on social media platform X has pointed to two Fibonacci extension levels that could serve as the target zones during XRP’s next impulsive wave up. According to the analysis, XRP reached both its 1.272 and 1.618 Fibonacci extension targets in the last cycle after breaking from a similar multi-year wedge accumulation structure in 2017. Interestingly, this move in 2017, leading up to the current price action, is part of the same Elliott wave count structure. As shown in the chart, XRP launched from a low of $0.00310 in 2017 to an all-time high of $3.40 in 2018 during its third wave (labeled (3)), hitting both Fibonacci extension levels of 1.272 and 1.618 before retracing in wave four. According to the analyst, the current price action since 2020 constitutes the formation of the fifth impulse wave. Applying the same extension logic to the current structure from the 2020 low of $0.11379, a move to these Fibonacci extensions points to a target of $8.40 at 1.272 and $27.23 at the 1.618 extension. XRP To Reach $8.40 Or Even $27 This Market Cycle? Whether XRP can realistically surge to $8.40 or even $27 during this market cycle is yet to be seen. Although the 2017 to 2018 rally where XRP climbed over 1,000% in a matter of weeks offers a compelling case, market conditions today are more complex. The amount of inflows and trading volume needed to push the XRP price to such levels would be far greater than those witnessed before. Related Reading: XRP Price Cross That Led To 20x Rally In 2017 Returns However, from a technical perspective, these Fibonacci targets can be reached when considering how similar price structures have behaved in the past. An example is the rally from $0.00310 to over $3.40 in 2017. One similar analysis from crypto analyst Ali Martinez suggests that the XRP price could reach $15 very soon. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.50, up by 3.4% in the past 24 hours with an intraday high of $2.61. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com
XRP price action on lower timeframes, specifically under the 4-hour mark, remains notably uncertain, with erratic fluctuations and a lack of clear directional bias. However, a deeper analysis reveals that the broader structure on the 4-hour chart is offering more constructive insights. Despite the choppy short-term moves, the 4-hour timeframe maintains a bullish formation, suggesting that underlying momentum may be building. The Bigger Picture For XRP A key insight shared by market analyst Andrew Griffiths suggests that a decisive move toward the bullish order block between 2.3907 and 2.3277, coupled with strong bearish momentum, could indicate the early signs of a structural breakdown. Related Reading: XRP Price Eyes Breakout: Can It Shatter Resistance and Reignite the Rally? In his recent post on X, Griffiths emphasized that this price zone has historically acted as a significant area of demand, where buyers typically step in to defend support. However, if sellers dominate this region and the price fails to hold, it could signal a shift in market dynamics, potentially invalidating the current bullish setup. Despite this technical vulnerability, the overall crypto market sentiment continues to lean bullish. Bitcoin’s dominance remains firm, while the TOTAL2 chart, which reflects the performance of altcoins excluding Bitcoin, maintains a bullish market structure. These broader trends support the idea that current weakness may be a temporary shakeout rather than the start of a deeper reversal. As such, price action around the order block is key, as it could serve as a turning point in the days ahead. Trade Setup: Waiting for Confirmation at Key Levels Andrew Griffiths outlined a strategic trading approach centered around the 4-hour bullish order block between 2.3907 and 2.3277. According to Griffiths, a price test of this zone, if accompanied by weak bearish momentum, could present a favorable buying opportunity.

This aligns with his personal trading methodology, which focuses on identifying high-probability entries where price reacts to key levels with signs of exhaustion from the opposing side. For traders looking to capitalize on potential long setups, this zone may serve as an ideal area for entry, provided certain conditions align. Signs such as decreasing sell volume, long lower wicks (indicating rejection), or bullish candlestick formations within or just above the zone may act as confirmation of weakening bearish pressure. Griffiths also emphasizes the importance of waiting for a clear reaction, rather than preemptively entering a position, to reduce the risk of a deeper breakdown. A well-placed stop-loss just below the lower boundary of the order block (2.3277) could offer a favorable risk-reward ratio, especially if the broader trend resumes to the upside.

XRP has joined the recent crypto upswing after Bitcoin pushed back above the $100,000 mark. Prices have climbed into the upper end of the $2 region. That has some traders betting on much higher targets ahead. According to market observers, a mix of classic chart setups points to fresh peaks. But history also shows that big runs often come with sharp pullbacks.

XRP followed suit by rising from around $0.50 in late 2024 to about $3.30 by January 2025. That was a gain of over 500%. Since February 2025, XRP has moved sideways around $2.40. Some traders see this as a quiet pause before the next leap. Others warn that holding a narrow range can trap buyers in false breakouts. Parabolic Run May Set Stage According to crypto analyst Mags, known as “the scalping pro,” this sideways action mirrors the 2017 cycle. Back then, XRP shot up from $0.0055 in March 2017 to $0.3988 in a parabolic phase. After six months of calm, the altcoin blasted to $3.40 in what he calls a blow‑off top. Now, $XRP is going to $7 Shared XRP below $0.5 before it went 6x. The current consolidation looks similar to what we saw back in 2017-18 before the blow off top. Expecting something similar. easy 2-3x from here.. https://t.co/GG8uHFwRvK pic.twitter.com/b9juSGSp5y — Mags (@thescalpingpro) May 10, 2025 Mags expects history to echo again. He predicts an ultimate price of $7.30, about 200% above today’s levels. His chart outlines four stages per cycle: first bounce, accumulation, parabolic climb, then blow‑off top. Triangle Breakout Signals Growth Based on reports from analyst Ali Martinez, there’s another setup in play. He points to a multi‑year symmetrical triangle that ran from January 2018 to November 2024. XRP broke out of that pattern when it surged toward $2 after the US elections last year. If the governing pattern behind $XRP is this symmetrical triangle, the target could be $15. pic.twitter.com/zFICoLyu2x — Ali (@ali_charts) May 11, 2025 Martinez figures the measured move from the triangle could push XRP to $15. That would be a 520% jump from $2.40. He adds that the current pullback may simply be the consolidation phase after the breakout.

Following the XRP price’s stellar performance in the current bull cycle, a crypto analyst has now predicted that the value of the third-largest cryptocurrency could soon soar to $10 or more in 2025. This bullish projection is backed by several key factors expected to drive strong demand and boost global adoption. Factors That Could Push XRP Price To $10 Unlike past cycles, when XRP pumped toward the tail end of the bull market, this time, it has emerged as one of the top-performing altcoins early on. Expanding on this impressive performance, X (formerly Twitter) crypto analyst and XRP supporter Edo Farina has shared a video analysis of the cryptocurrency, predicting the token’s potential price outlook and outlining different factors that could drive this surge. Related Reading: Analyst Says These Factors Will Drive XRP Price To $1,000, But What Does Market Cap Say? The analyst has highlighted the influence of Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D), which he sees as a critical indicator for altcoin movements. According to him, BTC.D currently remains relatively high. However, historically, the dominance dropped from 40% to 30%, marking the onset of the altcoin season. This expected drop in Bitcoin’s Dominance could serve as the trigger for a broader altcoin market breakout, positioning the XRP price for a potential 4X rally from current levels. According to Farina, a 4X jump from $2.39 could easily propel XRP toward the $10 mark. Key to this optimism and bullish outlook is the recent resolution of the lawsuit between the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Ripple. With legal battles seemingly behind it, XRP is no longer classified as a security in the US, giving Ripple the green light to offer the token to financial institutions. Farina has suggested that this newfound regulatory clarity is expected to bolster investor confidence and lay the groundwork for global adoption. Achieving a $10 price point will also require more than a shift in market sentiment. Farina explains that it will depend heavily on XRP’s integration into the global financial system. The analyst argues that XRP must become the cornerstone, especially in cross-border payments and Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization. Ripple has already taken significant steps in this direction, reportedly playing a role in the roll-out of the digital Euro. Ripple is also making strategic acquisitions, such as its acquisition of Hidden Road and the potential purchase of Circle, which could exponentially expand its influence in traditional finance. The analyst further notes that the possible launch of XRP ETFs could significantly impact the token’s price dynamics. If approved by the SEC and more ETFs hit the market, investor demand is expected to skyrocket, potentially driving prices toward or even beyond $10 in 2025. How Much Will 1,000 XRP Be Worth In 2025? In his analysis, Farina estimated how much 1,000 XRP could be worth in 2025 if its price surges to $10 and above. At $10, a modest holding of 1,000 XRP would be worth $10,000.

XRP investors are keeping an eye on a crucial price level this week. Bitcoin has managed to reclaim above $100,000 and Ethereum is over $2,300. XRP has recorded a modest increase as well but still hovers at the lower part of the $2 price range. From a chart of a market observer who goes by the name of “Guy on the Earth,” XRP has held above a persistent horizontal trendline at $2. Historical Price Rollercoaster Back in March 2017, XRP burst in price, rising from $0.0055 to a high of $3.80. After peaking at that all-time high in January 2018, it fell hard. XRP initially broke through $2 on December 30, 2017. By January 13, 2018—two weeks later—it dipped below again. That initial test revealed the $2 level was more resistance than support for new buyers. Related Reading: Taiwan Official Proposes Bitcoin As Part Of National Reserve Strategy Failed Breaks After Rally XRP attempted to break past that level once more in April 2021. It peaked at $1.96 but could not make further progress. From January 2018 all the way up to December 2024, the $2 line acted as a ceiling. Traders watched it cap price action for almost seven years. Every time XRP hit against that wall, it fell back into the $1 zone. $XRP Thats about as clean as it gets. This time it is different. This time it’s XRP. pic.twitter.com/9mK8QVuQVX — Guy on the Earth (@guyontheearth) May 9, 2025 Recent Break Above Two Based on reports, XRP finally cleared the $2 trendline in December 2024, when broader markets jumped on a bullish wave. Since then, the coin has stayed above this line for almost five months. That’s a first in XRP’s history. While its bounce hasn’t been as fast as Bitcoin’s or Ethereum’s, holding this level longer than ever feels different. Analyst Predictions And Warnings As per “Guy on the Earth,” remaining above $2 would pave the way for greater prices. He previously predicted an increase to $3.30, which already occurred. His next goal rests at $5.30, where he advises traders to take profit. He said “this time is different” for the altcoin. Related Reading: Bitcoin’s Grip Loosens: Market Expert Says Dominance Has Hit Its Ceiling Wider Risks And Outlook This trend in prices is just half the story. Ripple’s legal battle against the SEC and regulatory updates for crypto would do the trick. On-chain metrics such as active accounts or large transfers would put some perspective behind that $2 hold. Traders should pay attention to sudden spikes in daily volume around this line. If XRP drops below $1.80 on a daily chart, some analysts will declare the setup invalid. For the moment, however, many view this extension above $2 as a signal that XRP’s next act could be better than its previous one. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView
XRP prices moved by almost 3% in the past day as the crypto market bounce continues. However, the prominent altcoin remains in danger of significant market downside. According to renowned X market expert Crypto Egrag, XRP must close above certain price levels to invalidate this bearish pattern and validate its bullish trajectory. Related Reading: Major XRP Accumulation Alert: Wallets Holding Over 10,000 Coins Cross 300,000 XRP Faces Critical Resistance At $2.41-$2.45, But $2.96 Represents Ultimate Challenge In a recent series of X posts, Egrag Crypto has previously stated that XRP was at a major crossroads facing a pivotal breakout or a potential retest. In line with the crypto market, XRP has seen a sustained price rebound since mid-April, gaining by 35.95%. However, Egrag Crypto warns that the altcoin is facing major resistance at the price range between $2.41-$2.45, which aligns with the descending trend line of the market correction that had dominated the first quarter of 2025. To strengthen the bullish case of its recent breakout, the analyst explains that XRP must move and stay above this price resistance, thereby neutralizing the bearish outlook. If XRP fails to make a convincing breakout above $2.41-$2.45 and slips into consolidation, the altcoin faces the potential of a retest to around $1.2-$1.3, representing a potential 46.05% decline from today’s price. However, the analyst explains that such a retest would only provide a massive accumulation opportunity as the long-term outlook for XRP still remains bullish. In a following post on May 10, Egrag Crypto states XRP must also reclaim the $2.96 price zone to confirm a sustainable uptrend. Notably, the $2.96 price level represents the next major price resistance after the descending trendline and is the closest to the current local market top.

On larger time frames, the altcoin holders are in significant profits as indicated by gains of 10.17% and 23.37% on the weekly and monthly charts, respectively. Generally, the market sentiment among XRP investors remains bullish, especially following recent developments in the legal case between Ripple and the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). On May 8, the SEC announced a settlement that includes the return of $75 million held in escrow to Ripple, which comes months after the Commission signaled its intentions to terminate its appeal case against the blockchain company. With a market cap of $241.95 billion, XRP remains the fourth-largest cryptocurrency and third-largest altcoin in the digital asset space. Featured image from Pexels, chart from Tradingview
XRP is turning heads again following an impressive show of resilience in recent days, bouncing from lows of $2.08 earlier this week to reclaim $2.4 at the time of writing. This upward momentum, now clocking over 15% gains from its test of the $2 support, has brought with it an interesting historical pattern on XRP’s daily chart. A comparison of XRP’s current price structure with its 2017 trajectory shows that a rare setup may be indicating a massive breakout is on the horizon, with a price target as high as $9. Related Reading: 3.5 Million TRUMP Tokens On The Move—Trump Team Makes A Big Play XRP Price Flashes 1D Death Cross Signal, But Price History Suggests A Twist On the surface, a death cross has appeared on the XRP daily candlestick timeframe chart. This sort of cross occurs when the 50-day moving average crosses below the 200-day moving average, and would typically be interpreted as a bearish sign. However, according to a crypto analyst on the TradingView platform, this might not be the case for XRP. A closer look at historical precedent from 2017 suggests that this technical signal may not be as bad for XRP as it sounds. Back then, XRP exhibited nearly identical behavior of trading within a descending triangle just before the death cross occurred. That moment marked a deceptive shift, as XRP’s price action quickly flipped direction and exploded to the upside. Within weeks of the 2017 death cross, XRP went on to hit the 1.5 Fibonacci extension zone, delivering returns in excess of 1,350% from its pre-breakout level of $0.23 up until its current all-time high of $3.4. XRP has again spent months consolidating within a tight descending triangle in the 2025 setup leading up to the current death cross which is the first in over a year. Despite the bearish implications of the death cross, the parallels in chart structure with the 2017 pattern and timing have made this formation a bullish wildcard. A similar playout of the 2017 death cross rally would send the XRP price to new all-time highs at the 1.5 Fibonacci extension. In terms of a price target, the analyst noted that the 1.5 Fibonacci extension for this year aligns near the $9.00 price level, which would represent a 325% rally from XRP’s current price. XRP 2017 Price Chart: Image From TradingViewXRP 2025 Price Chart: Image From TradingView Indicators Stay Neutral But Optimistic Notably, the XRP price has a neutral but promising technical outlook across higher timeframes. XRP holds a Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 54.799 on the weekly timeframe. This is mid-range and shows there’s still plenty of room to climb before XRP becomes overbought. The MACD reading at 0.197 indicates mild upward pressure, while the ADX is at 30.423.
