A crypto market expert has just projected that the XRP price could explode to a new all-time high this cycle. Lately, the cryptocurrency has shown significant weakness amid a prolonged downtrend that began when it broke above $3.5 last year. Despite crashing more than 60% from that high today, the analyst argues that XRP’s corrective phase may have ended, citing three technical indicators that support his bullish thesis. Aligned Technical Indicators Confirm XRP Price Bottom Crypto analyst Dark Defender has released a new analysis suggesting that XRP may have found a bottom and is poised to reverse its downtrend toward a new all-time high. He points to three technical signals, including a confirmed completion of XRP’s corrective wave C structure, a triangle breakout, and a Relative Strength Index (RSI) bullish cross. Related Reading: XRP Expert Says Investors Should Not Fret Over Price, Here’s Why In his analysis, Dark Defender presented an Elliott Wave chart of XRP on a three-day timeframe, covering roughly April 2025 through a projected target period extending into mid-to-late 2026. The chart maps out a completed ABC corrective pattern, beginning with wave A, which marked an initial high for XRP before a sharp sell-off followed. Wave B then unfolded as a strong recovery rally, pushing XRP’s price up to its $3.6 peak in 2025 before reversing once again and setting the stage for wave C. According to the chart, wave C represents the final and most significant phase of the XRP correction. It is shown as a classic five-subwave impulse decline that has now fully played out. Within this structure, the fifth sub-wave recently completed near $1.31, marking XRP’s potential bottom and the end of the five-wave sequence. As a result, the completion of wave C is a key turning point, suggesting that XRP’s prolonged bearish move from the wave B peak may be over, potentially giving way to a new bullish impulse. In addition, the chart shows that the ABC corrective wave formed between two converging trendlines, creating what Dark Defender called a “resistance-support triangle.” Apparently, the XRP price had compressed inside this bearish triangle throughout its corrective phase. The upper resistance trendline of this triangle, shown in orange, served as a strong barrier for a long time. However, Dark Defender notes that XRP has now broken above this resistance line, signaling the end of its compression phase and the potential beginning of a new uptrend. Next Move Points To Strong Rally Toward New ATH While the orange resistance trendline capped price action before XRP’s recent breakout, the yellow support line on Dark Defender’s chart served as a strong base, repeatedly preventing the price from breaking lower. Each successful defense of this support helped establish a firmer bottom, a move that coincided with the RSI forming a bullish crossover at deeply oversold levels. Related Reading: XRP Battle Zones Have Been Drawn: The Move To $31 That Could Change Everything Looking ahead, Dark Defender outlines four potential upside targets for XRP’s next bullish impulse wave. The first target sits at the 123.6% extension near $1.66, representing a roughly 27% gain from current levels above $1.30. The next level lies at the 161.8% extension around $1.88 before the final resistance at $2.58. For his all-time high target, Dark Defender projects a move toward the 261.08% extension at $5.85. A price rally to this level could represent a staggering surge of more than 350% from XRP’s present market value. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Ethereum is holding above key price levels as the market prepares for a decisive move. The chart looks constructive. The March data from XWIN Research Japan explains why the chart may be understating what is actually happening beneath it. Related Reading: XRP Supply Is Thinning and Leverage Is Absent. Learn What Happens When One Of Those Changes The report documents a capital rotation that played out in plain sight last month — and that most participants attributed to momentum rather than structure. While Bitcoin gained 1.83% in March, Ethereum rose 7.12%. That performance gap is not the headline. The market cap divergence is. Bitcoin’s market cap declined 0.43% over the same period while Ethereum’s expanded 2.97% — meaning capital was not just flowing toward ETH, it was flowing away from BTC simultaneously. That is the definition of reallocation, not coincidence. The structural reading goes further. Ethereum’s realized volatility in March reached 62.8% against Bitcoin’s 49.8% — confirming ETH’s role as the higher-beta asset in the relationship. Despite a correlation of approximately 0.94 between the two assets, Ethereum amplifies moves in liquidity and risk appetite disproportionately. When conditions improve, ETH responds harder. When they deteriorate, ETH absorbs more damage. March’s conditions improved. ETH responded accordingly. The question the report raises — and the one the current price level demands — is whether the conditions that produced March’s rotation are strengthening or fading. The Price Is Moving. The Structure Behind It Is Moving Faster The XWIN Research Japan analysis identifies three simultaneous developments that together describe something more durable than a momentum trade. Exchange outflows for Ethereum continue to build — coins leaving trading venues, reducing the immediately available sell-side pool, and reflecting a growing preference for long-term holding over active trading. Supply is thinning not because buyers have arrived in force, but because sellers have stepped back. The on-chain picture adds the demand dimension. The Coinbase Premium Gap remains negative — US institutional demand has not fully returned — but it is improving. That directional shift matters more than the current level: a gap moving toward zero is a market in early recovery, not stagnation. Active Addresses, meanwhile, continue trending higher, confirming that Ethereum’s network is being used more regardless of price direction. Real usage expanding before institutional capital arrives is the textbook early-cycle structure. The distinction the report draws between Ethereum and Bitcoin is structural rather than competitive. Bitcoin functions as a store of value — its thesis is monetary. Ethereum functions as financial infrastructure — stablecoins, DeFi, tokenized assets, settlement layers — its thesis is utility. In a market where real usage is already expanding and institutional demand is approaching rather than present, the infrastructure asset tends to re-rate before the monetary asset fully recovers. ETH is currently receiving capital inflows, tightening supply, and growing its network simultaneously. That combination does not produce a guaranteed outcome. It produces a structurally stronger setup than the price alone currently reflects. Related Reading: Ethereum’s $2.1B Leverage Flush Was Not a Breakdown Signal: Here Is What It Actually Was Ethereum Tests Strength After Post-Capitulation Recovery Ethereum is attempting to build a recovery structure after the sharp February breakdown that reset market positioning. The chart shows a clear capitulation event, followed by a period of stabilization and gradual higher lows. Price is now trading around $2,200, a level that has shifted from resistance into a short-term pivot. This transition is constructive, but not yet decisive. ETH remains below its 100-day (green) and 200-day (red) moving averages, both trending downward, which keeps the broader structure bearish. However, the 50-day moving average (blue) is beginning to flatten and price is interacting closely with it, signaling that short-term momentum is stabilizing. Related Reading: Aave Breakdown Deepens With Supply Flooding Back To Binance. Learn What Triggered The Rush The key development is the change in behavior. The violent sell-off has been replaced by controlled consolidation, with reduced volatility and more consistent buying on dips. Volume spiked during the February decline, indicating forced liquidations, and has since normalized, suggesting that the market is no longer under stress. Structurally, Ethereum is transitioning from distribution to early accumulation. A confirmed shift would require a sustained move above the $2,400–$2,600 range, where the 100-day average sits. Until then, this remains a recovery attempt within a broader downtrend, but with improving underlying conditions. Featured image from ChatGPT, chart from TradingView.com
