XRP’s price action has come under heavy pressure in recent days alongside the rest of the market, falling back into a major support region around $1.10 with sellers still controlling short-term momentum. The decline has placed XRP directly inside a notable zone on the monthly candlestick long-term chart. Particularly, technical analysis done by crypto analyst EGRAG CRYPTO indicates that XRP may still face one more liquidity sweep before a much larger move above $10. XRP In Face-Melting Phase EGRAG’s analysis is based on the monthly candlestick timeframe chart depicting XRP’s behavior around the 50-month and 100-month exponential moving averages. According to the analyst, XRP has shown a recurring pattern on higher time frames whenever it loses the 50 EMA decisively. The breakdown is usually followed by weak momentum, emotional selling, and a final liquidity sweep into the 100 EMA before the next rally kicks off again. Related Reading: XRP Price To See Violent Discontinuous Repricing And $10 Could Only Be The Start That model is important because XRP’s current monthly candle has already opened the current weekly candlestick below the 50 EMA, placing the price action in a fragile position. This positions XRP in a face-melting phase where it has a possibility of falling to the 100 EMA, while the market continues searching for its true macro bottom. The analyst’s projected path leaves room for more downside first, with the chart pointing to a possible crash below $1. However, one of the more counterintuitive dimensions of EGRAG CRYPTO’s analysis is what he does while anticipating further downside. Rather than waiting for a confirmed reversal, the analyst is actively building a position across a range of entry prices at $1.09, $0.92, $0.85, and even $0.70, treating each level as a probability zone. The Numbers Say XRP Is Headed Above $10 Another interesting part of the analysis is not the possible move lower, but the upside numbers that follow it. EGRAG’s chart shows a major recovery path out of the current support range and into a break above the current cycle high at $3.65. The projections show upside levels highlighted at $9, $13, $17, $20, and $27. Related Reading: Ripple IPO Is Not A Pipe Dream: Industry Expert Predicts When XRP Investors Should Expect Public Listing EGRAG’s point is that the exact bottom may matter less if XRP eventually reaches these projected bullish targets. Risk management matters more than catching the exact bottom, and his example compares entries at $1.09, $0.92, $0.85, or $0.70 with upside targets at $7, $8, $13, and mid-double-digit prices. Entering at those low prices will not matter when XRP reaches those high targets. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $1.14, down by 12% in the past seven days. A move from the current $1.14 price to $10 would require a rally of about 777%. A climb to $13 would represent a gain of more than 1,040%. Lastly, a rally to the $27 level on the chart would require XRP to rise by more than 2,260% from the current range. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Bank of America is expanding its global payments strategy with a renewed focus on enhancing cross-border transaction capabilities, highlighting the growing importance of efficient international money movement in modern finance. Being one of the world’s largest financial institutions and a company frequently associated with discussions surrounding Ripple and payment innovation, Bank of America’s latest initiative underscores the continued evolution of global settlement infrastructure. Ripple Gains Institutional Momentum Through Major Banking Alliance Ripple partner Bank of America is preparing to launch a new cross-border payments service that incorporates SWIFT. An analyst known as SMQKE on X noted that rather than replacing legacy systems outright, banks are increasingly adopting hybrid payment models that use both Ripple and SWIFT for global transactions. This dual-framework approach is practical for banks because RippleNet can integrate into existing banking infrastructure just like a traditional payment system. Related Reading: Ripple Partner Thunes Unveils Development That Could Strengthen XRP’s Global Payment Narrative SMQKE argues that this Ripple’s partnership with Bank of America can create a pathway for XRP to access the bank’s extensive global payment network. As a result of that move, banks can maintain SWIFT connectivity for global reach while leveraging XRP through RippleNet as a source of on-demand liquidity. However, Bank of America’s new cross-border real-time payment service in this hybrid model will further strengthen the foundation for XRP integration into the bank’s core payment infrastructure. Institutional Compliance Remains A Key Advantage For XRP Ledger The claim that XRP is unstable for tokenization is technically unfounded. Crypto analyst CharuSan has pointed out that with its institutional-grade compliance features, built-in security architecture, and deep liquidity capabilities, the XRP Ledger stands out as one of the most suitable and secure networks for tokenization in the current market. Related Reading: Ripple’s Eyes $5 Trillion Master Account, What This Would Mean For XRP Unlike the Ethereum network, where external smart contract codes, such as ERC-20, must be written to tokenize an asset. In XRPL, the tokenization process is embedded directly into the core code of the network’s Native Issued Assets. This eliminates the need to custom smart contract code, which is often a major source of vulnerabilities, exploits, and cyberattacks. According to CharuSan, by embedding tokenization at the protocol level, XRPL enables real-world assets like real estate, stocks, and bonds to be issued and transferred securely within seconds, without exposing institutions to smart contract risk. Additionally, regulatory compliance remains a critical requirement for institutional adoption. Wall Street and institutional banks must enforce strict Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations standards, including control over who can hold tokenized assets. XRPL addresses this natively by allowing issuers to restrict access and freeze suspicious accounts when necessary, to ensure that only authorized participants can receive this token at the protocol level.
