The XRP price is showing signs of recovery after crashing under $2 earlier last week due to broader market volatility and decline. With its renewed momentum, analysts are now sharing optimistic projections about its future trajectory. New reports from market expert, Egrag Crypto, highlight the reappearance of a crucial technical signal that could trigger a major trend reversal for XRP. Based on the formation of this signal, XRP may be positioning for an explosive price surge that contradicts the previous bearish developments. XRP Price Chart Forms Bullish EMA Cross Signal Egrag Crypto has described the cross between two key Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) as “the real signal.” In his X post shared on Monday, he presented an in-depth review of XRP’s 3-day chart, focusing on the interaction between the 50-day and 200-day EMA and predicting how this technical signal could impact the cryptocurrency’s future price action.  Related Reading: Attack On Cardano Founder Leads To Network Halt, What Really Happened? Egrag Crypto emphasized that many traders have interpreted the narrowing distance between these two key EMAs as the early stages of a bear market. However, his analysis shows that this interpretation does not match the XRP’s technical structure. For a genuine bearish cross to confirm a downward trend, XRP’s price would need to fall decisively below both EMAs as overall momentum begins to weaken. Currently, XRP sits above the 200 EMA, with the long-term trend line still rising, indicating underlying strength rather than a classic bear market setup. This suggests the cryptocurrency may be gradually building momentum to break out of its ongoing downtrend and move to higher levels.  Egrag Crypto’s chart shows that XRP’s present structure contrasts sharply with its 2018 setup. During that cycle, XRP’s price had collapsed long before the two EMAs crossed, implying that the bearish crossover signal was more of a confirmation than the cause of the weakness. Based on the chart analysis, XRP’s present market structure lacks the characteristics of this historical event, suggesting that the cryptocurrency may be holding firm at levels that could yield more bullish outcomes than before.  Where The XRP Price Is Headed  Continuing his analysis, Egrag Crypto explained that the latest XRP chart setup looks more like the structures seen before its historic bull rallies in 2017 and early 2021. During those bullish cycles, the 500/200 EMAs had tightened, and XRP had remained above the 200 EMA.  Related Reading: Will The Low XRP Price Force Ripple To Dump Its Holdings? Exec Answers Community Egrag Crypto noted that the market also entered a compression phase in both years, leading to sharp increases in volatility and explosive price surges. According to the analyst, each time XRP emerged from these conditions, it produced some of its most aggressive vertical moves.   Notably, XRP’s current price chart reflects similar patterns. Egrag Crypto has said the cryptocurrency may be experiencing “late-cycle consolidation” rather than the beginning of a prolonged downtrend. Compression phases of this type often indicate that momentum is building beneath the surface. Based on its structure, the analyst has predicted that the XRP price is likely to head toward its final upside leg rather than a completed top.  Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

On-chain analytics platform Lookonchain has provided insights into what may have contributed to the Solana price crash since October. The platform revealed that meme coin launchpad Pump.fun has sold a significant amount of SOL, cashing out almost $500 million since the start of October. Pump.fun Allegedly Dumps SOL Amid Solana Price Crash In an X post, Lookonchain suggested that Pump.fun has been selling SOL, as it appears that the meme coin launchpad has cashed out at least 436.5 million USDC since October 15. The on-chain analytics platform also stated that since October 15, the meme coin launchpad has deposited 436.5 million USDC into Kraken.  Related Reading: Forget XRP, DFDV Exec Predicts Solana Price Is Headed For $10,000 Furthermore, Lookonchain revealed that between May 19, 2024, and August 12, 2025, Pump.fun sold a total of 4.19 million SOL ($757 million) at an average price of $181. Of that amount, 264,373 SOL was sold on-chain for $41.64 million, while 3.93 million SOL ($715.5 million) was deposited into Kraken. Pump.fun’s SOL sales are known to put significant selling pressure on the Solana price, thereby contributing to its crash.  Notably, the Solana price has recorded one of the largest losses during this recent crypto market downtrend. SOL crashed from a high of around $220 in October to a low of $120 this month. This has occurred despite the launch of six spot Solana ETFs during this period. Bitwise, Grayscale, Fidelity, 21Shares, VanEck, and Canary have all launched their SOL funds and have recorded notable flows since launch. SoSo Value data shows that these funds have recorded cumulative net inflows of $568.24 million since their respective listings. Despite this, the Solana price has been in a downtrend amid significant selling pressure from SOL whales. Thanks to the crash, SOL is now down over 28% year-to-date (YTD). The altcoin is also down over 28% in the last 30 days.  Pump.fun Denies Recent SOL Sales A Pump.fun spokesperson, Sapijiju, has indicated that they haven’t sold any SOL recently and haven’t contributed to the Solana price crash. In an X post, he described Lookonchain’s post as complete misinformation, as they haven’t cashed any sum. He claimed they were not involved in the transactions between Kraken and Circle that the on-chain analytics platform referenced. Related Reading: Institutions Have Been Buying Solana Every Day For 2 Weeks, Is $300 Possible? Lookonchain had claimed that during the same period, Pump.fun allegedly cashed out 436.5 million USDC, 537.6 million USDC was sent from Kraken to Circle. Meanwhile, regarding the 436.5 million USDC, Sapijiju stated that what is happening is part of their treasury management, with the USDC part of funds from the PUMP ICO, and with plans to reinvest the sum into the business.  At the time of writing, the Solana price is trading at around $138, up almost 4% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
