Ethereum continues to struggle to surmount the resistance that has mounted at $3,000, with bears maintaining a firm grip on the price. Nevertheless, bullish sentiment surrounding the Ethereum price has not been completely eroded. This suggests that investors still expect the price to recover from the current decline. Crypto analyst Master Ananda shares a more bullish view for the cryptocurrency, predicting that 5-figures remain in the future. Ethereum Price To Push Above $10,0000 In the analysis, Master Ananda explains that the Ethereum story is far from over. The crypto analyst pointed out the appearance of Trend-Based Fibonacci extension numbers on the Ethereum price chart. These suggest that the Ethereum price is getting ready for another major rally. Related Reading: Bitcoin At The Bottom? The 23-Month Cycle That Has Never Failed Following this trend, the analyst believes that the digital asset’s price will hit 5-figures. However, despite $10,000 looking more elusive with each passing day, Master Ananda says it doesn’t look like the all-time high target for Ethereum. Instead, $10,000 is only a “mid-portion” target, meaning that he expects the price to rise higher. In contrast to the expected $10,000 target that Ethereum has been predicted to hit, the crypto analyst sees the price rising as high as $20,000 at this time. Such a recovery would mean an over 900% increase in price for Ethereum, and likely trigger an altcoin season, as has been the case in the past. Looking at the chart, there are some major resistance levels where the bears could put up a fight. The first is around $4,900, where the current all-time high sits. Then, moving further along comes the $10,690 resistance. This is a natural resistance as $10,000 is expected to be a major psychological level.

As for the timeframe for when this could happen, the crypto analyst explains that investors will not have to wait long for this to happen. “We don’t have to wait four years for this event to take place. It is all starting now… Ethereum is headed for a target of $20,000,” the post reads. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

The XRP price has experienced a modest 5% recovery in the last 24 hours, managing to reclaim the crucial support level at $1.40. However, it remains substantially below its all-time highs reached in 2025. Despite this, technical analyst Egrag Crypto believes that this year could see the XRP price soaring to a price point as high as $42, meaning a potential gain of up to 2,900% from its current levels. XRP Price Cycles Egrag delineates his forecast by identifying four macro formations on the cryptocurrency’s monthly chart, each of which follows a similar cyclical pattern over the past decade. These cycles demonstrate that the XRP price tends to undergo a period of compression into a tight range before breaking out and embarking on a significant rally, ultimately resetting before the next structure emerges. Related Reading: What’s Fueling Hyperliquid’s Surge? HYPE Outperforms Top 100 Cryptos In Latest Rally The first formation occurred in October 2014, when XRP rose from $0.0046 to $0.028 by December. Following this initial surge, the price consolidated within the range of $0.006 to $0.009 for nearly three years until early 2017. The second formation initiated in March 2017, leading to a breakout that pushed the XRP price from under $0.01 to $0.40 by May of the same year, resulting in over 4,000% gains. After another consolidation period through November 2017, XRP reached a peak of $3.31 in January 2018 before experiencing a prolonged decline that ultimately brought it down to around $0.17 by June 2020. The fourth formation began from the $0.17 low in June 2020, where XRP rallied to $1.96 by April 2021. After another extended period of consolidation around the $0.50 mark, XRP broke through a significant descending trendline in November 2024, which had been constraining its price since 2018. This breakout propelled the XRP price to $3.65 by July 2025. The current price pullback to the $1.30–$1.40 range is effectively retesting that breakout level. If XRP continues along the same proportional trajectory as previous cycles, Egrag’s target of $42 could be within reach. Two Scenarios To Keep An Eye On It’s important to note that Egrag does not position $42 as the immediate target. Instead, he has laid out intermediate goals that are much lower—such as $4.50 if a breakout occurs, and potentially $10–$13 if the rally expands further. But when averaging across all four macro scenarios, Egrag estimates that an XRP price around $11 would be plausible, suggesting a market cap of about $670 billion for the altcoin. Related Reading: BitMine Acquires 60,000 ETH; Chair Discusses Outlook For Ethereum And Crypto Prices Lastly, Egrag presents a cautious perspective regarding the $42 target, outlining two potential scenarios moving forward. One possibility is that the bullish structure may fail, leading the XRP price into a deeper bear market. Alternatively, Egrag leans toward the thought that the current drawdown is merely a retest within a new growth cycle. He emphasizes that this structural framework must remain intact for his projections to hold. Featured image from OpenArt, chart from TradingView.com
