A prominent crypto analyst has put forth an optimistic forecast for XRP , suggesting that the cryptocurrency could achieve double-digit prices in the future. This prediction comes on the heels of ongoing underperformance by XRP , despite the recent resolution of the legal dispute involving Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The analyst hinted at an upcoming “massive God candle” event, which could propel XRP ’s price to an unprecedented level of $57. The projection is based on technical analysis, suggesting that this upward movement could materialize sometime next year, potentially coinciding with the peak of the current market cycle. However, the analyst did not elaborate on the specific catalysts that might drive XRP to this ambitious target.
A potential game-changer in the market could be the launch of a Spot XRP Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF), which has been referenced by several other analysts as well. Such an ETF could attract fresh capital into the XRP ecosystem, significantly boosting its price. Nonetheless, uncertainty remains about whether such a fund would propel XRP to its predicted heights.
With the SEC case behind Ripple, hopes for an XRP ETF may appear more plausible than before. However, caution within the XRP community is warranted, especially considering the token’s performance since the lawsuit concluded. While many anticipated a surge in XRP ’s price following the case’s resolution, the token has struggled to break the $0.6 resistance level and has shown limited movement upward.
Another analyst has presented an even bolder prediction, asserting that a breakout from a lengthy consolidation pattern could see XRP ’s price rise to $263. With multiple bullish signals emerging and the token nearing a critical convergence point after nearly seven years of pattern development, the outlook appears promising. Currently, XRP is trading around $0.5623, reflecting a slight decline over the last day, according to CoinMarketCap data.
