Pundit Who Predicted XRP’s Crash Now Says It’s Ready to Soar – How High Can XRP Go?

The analyst who predicted the XRP price crash below $2.50 is now eyeing a surge to cycle highs as the front-running altcoin navigates heightened volatility.

The stagnancy that has suppressed XRP throughout February has erupted into action, with the price surging 9.16% over the past 7 days.

While the early week saw this momentum falter, sending XRP below $2.50, a second wave has since recovered much of the dip.

With today’s 5.11% gain, backed by an 11% uptick in trading volume to $5.5 billion, XRP could be poised for a major breakout ahead.

Analyst’s Projection Plays Out: Here’s What Happens Next

They initially identified $2.50 as a key Fair Value Gap (FVG)—a significant liquidity zone where XRP could establish support before continuing its uptrend.

Throughout this cycle, the FVG has served as an imbalance area, often sparking reactions as traders step in to fill the gap.

Following a decisive rebound from this level, TehThomas believes XRP’s next critical step is to break above a descending resistance trendline.

XRP Price Analysis: How High Can XRP Go?

While TehThomas sets a breakout target of $3, the resistance trendline is part of a symmetrical triangle pattern forming since the new year.

While an initial attempt to break the trendline was rejected, the XRP price remains on strong footing for a reattempt.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) holds steady at 57, while the MACD recently confirmed a golden cross, with the MACD line crossing above the signal line.

Such moves often precede significant price upticks, with the bulls firmly in control of the asset’s next move.

If a decisive breakout occurs, the triangle pattern sets a target of $4, marking a potential 50% gain from current levels.

However, the analyst notes that retesting the upper barrier as support post-breakout will be key to confirming sustained upward momentum.

This ICO Allows You to Make the Best of This Bull Cycle

Any trader hedging their risk likely features Bitcoin (BTC) as a major part of their portfolio.

While the leading cryptocurrency provides stable gains, it often sacrifices upside potential—that’s where Bitcoin Bull (BTCBULL) comes in, offering a fresh way to capitalize on BTC tailwinds.

True to its name, Bitcoin Bull ties its tokenomics to Bitcoin’s price growth in a deflationary model.

The project burns tokens and distributes BTC airdrops whenever Bitcoin reaches key milestones—starting at $125,000 and triggering new rewards for every $25,000 climb thereafter.

With some analysts forecasting BTC highs of $250,000 this cycle, BTCBULL could become a Bitcoin Maxi’s best friend.

With almost $2.5 million raised in its initial two weeks, the project is already gaining strong momentum—potentially credited to its 175% APY on staking that rewards early investors.
