Ripple’s XRP Prediction Maps a Path to Over $5 in This Bull Run

Ripple’s XRP is once again in focus as analysts draw comparisons between the current market structure and the one seen in 2017. Several price models suggest that the asset could still climb above $5 in the current cycle. 

Despite a recent drop from local highs, some long-term setups remain unchanged.

Cycle-Based Models Project More Upside

Crypto analyst EGRAG CRYPTO shared a chart using what he called the “10% theory.” The model is based on the Gaussian Channel over a two-week time frame. 

In 2017, XRP gained about 3,700%. So far this cycle, the move has reached around 370%. If a final push brings a similar percentage gain, his target falls between $5.50 and $6.00.

EGRAG also pushed back on the idea that XRP is showing weaker returns. He pointed to the 2021 cycle, where XRP moved 1,700% from bottom to top. He said that repeating that gain would again bring XRP above the $5 level.

Chart Pattern Tracks 2017 Structure

Chart analyst ChartNerdTA posted a long-term pattern that shows XRP moving inside a large ascending triangle. The structure looks similar to the one that formed before the 2017 breakout. That move started after the price broke above the triangle resistance.
