American Bitcoin Corp Climbs Corporate BTC Rankings in Record Time

0

American Bitcoin Corp (ABTC) is emerging as one of the largest corporate Bitcoin holders in the market, just months after its public debut on NASDAQ. 

In under five months, the company has moved from the lower end of the corporate Bitcoin rankings to challenging long-established players. Co-founder Eric Trump shared the latest progress data in a post on X.

Key Points

  • ABTC rises fast, becoming a top corporate Bitcoin holder months after NASDAQ debut.

  • The company now holds over 5,800 BTC, ranking 18th among public firms.

  • ABTC steadily passed major names like GameStop, ProCap, and Next Technology.

  • Focused on U.S. Bitcoin infrastructure, ABTC aims to scale operations aggressively.

From NASDAQ Debut to Top 20 Bitcoin Holders

Since listing publicly 4 months and 22 days ago, ABTC has steadily increased its Bitcoin treasury, overtaking a long list of companies along the way. The firm has now surpassed well-known names such as DeFi Technologies, Capital B, Bitcoin Group SE, and even GameStop Corp.

As of today in 2026, ABTC has crossed the 5,800 BTC mark, placing it at number 18 among publicly known corporate Bitcoin holders. This pace of accumulation stands out, especially when compared with firms that took years to reach similar levels.

Passing Major Names One by One

ABTC’s rise has been steady rather than sudden. Through the second half of 2025, it moved past companies holding between 2,400 BTC and 4,000 BTC, before overtaking firms with even larger Bitcoin treasuries.

The most notable milestone came in December, when ABTC surpassed GameStop’s reported Bitcoin holdings, followed shortly by ProCap Financial and Nakamoto Inc.

Its latest move above Next Technology Holding Inc. in January 2026 confirmed ABTC’s position among the top 20.

According to its leadership, ABTC focuses on building Bitcoin infrastructure in the U.S. faster than its peers. The goal isn’t just to hold Bitcoin but to grow operations aggressively, using public market access for flexible funding.

Eyes on the Next Target

With ABTC now ranked just below Galaxy Digital Holdings, attention is shifting to whether the company can continue its upward momentum. If its current pace holds, another ranking change may not be far off.

Bitcoin RSI Against Gold Drops Below 30 for Fourth Time in History

0

The Bitcoin RSI against gold has dropped below the 30 mark for only the fourth time in history, suggesting that BTC may be oversold compared to XAU.

This structure recently played out amid the divergence in performance between Bitcoin (BTC), the leading cryptocurrency, and gold (XAU), the leading precious metal. Specifically, while BTC has failed to impress since Q4 2025, XAU has leveraged the fearful environment to post rapid gains, consistently setting new highs over the last few months.

With Bitcoin down 22.7% since Q4 2025 and gold up 31% within the same period, the weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the BTC/XAU pair has consistently slipped lower after dropping from the 62.18 peak in July 2025. This persistent drop led to the decline below 30 for the first time since the 2022 crypto bear market.

Key Points

  • While Bitcoin has struggled since Q4 2025, gold has continued to see gains, recently crossing the $5,000 mark to set new highs.
  • Amid this divergence in performance, the BTC/XAU pair has collapsed considerably, leading to a drop in the RSI.
  • This consistent drop resulted in the weekly RSI slipping below 30 for the first time in 2022.
  • Before now, the BTC/XAU 1W RSI had only dropped below 30 three times in history, and it represented the floor for Bitcoin.

Bitcoin RSI Against Gold Slips

This pattern was identified by crypto market veteran Michaël van de Poppe, who recently suggested that the latest slip below 30 would not turn out differently from the previous three occurrences. Van de Poppe’s commentary comes as Bitcoin continues to face bearish pressure, while capital flows into gold for its safe-haven properties.

Specifically, this trend picked up in August 2025 after the BTC/XAU pair dropped from the high of 37. From here, Bitcoin declined to 29 ounces of gold in early October 2025 before recovering to 32 ounces a week later. However, as Q4 2025 introduced fresh bearish pressure for the crypto market, the BTC/XAU pair collapsed again and has since dropped to 17 at press time. 

Amid the downtrend, the 1W RSI has continued to drop since reaching 62.18 in July 2025. Today, the RSI sits at 27.92, representing its lowest reading since June 2022, shortly after the Terra ecosystem implosion.

Historical Data Sends Encouraging Signals

Van de Poppe highlighted that this decline below 30 has only happened three times since Bitcoin launched. Notably, the structure has only played out during bear markets, and each time marked the bottom for Bitcoin. 

Specifically, the first time this happened was in January 2015, when the RSI dropped to 27.62. This coincided with the BTC bottom price of $152. From here, Bitcoin saw a recovery push. The structure emerged again in 2018, when the RSI declined to 29.21 in December, coinciding with the bear market bottom of $3,122 at the time. Again, BTC recovered from this low.

Notably, during the 2022 bear market, the weekly RSI crashed below 30, hitting a low of 26.62 in June. While Bitcoin still saw further declines after this, the steeper drops occurred due to the FTX collapse in November 2022, as prices hit new lows around $15,632. From here, BTC recovered again.

With Bitcoin now trading for $87,681, van de Poppe has expressed conviction that this time may not be different, suggesting that a recovery for BTC may not be far behind. However, past successes do not guarantee future results. As a result, investors should not make investment decisions based on this commentary.

Flare Says “Only the Beginning” After FXRP Launch on Hyperliquid Spot Closes Major XRP Gap

0

The Flare Network teases more in the pipeline after revisiting the recent launch of its liquid XRP token for spot trading on Hyperliquid.

Flare’s official account shared this in an X post today, highlighting the major gap that this closed. The tweet emphasized that before the launch, over $200 million in XRP perpetuals open interest (OI) existed on Hyperliquid without a native spot hedge. However, Flare changed that with the listing of FXRP on the DEX trading platform.

Key Points

  • The Flare Network teases that there is more in the pipeline after revisiting the recent launch of its liquid XRP token for spot trading on Hyperliquid.
  • Flare emphasized that before the launch, over $200 million in XRP perpetuals open interest (OI) existed on Hyperliquid without a naive spot hedge.
  • The Flare Network first announced the FXRP launch on January 7, debuting the first-ever XRP spot market on Hyperliquid.
  • Flare Network plans to roll out more products to expand the XRP market globally.

FXRP Closes Major Gap

The tweet featured a clip from an interview with Flare Network’s DeFi analyst, Dhruv Shah, with the media outlet “Genfinity.”  Furthermore, it reminded the crypto community that the FXRP listing on Hyperliquid closed a major gap, now allowing traders to hedge their on-chain order book with native spot XRP.

The Flare Network first announced this on January 7, debuting the first-ever XRP spot market on Hyperliquid. For context, FXRP is a 1:1 wrapped XRP token that users can bridge to the Flare Network to access decentralized finance (DeFi) functionalities.

Notably, FXRP debuted on Hyperliquid, starting with the FXRP-USDC pair. At the time of writing, this pair has a trading volume of $77,866. Additionally, Hyperliquid has also launched the FXRP/USDH pair.

Flare highlighted that this further expands the reach of XRP tokens. With over $200 million—currently $195 million on the XRP/USDC pair at press time—in XRP perps OI existing on Hyperliquid, the FXRP token would provide spot hedging for traders.

More to Come for XRP Enthusiasts

Meanwhile, Flare Network plans to do more to expand the XRP market globally, as confirmed in the Tuesday tweet. The ecosystem is expanding XRP’s presence on Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) networks, providing new use cases and strategy layers for enthusiasts, and has pledged to do more.

In the clip, Shash claimed that Flare will be the driver of XRP yields on-chain in collaboration with the new DeFi protocol Firelight. Notably, Firelight launched on Flare in December, enabling institutional-grade staking services for XRP holders.

Shash revealed that Flare is also looking at specific XRP pockets to expand into in 2026 and is building the infrastructure to enable this. This would further strengthen the relationship between the two ecosystems.

Bitcoin Hashrate Drops Over 39% as U.S. Ice Storm Disrupts BTC Mining

0

The Bitcoin hashrate has dropped sharply over the past two days, likely due to the severe ice storm in the U.S., which has temporarily reduced mining activity. 

Hashrate, a key measure of Bitcoin’s network security and participation, typically declines during periods of miner capitulation. However, this episode appears to be driven by external factors rather than economic pressure, with market participants weighing how this development could impact Bitcoin’s overall performance. 

Key Points 

  • Bitcoin’s hashrate dropped sharply over two days, falling from about 1.133 ZH/s to 690 EH/s. 
  • The decline is largely linked to a severe ice storm across the United States. 
  • Texas, a major mining hub, has been among the hardest-hit regions. 
  • Miners like CleanSpark, Iris Energy, and Riot were affected, with their daily production falling to 12 BTC, 6 BTC, and 3 BTC, respectively. 

Bitcoin Hashrate Plunges 39% in 2 Days 

Data from CryptoQuant shows that Bitcoin’s network hashrate fell from roughly 1.133 ZH/s to about 690 EH/s within 48 hours, representing a 39% drop. The decline coincides with extreme cold weather across the United States, which hosts nearly one-third of global Bitcoin mining capacity. 

Specifically, Texas, a major crypto mining hub and home to operators such as MARA, has been among the hardest hit. As a result, MARA’s daily Bitcoin production dropped from 45 to 7 BTC. 

Besides MARA, other leading miners such as CleanSpark, Iris Energy, and Riot Platforms were also impacted. Their daily Bitcoin production has dropped to 12 BTC, 6 BTC, and 3 BTC, respectively, according to data from CryptoQuant’s Head of Research, Julio Moreno. 

Notably, factors such as mounting grid strain, enforced load curtailments, and surging electricity prices pushed miners to shut down equipment and avoid operating at a loss.

Meanwhile, reduced mining activity could slow block times until the next difficulty adjustment, currently projected at approximately −4.54%, offering temporary relief once it is applied. 

What to Expect

As a result, the development has drawn attention from market participants assessing its impact on Bitcoin. In the short term, the network may experience slower block production followed by a downward difficulty adjustment.

If severe conditions persist, some miners could face cash flow pressure and be compelled to sell some of their mined BTC to cover operational costs. However, since the disruption is driven by weather, the hashrate decline is likely temporary, with mining activity likely to rebound once power conditions normalize. 

Hashrate Rebounds  

Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s hashrate has rebounded to about 873.2 EH/s, marking a 22.02% increase over the past 24 hours.

However, market sentiment remains cautious, as many investors shift their focus toward precious metals such as gold and silver. While gold and silver continue to post new highs, Bitcoin is up just 0.87% year-to-date, with BTC trading around $88,273.

Despite this modest gain, the asset remains down roughly 30.05% from its prior all-time high of $126,198. 

XRP Explosive Price Move to Follow in 2026? as XRP Continues to Defend Its Territory Above 2021 Highs

0

Despite its lackluster price performance, XRP continues to hold near its 2021 peak, which analysts view as a critical long-term battleground.

This defense could form the foundation for a much larger move, potentially setting the stage for an explosive rally in 2026.

Key Points

  • XRP holds above its 2021 highs, defending a key long-term support zone that could fuel a rally.
  • A multi-year symmetrical triangle breakout points to long-term upside, with targets of $8–$27.
  • An analyst notes a Triple Bottom within a larger consolidation, signaling strong buyer support.
  • XRP must stay above key support to maintain bullish outlook; a drop below could hit $0.50.

Why the 2021 Highs Matter

Notably, the XRP 2021 high rests around the $1.90–$2 region. This level acted as a major resistance for years, but XRP has now turned it into long-term support. According to analyst ChartNerd, as long as the price remains above this zone, the bullish structure stays intact.

Technically, holding above previous cycle highs suggests the market may have entered a new phase, where deeper corrections are less likely and upside momentum gradually builds.

XRP Multi-Year Symmetrical Triangle Breakout

At the center of the bullish thesis is a multi-year symmetrical triangle forming since XRP’s previous cycle. This structure reflects years of price compression, with lower highs meeting higher lows.

ChartNerd’s analysis indicates that XRP has already broken out of this triangle to the upside. Long-term breakouts like this can lead to strong, extended moves. Using Fibonacci extension levels from the broader structure, ChartNerd outlines several long-term upside targets:

  • Around $8 at the 1.272 extension
  • Near $13 at the 1.414 extension
  • An aggressive target near $27 at the 1.618 extension

These are long-term technical projections, not short-term predictions.

Image

2026 Could Be a Breakout Year

ChartNerd suggests 2026 could be a breakout year, with XRP potentially reaching a new all-time high. However, if XRP falls below its 13-month support, the bullish outlook would be invalid.

For now, remaining above the 2021 highs keeps the long-term bullish case alive, pointing to a potential major move toward 2026. Several other market watchers also offer bullish projections for XRP based on different technical structures.

XRP Forms “Pattern Within a Pattern” with Triple Bottom

Analyst EGRAG recently highlighted a “pattern within a pattern” as a bullish formation for XRP, alongside a Triple Bottom. This classic reversal pattern indicates buyer strength and sets up a potential breakout.

The Triple Bottom sits within a larger consolidation, reinforced by long-term moving averages and rising channels. Using Fibonacci analysis, EGRAG projects targets at $9.28 and $31.65—implying 5–17x gains from the current $1.89, possibly between 2026–2027.

Like ChartNerd, EGRAG notes that the bullish case holds as long as XRP remains above its key support. However, some analysts, such as The Great Martis, warn that breaking this support could trigger a gradual drop toward $0.50.

Dogecoin Price Analysis for Jan 27: Will DOGE Consolidate or Face More Downside?

0

Dogecoin is facing consolidation after recent volatility, with analysts watching for a potential breakout to determine its next move.

Notably, Dogecoin (DOGE) is seeing a slight 0.5% increase in the past day, now trading around $0.1218. This comes after testing a range between $0.1206–$0.1233. The price shows a consolidating trend after notable volatility. 

Dogecoin remains down 4% over 7 days and 11.9% in the last 14 days, showing it is struggling with short-term selling pressure. Further, the coin has declined over 30 days, with a slight decrease of 1.8% during that period. The price seems to be holding steady above key support levels around $0.12, but for a more sustained upward move, Dogecoin would need to break through its resistance levels.

Dogecoin Price Analysis

Notably, on Dogecoin’s daily chart from TradingView, the Supertrend indicator remains above the price, signaling a bearish trend as the coin faces resistance around $0.1416. On the other end, the price is held by a support level near $0.117, where price has previously reverted. 

DOGE Price Analysis
DOGE Price Analysis

The price action shows continued pressure on the downside, and for Dogecoin to shift momentum, it would need to break above this resistance. If it fails to break the resistance and sustain a move higher, further downside toward $0.10 could be expected.

The Relative Strength Index is at 38.47, which is below the neutral 50 level, suggesting weak momentum and that the coin is nearing oversold conditions. This indicates that Dogecoin could be due for a short-term bounce. With the Supertrend still in bearish territory, and the RSI indicating limited buying momentum, Dogecoin could continue to consolidate or face more downside before a meaningful recovery. 

Will Dogecoin Test Next Resistance

Elsewhere, analyst World of Charts suggests that Dogecoin is showing signs of potential upward movement after breaking out of its current consolidation range. 

Dogecoin Prediction
Dogecoin Prediction

Per the analyst, once the price moves above the horizontal zone, DOGE could begin targeting the next resistance levels, which lie between the $0.15 to $0.16 range in the coming period. 

Cardano Rejected at Key Supply Zone as Bearish Structure Persists

0

A bearish structure still has a grip on Cardano after the recent attempt to invalidate the pattern ended in a price rejection.

Cardano (ADA) could not overcome the selling pressure at the neckline resistance of a symmetrical triangle it once trended in. Following the rejection, it now faces renewed downward pressure targeting lower prices unless there is an immediate response.

Key Points

  • A bearish structure still has a grip on Cardano after the recent attempt to invalidate the pattern ended in a price rejection.
  • Cardano once trended within a symmetrical triangle on the 30-minute timeframe before bears dragged prices below the lower support trendline on Sunday.
  • ADA recovered from the low following a broader crypto rebound, reaching a high of $0.358 yesterday.
  • Again, this level proved too strong for the coin, forcing it lower and eventually out of the triangle.
  • Cardano will only invalidate this bearish scenario if it reclaims the triangle and closes above the resistance trendline.

Cardano Breaks Down

Notably, Cardano once trended within a symmetrical triangle on the 30-minute timeframe. The structure kept its price in check from January 20 until bears dragged prices below the lower support trendline on Sunday. Following the breakdown, it fell to a low of $0.332, pushing prices below the yearly opening of $0.334.

However, ADA recovered from the low following a broader crypto rebound, reaching a high of $0.358 yesterday. An accompanying chart shows that this high closely aligns with the descending resistance trendline of the symmetrical triangle, which broke down a few days ago.

Cardano Triangle Breakdown
Cardano Triangle Breakdown

Again, this level proved too strong for the coin, forcing it lower and eventually out of the triangle. As a result, the recent bounce appeared corrective, as ADA simply retested the triangle before a bearish continuation.

What Does It Mean for ADA

The rejection yesterday and bearish continuation today suggest that Cardano is in a full downtrend. Supported by choppy broader market conditions, it could trade lower, with the first target a retest of its January 25 lows.

Subsequent higher-timeframe lows include the December floor at $0.329 and the October flash lows at $0.273. Notably, this remains speculative, and there is no guarantee of this.

However, ADA could still reverse its current course. All it needs to do to invalidate this bearish scenario is to reclaim the triangle and close above the resistance trendline. This depends largely on bullish ecosystem development and a broader market recovery.

If You Hold 10M, 50M, or 100M Shiba Inu: What It Could Be Worth at $0.00009

0

As speculation builds around a potential Shiba Inu rally, investors are evaluating what their SHIB holdings could be worth if the token reaches $0.00009.

After hitting an all-time high of $0.00008845 in 2021, Shiba Inu entered a prolonged decline and added a zero to its price late last year. While confidence has faded for many holders, others still believe the token can set new highs.

Momentum recently picked up after lead developer Shytoshi Kusama broke a month-long silence on X. Upon returning, he disclosed that the AI initiative he had been developing for months was nearing completion, reigniting market interest and fueling upside expectations toward $0.00009.

Key Points

  • Market interest in Shiba Inu recently revived after lead developer Shytoshi Kusama returned to X after a month-long silence. 
  • Investors are now weighing what their SHIB holdings could be worth if the token reaches $0.00009. 
  • A surge to $0.00009 would require a rally of over 1,000% from the current price. 
  • This would translate to significant gains for investors, including those holding 10 million, 50 million, or 100 million SHIB. 

10M, 50M, 100M SHIB Value at $0.00009 

If achieved, $0.00009 would mark a new all-time high, surpassing SHIB’s previous peak by about 1.75%. At that level, the value of retail holdings, such as 10 million, 50 million, or 100 million SHIB, would rise sharply.

Currently, SHIB trades near $0.000007665, placing the cost of 10 million, 50 million, and 100 million tokens at roughly $76.65, $383.25, and $766.50, respectively. However, if SHIB rallies to $0.00009, those holdings would jump to $900, $4,500, and $9,000. This represents returns of $820, $4,117, and $8,200, respectively. 

Potential Timeline for a SHIB Move to $0.00009

Notably, the $0.00009 target has appeared in several forecasts with widely different timelines. Previously, ChatGPT projected that SHIB could reach $0.00009 before year-end. In contrast, Changelly initially pointed to October 2028, then revised its outlook to November 2031. 

Shiba Inu Potential Surge to $000009
Shiba Inu Potential Surge to $000009

Meanwhile, Telegaon estimates the target could materialize by 2029, earlier than Changelly’s latest projection.

Can SHIB Reach $0.00009? 

However, reaching $0.00009 from current levels remains a major challenge. From the current price of $0.000007665 price, SHIB would need to surge roughly 1,074% to set a new all-time high. At that level, its market cap would climb to about $53.03 billion, assuming the token maintains its circulating supply of 589.24 trillion tokens.

Although SHIB has delivered explosive gains in the past, conditions have changed. A massive token supply, slow ecosystem development, limited transparency from the team, and continued focus on other tokens weaken the case for such a rally. 

As a result, a move to $0.00009 appears increasingly unrealistic under current conditions; hence, this analysis should not be viewed as financial advice. 

XRP Forecast for Jan 27: Where Next as Supertrend Resistance Poses Potential Challenges?

0

XRP faces resistance at the Supertrend level, with price action trapped in a range, and analyst eyeing a potential breakout.

XRP has seen a modest increase of 0.8% over the past 24 hours, trading around $1.89 after testing the $1.93 level earlier in the day. The price fluctuated between $1.88–$1.93, briefly spiking before retracing back toward the lower part of the range. Despite the recent volatility, XRP has held steady above the $1.88 area.

According to CoinMarketCap, the 24-hour trading volume stands above $2.59 billion, down 19.84%. However, XRP’s market cap sits at $115.41 billion, up a modest 0.98%.

Performance-wise, XRP is down 3.6% over the past 7 days and 7.8% in the last 14 days, but it has shown a slight increase of 1.1% over the past 30 days. As XRP remains trapped in its recent range, traders will likely look for a breakout above the recent top at $1.93. Can XRP break this level?

XRP 1-Day Analysis

XRP’s daily chart shows continued bearish pressure, with the Supertrend indicator remaining above the price, signaling that the prevailing trend is still down. The price is currently testing support near $1.89, below the Supertrend level of $2.13. Notably, this suggests a potential challenge for buyers to break through this resistance. 

XRP/USD 1-Day Chart
XRP/USD 1-Day Chart

If XRP can test and beat this Supertrend resistance, it could signal a potential bullish shift, with the price targeting higher levels, likely starting around $2.20 and potentially extending towards $2.40.

Meanwhile, the Average Directional Index at 24.40 indicates that while there is some trend strength, it is not strong enough to confirm a clear bullish reversal at this point. This suggests that the market is still in a consolidation phase, with neither the buyers nor the sellers taking full control. 

XRP Price Discovery Coming?

On the commentary side, analyst Diana on X states that XRP’s $21.5+ roadmap has officially been unlocked with the start of Phase 4. This marks the expansion phase where the price historically accelerates. She highlights that XRP is breaking out of a multi-year flag, and despite the price topping near $3.65 in 2025 and correcting about 48%, the move has reset, not failed. 

XRP Price Analysis
XRP Price Analysis

Diana’s targets for the next phases are $4.8–$5.2 in the next 3–6 months (Target 1), followed by $7–$9 in 6–12 months (Target 2) as the coin consolidates above $5. The final target is $12–$20+ in 12–24 months (Target 3), contingent on breaking the all-time high and ensuring strong liquidity. Once XRP surpasses $3.65, it will enter price discovery.

XRP Forms Pattern Within a Pattern with Triple Bottom — How High Can XRP Go?

0

XRP is once again drawing attention on higher timeframes, as an analyst highlighted a bullish structure described as a “pattern within a pattern.”

This comes at a time when XRP recently dipped below the $1.90 support level, with analysts continuing to map out a recovery path toward a new all-time high.

Key Points

  • XRP forms a Triple Bottom, signaling a potential major breakout.
  • Pattern stacks within a larger structure, boosting bullish conviction.
  • Fibonacci targets suggest $9.28–$31.65 upside from $1.89.
  • Analysts warn support breach could trigger a drop to $0.50.

XRP Forms Patterns Within a Pattern

Analyst EGRAG shared a promising outlook for XRP in his latest post on X. At the center of the analysis is a Triple Bottom formation, a classic reversal setup that marks the end of prolonged consolidation.

According to EGRAG, XRP is not just forming a single bullish pattern, but stacking multiple technical structures on top of each other.

The Triple Bottom Formation

Notably, the Triple Bottom pattern forms when price tests the same support zone three separate times without breaking lower. On XRP’s chart, each dip was met with strong buying interest, as sellers are losing control while long-term holders continue defending key levels.

This repeated defense of support indicates exhaustion of downside pressure, confidence among buyers, and lays the foundation for a sustained upside breakout.

Indeed, as EGRAG’s chart illustrates, the triple bottom pattern has played out repeatedly over several years in XRP’s history, each time leading to massive breakouts. Based on the formation over the past year, he now expects a breakout to a new all-time high.

EGRAG's XRP chart
EGRAG’s XRP chart

“Patterns Within a Pattern”

What makes the present setup stand out is its position within a larger market structure. The Triple Bottom is forming inside a broader consolidation and breakout framework, supported by long-term moving averages and rising price channels.

In technical analysis, this kind of “pattern stacking” strengthens conviction. Rather than relying on a single indicator, multiple signals align. This layered setup is why EGRAG focuses on market structure rather than short-term price swings.

How High Will the Price Go?

EGRAG’s chart projects upside targets using Fibonacci extensions tied to the Triple Bottom breakout. The pattern suggests a move toward higher Fibonacci levels at the 1.272 and 1.618 extensions.

These levels correspond to XRP prices of $9.28 and $31.65, implying around a 5X to 17X surge from XRP’s current price of $1.89. While no specific timeline is attached, the chart suggests a potential window between 2026 and 2027.

The bullish case for XRP remains intact as long as it holds above former resistance, now acting as support. Maintaining this zone confirms the Triple Bottom, while a drop below it would require reevaluation.

Essentially, EGRAG’s analysis emphasizes that XRP’s chart isn’t showing exhaustion; it’s showing preparation.

Opposing View

Interestingly, while EGRAG is calling for new XRP peaks, some analysts argue that the price could crash below $1. For instance, analyst The Great Martis warns that XRP may fall further, as the market is still in a correction rather than at a bottom.

If the current support breaks, he said XRP could drop toward $0.50, which is a 73% decline from today’s price. The analyst stresses this wouldn’t be a sudden crash but a gradual, technical move within the market cycle.
