NAIROBI (CoinChapter.com)— Crypto analysts are predicting a major breakout for Ripple (XRP) as the digital asset climbs 14.71% over the past week to trade at $0.582. After nearly three years of being range-bound, experts believe XRP is set for what they call an “explosive” move.
Is XRP Breaking Out of a 1,000-Day Stall?
Crypto analyst 360Trader described XRP’s prolonged price stagnation as a “price pinch” that has lasted for nearly three years. He warned that the apparent calm could soon give way to a major price movement, saying, “The explosion is coming… sooner rather than later.” Similar patterns in the past, according to him, have often led to sharp price surges.
Another analyst, Dark Defender, claimed that there is likely a bull run beginning on November 24, based on technical factors such as a reversal in the average Bitcoin Dominance factor by relative strength index for the month. He said that it reminded him of ‘January 2021’ when XRP increased from $0.17 to $1.97.
Another crypto analyst, Mikybull Crypto, highlighted XRP’s strong performance after the U.S. election cycle. He suggested that macroeconomic factors tied to elections often create conditions for XRP to rally. Based on historical patterns, Milkybull’s analysis pointed to $19 as a possible target for the token.
