One of such recent predictions came from a crypto analyst who projected a surge to double-digit territory in the coming months.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The prediction comes as XRP is trading around the mid-$1 range, with weeks of tight consolidation and a lack of clear bullish momentum across the entire crypto market. However, the prediction is that XRP has ended its wave 2 accumulation and will rally to $13 within the next three months.<\/p>\n<h2><b>CryptoBull Says XRP Is Repeating The 2017 Bull Run Structure<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>The 2017 to 2018 bull run is one of the most powerful rallies in XRP\u2019s price history. During that cycle, the cryptocurrency&#8217;s price climbed from well below one cent to over $3 in a matter of months in a near-vertical move with few corrections.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, a crypto analyst known as CryptoBull believes XRP is mirroring this interesting 2017 bull cycle, Elliott Wave formation similar to the one that preceded XRP\u2019s explosive rally nearly a decade ago.<\/p>\n<p>In the chart he shared, the 2017 bull run is mapped out with a clear five-wave impulsive move that ended with a massive rally. He overlaid a projected 2026 scenario on the right side of the chart, with the current price action labeled as the completion of Wave 2. If that interpretation is true, that means Wave 3 is now about to be underway.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-882381\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/XRP-chart-from-CryptoBull.png?w=512&#038;resize=512%2C234\" alt=\"XRP\" width=\"512\" height=\"234\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Wave 2 has been playing out since XRP reached a new peak price of $3.65 in July 2025. The recent sideways price action between $1.4 and $1.5 can be looked at as an accumulation period before expansion.<\/p>\n<h2><b>Weekly Consolidation Range Keeps XRP At Important Level<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>XRP might still be subject to bullish outlooks, but the current price action is far from outright bullishness. Crypto analyst Guy on the Earth offered a more measured perspective with a focus on XRP\u2019s weekly chart structure.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/guyontheearth\/status\/2023289301057118517?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">noted by the analyst, <\/a>XRP recently finished the week inside a consolidation range formed between its 2021 all-time high and a lower high created during the rebound.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The weekly chart he shared shows XRP trading within a defined horizontal range, with the price in a clear downtrend since July 2025. The most important level highlighted is $1.41. According to his analysis, a weekly close below that zone would open the door for downside targets under $1, with the possibility of the XRP price falling to as low as $0.60.<\/p>\n<p>Although momentum changed slightly upward in recent trading sessions, there is still a need for confirmation. In that case, the weekly close above $1.41 is the decisive factor in determining whether XRP maintains its structure or enters a deeper correction phase. The XRP\/BTC pair is also bouncing from recent lows, and this is a sign that relative strength may be returning.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/b5yERZWM\/\" alt=\"XRP\" width=\"2108\" height=\"1628\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>XRP might be trading well below the $2 price level, but this hasn&#8217;t stopped outrageous predictions from its supporters.
