Is An XRP Price Explosion Imminent? Crypto Analyst Sets $11 Target

The cryptocurrency market seemed to be in its recovery phase over the past week, with most large-cap assets recording significant gains to close the week. Specifically, the XRP price performance was the cream of the crop, with the altcoin showing strong signs of resurgence. The XRP token has picked up this year from where it left off in 2024, posting double-digit profit over the previous week. This single-week performance helped push the altcoin to become the third-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, displacing the USDT stablecoin. Can The Price Of XRP Soar 350% In 2025? In a recent post on the X platform, crypto analyst Ali Martinez shared an interesting analysis of the XRP price that captures the altcoin’s potential trajectory over the next few months. According to the crypto pundit, the third-largest cryptocurrency could be on track for a rally to around $11. Related Reading: MARA CEO Advocates “Invest And Forget” Approach To Bitcoin, Citing Strong Historical Performance The reasoning behind this prediction is the formation of a “massive” bull pennant price pattern on the 12-hour chart. A pennant is a technical analysis pattern characterized by a price spike (the flagpole) followed by a consolidation range with converging trend lines (the pennant) followed by a price breakout in the same direction as the initial flagpole. The pennant pattern looks similar to a bull flag, except that the latter’s consolidation range looks like a rectangle rather than a triangle. The bull pennant similarly serves as a continuation pattern, indicating the persistence of an upward trend. From the highlighted chart above, the relevant level to watch here is the $2.73 level, which is a significant resistance region. According to Martinez, a price correction to $2.05 is possible if the XRP witnesses rejection around the $2.73 mark. If the XRP price successfully breaches and closes above the $2.73 level, the altcoin could travel to a new all-time high of $11. This represents an over 350% rally from the current price point. XRP Price At A Glance As of this writing, the price of XRP stands at around $2.42, reflecting a 1% decline in the past 24 hours. This decline has yet to impact the weekly performance of the altcoin, with the XRP price up by more than 16% in the last seven days.

Analyst Identifies Bitcoin Key Support Levels Amid Rebound Challenge – Details

The price of Bitcoin has shown no significant movement in the past day following a price rebound at the start of January 2025. Currently trading near $98,000, speculation is mounting about whether Bitcoin has exited its correction phase, with high expectations of an impending bull market. Related Reading: Short-Term Bitcoin Holders See 10% Profit – Potential Impact On Price? Strong Bitcoin Support Zone Emerges Between $95,090-$96,531 In an X post on January 4, digital asset analysis platform More Crypto Online shared an insight on the present state of the Bitcoin market.  With the application of the Elliott Wave Theory, these analysts deduced that Bitcoin’s price may have developed a potential 5-wave pattern which can be indicative of a bullish movement. For context, the Elliott Wave Theory works on the basis that financial markets move in predictable patterns due to investor psychology and natural market rhythms.  The 5-wave pattern also known as the impulsive wave pattern generally moves in the direction of the larger trend. With Bitcoin still in a bullish shape despite recent corrections, the completion of the 5-wave pattern to the upward direction indicates a strong price rally i.e. BTC is out of correction with a focus on new highs.  However, in order to solidify this notion of impending new all-time highs, Bitcoin must break above the December 26th price peak of $99,900 which represents a major resistance level.  In the advent of any rejections/retracements amidst this bullish charge, the crypto analysts at More Crypto Online have pinpointed a significant support zone between $95,090 – $96,531 capable of acting as a cushion for retest. Albeit, if there is an overwhelming selling pressure, Bitcoin could slide as low as $92,950 representing a potential 5.5% fall from its current market price.

Meanwhile, the asset’s daily trading volume has dipped by 17.25% and is valued at $30.03 billion. Bitcoin has also risen 3.57% over the past week but remains down 3.79% for the month. The premier cryptocurrency remains one of the best-performing coins in the last year having a profit of 121.32% in this timeframe. According to data from Coincodex, sentiments in the BTC remain bullish with the Fear & Greed Index now at 73 reflecting an “almost” extreme greed among investors. With the crypto bull market set to take off with the potential of a pro-crypto US government on the horizon, the analysts at Coincodex predict Bitcoin to reach $132,775 in the first quarter of 2025, and rise as high as $172,192 by June.
