Analyst Predicts XRP Surge

A widely followed analyst is predicting a massive new all-time high this year for one payment-focused altcoin.

Pseudonymous analyst Credible Crypto tells his 465,400 followers on the social media platform X that XRP may soar more than 976% from its current value.

The analyst utilizes the Elliott Wave theory, which states that a bullish asset tends to see a five-wave surge where waves two and four are corrective periods and waves one, three, and five are upside moves.

Big Picture

Looking at his chart, the analyst suggests XRP is on the verge of forming a third wave; ultimately, he predicts that the fifth wave may take XRP to $28.

He also states that XRP may not dip below $2 any time soon as market conditions, such as open interest, appear to mirror the conditions before the previous breakout.

Open interest is the total number of derivatives contracts taken out for an asset.

> “XRP is still down about 15% from where I took profit on perp longs but starting to doubt that I may get another chance to re-load below $2. Open interest has completely reset back to levels it was at before our 5x impulse off the lows, spot premium is steadily increasing here at the highs, and funding is even flipping negative. Overall, XRP looks incredibly healthy here and any dips that we may get are a gift.”

XRP is trading for $2.60 at the time of writing, up 3.9% in the last 24 hours.
