Nothing can stop it.

Community Reactions
Dark Defender has maintained this conviction for a long time. He recently published a chart projecting a five-wave Elliott Wave impulse from $1.39 to a target of $10.11, with Wave (3) pointing to $7.08 as the first major stop on that journey.
One community member shared a similar target, saying XRP needs to clear $7 before the bullish move can be confirmed as fully underway. The responses were largely enthusiastic, with another commenter calling the bullish outcome inevitable. Another said the asset is always moving forward.
Dissent in the Community
Not everyone was unconditionally bullish. One commenter cautioned that the brake discs are damaged, suggesting some technical concern about the current trajectory. Another raised the risk that a single negative statement from President Trump could derail the move.
Trump has consistently supported cryptocurrencies throughout his administration. However, a shift in his stance could significantly hinder the market’s growth and even cause a major collapse.
Dark Defender’s Confidence in XRP
Dark Defender’s confidence extends beyond price charts. When the U.S. Senate voted down the CLARITY Act on September 15 by 50 votes to 49, he did not revise his outlook. He had already stated before the vote that “XRP is not waiting for the Clarity Act. The wave pattern will emerge: with or without it.”
His technical case rests on pattern repetition across multiple timeframes. He sees XRP replicating an Exponential Moving Average Jumping Pattern that previously appeared before a 500% rally. In his view, that structure is already active regardless of legislative outcomes.

Supporting the Bullish Case
Dark Defender’s long-term analysis projects Grand Wave 3 reaching $333, derived from the 161.8% Fibonacci extension of the full impulse structure. He has kept that target consistent across multiple analytical approaches, stating: “No matter how you approach it, the target stays the same.”
He also argues that XRP will outperform both Bitcoin and Ethereum. He has stated that XRP will “not only dominate Bitcoin but also Ether,” appreciating against both before surpassing them entirely with Wave 5. The targets remain unchanged. And in his own words, nothing can stop it.
