A recent analysis by cryptocurrency market strategist Mikybull Crypto (@MikybullCrypto) has drawn attention to XRP’s current price structure, suggesting it may be poised for a substantial market movement. The analyst’s observations have generated interest among enthusiasts and market watchers.
Mikybull Crypto described the current formation on XRP’s chart as a “technical time bomb waiting for an explosion,” and his analysis focuses on the asset’s long-term price chart, which he believes exhibits patterns reminiscent of those seen in 2017.
This period was notable, as it preceded a significant price surge that sent the digital asset to its all-time high of $3.84. The current chart shows XRP consolidating within a narrow range, a behavior that has historically preceded periods of increased volatility.
Historical Context and an Explosive Pattern
In early 2017, the digital asset entered a period of consolidation, showing compressed candlestick patterns. This phase was followed by a rapid price increase, culminating in XRP reaching its all-time high in January 2018. The subsequent market correction led to a bearish trend, forming another recognizable pattern on the charts.
Mikybull Crypto’s chart reveals that the asset has been trading within a large triangular formation and is approaching a critical juncture. This pattern and other technical indicators suggest that XRP may be preparing for a significant price movement.
Another key indicator highlighted in the analysis is the Bollinger Bands, a tool used to measure market volatility. The current compression of these bands on XRP’s chart is similar to the pattern observed before previous major price movements.
This tightening of the bands is often interpreted as a precursor to increased volatility. Another prominent analyst recently drew attention to the tightening Bollinger Bands, suggesting the digital asset might repeat its 2017 surge.

Potential Price Targets
In his analysis, Mikybull Crypto refrains from specifying exact price targets for XRP in this potential upcoming movement. However, in March, the analyst set a $6 target for the digital asset, based on a breakout of a smaller triangle it had been consolidating in.
However, other analysts have set significantly higher targets. Dark Defender, a prominent crypto analyst, recently revealed that his minimum target for XRP is $333. Although their targets vary, the top analysts agree that XRP will rise. The digital asset is trading at $0.5829, but won’t be there for long.
