The cryptocurrency market continues to buzz with speculation surrounding XRP’s recent price action and potential for future gains.
A recent analysis by trader CRYPTOWZRD, reshared by Cointelegraph, highlights that XRP has successfully flipped a critical resistance level into support.
According to CRYPTOWZRD, this technical move lays the groundwork for a rally toward $4.00, with the possibility of reaching $8.00 on higher timeframes.

Technical Insights
The analysis shared includes two key charts, both pointing to XRP’s technical breakout:
USD Pair Analysis: The weekly chart showcases XRP breaking out of a multi-year triangle pattern. This breakout is accompanied by a flip of old resistance into support, a historically bullish signal in technical analysis. The trader draws parallels to XRP’s price action in 2017, where a similar structure led to exponential price growth.
BTC Pair Perspective: The XRP/BTC chart emphasizes that XRP is trading at its highest weekly close since October 2022. The pair has also surpassed a four-year weekly resistance level, indicating strong momentum. A breakout above these levels could lead to further gains as market participants re-enter the asset.
CRYPTOWZRD predicts that these flips could act as catalysts for a sharp price increase, with the potential for XRP to reach $4.00 in the medium term and $8.00 over the long term.
Market Reactions and Skepticism
The crypto community has responded with mixed reactions to these bullish predictions.
Some traders and analysts share CRYPTOWZRD’s sentiment. They emphasize that flipping resistance into support is a classic technical move that often precedes strong upward momentum.

Other community members, such as Gavun WUD Agent, caution against relying solely on technical analysis. Gavun notes that while flipping resistance to support is noteworthy, the real test for XRP lies in its network fundamentals and utility. Without significant progress in these areas, historical patterns alone may not guarantee future performance.
The Great Pupdini took a sarcastic tone, questioning the reliability of technical analysis and drawing comparisons to astrology. He urged investors to consider on-chain metrics and regulatory developments instead of speculative chart patterns.
Current Market Context
At the time of the analysis, XRP is trading at $2.54, reflecting a substantial recovery in 2024 following a prolonged bear market. The broader market sentiment has improved, aided by reduced regulatory uncertainty in the U.S. and the growing adoption of blockchain technology.
While the prediction of XRP rallying to $4 or even $8 is speculative, the technical indicators shared by CRYPTOWZRD suggest that the asset has entered a bullish phase. However, as highlighted by community members, technical analysis alone may not suffice.
