The altcoin market is once again showing signs of strength after a prolonged consolidation. Crypto analyst Xaif (@Xaif_Crypto) recently highlighted a repeating technical structure on the altcoin market capitalization chart, which he believes signals the start of 2025’s altseason.
The chart shows a third breakout above a descending resistance line, with the analyst projecting a “200x potential” rally if the pattern continues to play out. In previous cycles, similar moves produced sharp expansions.
The first breakout in early 2024 was followed by a 150x rally, while the second breakout later that year extended into a 175x climb. Both sequences began with steep declines under a downward-sloping red trendline, followed by a breakout, a retest of the former resistance, and then a sustained push higher. The same formation now appears to be emerging again.

The Structure Behind The 200x Projection
Xaif’s chart emphasizes three repeating stages. The market experiences a gradual decline under a descending resistance trendline, then breaks upward through the trendline, and finally retests that breakout point before surging.
According to this reading, the market is now completing the third stage once again. The current candle shows a confirmed move above the descending resistance, with the retest holding as support.
The breakout has begun as the climb coincided with XRP’s recent rise to a new all-time high. If the structure repeats in line with the earlier patterns, the setup could act as the foundation for a major 200x rally and another altseason.

XRP Positioned at the Front
With the market now shifting toward the altcoin season, Xaif specifically pointed to XRP as the likely leader of the next bull run. The reasoning reflects the role of large-cap tokens in early phases of altcoin cycles. When total capitalization breaks out, capital typically flows into assets with strong liquidity and established market depth before rotating into smaller tokens.
XRP’s position as one of the largest and most widely traded altcoins makes it a natural candidate for leadership in such a scenario. Experts have consistently predicted that XRP will flip Ethereum in this cycle to become the second-largest cryptocurrency. This will put it at the front of the altcoin market.
For XRP to confirm that role, traders will be watching for higher lows, sustained closes above resistance levels, and rising volume during rallies. Early strength in XRP while the broader altcoin market breaks out would strengthen the case for it leading the cycle.
