Analyst Projects XRP Price If Bitcoin Hit $150K, Following XRP/BTC Bullish MA Cross

Crypto market analyst Egrag Crypto has released a new technical analysis on the XRP/BTC pair, focusing on the interaction between the 55-week Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and the 155-week Moving Average (MA).

In his post, Egrag emphasized the importance of a recent bullish cross between these two indicators, suggesting that the chart structure may be pointing toward a strong upward move in the value of XRP against Bitcoin.

According to Egrag, the last time a bullish cross between the 55 EMA and 155 MA occurred was on May 15, 2017. Following that event, XRP/BTC surged by approximately 958%. This crossover has now reappeared, occurring again on February 17, 2025.

In Egrag’s view, this is a potentially pivotal moment. He believes the chart mimics historical behavior, where a failed retest of the 55 EMA previously led to a rapid upward movement.

Technical Analysis: Retests, Projections, and Moving Average Dynamics

In the chart, Egrag marked four distinct bottom formations within the XRP/BTC cycle, with each low followed by an eventual recovery. He argues that the bullish cross from February 2025 is a signal that should not be overlooked.

From a technical perspective, the analyst notes that if XRP/BTC were to retest the 55 EMA today, the pair would target approximately 0.00001850. Based on that ratio and assuming Bitcoin is priced at $80,000, XRP would reach around $1.48.

Further extrapolating from the historical price action, Egrag points out that if XRP/BTC were to repeat the 958% increase after the 2017 bullish cross, the pair would reach approximately 0.000171. Assuming Bitcoin trades at a retracement level around $97,000, this would equate to an XRP price of about $16.5.

XRP Valuations Based on Bitcoin Price Scenarios

The analysis also includes potential XRP valuations under various Bitcoin price scenarios. If Bitcoin reaches a new all-time high of $130,000, Egrag estimates XRP could climb to $22. If Bitcoin ascends to $150,000 or $170,000, XRP could rise to $25 or $29, respectively, based on the same XRP/BTC ratio target of 0.000171.

Egrag stresses that the key technical structure is supported as long as the XRP/BTC pair maintains its position above the 55 EMA. He asserts that the bullish cross is a structurally significant development for long-term holders and market observers tracking the XRP/BTC dynamics.

While the forecasted price levels rely on certain assumptions regarding Bitcoin’s price movements and historical analogues, Egrag maintains a confident stance. He closes his post with a strong message of support for the XRP community, encouraging them to remain steady and focused.
