Market observers often mistake sideways action for the end of a trend. Yet the latest positioning in XRP suggests something very different. Rather than the bull run ending, many analysts view this as a transitional “distribution” zone preceding the next leg up.
According to Cointelegraph, prominent analysts are maintaining aggressive cycle-top targets of between $10 and $30 for XRP, despite the current lull. The reasoning: the current phase is not full liquidation, but strategic repositioning before a large breakout.

Technical Structure: Consolidation, Not Collapse
On multiple timeframes, XRP is consolidating within defined ranges rather than breaking down. Analysts reference a historical pattern where similar phases preceded sharp advances. The message: as long as major support holds, the bullish structure remains intact.
Supporting the bullish thesis, exchange reserves of XRP are declining — a sign of accumulation rather than desperation. When large holders withdraw tokens from exchanges, it often signals less willingness to sell, which may compress supply ahead of demand.
Central to the bullish argument is the potential approval and launch of a U.S. spot XRP ETF. The first listings have been certified through regulatory mechanisms. Analysts anticipate this event will serve as a major institutional‐access trigger and could funnel sizable capital into XRP.

Risks That Could Derail the Momentum
The bullish case is far from guaranteed. A handful of caveats remain: if the ETF approval timeline slips or if macro conditions sour, market sentiment could turn. Likewise, if XRP falls below key technical supports, the thesis weakens.
What’s Next for Traders and Investors
With targets still set at $10-$30, progression depends on the execution of catalysts, not just sentiment. If institutional flows via a spot ETF materialize and supply remains constrained, the path to higher targets becomes plausible.
In contrast, without that execution, XRP may consolidate further or drift. The distribution phase is one of preparation, not conclusion, according to the analysts featured by Cointelegraph.
