Dr Cat (@DoctorCatX), a well-known crypto analyst primarily focused on Bitcoin, recently shared a detailed technical view highlighting XRP as the strongest chart in the crypto market. Although he rarely monitors altcoins, he emphasized that XRP currently outperforms even Bitcoin in weekly structure.
He shared a detailed comparison of XRP and Bitcoin weekly Ichimoku charts, emphasizing XRP’s ongoing bullish structure while Bitcoin shows technical deterioration.
To illustrate why $XRP is the strongest chart in crypto (I barely follow altcoins but at least I don't know any other stronger than $BTC):

Bitcoin Loses Key Support on Weekly Timeframe
According to Dr Cat, Bitcoin has lost the Kijun Sen and formed a death cross on the weekly chart. Even if the cross turns out to be false, he says it still represents a victory for the bears. The chart in the tweet captioned Bitcoin’s drop below key support, with the price sitting beneath both the Tenkan Sen and Kijun Sen lines.
The cloud formation also shows weakness, placing BTC in a vulnerable technical position. Notably, another prominent analyst has referenced Dr Cat’s Kijun Sen analysis to predict that XRP will outperform all major cryptocurrencies, and the asset is currently showing those signs.

XRP Maintains Bullish Structure and Momentum
XRP remains above its Kijun Sen, with the Tenkan Sen still above it. This alignment typically signals trend continuation to the upside. Dr Cat noted that the digital asset is still on track to hit a new all-time high of $4.5 in May. His chart shows XRP’s price comfortably holding support, with no death cross present.
Dr Cat also noted that many altcoins, including Ethereum, show bearish signs in their weekly chart. This observation further distinguishes XRP’s current strength. While many altcoins have broken below key levels, the digital asset’s Ichimoku structure remains intact.
Bulls Remain in Control
Despite acknowledging that he doesn’t follow altcoins closely, his comparison shows that XRP has emerged as a strong competitor and is now technically stronger than Bitcoin. He concluded that XRP bulls “still have full control,” a rare situation in a market where even Bitcoin struggles to regain bullish momentum.
Recent analysis shows that XRP has outperformed Ethereum for five consecutive months, and Dr Cat’s analysis positions XRP as a standout performer in a weakening crypto landscape. While the asset is trading at $2.05, traders now view its structure as a sign of strength heading into May, and it could hit a new all-time high as Dr Cat predicts.
