Crypto Analyst Shares Profit-Taking Advice for XRP Holders

Following Ripple’s recent legal victory, XRP experienced a significant price increase, prompting enthusiasm among investors. However, a closer examination of historical price patterns suggests that this rally may be short-lived.

Cryptocurrency analyst Nick Valdez of Discover Crypto channel, has cautioned XRP holders to exercise prudence and consider securing profits from the current price surge. Valdez’s analysis is based on XRP’s historical price movements in response to major events.

Valdez points to two specific instances: the initial SEC lawsuit against Ripple in 2020 and a previous legal victory. In both cases, XRP’s price experienced a substantial increase initially, only to revert to previous levels within a short period.

For example, following the SEC lawsuit announcement in December 2020, XRP’s price experienced a substantial decline. However, within a few weeks, it recovered to its pre-lawsuit level, demonstrating a temporary impact on the market.

Similarly, after a legal victory in July 2023, where the court ruled that XRP is not a security, the digital currency’s value surged dramatically, doubling within a day to reach $0.93 from an initial price of approximately $0.47. Nonetheless, the price subsequently experienced a significant correction, returning to its original level of $0.47 roughly a month later.

Potential Price Stabilization

Given these historical precedents, Valdez suggests that XRP’s current price surge may be a short-term phenomenon. The analyst predicts a potential price stabilization between $0.40 and $0.50 by mid-September, advising investors to consider realizing profits before a drop in XRP’s price.

It is important to note that XRP’s price has started to decline from its post-lawsuit peak. According to the data from CoinMarketCap, XRP is currently trading at $0.5672. While Valdez maintains a long-term bullish outlook on XRP due to its potential role in the global financial system, he emphasizes the need for caution in the short term.

The analyst further suggests that XRP may encounter resistance at the $0.93 level, making it a challenging price target to achieve in the current market conditions.

While the recent legal victory for Ripple has undoubtedly generated excitement in and out of the XRP community, historical data suggests that the current price surge may be temporary.
