XRP could be entering the next phase of its long-term price cycle, according to crypto analyst Dark Defender (@DefendDark). His latest weekly chart outlines a completed Wave 4 correction and projects a strong Wave 5 advance that could lift the token into double-digit territory.
Alongside the price structure, the analyst highlighted a fresh bullish signal in the weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI), adding to his positive outlook. Dark Defender said, “XRP weekly is quietly turning.” He added that the “Macro Wave 4 Low Is Likely In” and predicted a move to double digits for Wave 5.
And now, $XRP weekly is quietly turning.
The Macro Wave 4 Low Is Likely In, Wave 5 Surge to Double Digits is Loading.
A hidden bullish divergence just printed on the weekly RSI, too.

Wave 4 Structure Suggests Trend Reversal
Dark Defender’s chart follows an Elliott Wave count that labels the peak of XRP’s late 2024 surge as the end of Wave 3 before tracking a prolonged Wave 4 correction. The latest low appears at the lower boundary of a long-term ascending channel, where the chart marks the end of Wave 4 as the likely bottom.
The projected path then shows XRP moving sharply higher into Wave 5. The forecast extends through the upper boundary of the channel and reaches beyond $8 before heading toward the $10 region. The chart presents this move as the next stage of the long-term trend.
Key XRP Price Targets
The chart includes several Fibonacci extension levels that could act as important price zones if XRP continues higher. The 100% extension stands at $0.9327, while the 123.60% level sits at $1.2193. Above that, the 161.80% extension is marked at $1.8815, followed by the 200% level at $2.9032.
The highest displayed Fibonacci target was 261.80% at $5.8563. Dark Defender’s projected Wave 5 path continues above that level and finishes near the upper trendline in double-digit territory.

Weekly RSI Prints Bullish Divergence
The chart also highlights a hidden bullish divergence on the weekly RSI. Dark Defender circled two lows on both the price chart and the RSI to illustrate the pattern. While XRP revisited support near the lower channel boundary, the RSI formed a stronger low.
The RSI currently sits near the mid-30 range on the chart. Dark Defender identified the divergence as another signal supporting his view that the Wave 4 correction has likely ended.
Levels to Watch
The chart shows XRP trading above the lower boundary of the ascending channel after rebounding from the recent low. That trendline now serves as an important support level in the analyst’s outlook. Based on the chart, $1.2193 and $1.8815 stand out as the next resistance levels.
