XRP spent over a year in a downtrend. From July 2025 through mid-2026, the weekly chart told a consistent story. The price peaked at $3.65, then fell.
Every recovery attempt stalled at the same descending trendline. Crypto analyst Marmot (@Web3Marmot) tracked five separate rejections along that line, each one highlighted on his chart. The trendline held as resistance for just over a year. Now, a single green candle has finally crossed above it.
Most people are missing this.
But $XRP has finally broken out of the downtrend from July 2025.
The year-long compression is over.
Here's how I expect the $XRP chart to play out:
$1.10 → $1.40 → $1.80
$1.80 → $1.60 → $2.20
$2.20 → $2.80 → $3.60

Five Rejections, Then a Break
The trendline descends from $3.65 in July 2025 toward $0.80 by September 2026. This suggests that XRP would have dropped below $1 if this breakout did not occur. Each marked point shows the asset touching the line before reversing lower. The rejections occurred across July 2025, October 2025 just before a notable flash crash, January 2026, May 2026, and July 2026.
The most recent candle, a green weekly close, broke above that line for the first time in over a year. Marmot’s read on it was clear: “XRP has finally broken out of the downtrend from July 2025. The year-long compression is over.”
The Three-Stage Target Plan
Marmot published a sequential price target plan alongside the chart. The first stage runs from $1.10 to $1.40, then up to $1.80. The second stage pulls back from $1.80 to $1.60 before pushing to $2.20.
The third stage raises the price from $2.20 to $2.80, with a final target of $3.60, and the chart suggests it could move higher. The gray candles projected on the right side of the chart illustrate the anticipated trajectory.
He stated, “The explosive expansion can hit at any moment.” XRP traded at $1.1498 at the time of his analysis. The breakout is fresh, and Marmot’s target sequence starts right at current price levels, making the timing of his call significant.

A Major Shift for XRP
For a year, every attempt to reclaim the trendline failed. Sellers defended it at five distinct points across the chart. The July 2026 green candle changed that. It crossed above the line at approximately $1.15, a level the trendline had been declining toward. Marmot sees that cross as the start of a sustained advance.
Marmot also pointed to a track record of accurate calls, noting he has “called every major turn for the last few years, including short BTC from $111K in October.” He stated that if the market shifts, he would inform his community. The current path runs through three stages of gains before reaching $3.60 and higher.
