Respected market technician Matt Hughes, known on X as The Great Mattsby, believes XRP is approaching a pivotal moment. In a post on August 28, he declared, “Will XRP still moon? Absolutely! It’s not if, it’s when,” pointing to a multi-year Gann Fan chart as proof.
According to Mattsby, XRP has already flipped a series of historic resistance lines into support and is now challenging what he calls the “final boss” angle. This is the last major diagonal barrier that could open the door to a massive price breakout.
Understanding the Gann Fan Setup
A Gann Fan projects angled lines from a key high or low to highlight dynamic support and resistance over time. Traders watch these diagonals closely because price often reacts to them as it would to horizontal levels.
Mattsby’s chart, which spans from XRP’s 2017 peak through its 2021 surge and the latest 2025 rally, shows that each major rally paused or reversed exactly at these fan lines before eventually converting them into support.
The “final boss” angle currently hovers around the $3.00–$3.10 zone, an area that has repeatedly capped rallies for nearly eight years. Mattsby argues that a clean breakout and retest of this angle would signal the start of a powerful new uptrend.

Why This Flip Matters
Technical analysts view a successful flip of resistance into support as confirmation of trend reversal. If XRP can hold above this last Gann angle on a weekly closing basis—ideally with strong trading volume—it would remove a structural ceiling that has constrained price since 2018.
This would dramatically improve the bullish outlook, creating a clear path toward retesting previous highs and potentially setting fresh records.
Market Conditions and Risks
As of report time, XRP trades near $3.00, consolidating after a sharp summer rally. Momentum indicators reveal mixed signals: while the broader uptrend remains intact, some analysts highlight possible bearish divergences and caution that false breakouts are still a risk.
Until a sustained close and successful retest above the “final boss” line occurs, traders should remain alert and manage risk carefully.

What Traders Should Watch Next
To validate Mattsby’s bullish scenario, three conditions would strengthen the case:
- A decisive weekly close above the $3.10 Gann angle.
- A retest where that angle holds as support.
- Expanding trading volume confirms buyer conviction.
Meeting these criteria would mark a historic technical shift, transforming a multi-year resistance into a springboard for higher prices.
Bottom Line
The Great Mattsby’s analysis offers a clear, testable signal rather than a vague prediction. XRP has already demonstrated its ability to reclaim lower Gann angles as support, and flipping the final one could unleash the “moonshot” rally long-time holders have awaited.
Until then, patience and disciplined risk management remain essential—but if the final boss falls, the next chapter in XRP’s price history could be explosive.
