]]> Peter Brandt recently took to X to share a long rant about XRP and four other major assets. He shared his belief in the concept of measured moves, saying targets and objectives aren’t sacred. Charts often fail to deliver what is first identified and morph into something else. That is the foundation of his analysis.

He trades price exclusively and says he “could care less about the fundamentals of XRP or any other coin than BTC.” To XRP fans, he believes his analysis isn’t meant as an offense. “I trade price. Price is all that matters to me.”

XRP Carries the Heaviest Overhead Supply

XRP trades at $1.51 on the weekly chart. Brandt identifies a Cup and Handle on the asset’s chart. On a larger time scale, that same C&H may be forming the right shoulder of a Head and Shoulders pattern. This is the chart change Brandt warns about. One pattern is identified only to turn into something else.

The measured move from the inverted H&S projects to $2.16, derived by applying the height of the formation to the daily closing price. The right shoulder is poorly formed and abbreviated. This would suggest further right shoulder development is likely, but not necessary.

The bigger problem is overhead supply. Brandt says there is “a TON of overhead supply to work through” in XRP and calls it a direct negative. The weekly chart confirms it, with price at $1.51 sitting well below the 2025 high of $3.65.

SOL’s Cup and Handle on a Different Level

Solana trades at $121.06 on the weekly chart. Brandt describes it as showing “a Cup and Handle on a different level than XRP.” The chart shows a multi-year cup with a clear rim near $260, built across the 2021 peak and the 2024-2025 rally. The price is recovering from lows near $75 with less congestion at key resistance levels than XRP carries.

ETH and XLM Both Face Less Overhead Supply

Brandt notes ETH has “massive congestion” but without “the same type of overhead supply that we find in XRP.” Although other analysts have predicted that XRP will dominate ETH, that distinction places ETH in a structurally stronger position than XRP on that measure.

Brandt also flags XLM as carrying overhead supply similar to XRP, but with a different magnitude. That is the extent of the comparison he draws between the two. He has also previously called XLM a good pick for a long-shot bet.

XMR is Brandt’s Clear Favorite

Monero trades at $560.88. Brandt calls it his favorite by far. The weekly chart shows a long-term ascending resistance line from the 2021 high that XMR broke above in 2026. The price has continued higher since. All the overhead supply has been absorbed.

Brandt says it is “clear sailing ahead.” He doesn’t know the fundamental narrative behind XMR but believes he doesn’t need to.

What Separates All Five Assets?

Brandt’s preference comes down to one thing. XMR absorbed its overhead supply. SOL navigates it well. ETH carries congestion but avoids XRP’s specific problem. XLM shares XRP’s burden on a smaller scale. XRP carries the most of any asset in this comparison.

]]> Veteran commodity and crypto trader Peter Brandt has posted another trending XRP chart. This time, he added a coffee mug to the technical setup and marked $1.6572 as a key level above the current price.

The unusual image references the classic cup-and-handle pattern, although Brandt did not explicitly identify the formation in his post. The chart adds another technical observation to a series of XRP posts Brandt has published over the past two weeks.

Brandt Marks $1.6572 on XRP Chart

Brandt’s recent chart tracks XRP against the U.S. dollar on the daily timeframe. The chart shows XRP trading near $1.5230 when Brandt published the image, while recent price action continues to consolidate around $1.50.

Brandt marks $1.6572 with a horizontal line above the current price. XRP previously approached that region during its September advance before pulling back and entering a period of sideways trading.

The coffee mug sits over the middle section of the chart. Brandt didn’t explain the image, but the placement could reference a cup-and-handle pattern. Technical analysts use that pattern to describe a rounded consolidation, followed by a smaller pullback that can precede a move higher.

The XRP chart shows a prolonged rounded structure before the September advance, followed by consolidation near $1.50. That structure could explain why Brandt chose a coffee mug for the latest post. However, Brandt has not confirmed that he intended the image as a cup-and-handle reference.

Brandt Continues His XRP Chart Posts

Brandt has now published his third XRP chart in roughly two weeks.

On September 22, Brandt shared a monthly XRP/USD chart that pointed to an eventual $5.40 advance. He also warned readers that a chart does not represent a trade and that an X post does not constitute proof.

Five days later, Brandt shared another XRP chart that showed a possible inverse head-and-shoulders formation. XRP traded around $1.52 at the time, and Brandt said charts alone had always given him enough reason to make a bet.

His latest post continues that recent focus on XRP’s technical structure. Rather than provide a lengthy written analysis, Brandt uses the chart itself to show the price action and the $1.6572 level he has marked.

Brandt’s Earlier XRP Position

Brandt’s recent technical analysis contrasts with his earlier criticism of XRP. He called XRP a scam in 2020 but retracted it in 2021. He later criticized XRP investors for what he considered excessive bias and questioned aspects of XRP’s fundamentals.

His recent posts have focused more directly on price charts and technical formations. His September chart carried a $5.40 long-term target, while his second chart presented a possible inverse head-and-shoulders setup.

The recent chart shows another possible technical reference through the coffee mug. If Brandt intended the image to represent a cup-and-handle formation, the $1.6572 level could become an important area for traders watching the setup. Brandt, however, has not explicitly confirmed that interpretation.

For now, XRP remains near $1.52 and below the $1.6572 level on Brandt’s chart. The next move toward or away from that level will determine whether the technical structure develops further.

]]> Veteran trader Peter Brandt recently dropped a major prediction for Stellar (XLM). “If you want to bet on a long shot (next few years), XLM is a good pick,” he wrote. The post offered both a price target and a chart structure to support that view.

The Chart Structure

The monthly chart covers XLM’s price history from 2018 through late 2026. A declining upper trendline connects each successive cycle high, with peaks moving lower over time. The 2018 high reached $0.9381. The 2021 high came in near $0.75. The 2025 high reached approximately $0.65. Each rally failed at a lower level than the previous.

Below the price action, a rising trendline has held as support across the same multi-year period. The asset’s price has returned to that level repeatedly and held. XLM currently sits at $0.23041, near that long-term support line. Brandt is convinced that the long-term trajectory is bullish.

Indicators and Moving Averages

The chart displays two moving averages. The 18-period average sits at $0.23041, and the 8-period average sits at $0.18827. Price is trading between those two levels. The ADX reads 33.91, indicating trend strength. The 30-period Average True Range is $0.1075, reflecting significant volatility on the monthly timeframe.

A Recurring Cycle

Brandt previously identified constructive technical structure in XLM, describing the asset as one that “could become a rock star.” That earlier analysis noted a rising support base and long-term resistance that had capped the asset since 2018.

The chart labels two prior lows as “SH” and “S,” visible near the 2019-2020 base. That base preceded the 2021 rally that took XLM above $0.70. The current price sits in a comparable zone near long-term support. Each of the three major rallies on the chart originated from a similar position.

The Price Target of His Multi-Year Thesis

Brandt has marked a price target of $1.17605 on the chart. It appears as a horizontal green line. Reaching that level from the current price would require about a 410% rally. Brandt’s post suggests this is not a short-term trade. He also set a long-term target for XRP. His analysis is grounded in technical patterns and data.

Brandt has included XLM among a small group of assets he views constructively alongside Bitcoin, XRP, and Ethereum. His latest post extends that view with a defined upside target and a timeframe measured in years.

]]> Crypto commentator Xaif (@Xaif_Crypto) recently shared a clip of veteran trader Peter Brandt demeaning XRP’s well-known utility. His argument is simple: being useful for transactions does not make an asset inherently valuable.

He uses the U.S. dollar as his example. “The U.S. dollar can be effectively used for transactional purposes as well,” Brandt says.

“We’re not speculating. We’re not all buying dollars because we believe it’s a transactional asset.” He argues that XRP holders need a stronger reason to assign value to the token than its utility for cheap transfers.

Supply is Another Open Question

Brandt also raises concerns about XRP’s supply. He acknowledges that questions remain about whether the total supply will expand over time. “Will we have expansion of the supply? There are things that we don’t know about XRP,” he says. For a market analyst who builds positions on knowable data, that uncertainty is a real obstacle.

He does not dismiss XRP entirely. He accepts that it works efficiently for transactions. He argues that transactional utility alone does not resolve the valuation question. He believes a reliable pricing framework requires more clarity than XRP currently offers.

He contrasts this with Bitcoin, which he sees as a store of value rather than a transactional coin. According to the analyst, that distinction makes Bitcoin easier to evaluate. XRP sits in a different category, and Brandt believes investors haven’t found the right tools to price it fairly.

The Community Pushes Back

The responses to Xaif’s post reflect strong disagreement with Brandt’s position. One commenter argued that Brandt’s dollar comparison misses a critical feature of XRP: its ability to bridge assets in cross-border and currency exchange transactions. The dollar cannot do this independently or cheaply.

Another said Brandt lacks a working understanding of XRP’s escrow structure and timed release schedule, and extended that criticism to most users on the platform. One commenter questioned why Brandt gained attention at all, suggesting his analysis has not kept pace with the market.

Where Brandt Stands On XRP

This video’s notable aspect is the contrast it creates with Brandt’s recent technical work. He set a long-term XRP price target of $5.40 based on chart structure. His skepticism about the asset’s fundamental value case runs alongside a bullish read of its price action.

Brandt has been clear that chart analysis is not a trade recommendation. He said the chart tells one story, while the fundamentals raise separate questions the market hasn’t fully answered.

]]> BSCNews shared a post on X referencing veteran trader Peter Brandt’s long-term XRP chart. Brandt posted the chart on September 21, stating that XRP could reach $5.40. BSCNews noted the chart suggests XRP could break past the psychological $5 level by next year.

Brandt’s stance on XRP has shifted over time. The $5.40 target reflects where that shift has landed.

Market Conditions Support the Setup

The post arrives as crypto markets recover. Bitcoin recently climbed to an eight-month high near $87,000. XRP followed, rising above $1.50 with more than 8% gains as market sentiment improved. XRP has climbed further since the post and now trades close to $1.60.

BSCNews also noted that network activity on the XRP Ledger has picked up. Transaction volume has risen in line with growing open interest, adding a fundamental dimension to what Brandt identifies through technical analysis alone.

Brandt’s Outlook for XRP

Brandt’s $5.40 target is rooted in nearly a decade of XRP price history. His monthly chart stretches back to 2015, capturing multiple market cycles and giving the analysis a long-term foundation that shorter timeframes cannot provide.

Over those years, XRP’s price carved out a recognizable pattern. The upper price range declined consistently while the lower range pushed higher, creating a symmetrical triangle. That tension released in late 2024 when XRP broke decisively upward, posting gains above 500%.

Following that move, XRP entered a period of consolidation. It has since returned to test that same range. Brandt reads the overall structure as pointing toward $5.40, a level that would take XRP past the psychologically significant $5 mark for the first time.

What’s Next for XRP?

Brandt’s history with XRP makes his current projection notable. He has been openly critical of the asset, indicating his bullish technical read carries more weight than it would coming from a committed advocate.

His technical work on XRP has grown more constructive in the past few years. He previously described XRP’s chart as “the most powerful in all of crypto.” His current $5.40 projection shows strong bullish expectations. With Bitcoin leading a broader market recovery and XRP Ledger activity increasing, the conditions surrounding Brandt’s projection continue to develop in its favor.

]]> Peter Brandt, a veteran trader with decades of experience, has publicly reaffirmed his negative stance on XRP. His remarks came in response to a challenge from a self-acclaimed Wall Street veteran. Brandt was unequivocal in his response, stating, “Are you kidding me? Who the heck even cares about XRP?”

He added that he conducts his trading activity through futures and expressed no desire to hold XRP in any quantity. If he were to receive 500,000 XRP, he said he would convert the entire position into Bitcoin without hesitation.

XRP Falls Below the $1 Mark

XRP is currently trading at approximately $0.9992, placing it below the psychologically significant threshold of $1. The asset stayed above $1 for over 600 days. This marks the first time since November 2024 that the token has fallen to this level.

The decline also means XRP is now valued below RLUSD, Ripple’s own stablecoin that launched in late 2024 and is designed to maintain a stable price. XRP is approximately 72.6% below its all-time high of $3.65, which was recorded on July 17, 2025, according to CoinGecko data.

A Long History of Criticism

Brandt’s dismissal of XRP is not a new development. His criticism of the token and its community spans several years. In June 2020, he publicly described XRP as a manipulated scam, and the following month he drew a comparison between Ripple’s control over XRP and the Federal Reserve’s control over the U.S. dollar, arguing that Ripple functioned as a “bag holder” for the token.

In October 2025, he described XRP holders as the most immature and unprofessional group on X and stated his belief that they deserved to lose their money. In December 2025, he called XRP and silver holders uneducated and biased.

A Brief Period of Optimism

Despite his consistent criticism, Brandt briefly adopted a more favorable view of XRP in late 2024, during a period when the token was experiencing a significant price rally. In November 2024, he acknowledged that XRP had broken above its 2023 high and pointed to a formation he described as a massive coil.

However, this outlook did not persist. By March 2025, Brandt had reversed his position and warned that a bearish head-and-shoulders pattern could push XRP toward $1.07. With the token now trading at or below that level, his technical analysis appears to have been accurate.

The post Legendary Trader Peter Brandt Is Bullish On XRP. Here’s why appeared first on Times Tabloid.

]]> XRP supporters received a notable boost after veteran market analyst Peter Brandt expressed a favorable view of the digital asset in a recent appearance on Crypto Banter.

The comments, highlighted by crypto commentator JackTheRippler on social media, quickly attracted attention due to Brandt’s long-standing reputation in financial markets and his history of providing candid assessments of assets.

In the post, JackTheRippler shared a direct quote from Brandt, writing, “HUGE: Peter Brandt is bullish on $XRP! ‘XRP IS THE BEST.’ He is one of the MOST POPULAR stock market analysts.”

The statement immediately caught the attention of market participants, particularly because Brandt has spent decades analyzing traditional financial markets and is widely followed for his technical market insights.

Brandt Names XRP Among Leading Blockchain Networks

During the Crypto Banter interview, Brandt was asked about XRP and delivered a response that surprised some viewers. He stated, “XRP probably is the best.”

The host quickly sought clarification, asking, “Did you just say XRP is probably the best?” Brandt responded affirmatively, saying, “Yeah.”

He then expanded on his view by discussing which blockchain networks he believes have the strongest chance of becoming widely used for transactions. According to Brandt, if investors were placing bets on which digital assets could achieve transactional relevance, XRP would rank among the leading contenders.

“I mean, right now, if you had a bet on a horse to become transactional, it would probably be XRP, Solana, ETH,” Brandt said.

While mentioning XRP alongside Solana and Ethereum, Brandt also expressed skepticism toward much of the broader cryptocurrency market. He added that he believes many projects will ultimately fail, stating that “most of them are going to end up junk.”

The comments stood out because Brandt’s assessment focused on practical utility rather than short-term price movements. His remarks suggested that he sees XRP as one of the stronger candidates for real-world transactional use as the digital asset industry continues to mature.

Community Members React to the Remarks

The video and accompanying tweet generated reactions from several members of the crypto community, many of whom viewed Brandt’s comments as a significant endorsement.

Lila Hayes expressed enthusiasm about the analyst’s position, writing, “Haha, if Peter Brandt says $XRP is the best, people are definitely going to take notice! I’m really excited to see how it performs.”

Another commenter, Lina, focused on the long-term investment perspective. She stated, “Faith will be tested, and patience will eventually be rewarded. This is one of the most important lessons investing has taught me.”

Mia also emphasized the importance of Brandt’s opinion, noting that the veteran analyst rarely offers praise without careful consideration. “Peter Brandt doesn’t hand out compliments lightly, so his positive view on XRP is definitely worth paying attention to,” she wrote.

XRP Gains Support From a Respected Market Voice

Brandt’s remarks have given XRP supporters another reason to follow developments surrounding the asset. While he acknowledged that only a handful of blockchain networks may achieve lasting relevance, he placed XRP among the projects he believes have the strongest potential to serve transactional purposes in the future.

Given his standing in the investment world, those comments are likely to remain a point of interest for both XRP holders and the broader cryptocurrency community.

]]> Peter Brandt does not comment on XRP often. The veteran trader has had a complicated relationship with the asset and its community. That makes his latest remarks worth paying close attention to.

Crypto pundit BankXRP (@BankXRP) posted a clip from the Crypto Banter podcast, hosted by Ran Neuner. In it, Brandt said, “If you had a bet on a horse to become transactional, it would probably be XRP.” He named XRP first when identifying which cryptocurrencies have the best chance of achieving real-world transactional adoption.

“XRP probably is the best,” he said. He listed Solana and Ethereum alongside it, adding that he thinks “most of them are going to end up junk.” Neuner expressed surprise at the comment, noting he did not expect Brandt to speak positively about XRP.

Brandt’s History With XRP

Brandt was initially skeptical of XRP, but he later changed his position. Rather than welcoming that shift, portions of the XRP community continued to criticize him. He pulled back from posting about the asset as a result. Since then, he has shared the occasional chart but has largely stayed out of XRP commentary.

Despite the friction, his analytical work on XRP has proven accurate. In late 2024, he predicted a significant price move if XRP could break above its 2021 peak of $1.96. XRP crossed that level, and the move that followed peaked at $3.39 in January 2025. His technical call was correct, and his latest comments show his conviction in the asset has not changed.

Brandt’s Opinion on XRP

It is worth being precise about what Brandt stated. While he did not call XRP the definitive winner, he said it probably holds the best position among cryptocurrencies competing for transactional use. He placed it ahead of Solana and Ethereum in that specific context.

His comments were a measured assessment from a veteran trader who has watched this market for years and followed XRP closely enough to make accurate price predictions.

Why Brandt’s View Counts

Brandt carries credibility in technical analysis circles. He is not a crypto native, which is part of what gives his commentary weight. When someone with his background and his history of skepticism toward crypto names XRP as the most likely candidate for transactional adoption, that is a data point worth noting.

BankXRP pointed out that Brandt was calling crypto tops and bottoms before most traders knew what a chart was. He has no allegiance to any asset and no incentive to favor XRP, which adds more weight to his comments on the asset.

]]> Veteran trader Peter Brandt has once again drawn attention within the digital asset space after publicly criticizing investors who support XRP. Brandt, who has traded financial markets for more than fifty years, argued that XRP backers display a level of conviction he associates with what he describes as poorly informed “perma bulls.” 

His remarks quickly reignited a familiar debate between traditional market technicians and XRP supporters who prioritize broader adoption narratives.

Brandt explained that his assessment is rooted in decades of experience across commodities, equities, futures, and cryptocurrencies. According to him, some investor groups remain consistently optimistic regardless of prolonged drawdowns, shifting macroeconomic conditions, or repeated technical breakdowns. 

He grouped XRP supporters alongside long-term silver investors, suggesting that both communities maintain unwavering confidence even during extended periods of underperformance.

Responses From the XRP Community

Unsurprisingly, Brandt’s comments were met with immediate pushback. Zach Rector, a prominent XRP-focused analyst, pointed to what he described as evolving sentiment among former critics. 

Rector highlighted a recent statement from YoungHoon Kim, a well-known Bitcoin maximalist, who announced on December 12 that he had begun accumulating XRP. Kim’s decision drew attention because of his previously firm stance against alternative crypto assets.

Other responses emphasized analytical differences rather than confrontation. Market commentator X Finance Bull acknowledged Brandt’s extensive trading background but questioned whether conventional chart-based models fully reflect XRP’s current positioning. 

He argued that XRP’s valuation may increasingly depend on regulatory clarity, institutional adoption, and its role within cross-border payment infrastructure rather than short-term price formations alone.

Similarly, Altcoin Buzz suggested that many XRP holders are less focused on near-term market fluctuations and more concerned with long-range utility. In that view, Brandt’s critique reflects a divergence in investment philosophy rather than an objective judgment on XRP’s long-term viability.

Historical Context of the Dispute

Brandt’s skepticism toward XRP is not new. Over the years, he has repeatedly questioned the asset’s valuation and has, at times, projected continued weakness against Bitcoin. XRP supporters frequently respond by pointing out instances where such forecasts did not materialize as expected.

That said, Brandt’s outlook has not always been negative. Earlier this year, he identified a bullish technical setup on XRP that ultimately resulted in a price advance before broader market pressure led to a reversal. This mixed history underscores that his criticism is largely tied to investor behavior rather than an outright dismissal of XRP as a tradable asset.

The exchange highlights an ongoing divide within the crypto market. While traders like Brandt rely heavily on historical price action and classical technical analysis, many XRP investors emphasize legal progress, institutional interest, and evolving financial infrastructure. 

This contrast continues to shape debate around XRP’s future and reflects broader tensions between traditional trading frameworks and adoption-driven investment theses.

]]> Peter Brandt, a trader with nearly fifty years of experience across global financial markets, has brought attention to XRP’s long-term price structure, describing it as one of the cleanest examples of a classical market formation.

Known for his adherence to traditional charting principles, Brandt shared a multi-decade view of XRP’s performance, showing what he considers to be a remarkably consistent technical setup extending back to 2014.

A Clear Long-Term Structure

The chart presented by Brandt highlights XRP’s behavior over multiple market cycles, capturing the asset’s early consolidation, its sharp rise during 2017, and the extended compression phase that followed.

The long-term formation is built upon symmetrical patterns and defined trendlines, showing how XRP has respected its technical boundaries over years of market fluctuations.

At the time of Brandt’s post, XRP was trading near $2.63, forming a compact consolidation range just below the $2.83 simple moving average. The structure suggests that XRP has maintained a disciplined chart pattern, one that aligns closely with traditional accumulation and breakout cycles observed in classical technical analysis.

Brandt’s interpretation points to XRP as an example of how an asset can demonstrate clear, sustained structural integrity even in a highly speculative market.

Different Interpretations from Market Observers

Brandt’s post prompted several comments from traders and investors offering their own interpretations of the chart. A user identified as Mr. Skies noted that, based on his experience, assets that accumulate for long periods tend to deliver stronger upward movements once they emerge from extended consolidation.

His statement reflects a view shared by many traditional market analysts who regard prolonged basing structures as potential precursors to major advances.

In contrast, another commenter, known as lostintheoldworld, took a more reserved stance, suggesting that XRP could continue moving sideways for another five or six years. This reflects a cautious interpretation, emphasizing that long-term structures do not necessarily translate to immediate action.

Adding a broader perspective, a user under the name A Concerned Observer discussed the difference between data-driven analysis and emotionally influenced speculation.

While parts of the XRP community tend to rely on sentiment and speculative narratives, he remarked that Peter Brandt often makes objective, evidence-based assessments of both positive and negative conditions in various markets.

He also mentioned that he began buying XRP at $0.40 and appreciates its performance, but encouraged the community to stay grounded amid speculation about riddles and hidden predictions.

Classical Charting and Market Discipline

Brandt’s post reinforces his long-standing commitment to classical charting methods, which rely on the study of recurring price structures rather than market sentiment. The repeated appearance of symmetrical consolidations and clearly defined trend formations in XRP’s history supports the argument that the asset has matured into one of the most technically coherent charts in the crypto market.

The consistency of XRP’s long-term pattern aligns with the type of disciplined behavior often seen in markets that adhere to fundamental technical principles. While Brandt’s analysis does not make any forward price prediction, his focus remains on how XRP’s chart has maintained structural clarity through multiple cycles.
