XRP could be approaching another major stage in its long-term price structure, according to crypto enthusiast Cleo Schmidt, who has compared the cryptocurrency’s current chart with the trendline it followed before its 2017 rally.
Her analysis points to a series of retests that she believes closely resembles the earlier market structure and could precede another significant expansion.
In her tweet, Schmidt said XRP is “replicating the exact same trendline seen in 2017” and claimed that “history is repeating itself.” She linked the current setup to the period before XRP’s historic 2017 advance, which she described as an explosive 70,000% rally.
The attached chart compares XRP’s long-term price action across several years. It highlights a rising trendline connecting multiple major lows and labels successive interactions with that line as “Creation,” “1st Retest,” “2nd Retest,” and “3rd Retest.” The chart shows the current market has reached another important test of the same ascending support structure.
$XRP is replicating the exact same trendline seen in 2017.
History is repeating itself.
Just like before the explosive 70,000% rally.
The path to the next bull run:
Scenario 1: (August–September)
$1.10 → $0.97 → $1.80Scenario 2: (November–December)
$1.80 → $2.70 → $3.20… pic.twitter.com/ySktNbIN4V— Cleo Schmidt (@Cleo_995yu) August 17, 2026
Three-Stage Price Scenario
Schmidt’s forecast divides the potential move into three stages, with each stage assigning a series of price levels to XRP. For the first scenario, covering August through September, she expects XRP to move from approximately $1.10 to $0.97 before advancing toward $1.80.
The second scenario covers November through December. Schmidt projects XRP moving from $1.80 toward $2.70 and then reaching $3.20. Her third scenario extends into January and February, where she expects the asset to move from $3.20 to $6.50 before potentially reaching $13.00.
These levels represent Schmidt’s projected path rather than established future prices. Her analysis depends on XRP continuing to respect the long-term ascending trendline shown in the chart.

Third Retest Seen as Key
A central part of Schmidt’s analysis is the third retest. She stated that “once the third retest holds firm, the expansion phase begins.” The chart marks the current area as the third retest, with the projected price movement turning sharply higher after the trendline interaction.
The visual comparison places earlier XRP price cycles alongside the current structure to support Schmidt’s historical comparison. The chart also shows a projected upward movement following the latest retest, with prices extending substantially above the current level.
