XRP to $27? Analyst Explains What to Do in Current “Boredom Phase”

Crypto analyst EGRAG CRYPTO (@egragcrypto) recently shared insights into XRP’s current market phase, emphasizing the psychological challenges traders face during consolidation.

In a post on X, he discussed the “Boredom Phase,” a period where the asset moves sideways, testing investor patience. According to him, this phase is often when emotions take over, leading to premature selling or panic-driven decisions.

EGRAG CRYPTO previously predicted that the digital asset could reach $27, but would see a downturn by mid-March, with a significant price drop expected around March 10. His forecast materialized as XRP briefly lost the crucial $2 level, falling to approximately $1.90 before rebounding.

The price remained struggling until the dismissal of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) appeal against Ripple was announced, at which point XRP surged to $2.50.

Psychological Challenges of Market Consolidation

EGRAG CRYPTO highlights that during market stagnation, traders often feel frustration due to the lack of immediate price movement. He described this as a psychological tactic that can make investors question their strategies. “Why hasn’t XRP mooned?” he noted, quoting common messages he receives from the community.

He argues that this period is designed to test patience, causing traders to overthink their positions and question predictions like his $27 target. Questions such as “What if XRP drops to $1.60? What if it hits $1.30?” can lead to impulsive decisions that might not align with a long-term investment strategy.

According to his analysis, the best approach during the Boredom Phase is often to remain patient and avoid unnecessary trading. He advises investors to sit back and accumulate as many tokens as possible, echoing the “buy XRP and wait” strategy shared by many experts and reinforcing that holding during uncertain times can be more beneficial than attempting to time the market.

The Influence of Large Investors

EGRAG CRYPTO also addressed the influence of sharks and whales. He explained that in the current phase, retail investors are surrounded by larger players who can manipulate market movements.

Sharks, as he describes, “can eat you alive,” while whales “can swallow you in one quick move,” illustrating how major investors take advantage of weaker hands by inducing volatility and forcing inexperienced traders to exit at a loss.

The XRP ecosystem has seen notable whale activity recently, and weak investors may have sold their tokens due to uncertainty about the digital asset’s next steps. However, EGRAG CRYPTO is confident that the $27 target is still in play and revealed that he will share a detailed plan with investors.
