XRP might be trading well below the $2 price level, but this hasn’t stopped outrageous predictions from its supporters. One of such recent predictions came from a crypto analyst who projected a surge to double-digit territory in the coming months. The prediction comes as XRP is trading around the mid-$1 range, with weeks of tight consolidation and a lack of clear bullish momentum across the entire crypto market. However, the prediction is that XRP has ended its wave 2 accumulation and will rally to $13 within the next three months. CryptoBull Says XRP Is Repeating The 2017 Bull Run Structure The 2017 to 2018 bull run is one of the most powerful rallies in XRP’s price history. During that cycle, the cryptocurrency’s price climbed from well below one cent to over $3 in a matter of months in a near-vertical move with few corrections.

According to his analysis, the current structure resembles an Elliott Wave formation similar to the one that preceded XRP’s explosive rally nearly a decade ago. In the chart he shared, the 2017 bull run is mapped out with a clear five-wave impulsive move that ended with a massive rally. He overlaid a projected 2026 scenario on the right side of the chart, with the current price action labeled as the completion of Wave 2. If that interpretation is true, that means Wave 3 is now about to be underway. Wave 2 has been playing out since XRP reached a new peak price of $3.65 in July 2025. The recent sideways price action between $1.4 and $1.5 can be looked at as an accumulation period before expansion. Weekly Consolidation Range Keeps XRP At Important Level XRP might still be subject to bullish outlooks, but the current price action is far from outright bullishness. Crypto analyst Guy on the Earth offered a more measured perspective with a focus on XRP’s weekly chart structure. Related Reading: Analyst Reveals What XRP Price Will Move Toward In Bid For $4 As noted by the analyst, XRP recently finished the week inside a consolidation range formed between its 2021 all-time high and a lower high created during the rebound. The weekly chart he shared shows XRP trading within a defined horizontal range, with the price in a clear downtrend since July 2025. The most important level highlighted is $1.41. According to his analysis, a weekly close below that zone would open the door for downside targets under $1, with the possibility of the XRP price falling to as low as $0.60. Although momentum changed slightly upward in recent trading sessions, there is still a need for confirmation. In that case, the weekly close above $1.41 is the decisive factor in determining whether XRP maintains its structure or enters a deeper correction phase. The XRP/BTC pair is also bouncing from recent lows, and this is a sign that relative strength may be returning. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com
