One full sequence of four phases unfolded between mid-2013 and mid-2017 as the foundation for XRP\u2019s first rally to price peaks. Since then, a second set of four phases has been developing and following a similar pattern.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>XRP transitioned into a new phase 1 and phase 2 sequence that led to a 2018 peak for phase 1 and then a pullback for phase 2 between 2018 and 2020. This was followed by an unusually long p3 that stretched from 2019 to mid-2024, visible on the chart as a broad, multi-year consolidation with converging trendlines of lower highs and higher lows. During this time, XRP\u2019s price action was trapped inside the compression structure, just like the behavior seen during phase 3 of the first cycle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/a_be92eb.png?resize=1024%2C598\" alt width=\"1024\" height=\"598\"><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/amonyx\/status\/2015109800309272888?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span>XRP Price Chart. Source: @amonyx On X<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"ftoc-heading-2\"><b>Phase 4 Returns: XRP To Double Digits<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span>According to the technical analysis, phase 4 began in 2025, when XRP finally broke above the compression range in mid-2024. This breakout was the same structural transition seen in mid-2017, when XRP exited consolidation and entered expansion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Phase 4 has already been in progress for several months and includes the period when XRP <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/es\/altcoin\/xrp-hits-new-ath-but-3-12-retest-still-in-play\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span>rallied to new all-time highs in <\/span><\/a><span>mid-2025, eventually topping out at $3.65 in July. Since that peak, however, XRP\u2019s price action has been playing out <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/xrp-news\/xrp-distribution-phase-continues-but-funding-rates-suggest-shorts-are-overextended\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span>a corrective downward trend<\/span><\/a><span> and is down by roughly 48% at the time of writing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Despite the ongoing correction, the projection is that XRP is still in phase 4 and is going to break<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/xrp-obliteration-is-not-a-matter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span> into new all-time highs soon<\/span><\/a><span>. This shows that phase 4 could <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/xrp-recovery-is-possible\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span>unfold over an extended period<\/span><\/a><span> and not with a single impulse move. The current all-time high of $3.65 is the first major technical hurdle, and a break above it will serve as confirmation that XRP is back into price discovery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Based on this technical analysis, past expansion ratios from the previous cycle are applied and a 6.618 Fibonacci extension is measured from the phase 3 support low. This points to a projected price level near $21.5. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $1.89, meaning a move to that level would represent an increase of roughly 1,040% from current prices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Featured image from Pexels, chart from TradingView<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technical analysis of XRP\u2019s price action on the 3-week candlestick timeframe chart shows that the cryptocurrency is about to play [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":60445,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[220],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-60444","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tien-dien-tu"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60444","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=60444"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60444\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/60445"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=60444"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=60444"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=60444"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
