Ripple (XRP) top price predictions after the recent market crash

TL;DR

Analysts project that XRP could reach new highs, with forecasts ranging from $4 to $9. However, one market watcher envisioned a double-digit drop if the price does not close above $4 on March 10. New ATH soon?

Ripple’s XRP started 2025 off on the right foot, with its price rising to nearly $2.50 on January 4th. However, the decline seen in the broader crypto market in recent days slowed the recovery. XRP briefly fell to $2.23 on January 7th and is currently worth approximately $2.27 (according to CoinGecko data).

However, many analysts who regularly watch the token’s price performance believe that another resurgence could be on the cards. For example, user X with nearly 400,000 followers, Crypto Bitlord, urged people to invest in XRP, describing it as “the safest asset in all of crypto.”

The Great Matsby also weighed in, expecting the valuation to reach a new all-time high of $9 in the near future. “XRP is so bullish that it is one of the last coins yet to touch the daily Ichimoku cloud,” they said.

The daily Ichimoku cloud is a technical analysis tool that helps traders identify trends, potential reversals, and support/resistance levels. It combines various components including ongoing market trends, momentum and future projections.

Other recent industry participants include CRYPTOWZRD and veteran trader Peter Brandt. The former believes that XRP’s bomb to $4 is “inevitable,” while the latter suggested that the asset’s market cap could exceed $500 billion.

Meanwhile, the XRP army recently went public after the meeting between the newly elected President of the United States, Donald Trump, and two heads of Ripple, Brad Garlinghouse and Stuart Alderoty.

What the men discussed over dinner remains unknown, but the crypto community was quick to offer some interesting suggestions. Some of the speculations include the potential growth of Ripple and the further development of the local cryptocurrency sector.

Something for the bears

While the general sentiment surrounding XRP is quite bullish, there are some market watchers who predict a potential crash. A person describing this thesis is user X EGRAG CRYPTO.

The analyst (who tends to make bullish price predictions for Ripple’s native token) recently opined that it should “finish above $4 with strong confirmation on the weekly chart.” This must happen before March 10, or else the token could collapse by more than 70%.

User X based his forecast on the lunar eclipse, which is scheduled for this period. EGRAG CRYPTO stated that the phenomenon has been followed by a crypto market correction in the past. It is worth noting that there is no economic basis to suggest that the upcoming lunar eclipse could cause fluctuations in the sector.
