According to X user Hamza, the asset\u2019s recent decline has resulted in a breakdown from a critical symmetrical triangle that could lead to an additional pullback.<\/p>\n<p>The analyst <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ElliottWavesHub\/status\/2082510605089714491\" target=\"_blank\">claimed<\/a> that retail is still \u201cbagholding on hope\u201d while smart money had left and set a target of $0.836. At the same time, they said a potential rise to $1.16 would invalidate the bearish setup.<\/p>\n<p>FOUR | Crypto Spaces also <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/X_Four_iv\/status\/2082101281846407669\" target=\"_blank\">issued<\/a> a pessimistic forecast, envisioning a plunge to $1.02, while Carl Hawley <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CarlHaawle\/status\/2082345917395661128\" target=\"_blank\">opined<\/a> that XRP has shown \u201cextreme weakness\u201d on higher timeframes, making the asset the most oversold since COVID times. Usually, entering such a territory is a precursor to a resurgence, yet the analyst couldn\u2019t predict the exact direction of the upcoming move, saying:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cCapitulation or opportunity? The next few weeks could be decisive.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The rising number of XRP tokens stored on Binance suggests the bearish perspective is more likely. The figure has reached a nearly three-week high of approximately 2.62 billion coins, signaling that some investors have abandoned self-custody methods and moved their holdings to the exchange. This, in turn, increases the immediate selling pressure.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1444326\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1444326\" style=\"width: 1451px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/XRP-Reserves-on-Binance.png\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1444326\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">XRP Binance Reserves, Source: CryptoQuant<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"the-bullish-scenarios\">The Bullish Scenarios<\/h2>\n<p>It is important to note that the majority of people making XRP predictions remain optimistic. X user MARMOT recently <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/search?q=%24XRP&amp;src=typed_query\" target=\"_blank\">claimed<\/a> that the asset is repeating the exact pattern from 2017, which led to a 60,000% explosion. They believe the path to the next bull run involves three different phases, envisioning an eventual ascent to a new all-time high of $13.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"you-may-also-like\" class=\"heading-4\">You may also like:<\/h3>\n<p>Celal Kucuker also chipped in, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CelalKucuker\/status\/2082483376041173296\" target=\"_blank\">seeing<\/a> compression, exhausted sellers, and asymmetric risk. In their view, if XRP breaks above its current structure, those who called for $0.50 may suddenly start calling for $10.<\/p>\n<p>The most bullish forecast came from xrpl_Adam, who <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ripples-xrp-could-hit-100t-if-institutions-use-it-as-collateral-analyst\/\">suggested<\/a> that Ripple\u2019s native token may become a $100 trillion asset in the future. As of now, it\u2019s hard to imagine an explosion of that magnitude, given that the entire market capitalization of the crypto sector is around $2.3 trillion.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-12\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div><center><span style=\"font-size:11px; color: gray;\">SPECIAL OFFER (Exclusive)<\/span><\/center><br \/>\n<b>LIMITED OFFER for CryptoPotato readers at Bybit: <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pl\/bybit24\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" onclick=\"if(typeof gtag === 'function') { gtag('event', 'footer_ad_ta_click', {'page_path': window.location.pathname, 'exchange': 'bybit', 'link_type': 'main'}); }\">Use this link<\/a> to register and open a $500 FREE position on any coin!<\/b><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/xrp-warning-why-ripples-price-could-plunge-23\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; A potential ascent to $1.16 would invalidate the bearish outlook.
