XRP has had a tough few months. After reaching a high of around $3.66 in mid-2025, the token has since fallen sharply and has recently been hovering around $1.30. No matter how you look at it, it’s a steep decline.

But one widely followed crypto commentator isn’t backing down from long-term bold investments, basing his arguments solely on what he sees on the charts.
The chart is heading higher
The analyst, known as CryptoBull on X, posted a monthly chart of XRP/USD showing what he described as a multi-year consolidation pattern followed by a new breakout attempt towards 2026.
His conclusion was straightforward: a move to $50 appears to be a “natural and normal” extension of the current structure. “Regardless of your feelings, the chart says $50,” he wrote.
Based on reports, CryptoBull has been building this case for some time and the $50 figure was not plucked out of thin air. This falls perfectly within the $28 to $70 target range he previously set using higher time frame analysis.

An increase to $50 at current prices would represent a profit of over 3,500%. That’s a big number. However, CryptoBull has consistently resisted the wilder numbers circulating in XRP circles.
He has publicly rejected price targets of $1,000 and $10,000, saying they are not supported by reliable chart structure. By his own standards, $50 is a reasonable amount.
For context, if the price of XRP is $28, the total market value would be close to $1.7 trillion. At $70, that number is over $4 trillion. Radical? yes. But it’s far more grounded than the hundreds of trillions suggested by the outlandish targets floating around online.
History as a reference point
CryptoBull also points to XRP’s own track record to support his claim. He reportedly reminded his followers that XRP once soared 3,500%, going from $0.11 to $3.65 in one market cycle.

Using this as a baseline, he suggested that the cycle could see a 2,000% expansion from current levels towards $28. The rise to $50 actually exceeds that, approaching the 3,500% range. This roughly matches the magnitude of previous historic increases.
Moving targets for measurements above $15 of $XRP remain unchanged.

Other analysts have expressed similar constructive views. Javon Marks cited the same late 2024 breakout structure that Cryptobull is referring to and insisted that the observed price target above $15 remains unchanged.
South Korea’s Elliott Wave analyst XForceGlobal opined similarly, saying that XRP’s chart looks solid after the token revisited its previous all-time high zone and fully retreated towards $1 territory, and said he believes a reset could come before a strong rally.
