XRP ‘Looks Good’ for a $4 Price Run: Details

XRP is showing early signs of strength after months of sideways movement, with traders pointing to a familiar price structure that previously led to a major upside breakout.

At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $1.94, up 2.13% over the past day, though it remains down 7.2% over the past week.

  • XRP shows strength as traders spot a familiar setup that has led to a major breakout before.
  • Technical charts suggest XRP is nearing the end of a long consolidation phase.
  • A breakout could send XRP toward $4, requiring just over a 100% price surge.
  • Analysts say extended consolidation supports higher targets, with some calling for $6.

XRP “Looks Good”

Widely followed trader DonWedge shared a 12-hour XRP chart on TradingView, summarizing his outlook with a simple message: “XRP looks good.”

The chart highlights a repeating technical pattern that has appeared twice over the past year. In both cases, XRP formed a descending channel following a strong rally.

Notably, the first instance was XRP’s move from $0.49 to $3.34 between November 2024 and January 2025. The chart illustrates how XRP rallied sharply, delivering 6x gains, before entering a controlled downward channel that saw it dip below $1.80 over a six-month period.

Once selling pressure faded, XRP broke out decisively in July, eventually reaching $3.66.

Current Structure Mirrors Past Setup

The current structure now closely mirrors that earlier setup. Specifically, XRP has once again spent six months moving within a falling channel, with the price now pressing near the lower boundary as volatility compresses. As a result, the market is increasingly eager for a resumption of a new uptrend.

$4 Is a Possible Next Target

DonWedge’s projection outlines a breakout scenario that could send XRP toward the $4 level. This zone aligns with a measured move similar to the previous post-consolidation breakout.

While the chart does not suggest an immediate move, it implies that once XRP exits the channel, the next leg higher could be swift rather than gradual. Notably, from current levels, XRP would need just over a 106% price surge to reach $4, which would mark a new all-time high.

DonWedge’s “looks good” comment reflects rising confidence among technical traders that XRP’s long consolidation phase may be nearing its end. While a move to $4 is not guaranteed, the price action suggests XRP is building strength.

Calls for $6 XRP

In a separate analysis this week, Elliott Wave analyst XForceGlobal stated that XRP is in an accumulation phase rather than a bearish zone and could reach a $6 price target.

He noted that XRP has been consolidating for over a year within its current pattern and for more than eight years in a broader cycle. Such extended consolidation phases often precede strong breakouts.

According to XForceGlobal, XRP’s long-term triangle breakout remains valid, and recent pullbacks are simply normal market noise. Despite short-term volatility, he considers $6 a conservative target, adding that long, quiet periods that frustrate some holders are a natural part of the process.

Inside Upexi’s SOL play: staking yield and locked token deals

The post Inside Upexi’s SOL play: staking yield and locked token deals appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Upexi is the largest public company holding Solana tokens and uses a SOL strategy to build its holdings and generate additional revenue through staking. In an interview with crypto.news, Upexi CEO Allan Marshall explains why the company executed a large equity private placement to build a crypto treasury, citing MicroStrategy’s playbook and a more accommodating U.S. policy backdrop. Summary Upexi is the largest public holder of Solana, using equity raises to build a SOL treasury and earn staking yield. Upexi CEO Allan Marshall spoke with crypto.news in an interview. Corporate strategy focuses on accretive issuances, staking, and discounted locked SOL purchases, not venture investing. Upexi markets itself as a “new institutional gateway to Solana’s (SOL) speed, scale, and rapidly growing ecosystem.” But it isn’t alone, as it joins a handful of rival companies also building Solana treasuries, while dozens of other public entities are focusing on other coins. Speaking to crypto.news, Marshall discusses strategy and market perception. He notes that Upexi is focused on accretive capital raises, staking, and discounted, locked SOL purchases rather than venture investing. He also discusses how the company measures progress through an “adjusted SOL per share” metric designed to remove timing and leverage effects. We also discuss the company’s risk management strategies, which include a buy-and-hold approach, no hedging, disciplined use of leverage, and custody with qualified providers. The entire interview transcript is below: crypto.news: Upexi is now the largest corporate holder of Solana with over 2 million SOL in treasury. Why did you make such a dramatic shift now? Was there something specific that happened in the past few months that gave you the confidence to commit so heavily to a crypto treasury at this time? Allan Marshall: Upexi did the first large-scale equity private placement to create an altcoin treasury, and there were…
