Crypto analyst ChartNerd has predicted that the XRP price is about to stage the breakout of the decade. This came as he alluded to a bullish pattern that has been forming since 2024, and is now seeing a critical retest.
XRP Price Sees ‘Breakout Of The Decade’
In an X post, ChartNerd stated that the XRP price has secretly handed the market the breakout of the decade. He revealed that a multi-year symmetrical triangle, which finally broke in Q4 2024, leading to a new all-time high (ATH) in July 2025, is now searching for a critical retest. The analyst added that this is the exact setup as the similar triangle in earlier cycles between 2013 and 2017 before a vicious uptick.
The analyst noted that the current XRP price structure is similar, with triangle compression, a clean break, a textbook retest, and then ignition. He added that if this retest is successful, XRP is not looking back for another three to four years. ChartNerd added that there is a major opportunity at hand, with the altcoin eyeing new highs.
The analyst’s accompanying chart showed that the XRP price could rally to a new ATH of $21 on this breakout. However, the altcoin could retest below the psychological $1 level before embarking on a parabolic rally to the upside. It is worth noting that the retest could happen as soon as this month amid macro pressures, including the U.S.-Iran war.
ChartNerd had earlier mentioned that this month is shaping up to be a defining one for the XRP price. He noted that the altcoin is navigating a high-volatility zone at the moment, which is worth paying close attention to.
A New ATH Is In Sight
In an X post, crypto analyst Dark Defender said that a new all-time high is in sight for the XRP price. This came as he noted that the altcoin broke a key resistance on the 3-day chart after respecting the structure and supporting the $1.31 white Fibonacci line multiple times. The analyst also revealed that XRP has completed the C Wave, broken above the resistance-support triangle, and recorded an RSI bullish cross, which is why he is confident that a new ATH is in sight.
However, despite these positive outlooks for the XRP price, crypto analyst CasiTrades has warned that the XRP price could still drop to as low as $0.85 on a 5-wave move to the downside. In the short term, she predicts that the altcoin could drop to $1.09 after its relief bounce following the U.S.-Iran ceasefire.
At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.35, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
