Crypto analyst Javon Marks remains bullish on XRP even after its recent price 
crash below $1.3. The analyst argued that the cryptocurrency’s long-term 
technical picture points to a potential surge well into the double-digit 
territory. According to Marks, XRP’s bullish roadmap toward $15 remains 
unchanged, underscoring his strong confidence in the altcoin’s ability to push 
past prevailing bearish trends. Related Reading: Bitcoin Sell-Off Slows Down, 
But The Road To Recovery Is Long — Analyst XRP Double-Digit Price Target 
Remains Unchanged Sharing his outlook on X, Marks told followers that XRP’s 
measured move target about $15 remains firmly intact, dismissing recent price 
weakness as a temporary setback within a much larger bullish structure. His 
accompanying chart spans over a decade of XRP’s price history, stretching from 
roughly 2014 through a projected timeline extending well into 2026. Marks’ 
analysis highlights a recurring pattern that has played out across multiple 
market cycles. In each instance, XRP formed a descending triangle or wedge 
formation and then experienced a downturn below a key support level, which the 
analyst labeled a “false breakdown.” Following this, XRP launched into a 
powerful parabolic rally to new all-time highs. This sequence of wedge 
formation and a subsequent false breakdown occurred notably in 2017 and again 
heading into 2021, each time producing extraordinary gains in the price of 
XRP. According to Marks, the breakout that materialized in late 2024, when XRP 
rose from around $0.55 to over $2.2, mirrors the jump in 2017 that preceded a 
final bull rally to $3.84 in 2018. He argues that this development hints at 
another tenfold move in this cycle, representing a more than 900% increase in 
the XRP price. The chart also projects a peak target somewhere between $15 and 
$18, with a vertical measurement bar illustrating a potential surge of 
approximately 2,872.31%. Analysts Stay Bullish On XRP As Whales Go Long 
Analysts&#8217; confidence in the XRP price remains strong despite broader market 
volatility and recent price dips. Notably, market expert Steph is Crypto has 
identified a multi-year Cup and Handle pattern on its chart that could trigger 
a historic surge in XRP’s price. According to the analyst, the upward 
trendline above the pattern points to a projected rally to the $4 level. This 
price zone is highlighted as a key resistance area, and a decisive move above 
it could push XRP to its next target above $30. Interestingly, Steph’s bullish 
outlook for XRP comes as whales continue to go long on the cryptocurrency. 
Recent reports from market expert Xaif Crypto reveal that a whale opened a 
massive $3.34 million long position on XRP. He noted that the whale held 
$193,000 equity with a 104% margin, essentially going all in with no safety 
net. Related Reading: Crypto Mixing Is Back — And Criminals Adapted Faster

XRP’s bullish potential. However, Xaif Crypto has cautioned that if XRP drops 
to $1.37, then the whale could lose everything. It’s important to note that 
the XRP price has already declined below $1.3 and now sits near $1.28 at the 
time of writing. Featured image from Vecteezy, chart from TradingView
