Earlier this week, blockchain investigator ZachXBT published an explosive 
thread on X alleging that a shadowy figure known online as “John” or “Lick” 
sat at the center of a web of cryptocurrency thefts that stretched from 
private wallets to U.S. government seizure addresses. The revelations unfolded 
like a digital whodunit. According to ZachXBT’s onchain analysis, […]

Onchain Analyst Claims $90M in Crypto Was Drained From US Seizure Wallets

Technical analysis of XRP&#8217;s price action on the 3-week candlestick timeframe 
chart shows that the cryptocurrency is about to play out a road to the double- 
digit threshold based on its long-term structure. The analysis, which was 
shared on the social media platform X alongside a multiyear chart, points to 
XRP trading in what is labeled Phase 4. At the center of this setup is a clear 
technical target of a break above the previous all-time high and a run to at 
least $21.5 Related Reading: XRP Showing Strength, Analyst Points To $4 
Potential XRP Price Action In Phases Technical analysis of XRP price action 
shows that the cryptocurrency has been trading in a series of four phases for 
more than a decade. One full sequence of four phases unfolded between mid-2013 
and mid-2017 as the foundation for XRP’s first rally to price peaks. Since 
then, a second set of four phases has been developing and following a similar 
pattern. XRP transitioned into a new phase 1 and phase 2 sequence that led to 
a 2018 peak for phase 1 and then a pullback for phase 2 between 2018 and 2020. 
This was followed by an unusually long p3 that stretched from 2019 to 
mid-2024, visible on the chart as a broad, multi-year consolidation with 
converging trendlines of lower highs and higher lows. During this time, XRP&#8217;s 
price action was trapped inside the compression structure, just like the 
behavior seen during phase 3 of the first cycle. XRP Price Chart. Source: 
@amonyx On X Phase 4 Returns: XRP To Double Digits According to the technical 
analysis, phase 4 began in 2025, when XRP finally broke above the compression 
range in mid-2024. This breakout was the same structural transition seen in 
mid-2017, when XRP exited consolidation and entered expansion. Phase 4 has 
already been in progress for several months and includes the period when XRP 
rallied to new all-time highs in mid-2025, eventually topping out at $3.65 in 
July. Since that peak, however, XRP’s price action has been playing out a 
corrective downward trend and is down by roughly 48% at the time of writing. 
Despite the ongoing correction, the projection is that XRP is still in phase 4 
and is going to break into new all-time highs soon. This shows that phase 4 
could unfold over an extended period and not with a single impulse move. The 
current all-time high of $3.65 is the first major technical hurdle, and a 
break above it will serve as confirmation that XRP is back into price 
discovery. Related Reading: Gold Becomes The Whale Safe Haven As Bitcoin Takes 
A Back Seat Based on this technical analysis, past expansion ratios from the 
previous cycle are applied and a 6.618 Fibonacci extension is measured from 
the phase 3 support low. This points to a projected price level near $21.5. At 
the time of writing, XRP is trading at $1.89, meaning a move to that level 
would represent an increase of roughly 1,040% from current prices. Featured
