Key Insights:
- XRP needs to clear $1.30-$1.60 and $1.96 before a stronger move toward $3 can take shape.
- XRP has lagged Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana despite continued ETF demand.
- XRP Ledger RWA value has grown sharply, with $4.06 billion now spread across 373 assets.
XRP price is at a point where a move above key levels could change the market view, according to a recent analysis by EGRAG CRYPTO. The setup points to $3 as a possible target if XRP can clear several resistance levels and confirm a new Wave 3 move. That makes the next moves important for the setup.
XRP Price Bullish Thesis Takes Shape
EGRAG CRYPTO highlighted several levels that could decide whether the XRP price can move into a stronger phase. The first support area sits between $1.00 and $0.95, while $0.75 is another level. Deeper support runs from $0.60 to $0.52.
On the upside, the analysis points to $1.30 to $1.60 as an important area. A sustained close above that range would strengthen the case. The next level is $1.96, followed by $3.00 to $3.60.
However, the clearest confirmation would come if XRP breaks above the high of Wave 1. EGRAG CRYPTO said this would confirm that Wave 3 is underway. That matters because the Wave 3 setup is the reason behind the bullish projection.
For now, the levels show both sides of the market. The lower zones mark support, while the higher levels show where a stronger move must prove itself. Therefore, a run toward $3 depends on XRP first clearing the levels that stand between its current position and that target.
XRP Stands Apart Despite ETF Demand
XRP is also showing a different price pattern from some of the other large cryptocurrencies. That point was raised by That Martini Guy, who noted that Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana were bouncing while XRP fell 5% over the previous week.
The move is notable because XRP continued to see demand through exchange-traded funds. Strong demand through regulated products could be expected to support price. Yet XRP has not followed that pattern.
That gap raises a simple question about how much ETF demand is translating into actual buying pressure for XRP. ETF inflows alone do not guarantee a price rise, especially when other market factors are pushing against the asset.
