XRP to $45? Analyst Spots Déjà Vu Between 2017, 2021, and Today’s Ripple Price Action

Today, the XRP news is not exciting as the coin continues its consolidation phase and the general market slows, too. However, we also have some bold long-term XRP price predictions. Based on these projections, a strong XRP price surge is on the way. The crypto analyst has presented these predictions by cross-examining the current price movements and the old data. 

Is XRP Set for Another Massive Breakout Like 2021?

The well-known crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has recently published an XRP price prediction, projecting a rally in the short term. Based on this prediction, we will see a repeat of the price breakout which happened in the last market cycle. Such a breakout has been repeated in the Ripple price as we analyse the period from 2013 to 2025. This pattern is a prolonged bearish market and then a significant breakout. For example, one instance of such a pattern is the 2,700% jump in value recorded in 2017. Moreover, we also have the 2021 1,000% price surge, which turned many heads at the time.

As Chart 1 shows, the 21-week Exponential Moving Average and the 33-week Simple Moving Average play a crucial role in this projection. These MAs show a bottom in the price as they cross in the bearish trends and curve in the bullish trends. Usually, a bullish movement starts when the price goes over the 21 EMA and 33 MA. After this, in a 770 to 777-day period, we usually see a bullish cross, affirming an uptrend. Egrag Crypto also commented, “I’m not improvising here; I’m relying on historical data to present future predictions. Will it rhyme exactly? No, because if it were that easy, everyone would be a multimillionaire!”

Could XRP Really Surge to $45? Egrag Crypto Thinks So!

As Egrag crypto puts it, we have already seen some of the patterns in 2017 and 2021 be repeated. If another blow-off top scenario happens, Egrag Crypto believes we will see an XRP price surge to two predetermined targets. Based on his analysis, XRP could end up at $45, recording a staggering 2,700% surge. Additionally, his XRP price prediction also includes a more realistic target of $20, showing 1,000% growth. He also acknowledges that external factors affect the price action but believes XRP could repeat 2017 or 2021 patterns.

Can the 21 EMA Predict Major XRP Price Movements?

Egrag Crypro also highlights the role of 21 EMA in the 2017 cycle, where it supported the price, sending it soaring. Additionally, in 2021, we also saw that it was confirmed as a price line went above these MAs. As Egreg crypto also states, these MA indicators are lagging behind the current data; however, they still show the overall bullish or bearish condition. He also said, “market makers use the same moving averages to see where support and resistance are and act against us. So I am using different moving averages—one is fast (exponential) and one is simple—to understand price action better.” 

How Realistic Is the $27 XRP Price Target in Today’s Market?

Egrag Crypto has also been saying for a while now that he believes the Ripple price will hit the $27 mark. However, as he admits, the market is dominated by human emotions, and this can not be predicted. “You cannot control it, stop it, or slow it, or even slightly alter it…you have to just react. Make a lot of money if you get it right, or you’ll be left by the side of the road.” The recent XRP news also supports XRP growth and its projected bullish future.
