The crypto market is on the move on Tuesday morning, with bitcoin climbing to a multi-week peak of over $66,000. Many altcoins have followed suit, including the popular cross-border token.

Analysts who have often weighed in on its performance were quick to highlight the returning hope, some of which emerged with rather incredible price predictions.

XRP Is Breaking Out?

CW was among the first to give some hope to the bulls, indicating that XRP is “breaking through the sell walls.” According to their chart, such obstacles remain at $1.13-$1.14, which is currently being tested, followed by another one at around $1.16, before the last major one at $1.20.

Ali Martinez also outlined the significance of the $1.13 resistance. It has capped the token’s breakout attempts in the past month or so, and the analyst predicted that a decisive surge above it “could confirm the bullish breakout and open the door for further upside.” His chart highlighted potential targets of up to $1.30 in the short-term.

As usual, EGRAG CRYPTO was the most optimistic of the bunch, and continues to focus on the asset’s long-term potential. According to his triple-bottom roadmap, his targets were quite mind-blowing at $9, $15, and $31. Naturally, all of these sound quite far-fetched at the moment despite the minor uptick from under $1.10 to $1.13.

Nevertheless, EGRAG noted that this chart “presents a three-bottom sequence of rising cyclical lows, supported by XRP’s long-term exponential moving averages.” The current bottom is being formed, with “strong confluence around $0.90-$1.00,” he added.

Long-Term Correction Still Not Over

ChartNerd, on the other hand, warned that XRP is yet to break out of its downtrend that began just over a year ago when it charted its all-time high of $3.65.

“We remain inside the wedge structure and below the current descending resistance.”

Ripple’s token would need to break past $1.20 to show some strength and potential to turn the tables, according to ChartNerd’s analysis.

Bird, though, believes XRP has already made the first major step to get out of the year-long compression. The analyst said “it’s time” for an “explosive candle” that could arrive at any moment and propel the asset toward new local peaks.
