Five months later, the $XRP/$BTC pair recorded the projected upsurge, with $XRP soaring from $0.5 in November 2024 to a peak of $3.4 in January 2025. This represented an impressive 6.8x increase, far outpacing the 3.3x projected by Javon Marks in June.
Marks Projects Next Upsurge
Now that $XRP is again facing struggles around the $2.3 to $2.5 region on the back of broader market uncertainty, Marks has presented another bullish prediction at a time when most analysts are expecting bearish price action, and market sentiments have dropped.
In a recent disclosure on X, Marks identified a bullish price action on the $XRP/$BTC 2-week chart. Notably, the November 2024 rally allowed $XRP to break above a descending trendline against $BTC that had held strong for seven years.
However, after the breakout, $XRP met resistance at 0.00003415 $BTC and has since pulled back and consolidated around a range of 0.000019 and 0.000033 $BTC, still holding well above the 7-year descending trendline. Interestingly, the Oct. 10 market crash pushed the $XRP/$BTC pair to retest the trendline 0.00000720 before a quick recovery.

Following this retest, Marks believes another upsurge is in the works. In his latest prediction, the analyst suggested that this time, $XRP could outpace Bitcoin by a massive 600%, possibly pushing the $XRP/$BTC pair to 0.00015977, a seven-year peak.
Notably, if the pair does hit the 0.00015977 high, this would be extremely bullish for the $XRP price. Specifically, at the current Bitcoin price of $107,200, an $XRP/$BTC value of 0.00015977 would translate to a price of $17.1 for $XRP. However, Bitcoin is likely to increase from this level, suggesting that $XRP price may rise beyond the $17 mark.
