Several months ago, many traders thought $XRP would never reach $1 again, but the price has now shifted significantly.
Key Points
- Months ago, traders said $XRP would never hit $1; now analysts see a potential $10 target.
- $XRP broke $1 in Nov 2024, reached $3 by Jan 2025, but recent dips test investor confidence.
- Analysts suggest a bottom near $1.20–$1.30, with a rebound possibly reaching $4–$10 next.
- Bulls view current levels as accumulation; caution remains, as a $1 retest could occur.
“$XRP Will Never Reach $1 Again”
In a tweet, widely followed community analyst CryptoBull noted that roughly 18 months ago, many traders insisted the asset would never reclaim the $1 level. At the time, $XRP was on a historic bull run, breaking above the $0.50 range “for good.”
Specifically, in November 2024, $XRP’s price broke out of the $0.50 range and surpassed $1 for the first time in three years. It later reached $2 the same month and continued to climb to $3 by January 2025.
At the time, many believed that buying $XRP under $1 was no longer possible, expecting only an uptrend. However, with the ongoing bearish market, $XRP now risks dropping below $1 once again. For CryptoBull, this is another opportunity to enter before the next leg up.
From “Never $1 Again” to Double-Digit Talk
The comments come during a volatile period for the market. Earlier this month, $XRP fell near $1.11 after a broad sell-off triggered by Bitcoin sliding toward $60,000. The drop erased about 70% of gains from the July 2025 high around $3.66.
However, the asset quickly rebounded and has been fluctuating in the mid-$1 range, prompting debate over whether a base is forming.
Several analysts now outline a bottom forming between roughly $1.20 and $1.30, with a potential breakout to $4. According to CryptoBull, $XRP’s next milestone is a move into the double-digit range, with a target of $10.
Market watcher ExtraVOD shared a similar view, describing the recent decline as market exhaustion and suggesting $XRP could accelerate into higher price ranges soon.
“Next Best Opportunity”
In a separate commentary, YouTuber Jesus Martinez echoed the recurring theme of regret over missed opportunities. He reminded followers that investors have historically wished they bought early—whether Bitcoin at $1,000 or $XRP at $0.10—and suggested the market may be presenting a similar opportunity now.
Meanwhile, analyst Zach Rector believes the market could revisit the psychological $1 level and below to complete a double-bottom structure before a sustained rally begins. Rather than waiting for exact lows, he recommends positioning slightly above this level to avoid missing a reversal. He projects a $7 target in a new bull phase.
Essentially, bulls see the current range as an accumulation phase after a 70% reset, while cautious traders warn that another retest near $1 is possible. Sentiment is transitioning from fear toward cautious optimism, the same shift that historically preceded $XRP’s strongest rallies, according to analysts.
