Ethereum to $10,000: Top XRP Analyst Reveals Real Level He Plans to Sell ETH

Crypto trader DonAlt, known for his accurate 700% prediction of $XRP price movement, named a technical target of $10,000 for Ethereum. However, he ironically admitted that he plans to close his own position much earlier, once $ETH reaches $3,000.

During a discussion on X, the analyst revealed details of his current trading setup, demonstrating a skeptical attitude toward long-term five-figure targets.

According to DonAlt, he opened a long position in $ETH at around $1,900 on Aug. 13. The trader admitted that buying at resistance in a consolidating market goes against classical technical analysis. However, the decision was driven by a psychological factor: "I am less comfortable having no position than having one at a less-than-optimal price."

He added that he was prepared to increase the size of his position if the price returned to the "green" support zone at $1,700 per $ETH.

Lessons of the $XRP Rally

Responding to questions from followers, the analyst divided his expectations into three levels. According to DonAlt, his official target is $4,000, while his unofficial macro target stands at $10,000. In practice, however, he intends to take profit at $3,000, thereby poking fun at his own trading discipline and the tendency to secure unrealized gains early.

DonAlt is widely known for his historical $XRP call ahead of the 2024–2025 bull rally, when he successfully predicted the token's rise from $0.50 to $3.50. Notably, his maximum $XRP target at the time was $6.90, but the price reversed before reaching it.

The analyst's latest comment clearly reflects that market experience. Even while allowing for a theoretical rise in $ETH to five-digit levels, the experienced trader would rather secure a gain of approximately 57% than repeat the scenario of holding out for a historical target that is never reached.
