That works out to roughly a 12x increase.<\/p>\n<p>The setup goes back years. According to Marks, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coingecko.com\/en\/coins\/xrp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">XRP<\/a> formed a large pennant pattern starting in 2017, right after the token&#8217;s first major surge.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">To a fairly precise degree, the measured move price target for <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24XRP&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$XRP<\/a> is right under $17.<\/p>\n<p>This means that another increase of over 1,111% could take place in response to the huge, 2017-like pennant breakout which occurred in late 2024. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4Hj5gZJYkj\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/4Hj5gZJYkj<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 JAVON<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/26a1.png\" alt=\"\u26a1\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em;max-height: 1em\" \/>MARKS (@JavonTM1) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JavonTM1\/status\/2041884913939402804?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">April 8, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-891231\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/a_f0c1de.png?resize=1024%2C702\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"702\" \/><\/p>\n<p>That kind of pattern typically reflects a pause before a trend picks back up. He says XRP broke out of that pennant in late 2024, during a broader market rally that followed the US presidential election.<\/p>\n<p>Using the scale of the original 2017 run as a guide, Marks projects the next leg of the move could carry XRP to near $17.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, if history repeats itself \u2014 and that is a big if \u2014 XRP could still be in the early part of a much larger move.<\/p>\n<h2>XRP: Debate Among Analysts<\/h2>\n<p>Not everyone is convinced the ride up will be smooth. Some XRP followers have raised the possibility of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.binance.com\/en\/square\/post\/25049342631026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">fake breakout<\/a> before any real rally takes hold.<\/p>\n<p>Marks acknowledged that kind of short-term volatility is possible. Still, he stood by the overall structure, saying the current setup closely mirrors what XRP looked like in 2017 before it made its big run.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/YrUod25P\/\" width=\"1835\" height=\"951\" \/><\/p>\n<p>At current prices, Marks argues XRP is trading at a steep discount relative to where the measured move points. That framing has attracted attention from traders who follow chart-based analysis closely.<\/p>\n<p>XRP has been sending mixed signals this week. The token climbed to around $1.39 after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/liveblog\/2026\/4\/10\/iran-war-live-israeli-attacks-on-lebanon-threaten-us-iran-ceasefire-talks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">news of an Iran ceasefire<\/a>, then pulled back to roughly $1.32 \u2014 a drop of about 3.3% in 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Other Bullish Voices In The Mix<\/p>\n<p>Marks is not alone in making a high-target call, though the numbers vary widely. Analyst CG has pointed to a two-year <a href=\"https:\/\/www.investopedia.com\/terms\/e\/elliottwavetheory.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Elliott Wave<\/a> count, with Wave 3 potentially driving XRP toward $24.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, another market commentator said XRP may be <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DefendDark\/status\/2041828926700372343?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">approaching a fresh all-time high<\/a> after breaking out of a resistance-support triangle.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, some analysts have held onto the view that a drop below $1 remains on the table before any major move higher. That split shows just how divided the XRP crowd remains heading into what could be a defining stretch for the token.<\/p>\n<p><em>Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some XRP watchers are not waiting for a dip below $1.
