Over the last 24 hours, XRP has experienced one of its sharpest declines in recent months, breaching the crucial $0.50 support zone. 

Maintaining a price above $0.50 was widely regarded as pivotal for the token to break free from the prolonged consolidation below $0.60.

Amid this bearish sentiment, cryptocurrency analyst Egrag Crypto, in a June 7 analysis posted on X (formerly Twitter), suggested that XRP is poised for what he termed as ‘legendary’ upside potential.

According to the analysis, XRP could witness an upside of 41%. A deep dive into the token’s chart presents a macro view described as “insanely bullish.”

The analysis highlighted the necessity of a 41% price surge to reach a crucial point on the chart, drawing parallels to a similar surge observed in 2017. While the analyst couldn’t pinpoint the exact percentage increase, Fibonacci 1.618 was identified as the ultimate target for the rally.

“In a macro view, the chart below is insanely bullish, and the breakout to the upside will be nothing short of legendary!,” the expert said. 

We need a 41% pump to be on the edge of the triangle. In 2017, we experienced a similar 41% surge, and then Valhalla awaited us.

Additionally, the analysis suggested that measured moves and Fibonacci targets signal inevitable double-digit gains for XRP. However, amid anticipating a significant uptrend, the analyst advised caution, urging investors to implement robust risk management strategies.

Intrigues behind XRP’s sharp decline

It’s worth noting that several factors are contributing to XRP’s current state amid the bullish prediction. Indeed, XRP’s current sharp decline has coincided with Ripple’s transfer of 200 million XRP tokens to an unknown wallet, sparking speculation about the token’s future. 

Speculation regarding Ripple potentially abandoning its native token amidst plans to launch its stablecoin has also circulated.

Despite XRP’s lackluster performance and ongoing legal uncertainties with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Ripple has made notable strides in its business operations. For example, the recent partnership with Clear Junction aims to facilitate instant and secure GBP and EUR-denominated payouts for Ripple’s payment customers.

Elsewhere, the token’s technical indicators reflect the bearish sentiment surrounding XRP, with a ‘strong sell’ sentiment dominating the one-day gauges summary retrieved from TradingView and a similar sentiment under the moving average. Oscillators, however, present a ‘neutral’ stance.

In conclusion, if XRP emulates the 2017 move, the anticipated price movement could relieve investors concerned about the token’s failure to match up with established peers like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).
