XRP on Verge of Big 30% Breakout Against Bitcoin

Brett, a crypto expert well-known for his analysis, has pointed to a key setup in the XRP/BTC trading pair, suggesting that a substantial move may be brewing for XRP against Bitcoin.

In a recent post on X, formerly Twitter, Brett shared a chart using monthly candlesticks to highlight a classic Bollinger Band squeeze forming. This squeeze often precedes massive spikes in volatility. According to the analyst, XRP could soon experience a 30% breakout against BTC.

Bollinger Band Squeeze Nears Breaking Point

The chart Brett shared shows how XRP has spent several months consolidating after a strong rally in late 2024. The Bollinger Bands, which measure volatility, were wide during this period but have narrowed significantly, hinting at an upcoming breakout.

The analyst’s chart points to a pattern similar to that seen in November 2024, when XRP began a sharp upward move after an extended period of low volatility. The tightening bands contributed to the surge after former SEC Chair Gary Gensler announced his resignation. Now that these bands are tightening, a similar surge may be coming.

These bands have been compressing steadily since late March, indicating reduced volatility. As we know, such tightening in the bands has historically foreshadowed sharp directional moves. In his projection, Brett suggests that the next move might favor XRP.

What to Expect from XRP

Brett’s chart also shows that the 20-period simple moving average, which serves as the basis line of the Bollinger Bands, has flattened. This is another sign that the price is in consolidation. The candles from March to May also have small bodies, reflecting limited price action and reinforcing that a larger move may be ahead.

Brett’s chart shows XRP stabilizing near the 0.000023 BTC level, with the most recent candles closing just below the basis line of the Bollinger Bands. The analyst did not attribute the potential breakout to any specific external catalyst. Rather, his observation is purely technical.

The digital asset currently trades at $2.15, and applying the potential 30% increase would send it to $2.795, its highest level since early March 2025. The precedent set in late 2024, when a similar setup led to strong gains for XRP, seems to be the foundation for his current outlook.

Analysts have consistently predicted that we can expect to see more gains for XRP against Bitcoin, and this Bollinger Band squeeze could contribute significantly to this growth if the breakout happens.
