Why XRP May Need to Fall Against Bitcoin Before It Wins Again: Analyst

XRP may need to drop toward a long-standing historical demand zone against Bitcoin (BTC) before it can start its next major outperformance period. Analyst ChartNerd challenges the common view that XRP simply follows BTC, suggesting investors expecting an immediate recovery could be getting ahead of themselves. In a clip shared on X, ChartNerd overlaid XRP/BTC on the monthly XRP/USD chart and marked a green demand zone at the bottom of the pair’s range. According to him, the strongest catch-up rallies historically started after the pair returned to that area.
