Popular crypto trader known better online as “DonAlt,” who caught XRP’s 700% move in 2025, is pointing at the same type of structure again, and the timing is uncomfortable for a market that just watched Bitcoin drop under $90,000 before grinding back into the mid-$90,000s.
For DonAlt, it is when BTC stops smothering everything around it — XRP has the room to repeat the kind of expansion that previously turned a boring seven-year-long consolidation into a violent 700% repricing.
Even if the current setup is indeed the same, it still looks like it was engineered to test patience. XRP has spent the last few weeks orbiting the $2.20-$2.35 corridor, barely moving more than a few cents in either direction despite liquidations, ETF headlines and intraday BTC swings that erased billions from the market.
XRP to $20?
The trader’s playbook depends on this exact pattern. If XRP closes above the $2.45 cluster with Bitcoin holding even a neutral tone above $95,000, the chart opens a path back toward the September zone near $2.80. From there, the next region sits around $3.10, the same target that turned into the launchpad during the previous run that eventually pushed the asset more than 700%.
XRP already survived aggressive sell-through during Bitcoin’s three-day slide from $105,800 to the mid-$90,000s. If the crypto market finally stabilizes, the asset sitting in a tight compression with multidollar upside historically becomes the one that breaks first.
