Data Analyst Says XRP Charts Are Screaming Breakout. XRP Is Coming for Ethereum

Focus has returned to XRP after data analyst and financial chartist Celal Kucuker (@CelalKucuker) shared a long-term chart projecting a major breakout.

In a new tweet, Kucuker wrote, “The charts are screaming breakout.” He set a target of $17 for the digital asset, calling it a “destination for this cycle.”

The chart outlines a multi-year structure that tracks XRP’s price action from 2017 through a projected move into 2027. XRP traded near $1.46 at the time of his analysis. Kucuker’s projection places the asset on a path toward $17.53 if the breakout structure completes.

Long-Term Trendline Remains Intact

The chart highlights two major trendlines. A rising support line extends from 2020’s XRP lows through its recent consolidation phase. A descending resistance line from the 2018 peak intersects with current price action near the $1.20 to $1.30 range. Both trendlines form a pattern similar to a symmetrical triangle.

The chart shows that XRP broke out of this formation in late 2024. Shortly after the U.S. Presidential election, XRP surged by over 500%, crossing $3 for the first time since 2018. This move placed it above the upper trendline, and it has maintained that position.

XRP is now retesting the upper trendline, and patterns like this often signal massive breakouts as old resistance levels become support. XRP traded within that pattern for over six years, and a breakout after such a long base could be historic.

Will XRP Surpass Ethereum?

Kucuker also wrote that XRP is “coming for Ethereum’s throne.” The statement added another layer to the discussion surrounding XRP’s market position during the current cycle. Analysts have predicted for years that XRP can flip ETH. Rising to $17 would put XRP’s market cap at over $1 trillion, more than 4x ETH’s $259 billion.

Ethereum remains the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, though XRP supporters have increasingly pointed to XRP’s strength and expanding institutional visibility.

What’s Next for XRP?

This post arrives as XRP continues to outperform several large-cap digital assets. Traders have closely monitored whether XRP can maintain support above the breakout region and continue building momentum toward higher resistance zones.

The chart clearly shows that XRP is about to break out. If the digital asset can maintain current levels, it could become the second-largest cryptocurrency sooner than many expect.
