XRP set for $7 if this level breaks, according to expert
XRP could be on the verge of a major trend reversal that may eventually push the token toward the $7 mark, according to cryptocurrency market analyst DavidTheBuilder . This outlook comes as XRP attempts to mount a recovery following a recent crash that saw the asset drop below the $1 level. At press time, the token was trading at $1.43, up a modest 1% over the past 24 hours. On a weekly basis, however, XRP remains down more than 11%. XRP seven-day price chart.

XRP price analysis chart. Source: CoinMarketCap According to the analyst, a clean and sustained breakout above this zone would signal a structural shift in momentum, likely attracting technical buyers and sidelined capital. Such a move could accelerate price action toward the $5 level, with $7 emerging as a realistic upside target if bullish conditions persist. However, the analyst emphasized that technical breakouts alone may not be enough to support a long-term rally. The durability of any upside move would depend heavily on fundamental developments, particularly increased real-world usage of XRP. XRP fundamentals It is worth noting that XRP has largely traded in line with broader market sentiment, closely aligning with Bitcoin ( BTC ), as there has been no Ripple-specific news impacting price action. As a result, growth in cross-border payment adoption, increased institutional participation through exchange-traded funds ( ETFs ), and higher on-chain transaction volumes would be required to translate short-term momentum into sustained demand. As things stand, XRP remains locked in a prolonged downtrend that has been in place since late 2025, characterized by a series of lower highs and lower lows. Price action is still well below key moving averages, reinforcing the prevailing bearish structure. Overall, XRP remains in a bearish state, trading below both its 50-day ($1.89) and 200-day ($2.40) moving averages , signaling weakness in the medium- to long-term trend. Meanwhile, the 14-day RSI at 37.8 sits in neutral territory, suggesting selling pressure is easing but not yet indicating a strong reversal.
