Trader who predicted XRP's 700% rally says $6.9 target is off as growth drivers fade.

A trader who accurately predicted XRP's 700% rally from $0.50 to $3.65 now says the factors behind that surge, termed the "crime cycle," have ended. This cycle involved collusion and insider advantages that fueled XRP's rapid growth in 2024-2025. With these drivers gone, XRP is no longer seen as a unique speculative asset but as a typical cryptocurrency moving with the broader market. The trader advises caution, suggesting that aiming for another spike to $6.9 is risky under current conditions. Meanwhile, XRP remains around $1.46 as the market awaits regulatory decisions that could influence its future status.
