Crypto analyst Dark Defender projects that XRP could significantly outperform Ethereum, with the XRP/ETH ratio potentially rising about 306% from its current level. This forecast is based on an Elliott Wave technical pattern targeting a fifth-wave extension to 0.002238 ETH per XRP. However, this projection reflects relative performance, not XRP's absolute price or market cap surpassing Ethereum or Bitcoin. XRP's market cap is currently $86 billion, far below Ethereum's $300 billion and Bitcoin's $1.55 trillion. Institutional access to XRP is expanding through U.S.-listed ETFs, supporting regulated exposure amid mixed market conditions. The key technical levels to watch are the intermediate Fibonacci zones between 0.0006487 and 0.0007773 before the larger target is reached.
