Renowned trading expert Peter L. Brandt, with decades of experience in the financial markets, has highlighted a significant bullish formation on the XRP/USD chart. The potential breakout could drive XRP to new heights. The “Half Mast Flag” Pattern On December 17, Peter Brandt shared an analysis of the XRP/USD trading pair, identifying a “Half Mast Flag” pattern. According to Brandt, this pattern often signals that an asset is gearing for an upward move, with the potential price increase matching the initial advance leading to the flag’s formation. The “Half Mast Flag” typically occurs when an asset’s price experiences a sharp move, followed by consolidation before resuming its upward trajectory. If this pattern completes as expected, XRP could be set for a significant price surge. Brandt’s observation has drawn agreement from various market commentators, with some suggesting that the asset’s price could exceed $3 if the breakout materializes.

Martinez identified a “Bull Flag” formation and predicted that breaking the $2.60 resistance level could pave the way for the token to climb toward $4. Major Transactions Linked to Binance While technical patterns point to bullish potential, on-chain activity has also caught the attention of analysts. Recently, a massive deposit of 69.3 million XRP, valued at approximately $175.8 million, was transferred to a Binance wallet from an unidentified address, according to data from the analytics platform Bithomp.

The transactions, totaling 920 million XRP—equivalent to $1.92 billion—indicate significant movements within the Binance ecosystem. While these transfers were substantial, they remained within Binance-associated wallets, raising questions about potential strategies or preparations linked to asset price activity. Ripple USD Stablecoin Gains Attention Adding to the excitement around the asset, the Ripple USD (RLUSD) stablecoin officially launched on December 17. Ripple minted nearly $66 million worth of RLUSD after receiving regulatory approval from the New York State Department of Financial Services. This stablecoin is expected to enhance liquidity and expand decentralized finance (DeFi) opportunities on the XRP Ledger. Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson also expressed enthusiasm for RLUSD, describing it as “awesome” in a recent post on X . When asked whether Cardano might adopt RLUSD, Hoskinson indicated ongoing efforts toward this goal. As the asset consolidates near the $2.60 resistance level, the combination of technical patterns, whale activity, and ecosystem developments paints a promising picture. Breaking above the resistance could confirm the bullish formations identified by analysts, potentially driving the token toward $4 or higher.
