Discussions around XRP’s long-term potential continue despite the asset’s weak performance in recent months. While many market participants had anticipated a significant rally earlier in the year, the token has instead shown continued volatility. According to market data, XRP has declined both on a quarterly scale and year-to-date, contributing to growing concerns within the community. Some commentators, including Zach Rector, have argued that several developments slowed XRP’s momentum. He pointed to the prolonged legal dispute with the U.S. SEC, delays surrounding the introduction of XRP exchange-traded products, and the absence of regulatory clarity as contributing factors. In his view, these issues prevented XRP from achieving price levels that were once expected for 2025. Despite these, not all analysts are discouraged. One of the more optimistic voices is The Block Bull, who recently outlined what he sees as a realistic upper boundary for XRP if the market enters a supercycle. His assessment places a potential top near $48, assuming XRP can regain key technical levels that previously shaped its long-term trajectory. Realistic height For $XRP for those that believe in the Super Cycle… Parallel Channel Gives you greater targets to obtain 20X~ in a super cycle $40.00+ pic.twitter.com/thb8IUCnwD — BLOCK BULL (@TheBlockBull) December 7, 2025 Long-Term Structure: The Parallel Channel Framework A major part of The Block Bull’s argument centers around a parallel ascending channel that he states has influenced XRP’s market structure for several years. This chart pattern came into focus in 2017, a period when XRP was still valued under one cent. The analyst highlights that the asset repeatedly interacted with the upper boundary of this channel at the time and consistently maintained support above it, leading into its 2018 surge toward all-time highs. Following the peak, XRP eventually fell back into the channel and continued trading within it for several years. Although its progression was slow, the structure suggested steady upward movement. That trend came under substantial pressure during the 2022 downturn, which was intensified by large-scale market failures involving major industry players. As a result, XRP fell below the lower boundary of the channel and has remained outside of it since then. Renewed optimism briefly surfaced in late 2024 when XRP approached $2, bringing it close to the channel’s lower line again. However, attempts to regain this technical level have repeatedly been rejected, indicating strong resistance.

In his analysis, the upper boundary of the channel points to a potential high near $48 if a broad market expansion occurs. He views this level as ambitious yet still within the realm of possibility if XRP manages to reclaim its historical structure. At current prices, around $2, reaching the $48 region would represent an increase of more than 20 times from the present market value. Even so, the analyst acknowledges that many investors may choose to take profits much earlier, particularly around the $10 range, which he believes would trigger significant selling pressure. Although the $48 estimate is aggressive, it is not entirely isolated. Forecasts from research platforms such as Changelly have also placed XRP in that general range over the long term, projecting a potential move toward this level in the early 2030s. The outlook for XRP remains divided between ongoing skepticism and persistent long-term optimism. While the asset continues to face technical and regulatory challenges, some analysts argue that a return to its historical channel could open the door to substantial appreciation. Whether the conditions required for a supercycle will materialize is uncertain, but the discussion underscores the wide range of expectations surrounding XRP’s future trajectory.
