XRP flirted with stronger levels this week but slipped back as traders reassessed positions. According to a tweet by community figure Zach Rector, the next rally could arrive without much warning and push the token to a fresh all-time high.
Price was at $2.40 on Wednesday, down from $2.43, marking a 1.14% fall over 24 hours. Daily trading volume rose to $4.9 billion, up 6.39%.
Reactions to Rector’s claim were split. Some holders sounded upbeat and said they would be “caught off guard” in a good way. Others pushed back, arguing that similar optimism has circulated for years with no sustained break above prior highs.
Based on reports in the thread, one user said the prediction has been repeated for five years and has not yet come true. Another warned that XRP needs to reclaim $3 before talk of new records makes sense.
Market data gives a mixed picture. XRP is up 3.90% over the last seven days, and its market cap sits near $144 billion. Volume jumped even as price eased, a pattern traders often link to profit-taking or position changes ahead of bigger moves.
Some market watchers see the higher volume as preparatory trading; others view it as a sign of selling pressure. Either way, the numbers show more activity than price movement alone would suggest.
Reports have disclosed that broader events have affected XRP recently. The token dropped to an 11-month low after an announcement tied to tariffs from US President Donald Trump, and it has not fully recovered since.
Several commenters on the thread tied XRP’s future to global trade ties and legislative progress in the US — factors outside trading charts that can still weigh on token demand. Bitcoin’s pull is also mentioned often; when Bitcoin weakens, many altcoins find it harder to launch on their own.
Some analysts and users pointed out technical and liquidity barriers. Reclaiming $3 is seen as a short-term test; moving past that would still leave a long road toward new highs.
There are pockets of optimism based on Ripple’s expanding partnerships in banking and payments, which supporters argue could support higher prices when market sentiment improves.
In short, observers are split between hopeful holders and cautious skeptics. According to community chatter and the live figures, momentum is present but uneven. XRP’s path higher will likely require both favorable market moves and clearer macro or regulatory signals.
