Move over, Bitcoin—XRP might be the next crypto asset to explode. Analysts are spotting eerie parallels between XRP's current setup and Bitcoin's pre-bull run patterns. Buckle up.

### The Bitcoin Blueprint

Remember Bitcoin's slow grind before it skyrocketed? The same technical signals—consolidation, whale accumulation, and breakout indicators—are flashing for XRP. Traders who missed BTC's rally are eyeing this as a second chance (or desperately chasing FOMO, depending who you ask).

### The Liquidity Factor

XRP's recent legal clarity vs. the SEC injected institutional interest—just like Bitcoin's ETF approvals did. Now, derivatives markets are heating up, and OTC desks report silent accumulation. Classic pre-pump behavior.

### The Cynical Kick

Of course, this could all be hedge funds recycling last cycle's playbook to lure retail bagholders. But hey, in crypto, even recycled narratives print—until they don't.

XRP Following In The Footsteps Of Bitcoin

The conversation began when an account on X known as “Invest In Assets” advised investors against prematurely selling a big winner. In response, Jake Claver noted Bitcoin’s runs as textbook examples of missed opportunities. Particularly, he noted that the mistake of selling too early happened to many people with Bitcoin, and it will ultimately happen again with XRP.

Many traders who were fortunate to invest in Bitcoin very early exited when it started to soar in 2017 and 2021, only to watch prices soar far higher. Now, XRP is being framed as the next potential case study, and many analysts, not only Jake Claver, argue that the psychological trap of early profit-taking could strike again.

Adding more weight to this argument is crypto commentator Vincent Van Code’s claim that bitcoin was only an experiment, while XRP represents the final form of money. According to Van Code, although Bitcoin revolutionized finance by introducing decentralized digital currency with a fixed supply, its slow speed, high transaction costs, and scarcity-focused design ultimately limit its global liquidity potential. 

XRP, which is engineered for speed, scalability, and cross-border liquidity, offers a far more practical architecture for real-world value transfer.

Don’t Sell XRP Too Early

The discussions about not selling XRP early have taken strong root among investors looking to position themselves ahead of what could be another run. This ties into a similar admonishment by investor Johnny Crypto, who once revealed his personal perspective of selling too early. 

Particularly, Johnny Crypto recalled how selling his Amazon stock too early in 1997 cost him $52 million in missed gains, an error he’s determined not to repeat with XRP. He even warned that banks could attempt to seize control of retail crypto holdings within the next year and advised investors to think strategically about asset protection.

XRP has already broken above its 2018 peak of $3.40 to register a new all-time high of $3.65 this cycle. However, several technical analyses have predicted the possibility of entering double-digit territory before the end of 2025.

Analysts agree that the most important thing is patience, because the biggest mistake XRP holders can make this cycle might be selling before the real rally begins. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $3.24, up by 3.1% in the past 24 hours.
