XRP’s Monthly RSI Signals Imminent Cycle 3 Blow-Off Top—Analyst Forecasts 97x Peak
Brace for liftoff—XRP’s monthly Relative Strength Index (RSI) is flashing a historic pattern that’s preceded its most explosive rallies. One crypto strategist insists we’re on the cusp of a 'Cycle 3' parabolic surge, with price targets mirroring 1997’s legendary bull run.
### The RSI Setup: A Powder Keg
When XRP’s monthly RSI breaks above 70—like it just did—the asset tends to enter a 'blow-off top' phase. Translation: vertical price action that leaves skeptics scrambling. Past cycles saw gains of 97x or more. This time? The chart’s screaming déjà vu.
### Wall Street’s Nightmare Fuel
While traditional finance clings to its 60/40 portfolios, XRP’s technicals hint at a liquidity grab that could dwarf Bitcoin’s 2021 mania. The kicker? Banks still call crypto a 'fad'—right before begging for regulatory lifeboats.
### The Verdict: Buckle Up
Either this analyst’s nailed a generational call, or XRP’s about to serve a masterclass in volatility. One thing’s certain: boring won’t be an option.
Major Pump, Correction, And Blow-Off Top
Egrag’s framework is built around a repeating pattern that’s always taking place on XRP’s monthly RSI indicator. According to his analysis, the first stage of the cycle historically delivers a major RSI pump, followed by the second stage, where corrections set in, and then a third stage that has consistently played out as a blow-off top.
Both Cycle 1 and Cycle 2, which took place during the XRP rallies of 2017 and 2021, respectively, exhibited the same sequence, although with varying levels of intensity. The 2017 rally was much greater than the 2021 rally, which was suppressed by the Ripple lawsuit at the time. As such, the 2021 RSI pattern was much less pronounced, but it followed the same sequence nonetheless.
The current setup, which is marked as Cycle 3 in the chart below, has already seen the pump and correction phases completed. What remains, according to the analyst, is the third stage. This is the push to an RSI blow-off top that could send the price of XRP into new territories.
Egrag Crypto predicted three possible targets of 80, 87, and an ambitious 97 for XRP’s monthly RSI peak in the current cycle. These numbers are derived from the RSI trajectory observed in the last two cycles and projected onto today’s XRP RSI conditions.

What Does This Mean For XRP’s Price?
If XRP’s monthly RSI reaches levels such as 80, 87, or even 97, it WOULD be one of the strongest overbought signals in the asset’s history. The last time XRP’s monthly RSI crossed above 90 was during the 2017 bull run, which saw XRP’s price explode from less than $0.1 to its then all-time high of $3.40.
In technical terms, an RSI above 70 means that an asset is trading at overheated levels, but in bull markets, these conditions can persist for extended periods during price rallies. For XRP, such elevated RSI readings would likely coincide with new all-time highs that mirror those seen in the 2017 bull run. Realistically, this could see the xrp price break above its newly established all-time high of $3.65 and into $4, $5, and beyond into double digits.
XRP RSI reaching above 90 could also serve as a warning that the price may already be at a new multi-year top. At the time of writing, the monthly XRP RSI was at a 73 reading. XRP was trading at $3.12.
