- An analyst has forecast a potential XRP price rally to the $22-$27 range based on a historical chart pattern
- Meanwhile, legal experts have clarified that a ruling in the Ripple vs. SEC case is not delayed
- The bullish technical outlook for XRP is contrasted by significant legal and regulatory uncertainty.
Prominent crypto chartist EGRAG Crypto has issued a bold forecast, for XRP, drawing attention to a historical pattern that may be repeating, and it could send XRP soaring while the XRP community braces for the long-awaited ruling in the Ripple vs. SEC lawsuit.
The forecast and the ongoing legal uncertainty present two distinct and powerful XRP narratives, with a bullish technical outlook tempered by an unpredictable regulatory backdrop.
The RGB Arcs and the “Kaboom Phase”
EGRAG’s analysis, shared in a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), centers on what he calls the “RGB ARCHS,” a colorful logarithmic framework built from red, green, and blue curved trend lines representing long-term price dynamics of XRP since 2013.
In his chart, which spans over a decade of XRP price data, three critical market cycles are highlighted:
- 2013 top (first peak hitting the blue arc),
- 2018 mega rally (again touching the upper blue band),
- and a potential 2025 blow-off top, aimed at a level between $22.31 and $27.00, with a more euphoric spike possibly reaching $38.00.
What makes this setup even more striking is the observation that in 2017, XRP took only six monthly candles to explode upwards from consolidation to its all-time high. Now, according to EGRAG, XRP has been consolidating for 7 candles, forming a symmetrical triangle, a classic technical formation that often precedes major breakouts.
“Get ready for the ‘KABOOM Phase’! Whether it rises or falls, it’s gonna be explosive,” EGRAG wrote.

XRP Targets
If history repeats, EGRAG’s chart implies a massive parabolic move could be on the horizon. $22.31 is the base target along the green arc intersection with the blue upper arc. The core target if XRP mirrors the 2018-style breakout stands at $27.
Given XRP’s current monthly candle at $2.17, this would represent a 10x to 17x move from present levels. EGRAG, a self-professed “#PERMABULL” on XRP, urges the community to remain patient and strong.
Ripple Lawsuit Update: Timing Is Everything
While the technical setup looks promising, XRP’s legal backdrop remains volatile. Speculation recently swirled that Judge Analisa Torres may delay the ruling in the Ripple vs. SEC case until August 15. However, former SEC attorney Marc Fagel quickly pushed back on that narrative.
“The SEC case is NOT delayed until August 15,” Fagel clarified, adding that Judge Torres can issue her decision “in hours, days, or weeks,” but not necessarily by any specific date.
The confusion stems from a joint motion by Ripple and the SEC asking to pause the appeals process until mid-August, fueling rumors of a timeline shift. But Fagel emphasized that no definitive schedule has been set.

In fact, he warned that the case remains highly unpredictable, with both outcomes, approval or denial of Ripple’s motion to dissolve the injunction, still on the table.
