XRP Price Outlook Tracks EGRAG’s Macro Compression Setup

• Analyst EGRAG Crypto said XRP’s two-month chart shows a large macro compression structure.
• The analyst placed key Fibonacci target areas near $9, $17, and $26 for the current cycle.
• A reply linked the XRP utility debate to institutional adoption, noting that DTCC and Chainlink were expanding their blockchain work.

XRP returned to focus after EGRAG Crypto shared a two-month macro chart showing a large compression structure. The analyst said the current setup does not support straight-line price expectations, as XRP has historically moved through deep corrections before larger expansions.

The chart placed XRP above a long-rising support structure, while higher Fibonacci levels marked possible targets near $9, $17, and $26. Meanwhile, a reply to the post shifted attention toward utility, arguing that institutional use of XRPL could change how technical charts are read.

Analyst Tracks Macro Compression

EGRAG Crypto said XRP’s two-month chart shows a major compression phase. The chart displayed price holding above a long-term ascending support line, while previous cycle peaks created a wide structure that has tightened over several years.

The analyst warned that moving averages and EMAs are lagging indicators. In his view, the 7-week moving average and 11 EMA cross should not act as standalone signals, since price usually moves first and indicators follow later.

Notably, EGRAG said XRP has usually delivered large expansions after painful retracements and emotional shakeouts. That point shaped the main message of the post, which argued that traders should not expect higher targets without volatility.

The chart also showed a possible corrective phase before a stronger move. EGRAG framed the structure as a macro setup where fear, disbelief, and exhaustion often come before a larger upward phase.

$9 to $26 Targets Mark Current Cycle

EGRAG separated near-cycle targets from longer-cycle projections. He said $100 is not the full measured move and is not a target for the next cycle. Instead, he placed $100 in a later cycle after a broader expansion.

For the current macro structure, the analyst pointed to Fibonacci levels. The first major zone sits near the 1.618 extension around $9, while the 2.0 extension stands near $17. The extended 2.272 level sits around $26.

The chart marked a green target box around the $9 to $17 region. EGRAG described that area as a possible ignition phase, meaning it could begin a stronger move rather than end the full macro cycle.

However, those levels remain technical projections, not confirmed outcomes. XRP still needs to defend its rising support structure and clear major resistance before the higher Fibonacci zones become active chart levels.

Utility Debate Enters the Setup

A reply from Sebcrypto added a different angle to the chart discussion. The account said charts may not show the full price area if DTCC and other institutions begin using the utility that XRPL can deliver.

That comment focused on adoption rather than chart structure. It argued that a major utility event could create an expansion that traditional chart models may fail to capture accurately.

Meanwhile, Coin Edition reported that DTCC and Chainlink are expanding blockchain work in financial systems. The report said DTCC will integrate Chainlink technology into its Collateral AppChain platform to improve collateral movement and risk management.

That development does not directly confirm DTCC’s use of XRP or XRPL. Nevertheless, it shows that large financial infrastructure firms continue testing blockchain systems for post-trade, collateral, and settlement functions, which keeps utility debates active across the crypto market.

XRP Structure Remains the Focus

For now, XRP’s chart remains the main signal in EGRAG’s analysis. The two-month view shows long-term compression, a rising support base, and a target ladder that starts near $9 before moving toward $17 and $26.

The key risk is still a deeper retracement before expansion. EGRAG’s post stressed that macro moves often develop after corrections, not during smooth bullish advances.

Additionally, the $100 discussion remains separate from the current cycle outlook. The analyst placed that level beyond the next cycle, while treating the $9 to $17 green box as the first major macro zone.

XRP traders are now watching whether the price can keep holding the long-term structure. A breakdown would weaken the setup, while a confirmed breakout from compression would put the Fibonacci target zones back into focus.
