XRP rested at $ 2, but the movement indications increase. A crypto analyst named “J4B1” recently said that the purchase of XRP at $ 2.20 is not too late. In fact, he thinks it may be the ideal moment, just before things change spectacularly. Its claims are based on the action of historic prices, the current Ripple strategy and what institutions can do next.

The XRP price remained stable by the monthly activity of Ripple
Ripple’s domination over XRP supply is an important aspect of the argument of J4B1. Each month, the company releases 1 billion XRP from the whole but only sells a fraction. The remaining amount is returned to the whole. These sales tend to occur via over -the -counter channels (OTC) rather than open markets. In the opinion of the analyst, this practice prevents Ripple from undergoing net price fluctuations.
Is XRP about to explode or already too expensive?

He used an example: if Ripple wants to transfer $ 200 million using 100 million XRP, each part will be worth $ 2. If the price increases too quickly, Ripple can sell more. If it falls too far, they can buy it back. This strategy could be one of the reasons why XRP did not cross the barrier of $ 2.20.
Institutional demand could change everything
J4B1 mentioned some elements that could lead XRP. He cited a possible regulatory clarity of a new American administration which could be more friendly. He also talked about the possibility of an XRP ETF and the growth of tokenized assets on the large XRP book.
The analyst believes that if the institutions are starting to accumulate in large quantities, the current Ripple approach may not be sufficient to contain the price. If demand exceeds the supply that ripples A, the price may increase.

XRP’s story contains clues
XRP’s trip started in 2012, while it was worth less than one penny. It has accelerated over the years when Ripple has sold it to banks as a means of making cross -border payments faster and cheaper. This momentum brought XRP to a summit of $ 3.80 in the 2017 Bull Run.

But everything changed when the regulators intervened. In 2015, Ripple was sentenced to a fine by Fincen. Then, in 2020, the SEC trial concluded, slowing down the adoption of XRP and keeping the price under control. However, Ripple continued to build, acquire companies like Metaco and obtain licenses around the world.
Whale wallets develop quickly
Meanwhile, while the price of XRP remains stagnant, the major holders fill up. According to recent statistics, there are now more than 300,000 addresses with a minimum of 10,000 XRP. This is an increase compared to around 281,000 in December 2024. Whale portfolios continue to increase even if the price remains largely stable around $ 2.20.
This type of accumulation tends to indicate the feeling that prices can increase more in the future. This happens as global uncertainty increases, which can encourage investors to prepare for the next major movement.
For the moment, XRP traders are paying particular attention. Rapid movement up may not be far away.
