XRP: A Fortunate Rise?

by

It appears a certain Mr. Bird, a gentleman deeply involved with the workings of the XRPL-and curiously preoccupied with a ‘meme coin’ called DROP-ventures to suggest that XRP may be on the cusp of… something. A turning of the tide, perhaps? He observes, with a rather dramatic flourish, that the charts are ‘tightening’; a most unsettling image. 🧐

Through a series of missives upon the platform known as X (a modern form of correspondence, I gather), Mr. Bird posits that a ‘decisive move’ is nigh, likely before the week is out. Should this move be upward, he predicts a swift advance towards the ambitious target of $2.69, a sum which, he assures us, will herald the arrival of a ‘bull run’. One almost feels a sense of expectation… or is that merely Mr. Bird’s enthusiasm?

He draws our attention to an illustration of a ‘contracting triangle’ (a geometrical shape, it seems) where the price is, as he puts it, being ‘compressed’. Indeed, one might feel rather compressed oneself contemplating such matters. It is, he believes, a sign of impending action-and not the sort best suited to a quiet afternoon tea. ☕

The Russell 2000 and XRP: A Peculiar Connection

But Mr. Bird does not confine his observations to XRP alone. He also directs our gaze towards the Russell 2000, a cohort of smaller American businesses. He claims a historical alignment between the fortunes of these enterprises and XRP, a connection that smacks of a most unusual sensibility.

“The Russell,” he declares, “matters ALOT for XRP!”, a sentiment expressed with an emphatic capitalisation. He suggests that XRP behaves more like a venturesome youth than a settled gentleman, tracking the risks embraced by the Russell 2000 far more closely than the more established and respectable indices.

This ‘rotation of capital’, as he calls it, seems to be a source of great anticipation. He notes, with a touch of impatience, that XRP has remained ‘sideways’ for over a year, while other markets display more animation. One wonders if stagnation is not simply the natural order of things, and a little restraint is not always a virtue.

He recalls a past instance from November ’24, when the Russell’s fortunes improved, and XRP followed suit with a ‘parabolic’ ascent – a rather dramatic expression! He anticipates a similar outcome, though swiftly awaits a distinct indication of a renewed enthusiasm for risk.

Furthermore, Mr. Bird offers tidings of ‘acquisitions’ and ‘partnerships’ surrounding XRP and Ripple, suggesting a nascent momentum gathering in the background. He believes simply one positive bit of news could set the whole thing alight. One feels obligated to add that optimism should be tempered with a degree of sobriety.🧐

The crucial test, then, is whether the charts deliver on Mr. Bird’s predictions and whether the appetite for risk persists. Should both factors align, the gentleman opines that a significant advance towards $2.69 is not beyond the realm of possibility – and, perhaps, a faster path to greater success.

At the present moment, XRP is valued at $2.06. A modest sum, perhaps, but then again, fortunes are rarely built overnight.
