The XRP price is showing signs of a potential breakout, with one analyst pointing to a growing liquidity imbalance that could drive the cryptocurrency toward $4. XRP is currently trading near $1.50, a level that would require sustained bullish momentum and a shift in market sentiment to reach $4.
In a recent post, XRP Ledger (XRPL) developer Bird said XRP is “shaping up well” at current levels, arguing that its broader liquidity structure now favors an aggressive move higher. Bird’s chart suggests that much of the liquidity positioned below the current price has already been cleared, which he said reduces the likelihood of an immediate move downward.
At the same time, Bird highlighted that deeper liquidity—particularly the dark red zones on the chart—remains stacked above the current price, extending toward the $4 area. He noted that these zones are likely populated by short positions, leveraged trades, and stop levels.
Bird said that as XRP moves into these upper liquidity zones, short sellers may be forced to exit. Closing shorts typically requires buying back XRP at higher prices, which can add additional upward pressure. He also referenced XRP’s historical tendency to produce rapid, aggressive rallies when liquidation-driven momentum builds.
Separately, market analyst “Master of Crypto” described XRP’s recent price behavior and potential next steps. He said XRP is approaching a major decision zone that could determine whether it enters a new bullish phase or continues its prior downtrend.
According to Master of Crypto, after weeks of trading within a clear downtrend, XRP’s price is now testing the upper trendline of the structure. He stated that a break and hold above this line near $1.8, supported by strong volume, would make a surge toward $2.00 “highly probable.”
Conversely, if XRP is rejected in this area, Master of Crypto forecast a final pullback toward $1.4 before a more decisive breakout.
