69,000% XRP Price Rally on the Cards? Raoul Pal Believes This Bullish History Will Repeat

David Pal, co-founder of Real Vision, suggests that the cryptocurrency market is mirroring the behavioral pattern seen in early 2017 following Donald Trump’s first presidential inauguration. This observation may carry significant implications for XRP, especially if a repeat of that historic surge materializes. Market Stagnation Amid 2025 Political Flux Despite a strong rally across the cryptocurrency sector from November 2024 to January 2025, activity has slowed. Altcoins, including XRP, have traded sideways in recent months, while Bitcoin has set new all-time highs. This divergence has led many investors to pause and ask what comes next for the broader market and major altcoins like XRP. Pal identifies a parallel between current market dynamics and those seen during the first Trump presidency. In late 2016, following Trump’s victory, global financial markets reacted with increased volatility and a stronger U.S. dollar. A similar strengthening of the dollar occurred after Trump’s recent election, contributing to tightening financial conditions and asset price corrections in early 2025. Like in 2017, Pal notes that this recent strengthening of the dollar is likely temporary and driven by policy shifts rather than fundamental economic forces. The strategic pressure for a weaker dollar, he explains, creates a favorable environment for risk assets, particularly equities and cryptocurrencies. As the dollar softens, capital typically flows back into these markets, potentially setting the stage for renewed rallies. XRP’s 2017 Rally: A Metric for Comparison XRP exhibited a remarkable climb in early 2017. Between March and May of that year, its price rose from $0.0055 to $0.3988, a staggering 7,150% increase. A consolidation followed until December, after which XRP surged again, rising 1,517% to reach an all-time high of $3.80 in January 2018. Altogether, this cycle saw XRP appreciate nearly 69,000%. Repeating History? The token’s recent price trajectory shows striking similarities to the 2017 cycle. From November 2024 through January 2025, following Trump’s election, the token climbed from approximately $0.50 to $3.40, a 580% gain over three months. A subsequent six-month consolidation phase has ensued, mirroring the 2017 pattern.

EGRAG Crypto, among others, suggests that if the historical pattern continues, XRP could experience a second upward wave of around 121.8%, potentially pushing its price from approximately $2.27 to $5. Some analysts even project a minimum of $6 in this next leg, with the possibility of reaching $7.80 should momentum intensify. In May, Raoul Pal himself expressed confidence about XRP’s next directional move. If XRP follows the same trajectory as the 2017 rally, continued momentum could yield significant returns. A 121.8% increase from its current price would place XRP near $5. A doubling of that move could push its valuation to nearly $8. These scenarios, while speculative, offer a clear reference point for investors monitoring XRP’s alignment with macroeconomic shifts and historical precedent. If Raoul Pal’s comparison holds, the present market structure may mark the beginning of another major altcoin rally similar to the 2017 cycle. For XRP holders, this context provides reason for optimism, but it also underscores the need for disciplined analysis, risk management, and close attention to macroeconomic indicators.
