Time to pay close attention! pic.twitter.com/4VwsU8Im7E — STEPH IS CRYPTO (@Steph_iscrypto) September 16, 2025 Lessons From the 2017/2018 Cycle The left side of the chart tracks XRP’s price action during the 2017/2018 cycle. At its peak, XRP achieved an extraordinary gain of over 40,000%. The rally took XRP from fractions of a cent to an all-time high of $3.36 at the time, before a steep correction of approximately 74% followed, pulling the asset into a consolidation phase . That dramatic rise and subsequent decline remain one of the most notable moments in the asset’s market history. The highlighted data shows that XRP’s initial upward momentum was swift and intense, fueled by both retail and institutional interest. While the retracement was severe, the cycle established a precedent for how XRP behaves in a bull market. Analysts continue to use that cycle as a benchmark when evaluating XRP’s potential in new market conditions.

According to the projection, XRP has already entered a growth phase, with the potential for gains reaching nearly 1,936% from current levels. The chart outlines a possible trajectory that could lift XRP’s price higher, with key levels extending above its all-time high of $3.65 and even pointing toward the $10 range. This perspective builds on the notion that, while XRP’s growth may not replicate the 40,000% of the 2017 cycle, the asset could still generate returns that stand out in the current market. The forecast reflects both the maturation of the cryptocurrency industry and XRP’s established position as a digital asset with ongoing demand from both institutions and retail investors. The chart positions XRP’s current cycle as one with meaningful upside potential. The direct comparison with the previous cycle highlights the belief that XRP continues to follow repeatable long-term patterns , and traders watching XRP may interpret these similarities as signs of another major rally approaching.
