Maybe XRP A major technological moment is approaching After returning to an important level on the XRP/BTC chart. A cryptocurrency analyst known as Austin recently highlighted that the last time XRP broke through certain resistance against Bitcoin, it resulted in a rapid and strong price expansion. That same level is currently being tested again, and it's worth keeping a close eye on how XRP moves from here.
XRP/BTC breakout level return
Technical analysis of the price trend of XRP against BTC shows that an important signal lies in the performance of XRP against Bitcoin, specifically at the 0.00002168 level on the XRP/BTC chart. This level is interesting because the last time XRP/BTC broke out of this zone, the pair soared around 40% in less than a week.

However, the move did not occur because the price of Bitcoin crashed, but because XRP rose. As XRP gained momentum against Bitcoin, XRP/USD also recorded an even bigger breakout of over 50% within the next week.
The chart accompanying Austin's post highlights an eight-day move in which XRP rose approximately 52.9%, rising from the low $2 range to over $3.60. Trading volumes increased significantly during this period, ultimately pushing XRP to an all-time high of $3.65.
As things stand, the XRP/BTC pair is currently trading around this same level and the latest daily candlestick is in green, meaning that XRP is outperforming Bitcoin. History has shown that when XRP starts to decisively outperform Bitcoin, it often leads to a broader price expansion. Austin noted that breaking through this level again could be an important sign of a major move ahead.

If XRP/BTC is able to close convincingly above 0.00002168, it could signal a new shift in momentum. If that happens, attention will likely return to the higher resistance zones on the USD chart, including initial upside targets of $1.90 and then $2.10.
A stronger continuation could pave the way for retesting deeper overhead supply levels. If this structure repeats the previous breakout, with XRP up 52% in a short window, the price prediction would put the asset near the $2.30 area from current levels.
