- Altcoin XRP remains in accumulation phase in a flat correction state.
- Analyst believes the same is true for BTC, although not as clean.
- This points to a bullish price surge for both assets and the entire market soon.
With the prices of Bitcoin and Ethereum surging and reclaiming higher price targets today, expectations for a bullish crypto market recovery to commence grow stronger. At the moment, several promising altcoins are showing steady signs of hitting higher ATH prices in the coming days. In detail, altcoin XRP remains in accumulation phase in a flat correction state. Does a pump lie ahead?
Altcoin XRP Remains in Accumulation Phase
Since the Fed injected $13.5 billion into the banking system today, the price of BTC and ETH have both shot up significantly, following a sudden price dump earlier this week. Not only has this boosted a bullish hope for recovery, but analysts also believe this to be a positive sign for Quantitative Easing (QE) to pick up after Quantitative Tightening (QT) was officially ended on December 1, 2025.
According to CoinMarketCap analytics, the price of BTC and ETH both surged by a remarkable amount today. To elaborate, the price of the pioneer crypto asset, Bitcoin (BTC), had fallen as far as the $87,000 price range earlier this week, and today, it has climbed back up to the $94,000 price range. Similarly, the price of the pioneer altcoin asset, Ethereum (ETH), fell as far as the $2,800 price range and is now back up above $3,000.
This month holds high hopes for the crypto community, and QT was called to an end, and analysts hope to see QE kick off and allow a flood of liquidity to flow in, something that hasn’t happened since 2022. With liquidity draining steadily out for almost 3 years, it has been a challenge for crypto prices to surge. Now with QT ended, hope is ignited once again for a crypto bull market to continue.
As we can see from the post above, this logic-based trader shares two charts explaining that these are all that traders need to watch. In detail, the range and levels one needs to navigate what is coming is revealed here. The post decals that the community is currently declaring the top based on the 2021 high. It also states that XRP has never broken down after going sideways for this long, meaning the altcoin is in an accumulation range and a flat correction.
Ripple’s XRP Sits in a Flat Correction State
If XRP ends up taking the lower end of the range with the C leg, it’ll remain to be seen. But if so, it’d be a great buying opportunity, the post says. The dotted ascending range highlighted in the middle (3-legged abc wave in B) has the trader optimistic, as that is a corrective move that is synonymous with a flat correction. Meaning the top was in January, and this indeed is only a sideways correction. The post concludes by stating that XRP is also a perfect example of why he believes BTC is also in a flat correction with the top in January, and that while Bitcoin is messy, XRP is very clean.
