The cryptocurrency market is buzzing with excitement following the recent rally sparked by the Fed’s decision to cut interest rates. Historically, October has been a bullish month for crypto, and many investors are betting on a continued surge. Bitcoin (BTC) has already surged to $66,000, its highest level since August, igniting rallies across several major altcoins, including XRP. Over the past 30 days, XRP has seen modest gains of 9.60%.
XRP Breaks Out of Long Consolidation
A prominent chart analyst, known as @CaptainFaibik, shared his insights today on the X platform (formerly Twitter), stating that XRP has finally confirmed a massive breakout. According to his analysis, XRP’s symmetrical triangle breakout has come after three years of long consolidation, marking a significant moment for the token.
CaptainFaibik is optimistic about XRP’s future, setting a mid-term price target of $2.40—almost a 300% increase from its current price of $0.64.
SEC Appeal Could Impact XRP’s Future
However, despite the excitement surrounding XRP’s breakout, there is a looming concern that could impact its future price action. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) may still appeal a court ruling that previously determined XRP was not a security. According to Watcher Guru, speculation about the SEC’s appeal is growing, and the agency has until October 6 to file.
Crypto analyst Mattew Perry weighed in on the situation in a recent YouTube video, noting that the outcome of the SEC’s appeal decision could drastically alter XRP’s trajectory. If the SEC decides to appeal, it could introduce uncertainty and dampen investor enthusiasm. On the flip side, if the agency chooses not to appeal, XRP could experience another major price boost as traders gain confidence in its regulatory standing.
With just days left before the SEC’s deadline, XRP investors are eagerly awaiting the next move. If everything goes in XRP’s favor, October could bring significant gains, continuing the bullish momentum sparked by the broader crypto market rally.
