XRP (XRP) has surged over 350% against Bitcoin (BTC) since Donald Trump’s November election victory and continues to show similarities to its 2017 bull market. Analysts suggest the XRP/BTC pair could double in value by March, echoing a fractal that preceded a 2,500% rally during the 2017 ICO boom.
In January 2025 alone, XRP/BTC is up 32%, breaking key resistance levels and entering the overbought zone on the Relative Strength Index (RSI). Despite RSI levels above 70 often signaling consolidation, market fundamentals could push prices higher, as they did in 2017.
Key drivers include potential approval of XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs) under the Trump administration, with analysts predicting capital inflows of $4–$8 billion. Ripple’s launch of RLUSD, a stablecoin designed to boost XRPL liquidity, also strengthens XRP’s utility.
Technically, XRP/BTC’s next target is the 0.236 Fibonacci retracement level at 6,471 satoshis, signaling a 100% potential gain from current levels. With strong fundamentals and bullish momentum, XRP could continue its upward trajectory in the coming months.
