XRP is trading near $1.57, while one of the market’s most aggressive long-term technical targets remains far above the current price.
Crypto analyst Ali Martinez has outlined a potential path toward $60, based on a long-running ascending triangle on XRP’s monthly chart. But the important number is not $60 itself. Martinez says XRP first needs a monthly close above $3.66 before that larger breakout scenario becomes valid.
His analysis, originally shared on X, treats $3.66 as the confirmation level.
That makes the $60 call highly conditional rather than a near-term forecast.
XRP Still Has a Long Way to Go Before $3.66
At around $1.57, XRP would need to rise roughly 133% just to reach Martinez’s breakout threshold.
That is still meaningful progress from early September, when we first examined Martinez’s $60 XRP target and XRP was trading closer to $1.42.
The more immediate challenge is much lower.
XRP has recently tested the $1.60-$1.66 region but has struggled to hold above it. Our latest XRP price analysis identified that area as the first important resistance zone.
$2 Matters Before $60
Martinez has also published a much nearer-term setup targeting roughly $2 if XRP breaks decisively above the $1.57-$1.60 area.
Coinpaper recently examined what needs to happen before that $2 target works.
That creates a more realistic sequence for traders:
| XRP level | Significance |
|---|---|
| $1.57-$1.60 | Immediate resistance |
| $2.00 | Near-term bullish target |
| $3.66 | Long-term breakout trigger |
| $9.49-$31.87 | Higher technical extensions |
| ~$60 | Final measured target |
A move to $60 would imply an XRP valuation in the trillions of dollars, so it should be treated as an extreme long-term scenario rather than an expected next move.
