According to Dark Defender, a notable cryptocurrency expert, XRP is currently exploring a low price threshold of $1.87. However, per the expert, XRP is already paving its own price path, charting its way towards $3.66. Dark Defender had earlier predicted this price threshold for XRP in February 2024, stating how XRP will ultimately hit $3.66 in due time.

In addition to this, Dark Defender adds how XRP may ultimately ride the wave 4 narrative, which could soon help stabilize its price in the near future.

“Fear Not. XRP has completed its Wave 4 correction… If market makers try to shake the tree, so be it. I’m not here to panic. I’m here to accumulate. In the end, it won’t be the temporary price that matters—it will be how much XRP you hold when the dust settles.”

In addition to this, XRP ETFs have also been gaining steady speed, with capital inflows towards XRP increasing day by day. This also proves how the markets are supportive of XRP, which could flip the bullish phase for the asset soon in the near future.

“Smart money is flowing into #XRP every day.This is the Snowball! All assets will be tokenized on #XRPL. Get ready; prepare yourself for the Financial Reset. The only way out is XRP.”
