In a new analysis shared on X, the analyst pointed to the XRP/NVIDIA ratio as a deeper signal of how much capital has ignored XRP and crypto while crowding into the AI trade. This setup proposes that XRP may still be in a long compression phase, but the important thing is now whether that relative weakness is starting to reach a turning point.
The XRP Chart Is Still Holding A Larger StructureNotably, XRP’s price action appears to have repeated a sequence inside that larger structure. The chart shows long periods of compression, followed by expansions, then another long cooling phase. This is visible in the 2017 breakout, the 2021 move, and the rally in 2025 that pushed the XRP price above the multi-year compression area before the correction started again.
XRP’s price action has been frustrating, but frustration alone does not invalidate a long-term structure. The more important question is whether the floor is rising with each cycle, which it currently is.
The Signal That Isn’t In The XRP ChartThe unusual part in Cryptollica’s analysis is not about XRP’s USD price at all. It is about the XRP/NVIDIA ratio, which tracks how XRP has performed against one of the most dominant equity trades of the last several years.
The XRP/NVIDIA ratio has not yet confirmed a turn, but it is worth watching. It may be becoming too crowded, and rotation might be coming to forgotten crypto assets. Major moves in crypto have not always begun when confidence was high. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $1.37.
