- XRP trades just below a 3,000-day resistance line against BTC, with breakout momentum steadily building beneath the trendline.
- Technical structure shows repeated tests of resistance since 2017, suggesting weakening sell-side pressure and growing breakout probability.
- A decisive move above this level could realign market structure and set XRP up for a potential BTC-pair macro bull cycle.
XRP is approaching a crucial technical level on its Bitcoin trading pair, with bulls anticipating a breakout above a 3,000-day resistance. The setup signals what could be the start of a long-anticipated upside phase if price confirms above the trendline.
XRP Faces Multi-Year Resistance on BTC Pair
The XRP/BTC chart reveals a descending resistance line stretching back more than 3,000 days. It has rejected every breakout attempt since 2017.
As of writing it is priced at 0.00002649 BTC, XRP is again testing this level. The setup was shared by @GalaxyBTC, who described it as “chilling” under resistance, awaiting a decisive move.
This trendline has historically acted as a firm rejection zone. Each attempt has reversed sharply, keeping XRP locked in long-term relative underperformance.
Repeated Tests Suggest Breakout Tension Is Building
The repeated pressure on the resistance line without a major pullback could indicate declining sell-side strength. This often precedes structural shifts.
A breakout above this zone, especially on strong volume, would signal the start of a macro shift in XRP’s BTC trend. It would also indicate renewed strength relative to Bitcoin, a signal that could trigger broader altcoin inflows.
Technical objectives should reach the 0.00004000 BTC area in the case of the breakout. The long term support levels maintain a strong position between 0.00000700 and 0.00001200 BTC.
XRP Price Action Remains Weak on USD Pair
Despite the bullish BTC-pair setup, XRP trades at $3.17 against the dollar, with a 24-hour drop of 2.89% and weekly loss of 8.70%.
While the USD chart shows weakness, the BTC-pair structure suggests accumulation is underway. A breakout here could change broader sentiment fast.
With altcoins still searching for leadership, a confirmed move above trendline resistance would place XRP in a key rotation position.
