In a new video analysis published on May 28, the seasoned trader warned that a drop toward the $2.13 level appears increasingly likely, but emphasized that such a move fits within a larger bullish Elliott Wave structure and would not invalidate the macro setup.<\/p>\n<h2>XRP Set To Plunge Before Exploding Higher?<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cI said $2.71 was on deck\u2014and we hit $2.66,\u201d Quantum Ascent recalled, referencing a prediction made earlier in May. \u201cI was five cents off. But now, it looks like we\u2019re in a bit of a correction. I\u2019m a little thrown off by the wave count here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The confusion, he explained, stems from the structure of what appears to be a completed five-wave move. While the third wave in an Elliott Wave pattern is typically the longest, the analyst noted inconsistencies in the current formation that warrant a deeper technical review. Still, the overall structure\u2014particularly on the weekly chart\u2014remains intact.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-761063\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Screenshot-2025-05-29-085004.png?resize=1024%2C492\" alt=\"XRP price analysis\" width=\"1024\" height=\"492\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can see one-two-three-four-five on the weekly,\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s printing a macro one-two. And the third wave should get us going here out of this area.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zooming into the 12-hour and daily timeframes, Quantum Ascent pointed to an ABC corrective pattern now likely unfolding, with the C wave projected to equal the A wave in length. According to his measurement, this points to a downside target of $2.12\u2013$2.13, which aligns with the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level drawn from the previous impulse wave and also coincides with the fourth wave of the prior move\u2014often a zone of strong support.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor me, that looks really good as a spot for us to kind of chill out. Maybe consolidate sideways a little bit,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I do expect the next move to be up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He was adamant that a breakdown below $2.13 would not constitute a structural failure: \u201cI find it really hard to think XRP\u2019s gonna go below $2 here on this move. It could technically\u2014and still nothing would be broken. We\u2019re still just looking for a one-two, and the two could come down here if it wanted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Quantum Ascent also highlighted XRP\u2019s comparative strength relative to the broader crypto market, noting that it had recently set a higher high earlier than most altcoins. \u201cStructurally on the larger time frame, XRP is holding up a lot stronger than the rest of the market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The analyst, who disclosed that he originally bought XRP around $0.50 and sold a large portion above $3, said he remains long-term bullish and continues to hold XRP as a core part of his portfolio. \u201cThis thing has been good to me,\u201d he said. \u201cAgain, I see a drop down temporarily\u2014but it\u2019s just that. It\u2019s temporary.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For now, all eyes remain on the $2.13 level. If XRP holds that zone and confirms support, Quantum Ascent believes a new bullish wave 4 could soon begin\u2014one that takes the token above the $2.80 mark.<\/p>\n<p>At press time, XRP traded at $2.29.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-761066\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/XRPUSDT_2025-05-29_11-26-26.png?resize=1024%2C454\" alt=\"XRP price\" width=\"1024\" height=\"454\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>XRP may be on the verge of a major upside breakout\u2014but only after what crypto analyst Quantum Ascent describes as a necessary and temporary correction.
