In a recent post on X, crypto pundit Ripple Bull Winkle (@RipBillWinkle) offered his predictions for XRP as we approach the end of the year. Known for his bullish stance, he tempered his enthusiasm with an analytical perspective, presenting a comprehensive range of potential price targets for the digital asset.
XRP Performance Into Late 2025
XRP entered November under pressure, struggling to maintain its position above a crucial resistance level at $2.2. This downward trend continued into December, with XRP briefly dipping to $1.80 before finding some buying support. The market managed to avert a significant collapse; however, it also lacked the momentum needed for a strong rebound.
Currently trading at $1.83, XRP resides firmly within a consolidation band. Trading volume has diminished, and daily price candles suggest indecision among traders rather than a definitive trend. Sellers continue to restrict upside movements, keeping prices beneath $2. This pattern often signals potential for a significant price shift, but for now, XRP’s trajectory remains uncertain.
XRP chart is ultra-simple:
Bottom likely: $1.40 – $1.75
Oh-sh*t wick: $1.10 – $1.30
Chop zone: $1.80 – $2.40
Bull breakout: $3.60 – $4.20
Stretch cycle: $6.50 – $8.00
That is what we are looking at

The Levels To Watch For
Ripple Bull Winkle emphasized a likely bottom for XRP between $1.40 and $1.75. Below that range, he identified what he termed the “Oh-sh*t wick” zone, located between $1.10 and $1.30. These levels indicate that while a downside risk persists, it would require a sharp liquidation event to break through those supports.
According to his analysis, the $1.80 to $2.40 range has become a “chop zone”, reflecting XRP’s recent price behavior. For several weeks, XRP has oscillated within this band, frustrating traders on both sides of the market.

Some analysts view this phase as the calm before a potential storm of buying activity. A decisive breakout from this consolidation range would likely shape XRP’s price direction as we enter 2026.
Bullish Targets Still on the Table
While acknowledging the potential for bearish developments, Ripple Bull Winkle also delineated aggressive bullish targets. He identified a breakout range between $3.60 and $4.20, which would usher XRP into a new all-time high territory. Furthermore, he highlighted a stretch cycle from $6.50 to $8, indicating that long-term bullish potential may still exist if market conditions improve.
Recent price action for XRP reflects uncertainty rather than an outright collapse. Ripple Bull Winkle’s roadmap embodies this reality, suggesting that although further decline is possible if support falters, there’s also potential for significant gains should buying momentum return. Additionally, a growing number of analysts are expressing optimism about the asset’s future.
