But Watch Out for a Possible Crash

On the other hand, analyst EGRAG CRYPTO says . This prediction is based on historical data that shows XRP drops when it hits certain resistance points, called “Fork C.” These events have caused big corrections of 64% to 89%, with an average decline of 74%.

EGRAG says XRP needs to close above $4 on the weekly chart before March 10 to avoid a crash. He also says the market could be volatile because of the lunar eclipse on March 14, which has been linked to price dips.
