An analysis suggests that XRP is preparing for a historic surge based on a long-term technical pattern that has been ongoing for nine years.

According to U.Today, a cryptocurrency specialized media outlet, on April 26 (local time), renowned chartist EGRAG Crypto presented a roadmap in a recent analysis, predicting that XRP's price will rise to the $9 to $13 range in the long term. This forecast is based on an analysis of the "Bifrost Bridge," a massive upward channel formed since 2014.

The Bifrost Bridge is considered a key indicator that has guided XRP's price movement for over a decade. Currently, XRP is confirming strong support within this channel and attempting a breakout to the upside. EGRAG Crypto predicted that the 9-year accumulation cycle is nearing its end, and an explosive price expansion will occur soon. The rebound from the bottom of the channel shows a very similar pattern to past surge events.

The recent downward deviation from a minor descending triangle pattern is interpreted not as a trend failure but as a move to secure liquidity. EGRAG Crypto diagnosed that, contrary to market expectations, this decline is a strategic phase aimed at absorbing downside liquidity to maximize upward momentum. The fact that the price quickly returned to the channel after breaking out of the descending triangle supports this analysis. As institutional investors' buying interest strengthens, downward pressure is gradually being offset.

According to the 2026 roadmap, XRP will go through several stages of price increases. If it breaks through the major resistance level around $1.80, it is highly likely to reach $5 and ultimately the $13 mark. Institutional tailwinds, such as the resolution of the legal dispute between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the passage of cryptocurrency market structure legislation in the U.S., are expected to act as catalysts for price appreciation. The market has already completed its technical preparations.

Experts are focusing on XRP's potential as a long-term store of value. The massive technical structure spanning nine years suggests strong fundamentals beyond mere speculative demand. As real-world use cases for its global payment network increase, asset revaluation is also expected to accelerate. Investors are focusing on the long-term price roadmap rather than short-term volatility and are closely monitoring market changes.
