Analyst Shares Exact Timeframe to Sell XRP and Other Cryptos
-
XRP $ 2.37 (-1.99%) 
Real Vision CEO Raoul Pal says crypto has entered the explosive โBanana Zone,โ with XRP set to benefit ahead of a 2025 market peak.
XRP price dips after a judge rejects Ripple-SEC penalty deal; downside risk remains unless the motion is properly refiled.
Crypto markets have always been known for their ups and downs, but according to Real Vision CEO and investor Raoul Pal, we might be entering one of the most exciting phases yet โ and XRP could be a big part of it.
Whatโs the โBanana Zoneโ?
Raoul Pal describes something called the โBanana Zone.โ Itโs a fun term for the final, most explosive part of the crypto bull market โ the period when prices start shooting up dramatically. This usually lasts for a year to a year and a half, and according to Pal, we officially entered this zone back in September 2024.
Since then, the market saw a big rally, followed by some correction, but thatโs normal for crypto cycles. Now, as liquidity (or money in the market) starts increasing again, things are expected to heat up rapidly towards the end of 2025.
When Is He Selling?
Interestingly, Raoul Pal already has a plan for when heโs going to sell most of his crypto holdings โ including XRP, Bitcoin, and other altcoins. Based on historical cycles and liquidity patterns, he believes the market will hit its peak sometime in late 2025.
This final stage of the bull market typically sees all-time highs, with coins like XRP potentially soaring beyond current expectations. โThis is the biggest macro trade of our lifetimes,โ Pal said. โCrypto can go from a $3 trillion asset class to $100 trillion in 10 years. Weโre only 3% of the way there.โ
XRP Price Prediction
XRPโs price fell after a U.S. judge rejected a deal between Ripple and the SEC. The deal would have reduced Rippleโs penalty from $150 million to $50 million, but the judge said it was filed the wrong way. Because of this, XRP dropped below the key support level of $2.41. It may now fall to $2.34 or even $2.26 if no good news comes soon.
Ripple might still refile the request properly, which could help XRP recover. But for now, the news is seen as bearish for the price.
