However, the analyst stressed that the signal does not confirm a reversal.#XRP – THE MACRO BOTTOM IS SIGNALING :$XRP on the monthly timeframe is starting to show characteristics of a potential bear-market bottom. But remember: SIGNAL ≠ CONFIRMATION.Here’s my roadmap:$1.00 → Bottoming Battlefield $XRP must defend this region.… pic.twitter.com/5MXAXzB4GS— EGRAG CRYPTO (@egragcrypto) August 8, 2026The $1.00 level remains central to that outlook. EGRAG Crypto said XRP needs to defend the area, while sustained monthly acceptance below it could expose $0.70 to $0.80.The current price leaves XRP only slightly above that threshold. CoinGecko data puts XRP at $1.04, with daily trading volume reaching $622.06 million.XRP gained 0.59% over 24 hours, according to CoinGecko, but the token remains down 3.87% over the week. The figures show continued short-term weakness despite the latest daily gain.EGRAG Crypto also identified $1.35 as the first major structural test. A monthly close above that level could indicate that bearish control has weakened.The analyst placed the next major threshold at $1.80 to $1.82. A decisive monthly close above that range would mark a broader change in the macro structure.XRP price on CoinGeckoXRP Technical Outlook Points to Lower Accumulation ZoneCrypto Patel offered a more defensive outlook for XRP’s current price structure. The analyst pointed to a macro accumulation zone between $0.85 and $0.65.Patel said XRP had already declined 72% from its cycle top.

That difference shows how the two analysts interpret the token’s current market structure.Patel’s longer-term targets include $3, $5, $7 and above $10. However, the analyst said the trend remains bearish in the short term and would update the stop-loss after reversal confirmation.For EGRAG Crypto, XRP needs to hold $1.00, reclaim $1.35, and then break $1.80. That sequence would provide progressively stronger confirmation of a macro bullish regime.The post XRP Bottom Signal Emerges, But $1.35 and $1.80 Hold the Key appeared first on Blockonomi.
