XRP (XRP-USD) is poised to enter a rapid repricing phase, with analyst Chad Steingraber predicting the token could move “from $2 to $10” in under a year. This aggressive forecast for a 400% rally is being strongly supported by overwhelming institutional interest in the newly launched spot XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

The new investment products, which debuted in November, have quickly absorbed over 506 million XRP, tokens worth more than $944 million, since their launch. This inflow means that XRP ETFs now hold approximately 0.74% of all circulating XRP in less than a month, a remarkable rate of accumulation. Steingraber noted that this absorption rate builds a powerful case for a price acceleration toward the $10 mark in 2026.
ETF Momentum Mirrors Bitcoin’s Explosive Gains
The demand for XRP is also being driven by its inclusion in major multi-asset funds. For instance, XRP is currently a 5% component of the newly launched Bitwise Crypto 10 Fund ETF (BITW), which opened with more than $1.25 billion in assets.
Analyst Steingraber drew a direct comparison to the market’s previous major cycle catalyst. Given that Bitcoin (BTC-USD) doubled within two years of its own US ETF debut, the case is strengthened that XRP has substantial room to play catch-up. He confirmed that the total absorption across all funds is now 506,067,267 XRP since the launch.
Technical Patterns Align for $14–$15 XRP Price Targets
The charts are aligning with the bullish fundamental thesis, showing strong technical setups that reinforce the high price targets. On the two-week chart, XRP is entering the breakout phase of its multi-month symmetrical triangle pattern. This structure is a continuation pattern that typically follows long periods of consolidation and points toward a strong trend continuation. The measured move from this breakout projects an upside target of $14–$15 in the forthcoming months.
Furthermore, a second, high-time-frame setup is also visible. XRP appears to have carved out a bull flag. This is a classic continuation pattern that develops after a strong initial rally, followed by a downward-sloping consolidation channel. The projected move from this structure, once confirmed, also points toward the $14–$15 region, aligning perfectly with the triangle’s target.
The confluence of massive institutional token absorption and these two powerful chart formations suggests that price discovery above $10 is increasingly likely for 2026.
At the time of writing, XRP is sitting at $2.0722.
