XRP Builds Power for Takeoff—EGRAG Maps Trend Amid Legal Delay

• EGRAG highlights XRP’s bullish structure, which is similar to the 2017 breakout.
• SEC and court approvals still pending despite Ripple’s $50M settlement.

XRP is showing signs of renewed strength, holding a steady pattern of higher lows on the chart. EGRAG CRYPTO’s latest analysis points to XRP entering what it terms the “Full Ignition Stage.” 

EGRAG analysis shows that XRP mirrors a pattern seen between 2014 and 2017, a stretch that preceded a sharp upward breakout. Since 2022, XRP has maintained higher lows (HL), forming a steadily ascending trendline. Analysts believe this structural setup indicates rising bullish pressure.

On the current chart, trendlines and price bands suggest XRP may be nearing a breakout. The projected trajectory is highlighted in yellow and red, showing possible targets if momentum sustains.

 A green zone marks the upper price target, signaling the expected climax of the move. The analysis indicates XRP must continue its HL structure to remain on course for the next macro-level breakout.

Ripple vs SEC: Legal Status Still Awaiting Final Approval

Ripple’s long legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has seen major developments, but it is not officially over. The case began in 2020, when the SEC accused Ripple of selling $1.3 billion worth of XRP in unregistered securities transactions. A 2023 court ruling largely favored Ripple, but the SEC later filed an appeal.

In March 2025, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse announced the SEC would drop the appeal, calling it a “long overdue surrender.” XRP jumped 14% on that news. Ripple also confirmed its penalty was reduced from $125 million to $50 million, with the remainder returned from escrow.

On April 10, both parties filed motions to suspend appeals. However, final approval from SEC commissioners and the district court is still pending. Without this ruling, the case remains open. 

At the time of writing, XRP is currently priced at $2.18, down 0.59% over the last 24 hours, as investors await official closure and a clearer regulatory status.
