During this time, market expert Egrag Crypto<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/egragcrypto\/status\/1934866714014945681\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"> emphasizes<\/a> the importance of patience as all eyes turn to the upcoming<a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ripple-vs-sec-lawyer-delayed-case-resolution\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \"> Ripple-SEC legal update<\/a> in August. With this long-running court battle still hanging over XRP, the outcome of the legal case could significantly impact the cryptocurrency\u2019s next big move.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>XRP Tests Key Resistance Before Next Big Push<\/h2>\n<p>CoinMarketCap data shows that XRP is consolidating just below the critical $2 psychological level after a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/xrp-price-slides-2-220\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">volatile price rejection<\/a>, which Egrag Crypto described as a \u201cnasty candle\u201d on the 12-hour chart. Over the past few weeks, the token has been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/xrp-price-momentum-spikes-2-25\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">gradually building momentum<\/a>, inching closer toward a breakout above a long-term descending trendline that could signal a return of its <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/last-chance-to-your-sell-xrp\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">previous bullish trend<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The chart shows that the price had attempted to escape this persistent downtrend marked by a yellow resistance line within a wedge pattern. However, the move<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/xrp-price-bounces-back-2-38\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"> faced immediate resistance<\/a> near $2.23, where the cryptocurrency\u2019s price was swiftly pushed back, forming a large upper wick that confirmed<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/xrp-news\/massive-xrp-selling-pressure-stalling-price-action\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"> heavy selling pressure<\/a> or profit-taking activity at higher levels.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-507010\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/XRP-chart-from-Egrag-Crypto-1.jpg?w=512&amp;resize=512%2C208\" alt=\"XRP\" width=\"512\" height=\"208\"><\/p>\n<p>Despite this rejection, Egrag Crypto stressed the need for patience during this crucial market phase, especially with the legal battles between Ripple and the SEC still ongoing. While XRP continues to hover around the $2 support zone, the overall chart still shows <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/xrp-price-takes-a-breather-2-25\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">a bullish setup forming<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Potential targets are clearly mapped at $2.2 and $2.32 if the altcoin can reclaim and sustain levels above the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/xrp-flashes-descending-trendline\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">descending trendline<\/a>. A downside retest is also possible near the $1.90 region, which has been marked as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/xrp-points-to-5-target\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">key accumulation zone<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Ripple-SEC Delay Puts XRP Breakout On Ice<\/h2>\n<p>Based on Egrag Crypto\u2019s analysis, the sudden rejection of XRP\u2019s price occurred in tandem with <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/no-ruling-ripple-sec-just-made-their-next-move\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">new developments in the ongoing legal battle <\/a>between Ripple and the US SEC. A joint filing submitted to the Second Circuit Court by Ripple and the regulator <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/xrp-lawsuit-ripple-sec-renew-joint-push-ruling\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">requested<\/a> a pause in the appeal process, pending a decision from the district court on a motion for an indicative ruling. Notably, this decision has now been delayed until August 2025.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This delay adds a layer of uncertainty that could influence short-term <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/the-truth-about-xrp\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">market sentiment<\/a>. Egrag Crypto highlights that just as XRP was attempting a breakout, legal headlines shifted the narrative, possibly prompting traders to step back. The analyst noted that this pause in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/ripple-vs-sec-battle-far-from-over-as-regulator-opposes-courts-decision\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">overdue court battle<\/a> could give institutional players more time to prepare and potentially step in around the $2 level.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With August now set as a critical point in the ongoing legal battle, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/xrp-news\/still-sleeping-on-xrp-8-breakout-just-waiting\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">XRP\u2019s breakout potential<\/a> may remain on ice for now. Until a ruling is issued, the cryptocurrency\u2019s price action is likely to stay in a holding pattern, with the market caught in between waiting for technical breakout confirmations and clarity from the courtroom about a <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/sec-vs-ripple-legal-battle-approaching-end\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">resolution in the Ripple-SEC case<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/aYUiD7rY\/\" alt=\"XRP\" width=\"2108\" height=\"1502\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>XRP is currently holding steady around the $2 level, but crypto analysts suggest that traders hoping for a quick breakout may need to wait a little longer.
