XRP Consolidates Near $1.40 as Analyst Predicts $18.23 Target
XRP has been trading near $1.40 in September 2026, after a sharp recovery in August that briefly pushed the token to the $1.70 area.
The price has since pulled back and consolidated, leaving traders wondering whether the rebound has enough support to continue.
Crypto analyst Dark Defender pointed out that XRP is mimicking 2014 and 2017 breakout patterns, with a potential target of $18.23, representing a 1,201% rise from current levels.
The CLARITY Act vote in the Senate on September 15 could provide further catalysts for XRP's price action, although some experts are skeptical about the bill's chances.
