XRP Weekly Chart Signals Tight Consolidation Ahead of Wave 3 Target

2025/12/09 14:38
  • XRP holds steady but remains stuck in a long consolidation zone on the weekly chart.
  • Momentum indicators show weakened demand and continued sell-side pressure.
  • Traders set targets toward Wave 3 if major resistance barriers at $2.18 and $2.30 are broken.

XRP spent another week locked inside a tight trading band, with price circling around $2.08 and showing no strong movement in either direction. Expert TARA outlined a new wave structure that could define XRP’s path through 2025.

She set her next target for Wave 3 at $2.73, explaining that the asset must first clear two critical resistance lines at $2.18 and $2.30. These levels have repeatedly stalled upward attempts, and any clean break above them would mark the start of a stronger impulse move.

TARA added that support at $2.07 remains firm, but another retest cannot be ruled out. She expects Wave 4 and Wave 5 targets to shift slightly once Wave 3 is confirmed. 

Her outlook reflects a broader market view that XRP is still waiting for the right spark before confirming a new phase of upward momentum.

Weekly Chart Signals Lingering Pressure From Sellers

The weekly chart indicates that XRP has been in a state of prolonged consolidation. The price of XRP remains below a cluster of Fibonacci levels marked during the previous price action.

This marks the 0.618, 1.0, and 1.618 levels. This indicates that this particular asset requires more buying pressure to witness any price increase.

The Relative Strength Index brings a cautionary signal. This tool stands at about 41, which is lower than 50. This illustrates that the current players are still not in control. This tool has been decreasing steadily since the middle of this year, when a local peak was achieved.

This indicates a decline in demand. The signal line for this tool stands at 47.70. This remains above the reading. This indicates that bear pressure remains dominant in this phase.

XRP Struggles Below the $3 Barrier on Higher Timeframes

The MACD remains bearish for the weekly chart. The MACD line continues to be around -0.105, with a sizable negative gap when compared to the signal line of about -0.007.

The red histogram bars have again begun to extend after temporarily slowing down towards the end of summer. This indicates that buying momentum continues to reduce. There are no bullish crossovers that signal a turn in the uptrend.

XRP remains below $3 levels, which form a strong psychological level and correspond to major Fibonacci extension levels. Unless a strong closing pattern emerges above this region, any advancement towards a higher level would face rejection.

The zone between $1.70 and $1.90 remains a strong region of accumulation for support. However, until a strong catalyst emerges, XRP remains stable but needs a strong impetus to break towards higher resistance levels.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
