Crypto Analyst Shares Channel Map That Predicts XRP Price Is Headed To $200

XRP’s long-term price action was recently examined by crypto analyst EGRAG CRYPTO, who shared a technical framework that shows the cryptocurrency on a macro move to $200. In his post, the analyst outlined a channel-based structure that tracks XRP’s behavior across multiple cycles and highlights how its price has always followed the same diagonal paths over time. Based on where the altcoin currently sits within that structure, the analysis outlines a range of possible outcomes, including triple-digit price levels under specific scenarios.

Logic Behind Monthly Channel Structure

XRP has been subjected to multiple analyses projecting prices far above the $100 level. Notably, the technical analysis in question is built around multiple diagonal channels that act as long-term support and resistance. These diagonal channels encompass XRP’s price action on the monthly candlestick timeframe chart and go as far back as 2014. 

According to the analyst, this framework behaves similarly to a logarithmic regression channel, meaning price expansion and contraction follow geometric symmetry rather than linear movement. XRP has respected these channels for over a decade, moving from lower bounds during accumulation phases to upper bounds during rallies and expansions.

The reference point is in late 2017 / early 2018, when XRP’s price rally tagged the upper boundary of this channel before extending well beyond it. That move, measured at roughly a 677% overshoot from the channel ceiling, is used as the template for projecting future extensions.

XRP’s Price Targets And The $200 Scenario

According to the analyst, current cycle levels on the monthly candlesticks align perfectly with the 2017 geometry. The most debated part of the analysis is the projection toward $200, which EGRAG CRYPTO categorizes as a black swan tail scenario. 

This outcome relies on XRP replicating the full macro extension seen in 2017, where the price didn’t just reach the upper channel but dramatically exceeded it. When that same percentage extension is applied to the current structure, the projection lands near the $200 mark.

However, the extreme $200 price target is not the base case. The analysis positions the $200 level as an extreme endpoint within a much broader and more detailed technical roadmap with intermediate price targets where XRP might face resistance.

Using the channel geometry, the analysis breaks XRP’s potential path into layered scenarios. The first zone is around $4.5, corresponding to a clean interaction with the upper channel boundary. EGRAG CRYPTO describes this level as a high-conviction structural area with the highest probability outcome of 80% to 90%.

The next channel projection is a move to $10. This level depends on continued expansion within the same geometric framework and XRP has only a 60% to 75% chance of reaching this level. Further up, the analyst projected $27 as the cycle peak scenario, which is situated around the peak of the channel structure. The probability of reaching this price target is between 50% and 55%.

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…
