Hidden Asset Shows 29-Day Lead
According to crypto analyst Charting Guy, he had shared charts comparing XRP with an unnamed asset that seemed to lead XRP’s price by 29 days. According to his findings, this correlation has been in sync with every major pivot for XRP throughout 2025.
From the first chart, the movements of the leading asset are shifted by 29 days, showing how peaks and retracements align with turning points of XRP itself. The second chart applies the lag directly and yields a projection suggesting that in October, XRP may climb past $4.
According to the analyst, the sharp rise of the leading asset on the 19th of September should tie in with the 18th of October, when the SEC decides on the Grayscale XRP ETF.
His third chart overlays the asset’s fractal pattern onto XRP’s chart, reinforcing the suggestion that XRP continues to mirror the same structure on a delay.
there is a certain asset leading $XRP by a month.. and has called every single major pivot this year.. it had a crazy pop on the 19th and this aligns EXACTLY with 10/18/25, the day the $XRP spot ETF’s get approved.
here’s the 29 day offset.

Whale Accumulation on the Rise
Analyst Ali reported that whales holding between 10 million and 100 million XRP added 120 million tokens in the last 72 hours. His chart shows these wallets now control around 7.91 billion XRP.
This increase came while XRP’s price moved between $2.75 and $3.10, suggesting accumulation during a consolidation phase.
Historically, similar periods of buying by large holders have supported price floors and created conditions for later rallies.
Breakout on the Quarterly Chart
Analyst Mikybull pointed to XRP’s performance on the quarterly timeframe. He noted that XRP has turned green on the chart for the first time since 2017, closing above long-term resistance near $1.60–$1.80.
At that time, the breakout above resistance was followed by a rapid rally to new highs. Mikybull suggested the current structure could follow a similar path, stating:
“$XRP to $5-$15.”
His chart shows the former resistance area now acting as support, with a green vertical measure suggesting room for further expansion.
ETF Deadlines Ahead
As previously reported by CryptoPotato, the SEC is set to rule on six XRP ETF applications between October 18 and November 14. Proposals come from firms including Grayscale, 21Shares, Bitwise, Canary Capital, WisdomTree, and Franklin Templeton.
With whale buying, a long-term breakout in play, and ETF deadlines approaching, XRP is entering October under close watch from traders and institutions.
