Crypto analyst Dark Defender recently provided a detailed update on XRP’s price movements, addressing the recent correction and the pathway to higher targets. In a statement shared on Twitter, Dark Defender acknowledged a mistake in communication regarding the possibility of a downside break, emphasizing that corrections are a natural part of market behavior and not a cause for panic. Dark Defender explained that the recent move toward the $2.81 level aligns with an expanded C Wave scenario. This possibility was highlighted in a prior analysis shared five days earlier on his Patreon. While the original expectation was for XRP to move to $3.62 following a regular C Wave correction, the expanded C Wave scenario has not altered the ultimate price targets. According to Dark Defender, XRP remains on track for its next major milestone, despite interim fluctuations. We expected a break in hours, and it arrived.

He pointed out that XRP had formed a 5-wave structure, with the correction wave (C Wave) potentially touching the $2.8160 level before resuming its upward trajectory. The Fibonacci level of $3.62 remains a key target, reflecting strong technical resistance. The chart analysis highlighted in the post shows an ABC correction in orange, which concluded before XRP moved into its current wave structure. Dark Defender noted that corrections like these are part of the broader market cycle and essential for sustained price growth.
