Ripple’s XRP is attracting attention after recent technical indicators and chart patterns suggest a potential repeat of its 2017 bull cycle. With the price nearing key resistance levels, market participants are preparing for possible upside movement.

Repeating a Historical Pattern

A chart from analyst ChartNerd compares XRP’s current setup with its 2016–2017 cycle. At that time, the asset formed a double top followed by a wick drop, then entered a sharp upward rally. The same sequence is now appearing again in 2025, with the analyst noting a possible repeat of the breakout phase.

Remarkably, the Stochastic RSI has also reset to similar levels seen before the 2017 rally. The current oversold position on the monthly timeframe matches the low-momentum phase that preceded the previous price surge.

Moreover, on a 3-day timeframe, analyst Steph Is Crypto pointed to a possible bullish MACD crossover forming. The MACD line is curving upward toward the signal line, with the histogram narrowing. These conditions often appear before price reversals or trend shifts.

A similar setup occurred in 2024 before XRP gained over 500%. If the current pattern plays out in the same way, a new rally could follow.

Liquidity and Resistance Zones in Focus

XRP is trading around $2.15 at press time, down over 1% in the past 24 hours and 2% over the last week (per CoinGecko data). The asset holds a market cap of approximately $129 billion, placing it at the #4 position among digital assets. Trading volume stands at over $3.29 billion in the past day.

Analysts are watching the $2.28 level. A breakout here could send XRP toward $2.75. Above that, a major liquidity zone remains untapped near $3. Analyst Steph Is Crypto stated,

Volume spikes during liquidity sweeps suggest increased interest from institutional or traders.

Meanwhile, the spot XRP ETFs are on an impressive 13-day positive streak ever since the first such product, Canary Capital’s XRPC, hit the US markets in mid-November. The Ripple products have also outperformed the BTC, ETH, and SOL counterparties since their inception.

Cashing In On University Patents Means Giving Up On Our Innovation Future

The post Cashing In On University Patents Means Giving Up On Our Innovation Future appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. “It’s a raid on American innovation that would deliver pennies to the Treasury while kneecapping the very engine of our economic and medical progress,” writes Pipes. Getty Images Washington is addicted to taxing success. Now, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is floating a plan to skim half the patent earnings from inventions developed at universities with federal funding. It’s being sold as a way to shore up programs like Social Security. In reality, it’s a raid on American innovation that would deliver pennies to the Treasury while kneecapping the very engine of our economic and medical progress. Yes, taxpayer dollars support early-stage research. But the real payoff comes later—in the jobs created, cures discovered, and industries launched when universities and private industry turn those discoveries into real products. By comparison, the sums at stake in patent licensing are trivial. Universities collectively earn only about $3.6 billion annually in patent income—less than the federal government spends on Social Security in a single day. Even confiscating half would barely register against a $6 trillion federal budget. And yet the damage from such a policy would be anything but trivial. The true return on taxpayer investment isn’t in licensing checks sent to Washington, but in the downstream economic activity that federally supported research unleashes. Thanks to the bipartisan Bayh-Dole Act of 1980, universities and private industry have powerful incentives to translate early-stage discoveries into real-world products. Before Bayh-Dole, the government hoarded patents from federally funded research, and fewer than 5% were ever licensed. Once universities could own and license their own inventions, innovation exploded. The result has been one of the best returns on investment in government history. Since 1996, university research has added nearly $2 trillion to U.S. industrial output, supported 6.5 million jobs, and launched more than 19,000 startups. Those companies pay…
