Since the beginning of December, the XRP price has been<a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/xrp-news/link-xrp-price-ripple-buybacks/" target="_blank" rel="noopener "> range-bound </a>between $0.5762 and $0.6565, lagging behind other altcoins that have seen significant gains due to increased market capital inflows.&nbsp; 
However, recent developments surrounding the potential rejection of<a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/bitcoin-news/bitcoin-price-targets-mvrv-points-to-52000-and-70000-levels-for-btc-expert-suggests/" target="_blank" rel="noopener "> Bitcoin exchange-traded fund</a> (ETF) applications by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) have added to market uncertainty and triggered a 10% drop in the XRP price, pushing it toward the $0.500 level.

Despite these challenges, a <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/xrp-news/crypto-analyst-xrp-price-breakout-heres-when/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">significant</a> catalyst&nbsp;could potentially propel XRP to new heights—the ongoing legal clash between Ripple Labs and the SEC regarding XRP sales.&nbsp; 
Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has <a href="https://x.com/egragcrypto/status/1742432737619837012?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">expressed </a>optimism, stating that a 40X or even 50X boom is possible for XRP, citing the impressive performance of the cryptocurrency in the previous cycle despite the SEC lawsuit. Egrag Crypto stated: 
<blockquote>
 Last cycle, despite the pesky SEC lawsuit, XRP surged almost 20X. This time, with its unparalleled legal regulatory clarity, the potential for a 40X or even 50X boom seems promising
</blockquote> 
By the numbers, according to Egrag Crypto’s analysis, at its cycle low of $0.28, a 40X surge could potentially <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/xrp-news/xrp-price-20000-chad-steingraber-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">push the price </a>to around $11.&nbsp; 
Taking it further, a 50X leap might see XRP soar to around $14. To put this into perspective, Egrag, compared with Ethereum’s (ETH) previous cycle multiplier of 58X, XRP at $0.28 could reach an astounding $16.&nbsp; 
While XRP’s future holds promise, the Ripple vs. SEC lawsuit remains a focal point for investors. Understanding the <a href="https://x.com/flipthechain/status/1736113259655110913?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">key dates</a> in the legal proceedings is crucial. Here is a breakdown of the upcoming milestones:
