Familiar Weekly XRP Dominance Pattern Points to Major Reset

XRP dominance is completing a weekly MACD reset that previously preceded major rallies, with the current setup signaling a potential reversal.

The XRP dominance is printing one of the most interesting weekly chart setups seen in months. After nearly a year of steady decline, momentum indicators are approaching levels that have historically marked the beginning of major upside moves.

XRP Weekly MACD Reset Mirrors Previous Events

Currently, the XRP dominance sits at around 3.128%, down 2.5% in July. The trend follows a broader sideways trend, where the asset has lost 18% of its share of the total crypto market cap this year.

Meanwhile, a positive signal is emerging from the MACD on the weekly dominance chart. The indicator is having another full momentum reset, a pattern that has only appeared a handful of times in the past two years.

An accompanying chart shows that XRP has seen the MACD histogram bars move from red to green only three times since late 2024. The first in November 2024 led to a 350% surge in dominance from 1.24% to 5.58%.

The second was in July 2025. The reset aligned with a 16.5% XRP dominance rally to 5.52%. The latest reset occurred in early June when the MACD histogram started to form small green bars, signaling a momentum shift. 

Notably, each previous reset came after an extended period of weakness and preceded a sharp move higher in XRP’s share of the overall cryptocurrency market. The current setup is beginning to resemble those earlier momentum transitions.

First Major Signal After Prolonged Consolidation

An asset often starts a strong expansion after prolonged periods of consolidation and momentum resets. The longer an asset spends correcting and building a reliable pattern, the stronger the subsequent move becomes when buyers return.

That is what makes the current XRP dominance structure noteworthy. The technical indicator has spent months below the zero line and printing red bars. From a technical perspective, this type of extended consolidation can create favorable conditions for a powerful reversal if market sentiment improves.

The weekly MACD is now at levels that previously coincided with major turning points, suggesting the downside momentum that has dominated since July 2025 is beginning to fade.

XRP Dominance Eyes Rebound

If XRP dominance follows its historical behavior, the next move could be upward.

The previous two momentum resets led to significant upside moves that reclaimed a large portion of the preceding decline. The current setup suggests that another momentum shift could develop once the bullish MACD momentum strengthens.

While there are no certainties, the similarities between the current chart structure and previous cycle bottoms are becoming increasingly difficult to overlook.

Should the XRP dominance mirror the first event and rally 350%, it would mean controlling around 14% of the total crypto market cap, significantly impacting its price. However, mirroring the more modest 16.5% increase in July 2025 would take the current market dominance to 3.65%.
