Ripple trades at $1.82, much lower than the year-to-date high of $3.4, and near its lowest swing since December last year. This article assesses why the coin is on the verge of a big crash after Ray Dalio warned of a once-in-a-lifetime collapse of the economic order.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Ray Dalio Warns of an Economic Collapse<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dalio, the founder of the biggest hedge fund globally, has warned that the world is going through critical changes that could affect the economic and political order. He cited the surging global debt, with the US sitting on $36.7T in public debt and a growing budget deficit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2025-04-09\/ray-dalio-says-once-in-lifetime-major-breakdown-is-occurring?srnd=homepage-americas\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dalio also warned<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that the economic collapse could lead to a sharp decline in the stock market, which would hurt cryptocurrencies like XRP. Historically, stocks and crypto have a close correlation because they are widely seen as risky assets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His statement comes as global stocks crashed. Futures tied to the Dow Jones and Nasdaq 100 indices plunged by over 1% on Wednesday. This means that US investors have lost at least $10T in the last few days. The crypto market has also crashed, with the industry shedding over $1.5 trillion in value.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Still, on the positive side, XRP\u2019s utility is expected to grow. Ripple Labs is seeking to<\/span><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/markets\/will-xrp-price-hit-1000-if-it-replaces-swift-after-trumps-endorsement\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> replace the SWIFT network<\/span><\/a><b>, <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and its <\/span><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/xrp-news-ripple-to-acquire-prime-broker-hidden-road-for-1-25-billion\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">acquisition of Hidden Road<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">will increase its usage in the long term. The SEC is also considering approving over 10 spot XRP ETFs later this year.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>XRP Price Technical Analysis: H&#038;S Pattern is a Big Risk<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 1D chart points to a steeper Ripple price plunge in the next few days. The most bearish factor is that it has formed a <\/span><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/education\/head-and-shoulder-pattern-how-to-identify-it-on-a-crypto-chart\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">head and shoulders chart pattern<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which analysts believe is a highly accurate continuation sign. In this case, the head is at $3.43, while the shoulders are at about $3.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">XRP price has now plunged below the neckline of this pattern at $1.9195, which coincided with the 50% Fibonacci Retracement point. It has also formed a death cross pattern, another risky sign that happens when a longer-term, say 200, and a shorter-term, say 50, moving averages cross each other. Ripple has also crashed below the Ichimoku cloud indicator.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_247957\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-247957\" style=\"width: 3574px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-247957\" src=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/XRP-price-5.png\" alt=\"XRP price chart\" width=\"3574\" height=\"1986\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/XRP-price-5.png 3574w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/XRP-price-5-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/XRP-price-5-1224x680.png 1224w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/XRP-price-5-768x427.png 768w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/XRP-price-5-1536x854.png 1536w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/XRP-price-5-2048x1138.png 2048w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/XRP-price-5-150x83.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 3574px) 100vw, 3574px\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-247957\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">XRP price chart<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>XRP Token Price Targets<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best way to get the next target for the XRP price is to measure the longest distance of the H&#038;S pattern. In this case, it has a depth of about 43%. After that, you measure the same distance from the neckline. This measurement brings the next target at $1.062, which is slightly above the 78.6% retracement level.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, the bearish Ripple outlook will become invalid if the coin rises above the 38.2% retracement at $2.20.<\/span><\/p>\n<section class=\"accordion-content mt-4\" id=\"faq\">\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 h3 fw7\">Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)<\/h2>\n<div class=\"accordion-item\">\n<div class=\"faq-item-content\" style=\"\">\n<p>\n                            \tWhile XRP has solid fundamentals, the risk is that it has formed a head and shoulders pattern and moved below the Ichimoku cloud indicator, pointing to more downside. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"accordion-item\">\n<div class=\"faq-item-content\" style=\"\">\n<p>\n                            \tDalio, a billionaire hedge fund manager, has warned that the economy and the political collapse could happen because of the rising debt and protectionist policies.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"accordion-item\">\n<div class=\"faq-item-content\" style=\"\">\n<p>\n                            \tThe most logical forecast is where it crashes to $1 because it has formed a head and shoulders chart pattern on the daily chart.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p>                                <!-- \n\n<div class=\"desktopPostEnd d-on\"><\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<div class=\"m-on mobiless\">\n<div id=\"social-section-new\">\n<p>\u2713 Share:<\/p>\n<p>                                  <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"social-text_new wp_new\" href=\"https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send?text=https:\/\/coingape.com\/markets\/xrp-price-on-the-verge-of-big-crash-as-ray-dalio-warns-of-an-economic-collapse\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"display: block\">  <i class=\"fa fa-whatsapp\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n                                <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"social-text_new tw_new_logo\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=https:\/\/coingape.com\/markets\/xrp-price-on-the-verge-of-big-crash-as-ray-dalio-warns-of-an-economic-collapse\/\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" class=\"mb-1\" alt=\"coingape\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/coingape-2.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/14164721\/x-logo.png\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/coingape-2.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/14164721\/x-logo.png\" class=\"mb-1\" alt=\"coingape\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\"\/><\/noscript><br \/>\n<\/a>\n                                <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"authorBoxnew newauthordesign\">\n<div class=\"author_Ndata d-flex align-items-center mb-2\">\n<div class=\"author_Image\">\n                                           <img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/9c00a0d8f607df1fb2a16654cfb39a67?s=400&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g 2x\" class=\"avatar avatar-200 photo\" height=\"200\" width=\"200\" decoding=\"async\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/9c00a0d8f607df1fb2a16654cfb39a67?s=200&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/9c00a0d8f607df1fb2a16654cfb39a67?s=200&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/9c00a0d8f607df1fb2a16654cfb39a67?s=400&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g 2x\" class=\"avatar avatar-200 photo\" height=\"200\" width=\"200\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/noscript>                                  <\/div>\n<p>crispus  <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Crispus is a seasoned Financial Analyst at CoinGape with over 12 years of experience.
