Historically, June has not been a good month for XRP investors, with an average return of -8.49% over the past 11 years; this month is often marked by selling pressure and pessimistic sentiment. However, according to renowned cryptocurrency analyst Cekky Crypto, this June could break the trend.
According to top cryptocurrency analyst Cekky Crypto, XRP may be on the verge of a major breakout, and June could be a turning point. He highlights three explosive events that could cause XRP to surge beyond its long-held range.
Why will XRP's price surge in June?
First is the SEC's decision on Franklin Templeton's Spot XRP ETF, expected on June 17. If approved, it would allow institutional investors and retail traders to buy real XRP through traditional brokerage apps — no need for a cryptocurrency wallet. Cekky compares this moment to the launch of the Bitcoin ETF, which pushed BTC past the $100,000 mark in early 2024.
The second key event is the FOMC meeting of the Federal Reserve on June 17–18. If the Fed finally cuts interest rates, even by 25bps, this could trigger a wave of liquidity into risk assets like altcoins. Historically, rate cuts have spurred bullish runs across tech stocks and cryptocurrencies, and Cekky believes that XRP could be a big winner.
The third major catalyst is the XRPL Apex developer summit, taking place from June 10 to 12 in Singapore. Ripple is expected to announce game-changing updates for the XRP Ledger — including AI-supported payments, cross-chain swaps, tokenized real-world assets, and new DeFi tools. These upgrades could unlock real utility and drive adoption.
Whale accumulation of XRP signals a major move
Cekky also points out hidden accumulation near the $1.90 level, indicating that whales are preparing for a move. Although he acknowledges the risks — including ETF delays or hawkish Fed actions — he emphasizes that the risk-reward is heavily skewed in favor of the bulls.
With all three events converging, Cekky warns that this could be the. 'calm before the XRP storm.' What is his strategy? Accumulate in the $1.90–$2.10 range, allowing room for volatility and preparing for a potential 5x move if the right catalysts emerge.
