'Give it Some Time': Why Author of 700% XRP Forecast Sees Bitcoin in a Healthy Reset Phase

Amid tense anticipation ahead of the FOMC meeting and Q1 2026 GDP data, Bitcoin (BTC) is consolidating in the $76,300-$77,750 range. Against this backdrop, a comment from trader DonAlt has drawn particular attention - a figure whose XRP forecasts in 2024-2025 resulted in a sevenfold increase.

This time, instead of calling for new "rockets", the expert trader offers the market a dose of cold-blooded patience.

Why Bitcoin's best move right now is doing nothing

DonAlt, whose structural analysis of XRP allowed him to predict the rally to $3.66, now assesses Bitcoin's condition as "kind of alright". Despite recent volatility, he notes that BTC showed a solid reaction at support levels.

Resistance from here looks "so-so", the trader sums up briefly - the market may simply need more time. His stance contrasts with the broader tension ahead of the FOMC meeting, where a rate hold is expected with 99% probability.

While retail participants speculate on whether BTC will hold key support at $75,200, institutional interest remains risk-off. Bitcoin ETF funds continue to see outflows since the start of the week, losing another $89.68 million over the past day.

DonAlt's perspective stands out for its calmness. Support has been handled cleanly, removing short-term panic sentiment. Resistance does not yet have sufficient strength for an immediate breakout toward $80,000 per BTC. So, the diagnosis is as follows - time is the main ally of the current cycle.

In such an environment, the "give the market time" strategy proposed by one of the most accurate forecasters in recent years appears to be the most rational response to current uncertainty.
