If you look at the two blue lines that travel from lower left to top right, XRP appears to be gaining value steadily as it bounces up and down within the "tunnel". I attribute this to the real inherent value that the XRP ledger provides in the finance world. Clearly it pops up for a short bull run and then back down for a correction, but then stabilizes again into the tunnel to continue growing. It would be cool to hear other people's thoughts on this idea.
