Market analyst Dark Defender has declared that XRP is entering a new phase of market leadership, suggesting it has started to decouple from both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).
In a post to followers, Dark Defender urged traders to “forget BTC” and “forget ETH,” highlighting the XRP/BTC trading pair as “like a bombshell.” The analyst expressed complete confidence – “100% convinced” – that the separation from broader crypto market trends has already begun.
Central to this outlook is the XRP/BTC multi-year chart, where Dark Defender points to a decisive breakout from a long-term downtrend. The chart highlights a series of bullish Fibonacci extension targets, including the 161.8%, 261.8%, and 361.8% levels, suggesting room for significant upside.

A breakout above key resistance appears to have triggered renewed optimism among XRP supporters who view this as the start of a sustained dominance phase.
The term “XRP Dominance” – long used to describe periods when XRP outperforms other major cryptocurrencies – was emphasized in the analysis. According to Dark Defender, it’s no longer a future event on the horizon: “XRP Dominance isn’t coming… it’s here!”
While broader crypto markets remain heavily influenced by Bitcoin and Ethereum price action, the suggestion of XRP’s independence is notable. If the current momentum holds, it could mark one of the first extended periods in recent years where XRP leads rather than follows market direction.
