XRP holders are drawing parallels between XRP’s future outlook and the historic breakout in Nvidia’s stock price.
A market watcher shared a chart showing that Nvidia traded under $1 for nearly two decades before eventually breaking out into triple-digit prices above $200.

XRP holders compare its long consolidation to Nvidia’s multi-decade sub-$1 accumulation before a massive breakout.
Nvidia traded under $1 for about 17 years before surging past $200, fueling accumulation narratives.
