XRP has largely been following BTC and BTC also has this pattern but it's further along. Let's see if this pattern meets it's target of $0.45
$XLM is designed to be a low-cost, real-time payment channel for the unbanked in the Asia Pacific. I see a near term target of $0.09 then a correction. The correction could shallow as new mini-altcoin pump may begin.
This is my projection of BTC growth in 2018. Assuming it grows about the same as 2017. Since there is more buying pressure. And correlated with projections from the Web Bot project & Elliott Wave theory.
Bitcoin is consolidating and about to make a decision whether it will break out of the wedge or break down.
