Where the reports disagree
1Whether XRP has already broken above $1.38

At the time of writing, XRP trades near $1.34 on the referenced chart.
What would settle it: A verifiable XRP/USD price feed timestamped to September 14, 2026, from an exchange or market data provider.
2Whether the $1.38 breakout has been confirmed
Should the cryptocurrency manage a push above $1.38, the analyst explained at the time, it will have broken a critical resistance level, enabling it to soar as high as $1.60.
Without price crossing this barrier, any upward moves could prove temporary or indecisive.

What to make of it
Treat the $1.60 target and the $1.38 trigger level as established analyst commentary from Ali Martinez, but do not treat XRP's actual price position relative to $1.38 on September 14 as settled since the two reports give opposite readings hours apart.
