The upcoming couple of weeks are shaping up to be a critical period for XRP, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) postponing its decisions on new spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) until October and Ripple awaiting a U.S. banking license decision scheduled for the same month.
Whales have also accumulated roughly 900 million XRP (worth around $2.7 billion) in August, and XRP Ledger is gaining traction, with its Ethereum (ETH) Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible sidechain reaching $105 million in total value locked.
XRP price prediction
To set an XRP price target for September 1, 2025, Finbold’s AI prediction tool used multiple LLMs to generate an average forecast for improved accuracy while incorporating momentum-based indicators into its context.
According to the AI, the average XRP price on September 1 will be $3.28, implying a 9.08% upside from the current price of $3.02.
Claude 4 Sonnet was the most bullish LLM, forecasting a XRP price of $3.45 (+14.24%). Grok 3 and GPT-4o were also optimistic, with target prices of $3.25 (+7.62%) and $3.15 (+4.3%), respectively.
On the technical side, the cryptocurrency is showing signs of short-term weakness while testing a key support zone (it is hovering just above its 50-day moving average at $2.99).
For instance, the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) of 0.023 sits below the signal line (0.053), with a negative histogram (-0.03), pointing to bearish momentum. Both the MACD and signal slopes are also declining, suggesting selling pressure is gradually building.
The relative strength index (RSI) at 46.46 is in neutral territory but leaning bearish, which suggests soft demand still outside oversold levels.
However, the stochastic oscillator (K=21.00, D=31.27) is deep in oversold territory, confirming downward momentum and signaling the potential for a near-term bounce if support holds.
