XRP Price Prediction: Will XRP Rise to $4 Next?

According to Gate market data, as of August 4, 2025, XRP is currently priced at $2.93, with a daily fall of 4.34%, and a market capitalization of $173.6 billion, firmly ranking third in the Crypto Assets leaderboard. Despite a nearly 13% decline over the past week, breaking below the $3 key psychological support level, multiple institutions and analysts believe that this pullback is actually a preparation phase for the next strong rebound, with a target price of $4 soon to be reached.

##Market Divergence Intensifies: Brief Pullback vs Prelude to Bull Market

The current market judgment on the trend of XRP is polarized:

  • Bearish view: Technical analysts warn that if the support level of $2.80 - $2.95 cannot be held, it may further dip into the $2.40 - $2.60 range (potential 16% fall). In the past 48 hours, whale addresses have sold over 720 million XRP, intensifying market selling pressure.
  • Bullish signals: Google Gemini AI predicts a target price of $4.45 by the end of August (ranging from $3.6 to $5.2); the DeepSeek model also indicates a technical target of $3.5 to $4.0 for August. On-chain data shows a large accumulation of buy orders in the range of $2.40 to $2.60, which could serve as a rebound springboard.

Analyst Michaël van de Poppe emphasized: "$2.40 - $2.60 is the strategic accumulation zone, and once buying power returns, XRP will restart its upward trend."

##Three Major Catalysts: Key Events Breaking Through in August

If XRP is to hit $4 in August, three major events will be decisive variables:

  1. August 15 — Ripple and SEC lawsuit progress: Both parties will submit a joint progress report, and if the SEC abandons the appeal or reaches a settlement, it will clear the long-term regulatory shadow for XRP and stimulate institutional entry.
  2. October 18 - Spot XRP ETF final review window: Grayscale and 21Shares' spot ETF applications will be approved by the SEC. If approved, XRP will gain access to traditional capital channels worth hundreds of billions, replicating the BTC +60% market trend following the approval of the Bitcoin ETF.
  3. November - Global banks complete ISO 20022 upgrade: SWIFT network banking system migrates to ISO 20022 standard, deeply compatible with RippleNet technology architecture, and the adoption rate of cross-border payments may see an explosion.

##Technical Analysis: Rebound signal has appeared, 20% increase is imminent.

Multiple technical indicators show that XRP is at a rebound critical point:

  • Bullish divergence formation: On the 4-hour chart, the price is falling while the RSI indicator continues to rise, indicating that selling pressure is weakening and buying is gradually entering the market.
  • The descending wedge breakout is imminent: if it breaks the $3.07 trend line, based on Fibonacci retracement levels, the short-term target is $3.60 - $3.65 (an increase of 20%).
  • Dragonfly Doji signal: A classic reversal pattern appears on the daily chart, and a historically similar pattern has triggered a 65% surge (April 2025).

##Conclusion: If it holds steady at $2.80 in August, the journey to $4 officially begins.

Despite being under pressure in the short term, XRP has the conditions for a breakout from technical, fundamental, and news perspectives. If it can hold the support zone of $2.80 - $2.95 and take advantage of the favorable regulatory news on August 15th, the target range of $3.5 - $4.5 is expected to be achieved within the month. If the spot ETF is approved as scheduled, then $6 - $10 will become the next target for the bulls.
