Is XRP Down? The responses were promising

The conclusion was very positive, indicating that XRP could soon enter a massive price swing.

On a broader scale, Ripple’s cross-border token has been highly volatile since the current period began after the US presidential election at the end of 2024. It was trading around $0.60 at the time, but exploded to its all-time high in 2018 by January 2025, and finally broke it at $36 in July.

In the months that followed, the bears took control and XRP fell between $3.00 and $2.00 at the end of the year. After a brief rise to $2.40 on January 6, the asset resumed its downtrend and fell to a 15-month low of $1.11 (on most exchanges) on February 5.

It reacted well to this decline and even challenged the $1.65 resistance a few weeks later, but to no avail. Although it was suspended there, it is still trading around $1.45, which is 30% higher than the local low of a month ago. Given the resurgence of the crypto market over the past few days, the question now is whether XRP has already bottomed out, and if so, what are its next targets.

ChatGPT says…

To gain perspective, we consulted three of the most widely used AI chatbots, starting with the OpenAI solution. It noted that XRP found solid support in the “low panic” of $1.10-$1.15 and its ability to make a sharp recovery should encourage bulls. It is now trading off another important structural support at $1.30-$1.35, which should be the right line of defense if another leg goes down.

It put the probability of a “downside” scenario at 50% and said that if $1.30 holds and crypto sentiment continues to improve, the cross-border token could be on its way to recovering the first hurdle on its path to a repurchase at $1.65. If broken, the next target would be the $2.00 psychological line, followed by the January $2.40 peak.

“XRP could reach $2.50-$3.00 in 6-12 months if the crypto market enters a new phase of expansion,” ChatGPT said.

Additionally, it gave a 30% chance that XRP is currently in a long rally phase, which means trading in a narrow range between $1.20 and $1.90 for up to the next 9 months. A bear scenario (20%) is currently less likely, ChatGPT added, and further declines to $1.10 and below are unlikely unless there is a major black swan event.

Gemini and Grok – Do you agree?

Gemini’s short answer supported ChatGPT’s belief, saying, “The local bottom is likely at $1.11.” It showed that the lows are now holding after that flash crash, although the asset was stopped at $1.65.

Grok also reflected on this issue and had the same opinion. However, it outlined some key recent developments in the Ripple ecosystem that could further boost the underlying token. One of the latest major adoption moves was as the US Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC) added Hidden Road Partners CIV US LLC to its NSCC list of Participating Market Identifiers.

This meant that the NSCC update allowed Ripple Prime to transfer institutional post-trade volume directly to the XRP Ledger. Grok added that if these moves continue and affect XRP, the asset could target $2.00-$2.15 in the near future and $2.80-$3.30 by the end of the year.
