Midway through April 2025, Ripple’s native token XRP has seen sharp price fluctuations in response to a mix of regulatory developments, market sentiment shifts, and technical signals. Following Ripple’s courtroom victory against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in March, optimism surged among crypto investors.
However, the market has since seen new variables, including rising geopolitical tensions and the recent confirmation of crypto-friendly SEC Chairman Paul Atkins. To combat this volatility, here are five top predictions that analysts have made regarding the XRP price performance this month:
1. Changelly Predicts Upside Range Between $2.12 and $4.52
XRP will have positive price movement anytime from $2.12 to $4.52 during the month of April, according to our forecast on the Crypto exchange and forecasting platform Changelly. Technical momentum and rising trading volume are what underpin the estimate.
For context, XRP price recently made a peak of $1.99 in early April along with the rest of the crypto market as the broader market got kicked off by a pause in US-China tariff tensions. A continued strength, if bullish sentiment continues across the sector, is what analysts see.
2. Hali Uzzi Eyes $3.00 As RLUSD Gains Institutional Traction
In his latest tweet, crypto analyst and trader Hali Uzzi has pointed out that Ripple’s (XRP) recent stablecoin launch, RLUSD, is a major reason behind the bulls’ strength in XRP. Unlike Changi, the April band for RLUSD is $2.50 to $3, with institutions beginning to be interested before April begins. The analyst also stated that if such liquidity inflows happen on the broader macroeconomic level and continue to adopt XRP, the price could touch $15 within the next month.
3. Investorie Suggests Moderate Climb, Targeting $2.30
Investorie’s market analyst behind the moniker is a little more reserved when he picks a trading corridor of around $1.80 to $2.90. Support is at $1.85 and resistance is around $2.50 in turn back the midpoint target of $2.30. This forecast goes well with the ongoing technical setup of XRP, as it remains within the territory of price accumulation without any breakout signals, as mentioned in our last news piece.
4. CryptoGeek’s $58,000 Projection Draws Skepticism
As opposed to grounded forecasts, CryptoGeek’s post had a sensational figure in that it had predicted $58,000 for XRP. The projection was criticised, which, while deriving from a speculative interpretation of a Forbes article, was lacking fundamental or historical support. The figure was dismissed by market experts as highly unrealistic and that such a valuation would be larger than the global financial market size.
5. Binance Rumors Stir $600 Speculation
Some speculation posts hinged on Binance mentioning a $600 target for XRP in 2025. There was no official Binance analysis, but the discussion on the issue was the talk of the town about an XRP ETF, as mentioned in our previous story. Though these projections were not tied to April specifically, the ETF conversation continues to shape sentiment surrounding Ripple’s future role in real-time settlement and institutional crypto use.
As of press time, XRP price stood at $2.08 on Wednesday, April 16. Hence, the Binance-related prediction seems far from the truth at the moment. Nonetheless, proponents remain optimistic on XRP’s future owing to the ETF news with long-term targets as high as $30.
