XRP is trending as of late, primarily due to its slow, gradual price approach. Despite the booming crypto bull market, the positive price momentum has yet to hit XRP with its full force. 

The current market stance is promoting the altcoin surge. With Bitcoin hovering near $70K, XRP has gained a modest 1% in the last 24 hours. The announcement of Ripple stablecoin development has delivered decent traction to XRP but has not yet helped the token break into bullish momentum. 

With crippling questions gnawing at investors’ minds, several crypto platforms have instilled hope within the XRP community. The platforms have predicted bullish forecasts for XRP, stating that the token will soon cross its ambitious $2 barrier.

When Will XRP Hit $1 to $2?

XRP’s slow price pace has fueled significant skepticism within the Ripple community. Several users on X were noted expressing their discontent concerning Ripple, sharing how the token’s lethargic price movement is perplexing investors. 

Demystifying the rumor spree rife in the space, Egrag Crypto, a notable crypto analyst, uploaded a fresh XRP candlestick chart on X. The analyst later shared how the token is moving at a fairly anticipated rate. 

The price chart showed the Ripple price moving at a gradual pace. As compared to its contemporaries, Ripple has adapted to a mildly moving pace without encountering any major dips or declines, which shows the token’s lasting strength and mettle. 

Per crypto platform Changelly, Ripple is expected to cross the ambitious $1 mark by 2026. Based on various technical indicators, Changelly predicts XRP to trade at or below $0.75 by the end of 2024. 

Once the critical price barrier of $0.75 is crossed, XRP is set to outpace its contemporaries, breaking into a bullish streak. 

The platform further predicts XRP to hit $2 by the year 2027, eventually stabilizing its price momentum for the long haul. 

CoinCodex, another notable crypto analytics platform, echoes a similar forecast predicted by Changelly. Per CC, XRP is expected to trade at $1.25 by the year 2025.

“The RIPPLE price prediction for 2025 is currently between $0.372431 on the lower end and $1.843322 on the high end. Compared to today’s price, RIPPLE could gain 205.28% by 2025 if it reaches the upper price target.” 

April End Forecast for the Altcoin

With Bitcoin halving in the mix, the prices of several altcoins, including XRP, are expected to claim some of their lost value and price momentum. Ripple’s new stablecoin announcement has stirred the crypto community, hoping XRP will emerge as the ultimate winner.

Per our technical indicators, the current sentiment is bullish, while the Fear & Greed Index is showing 76 (extreme greed). RIPPLE recorded 16/30 (53%) green days with 4.44% price volatility over the last 30 days.”

However, various market factors and sentiments can always derail crypto price predictions made by analysts. Hence, discretion becomes imperative while making any financial deals in the said domain.
