XRP News Today: "XRP's Quiet Rally: Why This Token's Comeback Could Outpace the Market"

XRP, the native token of the XRP Ledger, has recently shown signs of potential upward movement amid evolving market conditions. As of late August 2025, XRP traded near $2.85, with some analysts and traders watching closely for a possible 20% rebound to $3.40 if key trendlines hold [2]. This potential bounce is being considered against a backdrop of reduced volatility compared to earlier in the year, when XRP reached an all-time high of $3.65 in July. Despite recent dips, the token has demonstrated resilience, with a 363.71% increase over the past year [2].

Analysts are closely monitoring technical indicators to assess the likelihood of a sustained rally. For instance, XRP has found support near its 100-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $2.77, a level that has historically acted as a floor for the token. A successful recovery above this level could signal a move toward the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement at $2.99, potentially extending into the $3.00–$3.40 range [5]. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has shown a gradual upward trend, pointing to fading bearish momentum and improved buying pressure [5]. This aligns with broader market optimism, as XRP has outperformed many Layer 1 tokens in terms of yearly gains [2].

The broader cryptocurrency market has also contributed to a cautiously optimistic outlook for XRP. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP all saw significant gains during the summer but have since pulled back from all-time highs. This correction has been attributed in part to uncertainty around Federal Reserve policy, particularly amid hotter-than-expected inflation data that could delay rate cuts [4]. However, for XRP, this pullback has created an opportunity for accumulation, with traders on platforms like Coinbase reporting increased buying activity [2].

Ripple, the company behind XRP, has continued to build partnerships and expand use cases for the token. For example, a joint initiative with SBI Holdings plans to distribute RLUSD, a stablecoin issued on the XRP Ledger, in Japan by the first quarter of 2026 [2]. These developments, combined with Ripple’s ongoing efforts to promote XRP as a tool for cross-border payments, could provide further long-term tailwinds for the token. Ripple’s CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, has also highlighted renewed business momentum in the wake of the SEC lawsuit resolution, noting a surge in U.S. deals after the 2024 election [3].

Despite these positive factors, XRP faces challenges from both macroeconomic headwinds and regulatory scrutiny. The ongoing debate around the token’s classification as a security—partially resolved in July 2023—has not fully alleviated concerns for institutional investors. However, the recent decision by Judge Analisa Torres, which ruled that XRP sold on exchanges is not a security, has provided some clarity and reduced legal uncertainty for market participants [1]. This has been credited in part to the efforts of the XRP community, known as the “XRP Army,” which provided crucial research and advocacy during the legal proceedings [1].

Looking ahead, the potential for XRP to rebound toward $3.40 will depend on several factors, including continued institutional adoption, favorable regulatory developments, and broader market sentiment. While the token remains subject to the same volatility that characterizes the cryptocurrency market, its strong fundamentals and expanding use cases provide a solid foundation for future growth [2].
