The cryptocurrency market isn’t looking great right now. In just the past 24 hours, the total market cap has dropped by 4.4%, with most top cryptos taking a hit. XRP is no exception, slipping by 2.3%. But that’s just part of the story.
This month has been particularly rough for XRP, with two major price crashes—an 18.6% drop on March 8 and a steep 22.12% decline between March 7 and 10. Right now, the token is struggling to recover, still down 18.49% from its March 7 level.
But could things turn around? A well-known crypto analyst believes XRP could hit major price peaks in 2025, despite the current turbulence. If history is any guide, XRP might be gearing up for a big move. Let’s take a closer look.
Crypto analyst EGRAG Crypto predicts that XRP could reach its next peak in either May 2025 or September 2025. His forecast is based on past price movements, particularly between 2014 and 2018. During that period, market cycles lasted either 1,492 or 1,614 days. If XRP follows a similar pattern, its next big rally could happen in mid-2025.
Previously, EGRAG expected a major price increase in July 2024. However, after reviewing historical trends, he adjusted his prediction to 2025.
Despite current struggles, the analyst remains optimistic and maintains a long-term price target of $27 for XRP.
Over the past year, XRP has already seen significant growth, rising by 241.2%.
At the start of 2025, XRP was priced at $2.0870. In January, it recorded a 46% gain, but in February, it dropped by 29.3%, reflecting market volatility.
At the beginning of March, XRP was trading at $2.1469. It saw strong growth of 34.21% on March 2, but two major corrections this month pushed the price below its early March levels. Currently, XRP is trading at $2.1298.
Experts warn that if XRP fails to stay above $2.2, it could face more declines. The key support level to watch is $1.6, as dropping below this could lead to even steeper losses.
The market may be shaky now, but XRP’s biggest moves might still be ahead.
XRP might reach a high of $5.81 with an average of $4.89.
By 2030, XRP may trade between $16.92 and $26.97, driven by institutional adoption, CBDC development, and Ripple’s expansion in global payments.
XRP’s price could hit $178.82 by 2040, assuming widespread adoption, strong regulatory support, and Ripple’s continued dominance in cross-border payments.
