XRP Price Set to Outperform Ethereum? Here’s Why

Published by

XRP is trading near $2.82, up about 2% on the day but down over the past week and month. The SEC lawsuit is settled, and regulatory signals in the U.S. have tilted more positively in recent months.  Still, uncertainty remains the defining theme across markets.

With the Federal Reserve weighing possible interest-rate cuts and new questions about tariffs, investors have been hesitant to commit fresh capital to risk assets. 

Will XRP Outperform ETH?

Analyst CrediBull Crypto sees fresh signs that XRP could start pulling ahead of Ethereum in the weeks and months ahead. He points to the XRP/ETH chart, where a daily bullish divergence has already taken shape and a similar pattern is now forming on the three-day timeframe. 

The pair is holding inside a well-defined demand zone, with momentum indicators like RSI curling upward from oversold territory. Put together with earlier technical signals, he argues the setup paints a clear picture: XRP may be gearing up for a stretch of outperformance against ETH.

‘Red September’ Concerns Loom

September has historically been a weak month for crypto, often marked by sideways price action or declines. XRP has mirrored that pattern, moving mostly sideways for more than a month. 

The near-term outlook hinges on the Fed’s next move and the upcoming jobs report, both of which could sway expectations around monetary policy. Until then, uncertainty is likely to keep pressure on sentiment.

What’s Next For XRP Price?

XRP is hovering near the $2.75 to $2.78 support zone, a level analysts describe as “critical” for maintaining short-term stability. Over the past few days, the token has shown relative weakness compared with Bitcoin and Ethereum, failing to hold earlier gains and slipping below key trading levels. 

XRP would need to break above resistance near $2.86 to $2.88. Until then, consolidation appears more likely than a sharp breakout.
