Ripple XRP’s historic 2024 is expected to bleed into 2025, with the asset setting a new benchmark price above $3. Presently, XRP is trading at $2.43 but is prepared to boom towards the end of this month. Several price predictions have the cryptocurrency reaching beyond $4 for the first time in the Spring. What will XRP’s average price look like throughout this year?
XRP hit $137 billion in market value in early 2025, making it the third-largest cryptocurrency. More banks and financial institutions are using XRP, showing growing trust in the platform. Additionally, XRP’s SEC lawsuit win and the appointment of Paul Atkins as the new SEC chair, followed by the removal of Gary Gensler, was pivotal to XRP’s growth. These two developments helped XRP reshape its trajectory and establish momentum for the token to gain traction. Entering 2025, a new era appears to be underway for the asset, with more hype around it than ever before.
Analysts at CoinCodex are bullish on XRP in 2025, projecting the cryptocurrency to establish a new all-time high. Spring 2025 (March-May) is predicted to be the high point of the year for the asset, seeing it nearly double from current prices. The ROI of nearly 100% would be huge for investors who jumped in at the end of 2024 when XRP picked up more steam.

In 2025, XRP (XRP) is anticipated to change hands in a trading channel between $ 2.26
and $ 4.60, according to CoinCodex analysts. This in turn leads to an average annualized price of $ 3.14. This could result in a potential return on investment of 89.23% compared to the current rates of the asset. $3.14 also established a new 52-week high for the asset from current prices.
Ripple XRP’s all-time high of $3.84 was established 7 years ago but may be tested in 2025. The altcoin is only down 36% from that high. Fortunately, XRP has displayed the ability to gain this much within just a few months. As a result, XRP reaching a new high of $4 in the Spring is certainly possible. Upon reaching that high, the asset will likely fall back down to north of $3. However, this price could become the new benchmark for altcoins in 2025, with XRP representing the best of the best.

Furthermore, this number could surge even high if an XRP ETF arrives within the calendar year. Indeed, Polymarket predicts a 70% chance that XRP could have its ETF approved this year. If it were to follow in Bitcoin’s footsteps following the first-ever crypto ETF approval in the US, XRP could skyrocket beyond $4, perhaps to as high as $5.
Lastly, Ripple’s announcement of a new stablecoin launch, RLUSD, also triggered hype for Ripple entering 2025. The momentum is expected to carry deep into 2025, with the company’s CEO Brad Garlinghouse promising a big year ahead. “Excited for the year ahead! Momentum and increased focus on real-world utility continue to build,” Ripple’s CEO stated on X. “Momentum and increased focus on real-world utility continues to build.”
