XRP trades at just under $1.50 after failing to hold the handle. The question now is whether this is a routine cooldown or the start of something uglier. Here’s our full XRP price prediction.
Just last week, XRP spiked over 20%, briefly touching $1.70 on August 22, its highest print since January. The rally unwound fast once Bitcoin stalled near $80,000 and dropped below $76,000, triggering a market-wide leverage flush that dragged XRP down with it.
Daily RSI hit roughly 80, way overbought territory, just right as price hit the $1.70 resistance zone, an area stacked with trapped longs from multiple 2025 swing highs looking to break even.
Bitcoin has since clawed back to around $77K, but the broader market has largely priced in last week’s positive catalysts and needs something new to keep pushing higher. For XRP specifically, that “something new” has a name and a date: the Clarity Act, potentially hitting the Senate floor in mid-September.

XRP Price Prediction: Hit $1.70 Again This Week?
XRP is consolidating in a tight band between $1.45 support and $1.51 resistance, with the daily pivot sitting at $1.49, essentially a coin flip zone. Volume has cooled from last week’s frenzy, a sign the FOMO-driven buying has largely exhausted itself for now.
Trading above every major daily moving average still technically favors bulls, but stretched momentum after a 51-52% weekly gain rarely resolves cleanly. If A Senate vote on the Clarity Act in September removes regulatory overhang, spot volume could surge, and XRP could clear $1.70 to challenge $2 and eventually $3.
However, price could chop in the $1.40-$1.51 range while the market waits for a catalyst, testing patience more than conviction. A clean break below $1.45 opens the door to the 0.382 Fibonacci support at $1.35-$1.40, with deeper structural floors at $1.25 and $1.18 if momentum fully unwinds.
A bullish structure survives a test of $1.35, but it won’t survive a break below it.

LiquidChain Targets Early Mover Upside as XRP Tests Key Levels
Anyone who bought XRP under $1.20 last week is sitting comfortably. But here’s the uncomfortable math: even a clean breakout to $3 from here is roughly a 2x from current levels. It’s solid, but not the kind of move that changes a portfolio’s trajectory.
At XRP’s market cap, the era of 50x moves is over. That capital has to go somewhere if traders want asymmetric upside, and increasingly it’s rotating toward earlier-stage infrastructure plays.
LiquidChain is one of the presales absorbing that rotation. It’s a Layer 3 execution environment fusing Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana liquidity into a single unified layer. With Liquid, developers deploy once and reach all three ecosystems, rather than fragmenting liquidity across chains.
The presale sits at $0.0149 per token with $950K raised so far, still 100X from here to the current XRP price.
Core features include Single-Step Execution and Verifiable Settlement, both aimed at solving the cross-chain liquidity fragmentation problem that’s plagued DeFi for years.
Research LiquidChain while the raise is still active.
