Two artificial intelligence (AI) models predict the XRP asset could surpass $5 by the end of 2025 following the launch of the first spot XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF).
Brazil introduced the world’s first spot XRP product, XRPH11.
Trading began on April 25 on B3, the country’s main stock exchange.
Hashdex created the ETF, Genial Investimentos administers it, and Genial Bank provides custody services for XRPH11.
Hashdex secured approval from Brazil’s Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) earlier this year after completing an extensive pre-operational phase.
Market observers expect the launch of XRPH11 to generally impact XRP’s price trajectory in 2025.
Historically, spot ETFs expand access for institutional investors, which has provided long-term support for cryptocurrencies.
Although Brazil’s financial market is smaller than those in the U.S. or Europe, being the first country to list such an ETF could attract significant international attention to XRP.
Finbold consulted ChatGPT and xAI’s Grok AI model for price predictions to determine how the product might impact XRP’s price.
AI Predicts XRP Price
ChatGPT projects XRP could reach $3.50 to $4.50 by the end of 2025 under normal bullish conditions.
If more countries launch XRP ETFs and global crypto demand rises, the asset could hit $6 to $8.
The AI model noted that worsening macroeconomic conditions or new regulatory hurdles could push the price back to a range between $1.5 and $2.
ChatGPT considers $4 a realistic target, nearly 80% above current levels.
Grok AI offered a similar outlook with more detailed probabilities. Its bullish scenario places XRP at $8.
The outcome depends on strong inflows into XRPH11, U.S. ETF approvals, Ripple’s expanding partnerships, and Bitcoin surpassing $120,000.
Grok’s base case predicts XRP at $4.50. This assumes moderate success for the Brazilian ETF, U.S.
ETF approvals by late 2025, and Bitcoin reaching $100,000.
Its bearish scenario forecasts XRP dipping to $2.00 if the ETF launch underperforms and macroeconomic pressures continue.
The Brazil ETF launch and Ripple’s legal wins could offer some price support.
Technical Analysis
The analysis by cryptocurrency trading analyst Alek shows XRP currently trades between a major support zone of $1.95 and $2.08.
The token shows resilience within a descending channel pattern, often considered a bull flag.
This pattern typically signals a potential continuation of the broader bullish trend.
According to the analyst, a decisive upward move from the current structure could dictate XRP’s next major price action.
A breakout above the channel would likely confirm bullish momentum. Failure to hold support could lead to further downside.
XRP Price Analysis
At press time, XRP traded at $2.19, down 0.14% over the last 24 hours. The asset is up 5% on the weekly chart.
XRP’s current price is slightly below its 50-day simple moving average (SMA) of $2.22, indicating minor short-term weakness.
It remains well above the 200-day SMA of $1.916, confirming its long-term bullish trend is intact.
