There were few cryptocurrencies that entered 2025 with as much hype as Ripple. The company’s ongoing legal troubles were expected to be a thing of the past. However, it has since struggled with a market downturn that has seen a host of assets’ values plummet. Still, Ripple rebounded 4% to end the week; so is there still hope XRP can target $4?
The asset was largely expected to set a new $4 all-time high before 2025 came to a close. Yet, the state of the market has placed that expectation in jeopardy, with both the crypto and stock markets struggling. All hope is certainly not lost, as many experts are projecting a bullish market cycle to be nearing.

According to their analysts, XRP should target $4 before March is done. They project the asset to reach an all-time high of $4.04, indicating a 71% jump from where it stands now. That isn’t all, as they expect it to usurp that level before the year is through. Indeed, XRP is projected to reach a price of $4.24 just a month later, setting a new landmark price.
