XRP has surged back into the spotlight. In mid-July 2025, it rallied to $2.90, marking a roughly 26% weekly gain and reclaiming its spot as the third-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.
As prices climb, investors and analysts are asking: can XRP’s current momentum carry it all the way to $10 by December 2025?
Analyst Ali Martinez notes the XRP SuperTrend indicator is flipping bullish on 12-hour charts. Historically, such flips have preceded a 470% rally in the past cycle, leading him to suggest a $10 target if the trend holds.
The ongoing XRP price surge has prompted some analysts to predict that it will reach $10 this year. Such a move would signal a 233% surge from the current level.
XRP’s ability to maintain relevance, even as the crypto landscape shifts, sets it apart from more speculative tokens. Tung highlights that many institutions already trust XRP, and the introduction of ETFs could further cement its status as a go-to asset for those seeking long-term exposure to digital assets.
 
The profit target in a bullish pennant is established by first measuring the height and then taking the same distance from its upper side. This height is about $2.9925. Adding this figure from the neckline gives the target price of around $10
XRP’s surge past $2.95 with solid volume, paired with ETF interest and legal clarity, makes a move toward $5 plausible. But $10 remains ambitious — contingent on institutional flows, macro rotation patterns, and active on-chain networks.
If these elements synchronize, XRP stands a shot at triple-digit percentages by year‑end. If they falter, it may linger in the $5 to $10 range.
XRP cross-border payments are being tested in the real world, needed ETF structures are forming, and whales are positioning. The next six months could prove pivotal — not just for $10, but for XRP’s place in crypto markets.
XRP is expected to surge as investors cheer the potential approval of an ETF by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Existing data shows that there is a high demand for crypto ETFs, as spot Bitcoin ETF inflows jumped to over $52 billion.
