- XRP sees a mixed September start, trading at $0.5698 with a slight 24-hour increase but weekly decline.
- Historical data shows XRP’s September volatility, with gains up to 94.4% in 2013 and sharp falls in 2017, 2021.
XRP presents a mixed performance early into September, currently trading at $0.5698. Despite a slight 24-hour increase of 0.92%, XRP remains down by 6.91% over the past week. This performance follows a broader pattern of fluctuation, with a monthly decrease of 2.88% according to data from ETHNews.
Historically, September has been a month for XRP, marked by both substantial gains and notable declines. The most dramatic increase occurred in 2013, with a surge of 94.4%. Subsequent years such as 2016, 2018, and 2022 also saw appreciable rallies of 46.9%, 73.2%, and 46.2%, respectively.
However, XRP has also experienced sharp downturns, like the over 20% drops observed in both 2017 and 2021.
Despite these swings, the cumulative average growth rate for XRP in September stands at 13.7%. This historical trend suggests a potential rebound for XRP from its current downward trajectory, potentially achieving at least a 13% rise by the end of the month if past patterns hold.
As in previous reports in ETHNews, the recent conclusion of a longstanding lawsuit, which resulted in a $125 million penalty for Ripple, has once again focused attention on the company’s future initiatives.
These include plans to enhance the XRP Ledger and expand its decentralized finance (DeFi) offerings linked to XRP. Such developments could invigorate the market’s reception of XRP, bolstering its demand and value.

ETHNews analysts are watching for signs that could indicate a shift towards a bullish phase for XRP. A critical indicator will be the cryptocurrency’s ability to establish sustained support around the $0.60 mark in the short term.
This level of support could signal a stronger recovery and potentially higher gains as Ripple continues to expand its ecosystem and strategic initiatives.
