- XRP trades near $2.82 after weekly losses; SEC case settled, but macro uncertainty reduces risk appetite across markets.
- Analyst sees bullish divergences on XRP/ETH daily and three-day charts; RSI turns higher within a defined demand zone.
The SEC dispute has been settled, and recent U.S. policy signals have leaned more supportive of regulated crypto activity. Yet markets remain cautious as the Federal Reserve weighs rate cuts and tariff headlines cloud the macro path. Therefore, traders hesitate to add exposure, and liquidity concentrates around well-watched levels.
Analyst CrediBull Crypto argues the XRP/ETH pair shows a daily bullish divergence, with a similar pattern forming on the three-day chart. He notes the pair sits inside a demand zone while a momentum gauge like RSI turns up from oversold.
One more confluent factor to support my thesis below of $XRP outperformance over $ETH in the coming weeks/months:
We have already printed confirmed daily bull divs on the XRP/ETH pairing and are currently in the process of printing one on the D3 timeframe as well.

If that setup holds, relative performance could tilt in XRP’s favor against ETH across September and beyond. However, seasonality argues for patience, since September has often delivered flat or negative returns for large tokens.
Price action supports that view: XRP has moved sideways for more than a month and surrendered prior breakouts. The spot chart shows buyers defending the $2.75–$2.78 area, which many traders treat as near-term support.
Meanwhile, a firm hold above that band would put a reclaim of $2.90 back in play, then test follow-through on rising volume. Otherwise, a daily close below the band would open room toward lower summer ranges, keeping sentiment fragile until the macro calendar clears.
The resolution of the SEC case removes a legal overhang, though rules for stablecoins and custody remain under review. Consequently, banks and payment firms are likely to move gradually, matching policy updates and internal risk guidelines.
For traders, the calendar matters: the jobs report and Fed remarks can shift rate expectations and U.S. dollar strength within hours. During thinner Asian sessions, trading ranges often widen; risk controls near $2.75 should account for slippage and headline pressure.
Ripple (XRP) Price Report – September 2, 2025

The latest updates today emphasize growing momentum in XRP markets:
- XRP is consolidating below $3.00, with ETHNews analysts noting that both RSI and MACD indicators signal the potential for an imminent breakout. Technical reports highlight a resistance zone near $3.05–$3.10, while strong support holds at $2.70 USD.
- Whale activity remains strong, with nearly $960 million worth of XRP accumulated in recent sessions, suggesting institutional positioning for a possible bullish move.
- Market research continues to highlight XRP’s distinct role as a cross-border liquidity asset, differentiating it from Bitcoin’s store-of-value use case and Ethereum’s smart contract infrastructure.
As of September 2, 2025, XRP is consolidating near $2.80 with technical signals pointing to a possible breakout, supported by whale accumulation and rising ETF speculation. The XRP Ledger’s growing role in CBDCs, tokenized finance, and liquidity corridors continues to strengthen its long-term value proposition.
