Historical data provides a bullish outlook for the XRP price this month, with the altcoin likely to record significant gains based on past performance. Specifically, the average monthly returns show that XRP could even record double-digit gains. Average Monthly Returns Point To Notable Gains For The XRP Price Cryptorank data shows that the XRP price has historically recorded an average monthly return of 13.8% in September. This suggests that the altcoin could again record positive returns this time around, especially as it looks to reclaim the psychological $3 level. Meanwhile, it is worth mentioning that the altcoin has closed the last three Septembers in the green. Related Reading: Is XRP A Meme Coin? Analyst Reveals How Whales Are Playing The Game In September 2022, the XRP price recorded a gain of 46.2%, its largest over the past 4 years. It also saw an increase of almost 8% in September 2023. The altcoin has so far recorded a gain of nearly 3% this month and looks on course to replicate its historical positive performance in September. Notably, there are bullish fundamentals that could spark a run for the XRP price. This includes the projected 25 basis points (bps) rate cut that the Fed is expected to make at the September 17 FOMC meeting. There is currently a 99.7% chance that the Fed will make this cut, according to CME FedWatch data. A Fed rate cut is bullish for altcoins, including XRP, as it could lead to increased risk-on sentiment among investors and cause more liquidity to flow into these assets. Meanwhile, the XRP ETFs are expected to receive the SEC’s nod in October, and given the market’s forward-looking nature, the XRP price could rally in anticipation of this occurrence next month. The ETFs are expected to attract new capital into the altcoin’s ecosystem. XRP Eyes Rally To $3.40 In an X post, crypto analyst Egrag Crypto predicted that the XRP price could rally to around $3.40. He noted that with the altcoin currently trading at around $2.877, all eyes are on how it will perform around this level. If XRP closes above $3.077, the analyst stated that it could increase the chance of breaching the $3.40 mark.

His accompanying chart showed that XRP could claim this $6 range this month. Meanwhile, in another X post, Egrag Crypto said that the range of $3.077 to $3.13 is a key area, as a strong close above it with high volume could pave the way for the next move. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.85, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Bitcoin is entering a fragile stage after days of selling pressure and uncertainty pushed the price into consolidation around the $110,000 level. Bulls are working to defend this key area, but momentum has clearly faded. The market now finds itself in a holding pattern, with investors cautious about whether Bitcoin will stabilize or break lower in the sessions ahead. Related Reading: BNB Chain Surpasses 650M Unique Addresses – Binance Adoption Continues Despite the weakness, there are no clear signals yet of a deeper correction. Historically, retracements within ongoing bull markets often serve as resets rather than trend reversals, but the pressure on Bitcoin has nonetheless sparked debate about its short-term direction. Holding above current levels is becoming increasingly important, as failure to do so could shift sentiment further in favor of the bears. Top analyst Axel Adler described the current environment as a neutral-bearish base, meaning flows and price action lack the conviction needed for a decisive bullish push. Until stronger demand emerges, Bitcoin’s recovery is likely to be limited to technical bounces rather than sustained rallies. Bitcoin Stuck In Neutral-Bearish Base According to top analyst Axel Adler, Bitcoin’s current structure remains fragile as both price and derivative flows sit below 50, signaling weakness across critical indicators. Adler emphasizes that while short-term rebounds are possible, the market lacks the conviction required for a sustained uptrend. With taker flows still negative and weak, any recovery from present levels is likely to be a mean-reversion bounce toward $113K, aligning with the Fair Value and mid-30-day range, rather than the beginning of a new bullish phase. This environment suggests that risk appetite remains absent, leaving the market vulnerable to further tests of lower boundaries. Adler notes that unless flows shift meaningfully, price rallies will likely remain capped and quickly fade as selling pressure reemerges. The nearest bullish setup would require stabilization of flows that could push BTC toward the $113K–$115K region, a technical recovery zone that would ease immediate bearish sentiment but still fall short of confirming a regime shift. For a true change in market structure, Adler points to two key thresholds: Flow >55 and Price Index >50. Only when both conditions are met will Bitcoin have the foundation for a stronger, trend-confirming rally. Until then, the market faces an elevated risk of repeated retests of support zones, with traders closely monitoring whether BTC can hold above $110K or slip further into correction territory. Related Reading: Bitcoin And Ethereum Exchange Inflows Overshadow Stablecoin Demand – Details BTC Holding the Line Above $110K Bitcoin continues to consolidate around the $110K–$111K zone, showing resilience after weeks of sharp selling pressure. The chart highlights how BTC has bounced from recent lows near $108K but still struggles to reclaim higher momentum. The 50-day moving average now acts as resistance, capping the upside attempts and reflecting waning bullish strength. Despite the pullback from the $123K all-time high, the structure remains intact above the 200-day moving average near $101K, which has consistently served as a long-term support. The current price action shows a market caught in balance: bulls are defending demand, but bears maintain pressure as rallies face rejection around the $112K level. Related Reading: Ethereum Demand Spikes As Whales Add 260K ETH In 24 Hours The flat trajectory of the 100-day moving average reinforces the consolidation phase, suggesting that a decisive breakout is needed to confirm direction. If Bitcoin closes above $113K in the short term, it could set up a retest of $118K, the mid-range level that has acted as both support and resistance. Failure to hold the $110K level could expose BTC to repeated tests of $108K and, ultimately, the psychological $105K zone. For now, Bitcoin’s fate hinges on whether buyers can stabilize flows and absorb ongoing selling pressure. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
