XRP Price Prediction: XRP Jumps +4% And Could It Target $2?

XRP slipped to $1.32 on Wednesday, even as U.S. spot XRP ETFs logged their 11th straight day of net inflows. Today, though, the trend has reversed: XRP is up more than 4% and now trading at $1.38. Could the XRP price prediction point to a $2 target this September?

At a recent event attended by around 400 wealth managers, Bitwise research analyst Ryan Rasmussen noted that XRP drew more audience questions than any other digital asset discussed. A lineup that also included Bitcoin, Solana, Hyperliquid, stablecoins, and tokenization.

He described the response as strong in a follow-up thread posted after the event. While 67% of attendees said they currently hold zero crypto exposure, 60% believe prices will climb higher by the close of 2026 and intend to build positions within the coming year.

That disconnect between belief and action stands out. Combined with ongoing ETF inflow trends, which already suggest XRP is moving away from purely retail-driven trading and toward regulated, portfolio-based ownership, the poll results lend further support to that narrative.
