After spending years in the relatively narrow range with a center of gravity near $0.50, XRP went on a remarkable rally after Donald Trump was re-elected in November 2024. Indeed, the token is up 433.17% in the last 12 months, to its press time price of $2.83. XRP 12-month price chart.

Despite the surge, performance in early 2025 has been unstable, and most recent trading, in particular, brought a substantial downturn and a 6.54% drop within 24 hours. Under the circumstances, Finbold decided to consult one of the main – if vicarious – reasons for the latest downturn, the DeepSeek artificial intelligence ( AI ) platform, about how XRP will perform by the end of 2025 and if traders would be savvy to invest in it. DeepSeek AI sets XRP price target for December 31, 2025 As it quickly turned out, despite its impressive speed and apparent reasoning skills, DeepSeek can, at the moment, only rely on its existing dataset. This means it used XRP’s price in October 2023 as a starting point. Still, it arrived at a strangely plausible $3.50 average price target and a bull-case forecast of $5-10 for December 31, 2025. Finbold, in turn, provided the new AI model with updated information, such as the SEC’s latest appeal , the legal clarity surrounding XRP itself, Gary Gensler’s departure , and Donald Trump’s return, as well as the relevant price performance.

First, it estimated a plausible bull case that would, driven by the Trump administration fulfilling all the promises it gave to the cryptocurrency community, see the token rise as high as $10. Second, it provided the ‘base case’ that assumes steady growth but no major surges in 2025 and estimated XRP would, under such circumstances, trade between $6 and $8. Interestingly, even the bearish forecast – the forecast that assumes that “the market faces unexpected hurdles or a broader economic downturn” – proved mildly optimistic as it estimated the token would climb to between $4 and $5.
