The cryptocurrency market has recently experienced significant fluctuations, with leading coins, including Bitcoin and major altcoins, showing both substantial weekly gains and distressing monthly losses.

As December approaches, we investigated the sentiment surrounding Ripple, the third-largest non-stablecoin cryptocurrency, consulting three widely known AIs for their forecasts.

What Awaits XRP (ChatGPT’s Perspective)?

ChatGPT analyzed XRP’s turbulent months, especially following its historical peak in July. By October, XRP had significantly declined, falling below $2 during a widespread market downturn. Another drop occurred in mid-November, bringing it down to approximately $1.80.

Currently, the price has rebounded to around $2.20, yet it remains slightly down year-to-date, a noteworthy consideration, especially amid a generally bullish year. The conclusion of Ripple’s long-standing legal struggle with the US SEC and the launch of several XRP ETFs in the United States also factored into the discussion.

ChatGPT observed that a positive indicator for XRP is its recovery above the $2.00 threshold after the recent corrections. Maintaining this level is crucial heading into December, as closing above it would preserve the long-term trend.

The AI highlighted potential catalysts for a rally in December, including strong ETF investments, market stabilization, and renewed accumulation by major investors, who have been notably absent recently. It foresees a bullish scenario in which XRP could surge to $2.85, contrasting with a bearish forecast predicting a drop below $2.00, potentially hitting around $1.80.

“December has the potential to be better than October and November, but XRP remains in a fragile position. If the broader market stabilizes, XRP could see a gradual rebound toward the mid-$2 range. However, without a strong catalyst, a full trend reversal seems unlikely before 2026,” concluded the AI chatbot.

Ripple Seen by Perplexity and Grok

Perplexity took a slightly more optimistic standpoint. While it echoed similar indicators for a potential XRP upswing, its best-case prediction suggests a price rise beyond $3.00, potentially reaching $3.40, a mark just shy of July’s peak. Conversely, its bearish outlook does not anticipate XRP dropping below $2.00 in December.

Grok believes a decline could occur if the US Federal Reserve does not lower interest rates or if any geopolitical issues hinder XRP’s progress. Decreasing trading volumes and profit-taking by large investors could also spur a potential correction, driving the asset back toward November’s low of $1.80.

Nonetheless, both AIs seem to agree that significant movements are unlikely in December, projecting increases between 5% and 20% at most.
