React to recent catalysts ranging from RLUSD rollout to wew SEC Chair Paul Atkins' confirmation—prominent analysts have pegged bold XRP price forecasts between $1.80 and $4.50.

Fifteen days into April, Ripple (XRP) price has endured volaltile swings. Reacting to recent catalysts ranging from RLUSD rollout to wew SEC Chair Paul Atkins' confirmation—prominent analysts have pegged bold XRP price forecasts between $1.80 and $4.50.

In March 2025, Ripple (XRP) scored a key win in its case with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, setting the stage for a busy April with several economic and political catalysts.

As the month progressed, analysts grew increasingly divided over where XRP could trade next, with some seeing scope for a swift breakout toward $4, while others saw consolidation around $2.30 more likely.

Here’s a breakdown of the biggest XRP price predictions for April 2025 so far, and how they panned out.

1. Changelly $2.12 support forecast still plays out

According to Changelly, a crypto exchange widely used for its algorithmic forecasts, XRP is expected to trade between $2.12 and $4.52 this month, citing “increasing volume and strong momentum.”

That prediction arrived just days after Ripple price surged 10% in 24 hours to reach $1.99, sparked by Bitcoin’s bullish move and a market-wide uptick in sentiment following the Trump administration’s decision to pause tariff hikes on key Chinese imports. The move had threatened to escalate the US trade war.

2. RLUSD narrative: Uzzi’s $3 breakout target remains in sight

Other analysts noted that XRP’s fundamentals are strengthening, particularly with the rollout of Ripple’s new U.S.-dollar stablecoin, RLUSD, and expanding institutional adoption.

Trader Hali_uzzi estimated a range of $2.50 to $3.00 for April, adding that XRP could climb toward $15 by May if adoption trends persist.

3. Investorie’s conservative outlook signals consolidation around $2.30

Meanwhile, another analyst posting under the Investorie pseudonym issued a more measured view, forecasting an April trading range of $1.80 to $2.90, with $2.30 labeled as the “realistic” price level.

This closely aligns with XRP’s recent technical structure, which shows support around $1.85 and resistance near the psychological $2.50 mark.

4. Cryptogeek’s $58,000 hype founders under bearish market sentiment

However, not all predictions are created equal. A viral post by CryptoGeekNews, citing Forbes, projected an astronomical price of $58,000 per XRP—a level that would imply a market cap larger than the entire global money supply.

While such extreme targets often capture attention online, analysts largely disregard them as they are not based on institutional analysis, crypto derivatives trading, or historical price trends.

Moreover, a Binance post earlier this year suggested XRP could hit $600 in 2025, although no direct source was provided, and no April-specific targets were mentioned.

The post, however, highlights the growing buzz around a potential XRP ETF, a topic of ongoing interest among investors who appreciate Ripple’s regulatory clarity and its real-time fiat settlement use case.

Looking Ahead:

Going forward, XRP’s ability to sustain April’s gains will likely depend on macroeconomic stability, crypto market leadership from Bitcoin, and Ripple’s success in onboarding institutions to the RLUSD framework.

While triple- or quadruple-digit predictions make for sensational headlines, most expert analysts agree that a realistic target range for April, considering recent trends and technical levels, falls between $2.30 and $4.50, barring any unforeseen market-moving events or news catalysts.
