As the end of the first quarter approaches, XRP’s price trend is still characterized by short-term fluctuations, with the asset trading around $1.4 for the past few months.
One of the main concerns is the geopolitical backdrop that is pushing up energy prices and increasing volatility across major cryptocurrencies.
Analysts remain positive about XRP’s long-term trajectory, but its short-term potential is more difficult to assess. However, some artificial intelligence models are likely to rise again by the end of March.
AI predicts XRP price on April 1st
For example, Finbold’s AI prediction agent predicts the average price of XRP on April 1, 2026 to be $1.54, implying an increase of 4.77% from the current price of $1.46.

This algorithm combined results produced by three major large language models (LLMs): Gemini 3 Flash, ChatGPT 5.2, and Grok 4.1. To my surprise, all three were bullish.
Specifically, Gemini predicted that the XRP price would rise by more than 8.6%, reaching $1.58 on April 1st.
Grok set the price at $1.53, believing that the digital currency will rise by 4.93%.
OpenAI’s chatbot had predicted a slightly lower price of $1.52, but it still suggests an increase of 3.08%.

XRP price analysis
The current movement appears to be largely macro-driven and not tied to any XRP-specific developments. This highlights how closely a token’s performance is correlated with broader market sentiment.
From a technical perspective, XRP rebounded towards the $1.60 level on March 17th before failing to break out of the resistance level. This rejection formed a bearish signal on the daily chart and confirmed the upper bound of the consolidation range that has been in place since late January.

Traders are currently watching to see if XRP can regain the $1.52 area, an important retracement level that could indicate renewed buying interest. Several patterns on the chart point to a possible $1.85 target in case of a breakout of resistance or support.
