Pumpius (@pumpius), a well-known crypto pundit, has raised a simple but striking possibility, predicting that XRP could reach $5 before September ends.
The comment drew many responses from the XRP community, revealing a wide mix of optimism, skepticism, and caution.
$5 XRP by the end of September is a real possibility.

XRP Army Reacts
Pumpius described this move as a “real possibility,” and many supporters agreed, expressing confidence that an upward move is just around the corner. Some commenters predicted a slightly longer timeline, with one user stating that he expects October to be a decisive month.
Another said she is prepared to celebrate if it happens, even though she sees it as a surprise. On the more cautious side, some community members pointed out that similar predictions have been made throughout the year, yet the anticipated breakout has not yet arrived.
Not everyone dismissed the idea, though. One participant said that once the price begins to move, it will take off quickly. Another suggested that while the asset might achieve this feat, it would likely be suppressed by market manipulation.
This wide range of perspectives captures the uncertainty within the community. Optimists remain hopeful for sudden price acceleration, while skeptics point to the absence of consistent follow-through in past rallies.
Market Factors Driving Speculation
The discussion comes at a time when macroeconomic shifts are giving digital assets new momentum. The Federal Reserve recently enacted highly anticipated rate cuts, creating conditions that many traders interpret as supportive for risk assets.
Lower interest rates often reduce the appeal of traditional safe havens, redirecting capital toward higher-yielding opportunities such as cryptocurrencies. XRP is already one of the most closely followed tokens by institutional investors, and the community is anticipating rapid growth before the end of the month.

The prospect of XRP advancing toward $5 is tied to this broader environment of improving confidence and the perception that the market’s reaction to rate cuts could bring in fresh institutional participation.
Anticipation for ETF Approvals
The community is also closely watching October decisions on XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Similar products have already launched in markets such as Brazil and Canada, performing well since their introduction earlier this year.
Approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) would mark a significant step for XRP, opening the door for new categories of investors to gain exposure through regulated financial vehicles. The excitement for these products could help XRP reach this target before they are approved.
