XRP has remained a closely watched instrument in the cryptocurrency market throughout 2026. Regulatory developments in the U.S., particularly the progress of federal digital asset legislation, have continued to influence price action and investor sentiment.
To see how much these developments will impact XRP, we asked Google’s Gemini AI for a price projection covering XRP through August 31, 2026.
Factors Behind the Forecast
Gemini focused on where XRP would realistically trade by month’s end, factoring in legislative developments, macroeconomic conditions, and technical signals. Its analysis centered on several key variables.
Chief among them was the CLARITY Act, a piece of federal legislation that has passed the House and cleared the Senate Banking Committee but has not yet received a Senate floor vote. With Congress entering its August recess without a scheduled vote, Gemini predicts limited potential for regulatory-driven price appreciation before September.
Bitcoin’s behavior was identified as an additional factor, with altcoins displaying strong directional correlation to its movements near the $63,000 level. XRP currently trades at $1.07, and the response provided a structured market analysis with three distinct price scenarios.
The Base Case
Gemini’s base case puts XRP in a range of $0.94 to $1.02 by August 31. This scenario assumes further CLARITY Act delays, Bitcoin sustains sideways movement, and no significant catalyst emerges to alter current market dynamics.
The Bullish Scenario
The bullish scenario projected a range of $1.15 to $1.28, contingent on an unexpected macroeconomic shift such as declining Treasury yields or a Bitcoin advance past $67,000, combined with early indications of legislative progress on the CLARITY Act. Under those conditions, Gemini suggested XRP could test resistance near $1.18 to $1.20.

The Bearish Scenario
The bearish scenario projected a decline to $0.85 to $0.90, which Gemini attributed to potential equity market stress driving Bitcoin below $62,000 and amplifying seasonal downward pressure on XRP. While this is bearish, analysts have projected that a move below $1 could be a precursor to the next breakout.
What’s Next for XRP?
Gemini summarized the current environment as a “holding pattern,” with the most realistic outcome being consolidation in the $0.94 to $1.02 range pending legislative activity. The bullish case also carries very limited upside potential, suggesting XRP won’t see any major upward activity in August.
