XRP has once again dropped to $1, but our machine learning algorithm suggests the price will sink further by the end of the month.
Finbold AI Agent projects that the cryptocurrency is going to trade at an average price of $0.98 on September 1, 2026, representing a modest 0.85% decline from the levels at press time, August 17.

Among the three models, DeepSeek Chat was the only bullish one, predicting that XRP would actually climb 4.5% to $1.04 by September 1.
DeepSeek was the most bearish, with an XRP price prediction of $0.94, which is a 5.78% drop. ChatGPT’s projection agreed with the average at $0.99.

XRP has been on a steady downard trajectory so far in August, which has brought the price down nearly 8.5% on the monthly chart.
Looking at historical data, however, it appears that August has been a tough period for the asset for five years now, according to the latest MSB Intel data.
For example, XRP lost 8% in August 2025 too. In the same month in 2024, the price dropped 9%. Even more notable were the 2023 and 2022 pullbacks of 27% and 14%, respectively.
However, each of the aforementioned corrections were followed by September rallies. For instance, the 14% drop in August 2022 was followed by a 45% uptick over the following month. In 2023, XRP gained 1% in September, while in the same period in 2024 and 2025 it gained 8% and 3%, respectively.
Of course, this does not prove that XRP momentum will necessarily reverse in the coming weeks, but the trend is nonetheless worth keeping in mind as we approach the end of August.
