XRP market analyst Zach Rector has released what he describes as the “final 2025 XRP timeline,” offering a detailed projection of how XRP’s price could unfold over the next year. His outlook arrives at a time when the token is under heavy selling pressure, alongside widespread weakness across the broader cryptocurrency market.
Despite the current bearish environment, Rector maintains that the ongoing correction forms part of a broader accumulation phase that could lead to a significant uptrend heading into 2025.
Rector’s Final 2025 XRP Timeline
In a recent post on X, Rector presented a timeline that outlines how XRP might transition from its current downtrend to potentially reach a price between $5 and $12 by December 2025. His projection is based on historical price behavior, particularly XRP’s performance during previous election cycles.

The analyst recalled XRP’s trajectory in late 2024, noting that the asset experienced substantial declines before a sharp rebound. Specifically, XRP fell from $0.6540 on Oct. 1, 2024, to $0.4860 by Oct. 25, marking a 25% decline amid broader market uncertainty. At the time, sentiment turned largely negative, with some analysts dismissing the possibility of a major rally.
Veteran investor Raoul Pal notably advised traders to shift focus to other assets, labeling projects like XRP and Cardano (ADA) as unlikely to recover meaningfully. However, XRP later invalidated those bearish calls, rebounding dramatically after the U.S. elections in November 2024. From a price of $0.50 on Nov. 4, it climbed to $3.40 by January 2025, gaining over 580% in just two months.
XRP Poised for Another Run Toward $5–$12
According to Rector, XRP’s recent movement mirrors the same setup that preceded its 2024 surge. This October, XRP has declined by nearly 49%, forming a structure similar to the 60% retracement observed in early 2017 before the start of XRP’s historic 61,000% rally to $3.31 during the 2017–2018 cycle.
Rector applied this historical pattern to XRP’s current logarithmic chart, noting that if the pattern remains consistent, the asset could experience a substantial rise between November and December 2025. He identified November 5, 2025, as a potential turning point for the next major rally.

The analyst also argued that historical price cycles tend to repeat due to the market’s psychological and structural patterns, with similar setups often preceding significant bullish moves. While he did not provide an exact figure, his range of $5 to $12 aligns with other prominent forecasts within the XRP community.
Broader Market Consensus
Rector’s outlook adds to growing expectations among analysts that XRP could record significant gains within the next market cycle. Analyst, EGRAG Crypto introduced the “Valhalla Gate” model, suggesting that XRP could rally as high as $12 under favorable conditions.
Earlier, in December 2024, the same analyst identified intermediate targets between $6 and $8 as possible milestones before a move toward double-digit prices.
While these projections remain speculative, they highlight growing confidence among long-term supporters that XRP’s market structure remains intact despite recent declines. Analysts emphasize that sustained network adoption, favorable regulatory developments, and institutional entry could strengthen the case for renewed growth.
If these factors align, XRP could once again defy bearish expectations, with many investors closely watching the final months of 2025 for confirmation of the next major trend.
