XRP is trading at $2.85, marking a weekly decline of nearly 4.3%. After a sharp rally earlier in 2025, the token has entered a period of consolidation.
Price movements have largely been confined between $2.50 and $3.50, signaling indecision in the market. Despite the dip, the token is holding above its 20-week exponential moving average at $2.75, which continues to act as a crucial support line.
Indicators show a mixed picture. The Bollinger Bands place the upper range at $3.54 and the lower at $1.87, with the token hovering near the middle at $2.70.
According to market observers, a breakout above $3.20 could push the asset toward $3.50, while a decisive fall under $2.70 risks a retest of $2.50. Relative Strength Index sits at 58.8, reflecting a neutral but slightly bullish stance, while the MACD has turned mildly bearish with a small negative crossover.
With September nearing its end, traders expect the token to finish the month between $2.80 and $3.00 unless Bitcoin regains strength and pulls the broader market higher.
Away from price action, the Flare network has introduced a major breakthrough for XRP investors. Flare’s most awaited arrival of FAssets began with FXRP v1.2 and enabled investors to mint FXRP and participate actively in decentralized finance activities.
FAssets will make existing non-smart contract cryptocurrencies DeFi-friendly. All FXRP will have one-to-one XRP backing by way of over-collateralization and will enjoy native data protocols from Flare.
For over a decade, XRP has powered fast and efficient settlement at scale.

FXRP on Flare extends that strength with composability, opening new growth opportunities: XRP as collateral, liquidity, and yield in DeFi.

It opens doors to utilize use cases like trading, lending, stablecoins, and staking backed by audits, community vetting, and monitoring. Minting is capped at 5M during the first week with gradual increases.
Holders can mint directly, trade on SparkDEX or BlazeSwap, or via Luminite and Oxen Flow wallets. Launch incentives include liquidity pool APRs of up to 50% to incentivize activity.
As the token’s price remains in consolidation, FXRP’s release possibly marks the onset of a new chapter for its utility.
Through analysts, such integration into Flare’s ecosystem will help the token make inroads in decentralized finance by targeting lending, borrowing, and yield opportunities it had not been able to tap.
If buying resumes and the resistance at $3.20 is broken, the token could test $3.50 by the end of the month. Conversely, failing to hold above $2.70 would keep pressure on the downside.
