TheCryptoBasic has shared a bold prediction from popular XRP community figure and market analyst Alex Cobb. According to Cobb, “XRP season has started,” and he believes the XRP price is now on a clear path to hitting $4.35 by the end of July 2025.
This prediction came just after XRP broke past the $2 price range for the first time this month and surged beyond $2.3 for the first time in nearly three months. XRP continued that run by touching the $2.4 mark, a level it had not seen since May.
Cobb’s full statement, posted on X and reported by TheCryptoBasic, paints a confident picture of XRP’s near-term potential. He declared that XRP season officially began on July 9 and expects the bullish trend to carry through the month. His prediction is that the XRP price will rise to $4.35 before the month ends.
At the time he made this call, XRP was trading at $2.42. That means it would need to gain about 79% in the next few weeks to meet Cobb’s target. While that’s a big move, Cobb believes the momentum is already in motion, especially with Bitcoin also hitting a fresh all-time high above $112,000.

Why the Ripple Price Is Outperforming the Market
TheCryptoBasic explained that this XRP rally is not just riding on the back of the broader crypto market. Ripple itself has been making waves with major partnerships and growing institutional presence. One of the biggest moves was a new partnership between Ripple and BNY Mellon, the oldest-running bank in the United States.
On top of that, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse recently spoke before Congress, which helped raise more attention and confidence around the project. These events have created strong momentum that is pushing the XRP price higher even faster than most altcoins.
At the moment, XRP is the second-highest gainer among the top 10 cryptocurrencies and ranks fourth among the top 20. This level of performance has given more weight to Cobb’s view that XRP is now entering a new growth phase.
This Is Not the First $4 XRP Price Prediction
While Cobb’s call is getting a lot of attention, he is not the first analyst to predict a $4 price point for XRP. Earlier this year, Velo Maxi projected that XRP could hit $4 after reclaiming the $3 mark. He believed XRP would bounce from $2 and use $3 as a launchpad to hit higher levels in February. That prediction did not come true, but it showed the strong belief some analysts had in Ripple’s potential even back then.
Now, with XRP climbing again and outperforming the rest of the market, Cobb has come forward with a more specific timeline and a renewed sense of confidence. He even admitted in a recent post that he regrets not buying more XRP when it was at $0.50.

The current Ripple price rally is being driven by both market momentum and real developments within the XRP ecosystem. Alex Cobb’s prediction of a $4.35 XRP price by the end of July may seem ambitious, but with the current pace and growing institutional activity, it cannot be ruled out.
