XRP Makes Q3 History with July, August, September All in the Green

This year, XRP price achieved a record: all three months of the third quarter ended with gains, not just the quarter overall.

This distinction is important because in earlier years, a positive quarter could still contain a losing month.

A Historic Financial Quarter for XRP

Previously, XRP's Q3 sometimes concluded in positive territory while one of its months still closed red. According to CryptoRank data, this year completely ended that pattern.

July rose 2%, August added 30%, and September advanced 7.95%, generating a total quarterly increase of more than 43%.

U.S. spot XRP ETFs brought institutional demand that drove the move, assisted by a September short squeeze and ongoing outflows from exchanges. Exchange balances declined from roughly 12.9 billion to 11 billion XRP since April.

XRP now trades at approximately $1.50, with a market capitalization near $95 billion. The price recently broke a descending trendline on the weekly chart that had limited it since July 2025.

Can XRP Price Repeat This Feat in Q4?

Historical data sends mixed signals. October is XRP's weakest month on average, with a mean return of about -4.71% and negative outcomes in both 2024 and 2025. The full fourth quarter, though, is much more promising, with an average gain of 13.3% driven by typically strong November and December results.

Analysts foresee some choppiness before any larger rise, including volatility and sideways trading ranges. Among the key catalysts to watch are Ripple's Swell conference in late October, institutional developments, continuing ETF inflows, and Federal Reserve policy decisions.

A sustained weekly close above $1.70 would buttress the likelihood of gains carrying into November and December.

Now, everything comes down to $1.54.

I’m waiting for an hourly close above $1.54 to confirm the breakout.

If XRP cannot hold its current range, a deeper retreat to the $1.30 to $1.40 support zone could follow. Repeating three consecutive green months requires the asset to first sidestep October's seasonal weakness. The monthly streak has already demonstrated XRP's ability to sustain momentum over an entire quarter.
