$XRP’s rapid late August rise, which ensured the token is 27.07% in the green on the monthly chart, appears likely to turn into a slower uptrend in September, based on the forecast made by the Finbold artificial intelligence (AI) agent.

Among the six AI models involved, Google’s (NASDAQ: GOOGL) Gemini 3.5 Flash proved the most bullish, as it set its price target at $1.49 for an 8.39% rally during the coming month.
China’s most recognizable artificial intelligence platform, DeepSeek, was on the other end of the spectrum with a bearish forecast that $XRP will drop 1.46% to $1.35.

The SpaceX (NASDAQ: SPCX) model Grok 4.5 fell roughly in the middle of the range and estimated the token would rise 4.27% to $1.43. OpenAI’s two ChatGPT versions – Luna and Terra – also proved conservative, with a 3.65% and 4.38% predicted rallies, respectively.
Finally, ChatGPT-5.6 Sol was almost as optimistic as Gemini, as it set its price target at $1.48: 8.03% above $1.38 at press time.
Could $XRP soar in early September?
Meanwhile, some human cryptocurrency analysts believe that the next $XRP rally might not only come faster, but also lead to significantly larger gains.
As Finbold reported on August 31, Ali Martinez, a popular trading expert on X, believes to have identified the token breaking out of a symmetrical descending triangular pattern.
Though the early morning performance briefly appeared to have negated the assessment after $XRP dropped toward $1.34, the subsequent rebound to $1.38 seemingly confirmed the breakout.
Additionally, according to Martinez, the rally could take the token to a new local high of $1.70 – 23.19% above the press time price and 18.89% higher than the Finbold AI average estimate of $1.43.
Notably, even if $XRP reaches the short-term high, it remains possible the cryptocurrency will find itself at $1.43 by September 30, 2026, though such a trajectory could indicate a renewed downtrend, rather than a continuation of the uptrend.
