GrokAI says XRP price will hit this target by December 31, 2024

Though a relative latecomer to the 2024 cryptocurrency bull market , XRP has, nonetheless, performed remarkably and is, in total, 304.70% in the green year-to-date (YTD). Despite overall strength and multiple exceptionally bullish forecasts , the token also gave some cause for concern as it, on December 17, reached something of a top near $2.50. Indeed, it took XRP approximately three weeks to climb from $0.50 to $2.70, but has subsequently corrected and has been trading near $2.50 for about two weeks and is, at press time, changing hands at $2.48.

Grok sets XRP price target for December 31, 2024 In its reply. Grok proved quick to assess XRP and the recent associated developments positively, though it also cautioned about volatility for the token and the broader cryptocurrency market . The artificial intelligence ( AI ) model also noted that much of XRP’s price action has been driven by significant news, such as the recent developments in the legal battle against Ripple and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and within the SEC itself.

Therefore, the AI explained that it considers $2.50 the most plausible forecast for the year’s end. Grok provided its XRP price target for December 31, 2024.

The AI added that once this outside influence is accounted for and resistance levels and market volatility are factored in, stagnation until at least the start of 2025 becomes the most reasonable if conservative, scenario.

Specifically, Gary Gensler – the controversial SEC Chair – is set to resign and be replaced by, most likely, the crypto-friendly Paul Atkins. Though XRP already rallied on the confirmation Gensler would be resigning, the token is likely to surge again once the good news turns into reality.
