XRP Records Highest Quarterly Close in History, Here’s What It Means For Price Action

Despite the recent price struggles, market data confirms XRP recorded its highest quarterly close in history at the end of September 2025.

Prominent market commentator Mr. Xoom first highlighted this impressive milestone in a post on X today, confirming that XRP has actually been on an uptrend over the past three months despite the prevalent bearish sentiments that have engulfed the community.

XRP Records Highest Quarterly Close 

For context, XRP closed September 2025 at a price of $2.846, representing a bullish end to the monthly candle and the 3-month (quarterly) candle. With this price, XRP closed September 2025 with a 2.55% increase, slightly making up for the 8.15% decline it witnessed in August 2025.

Moreover, the $2.846 value represented XRP’s third-highest monthly candle close in history, only behind the $3.03 close recorded by the altcoin in January 2025 and the more recent $3.02 close from July 2025.

Meanwhile, with XRP recently observing the end of Q3 2025, the $2.846 price marked the altcoin’s highest quarterly close in its history, beating the previous record of $2.23 recorded in Q2 2025. This is especially important, as the closing price for Q3 2025 represented XRP’s resistance for Q4 2024, indicating that XRP has conquered this area and established a support structure around it.

Notably, having begun Q3 2025 at $2.23, the recent closing price meant that XRP gained an impressive 27.16% in the quarter. This makes it the best-performing quarter so far this year.

XRP Performs Best in Q4

Interestingly, further data shared by Mr. Xoom also reveals that XRP tends to perform best during Q4, the last quarter of each year. Market commentators have often commended XRP for its susceptibility to rapid price spikes when investors least expect. Notably, most of these rapid price spikes have occurred in Q4.

For instance, the latest of such explosive gains came in Q4 2024 (from October to December 2024), when XRP soared by an impressive 240% to close above the $2 mark. Before then, Q4 2023 also saw some mild gains despite XRP mostly underperforming throughout that year.

While the fourth quarter of each year from 2018 to 2022 was marred by losses, this was largely due to a fundamental weakness in XRP’s price structure, which some attribute to suppression techniques. Before that, XRP observed another explosive surge in Q4 2017, when it rallied 1,064%. This represented its highest-ever quarterly gain.

Notably, in Q4 2014, XRP witnessed another 426% increase and a 150% rise the year before that. Overall, on average, XRP has an average increase of 140% in the fourth quarter, making it its best-performing quarter historically.

Mr. Xoom’s commentary suggests that the outlook as XRP enters another fourth quarter is predominantly bullish. If XRP follows the 140% average increase in this quarter, it would end the year with a price of $6.81, representing a new all-time high and marking a yearly increase of 228%.
