An Ethereum community figure has revealed where he believes the XRP price could reach in the current quarter, Q4 2025.
This presentation came from Leshka (leshka.eth), a prominent trader and market commentator who has persistently maintained a bullish stance on Ethereum. Most recently, Leshka turned his attention to XRP, and his outlook is especially noteworthy.
According to him, XRP could hit a maximum price of $9 in the current quarter, Q4 2025. Leshka’s prediction is audacious, considering it comes at a time when XRP has underperformed. Specifically, XRP is trailing in the ongoing recovery effort across the broader market.
Bullish XRP Q4 2025 Target Despite Current Struggles
While XRP has gained 3% in the past seven days, market data confirms that it is the second-worst-performing asset on the top 10 list within this period. Specifically, Bitcoin (BTC), which typically sees less volatility, has outperformed XRP, boasting a more impressive 8.8% increase over the last week. Meanwhile, Ethereum (ETH) has surged 11.68%.
XRP’s underperformance comes as it faces intense selling pressure around the $3 psychological region. The altcoin has struggled at this mark, failing to break above the resistance here decisively. Despite this, Leshka has maintained a bullish stance, predicting that XRP could outperform most of the market by year-end.
Notably, he expects XRP to reach between $8 and $9 this quarter. From the current price of $2.96, Leshka’s target projects an ambitious 170% to 204% increase for XRP. Interestingly, the target aligns with a previous analysis from Leshka in which he leveraged market structures to predict XRP’s end-of-year (EOY) price.
For context, in July 2025, Leshka pointed out that XRP had observed a breakout above a six-month triangle similar to what it witnessed before the explosive surge in 2017.

According to him, XRP is observing the 2017 fractal, featuring a similar pattern and RSI reading. Leshka said XRP soared 20x to $3.3 in 2017, but this time, it will hit $8.5 by year-end. This is in sync with the recent $8 to $9 prediction for Q4 2025.
Bitcoin and Ethereum Q4 2025 Targets
Meanwhile, besides XRP, Leshka also presented price predictions for other crypto assets for Q4 2025. Specifically, the market analyst predicts Bitcoin to reach a price range of $225,000 to $240,000, representing a potential increase of 81% to 93% from the current price of $124,179. Essentially, Leshka expects XRP to outperform BTC between now and EOY.
For Ethereum, the trader sets a price target of $11,000 to $13,000. With ETH currently changing hands for $4,676, Leshka’s projection eyes a gain of 135% to 178%. While this beats Bitcoin’s projected increase, it shows that Leshka is more bullish on XRP than even Ethereum.
