It has been suggested that XRP (Ripple) will trade sideways around $1.37 in May without a clear breakthrough.

According to crypto media outlet Finbold on May 1 (local time), the Finbold AI Agent predicted that XRP could close trading at approximately $1.37 on May 31. This is 1.22% lower than the current price, meaning that instead of a clear trend breakout, range-bound consolidation could continue in May, following April.

This forecast utilized several large language models, including Claude Opus 4.6, DeepSeek Chat, Gemini 3 Flash, GPT-5.2, and Grok 4.1. Finbold AI also incorporated key technical indicators such as the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), Relative Strength Index (RSI), and 50-day and 200-day Simple Moving Averages to calculate the price at the end of May.

Forecasts varied among models. Grok 4.1 predicted that XRP could rise by 4.32% to reach $1.45 by May 31, while Claude Opus 4.6 presented the most conservative outlook, suggesting a potential 5.04% decline during the same period. The overall average was closer to a slight correction rather than an increase.

The media outlet cited increased selling pressure as the reason why AI gave a somewhat bearish outlook for XRP. XRP made a gentle attempt to rebound towards the $1.50 supply wall in the first half of April, but its upward momentum weakened over the past two weeks, increasing the possibility of short-term bearishness.

Experts believe that the $1.37 forecast could materialize if XRP fails to turn the $1.50 resistance level into support. Conversely, for a bullish scenario to emerge, an aggressive accumulation by institutional investors and increased activity in the derivatives market must occur simultaneously, according to analysis.
