The second half of 2026 will provide “more constructive conditions” for XRP to potentially surge, according to Nansen crypto analyst Jake Kennis.

Crypto analysts are anticipating XRP’s price to trade sideways heading into the new year, at least until more bullish catalysts emerge.

“We maintain a view that the latter half of 2026 will provide more constructive conditions for risk assets in general, but in the short term, we have a slightly bearish tilt on altcoins until BTC consolidates or forms a bottom,” Nansen senior research analyst Jake Kennis told Cointelegraph.

Kennis is holding off on specific price predictions for 2026 amid market uncertainty but pointed to several catalysts that could drive XRP (XRP) higher, including potential spot ETF approvals, deeper integration with global payment rails, and “increased efforts to make XRP a liquidity or bridge asset.”
