# Where Could XRP Price Go This September as CLARITY Act Nears? Regulations and market dynamics shape XRP's future. - **Source:** [News - Cryptonews](https://brifing.si/source/42333b6f-1c05-4a49-9914-7553e71d2223) - **Published:** 2026-09-02 - **Topic:** [Finance](https://brifing.si/c/finance) - **Original article:** - **On Brifing:** https://brifing.si/s/1d16e37c-0cb7-462a-a5f4-47e8a414dbc0 ## Current State of XRP XRP price is hovering at $1.32, having dropped 7% in the past week. This decline followed August's rally to $1.70. Ripple released 1 billion XRP from escrow and returned 700 million XRP back into escrow. While this is a routine event, it draws investor attention when the price is already low. ## Market Dynamics Bitcoin fell below $77,000, while Ethereum remained under $2,400. US-Iran tensions pushed oil prices higher and reinforced hawkish Fed expectations. This macroeconomic backdrop creates a challenging environment for XRP in the coming month. ## XRP Ledger Activity Cumulative transactions on the XRP Ledger surpassed 3 billion, with a 200% surge in on-chain volume despite the cooling spot price. This signals positive long-term potential for XRP. ## Support and Resistance Levels XRP is consolidating in the $1.32-$1.35 range. Support levels are at $1.31-$1.34, and a clean break could push the price down to $1.20. Resistance levels are at $1.39 and $1.47. ## Impact of the CLARITY Act The CLARITY Act is expected to be voted on in the Senate around September 15. If passed, XRP could rise to $2. However, delays or failure could keep XRP near current support levels. ## Standard Chartered's Forecast Standard Chartered predicts XRP could reach $10 by 2026, but this depends on regulatory clarity. Without it, this target remains theoretical. ## Investor Rotation Delays in the CLARITY Act are causing investors to shift towards assets with shorter, more controllable timelines. This has increased the popularity of presale plays like Maxi Doge. ## Conclusion and Expectations XRP's performance in the coming month will depend on the outcome of the CLARITY Act and macroeconomic conditions. Regulatory clarity and improved market conditions could lead to a significant rally for XRP. ## Sources covering this story - https://cryptonews.com/news/xrp-price-prediction-clarity-act-5/ — --- _Summary written by Brifing from the original reporting.
