Can XRP Break Its August Streak in 2026?

XRP has struggled in August for four consecutive years, but can it break this trend in 2026? Despite its impressive gains in July, which saw a minor 3% increase, XRP's history suggests that August is not a favorable month for the cross-border token. In fact, only four out of 13 Augusts on record have ended higher for XRP.

However, it's worth noting that the asset has enjoyed an impressive streak in July, with eight Julys since 2014 resulting in gains. This trend extends to July 2020, when XRP skyrocketed by over 48%. In 2026, the minor gain of 3% is the lowest increase among previous green Julys.

Ripple's coin rebounded slightly from the June dump, but the broader crypto market remains in a bearish state due to ongoing global uncertainty and inflation fears. As XRP faces its fifth consecutive red August, investors are left wondering if the trend will change this year.
