Google AI Predicts XRP Price Crash Without CLARITY Act Passage
The Google Gemini AI has made two predictions about the future price of XRP. In a full-blown crypto bull market, it says the price could rise as high as $8 in 2026, with a firm bullish target of $4.50 by January 1, 2027. However, following yesterday's failed CLARITY Act vote, which fell short of the 60 votes needed to advance the bill, the AI calls for a $0.6 target for Ripple if the CLARITY Act or similar legislation is not passed before the year is up.
XRP/USD is currently around $1.28, after a sharp sell-off following the Senate's CLARITY Act vote. This makes the target roughly a 3.5× move from current levels, and around 6.5x for the full-blown bull market prediction.
The regulatory landscape is still in play, even though the recent Senate vote on the CLARITY Act failed. The vote was procedural, and reconsideration is still possible, especially if Congress outlines a market-structure framework by 2026, which could ease regulatory concerns as crypto liquidity grows.
