XRP returns by year

Each year runs from the last close of the year before to the last close of that year. Bar lengths use a square-root scale so one very large year does not flatten the others.

On average, November has been XRP's strongest month (+57% on average, up in 3 of 7 years) and December the weakest (−17% on average, up in 2 of 7).

For August, October and November the average and the median point opposite ways, which means one or two huge moves decide the average. The median, the typical month, is the safer guide there.

July closed higher in at least three years out of four, but with only 7 to 8 years of data per month that is a pattern in a handful of years, not a rule.

Read this as history, not a forecast. Each month has at most 8 years of data behind it, from a few market cycles, and seasonality that held in those years has often vanished in the next.
