THE LATEST CRYPTO NEWS

The XRP price is drawing attention this week as traders watch for signs of a potential upward move. Market analyst Egrag Crypto says the token is pressing hard against a falling wedge pattern and could be close to breaking out. According to the analyst, the lines are converging on the current price, and this could be the stage where momentum shifts quickly. XRP Price Pushes Toward Breakout From Falling Wedge Egrag Crypto says XRP is standing on the edge of what he calls a “significant structural breakout.” For weeks, the token has been moving inside a falling wedge, a formation that often shows pressure building before a breakout. Currently, that pattern is tightening, and the lines are closing in on the price. He believes this is the moment when bulls need to step in with strength.

Momentum is starting to emerge in real time, and every slight upward push indicates that buyers are poised to test the resistance. The wedge formation makes this moment more critical because it often signals that a big move is near. According to his analysis, the XRP chart is no longer in a quiet phase. Instead, it is pressing against a level where pressure could burst. If the wedge breaks to the upside, XRP could start a new bullish phase that traders have been waiting for. Egrag’s message to the XRP community is it is time to rally.  $3.13 Becomes The Key Level To Watch Even with the breakout forming, Egrag Crypto points out that one level matters more than the rest. That number is $3.13, and it is the point that could decide the entire move. He explains that without a clear break above $3.13, the setup will not confirm its strength. But if bulls manage to push past it, XRP could open the door to a new wave of powerful upward momentum. Related Reading: Could A Dogecoin ETF Be Launched This Week? This Expert Thinks So Egrag makes it clear that $3.13 is not just a chart number. It is the barrier between a market that is still uncertain and one that is ready to operate. Crossing it would prove that bulls are in control, and it could build the trust traders need to stay in the rally. For many, this price line has already become the target to watch day and night. He says the XRP community must “stay steady and strong” as the market approaches this key level. In his view, this is a turning point that could lift the token far higher than people expect. “Together we rise,” he reminds holders, pointing out that unity could make the difference when the breakout comes.

With the recent market recovery, the XRP price has been able to confirm an important Wave 3 move that was earlier highlighted by crypto analyst Dark Defender. Since this move has been completed, it is now time for the cryptocurrency to move into the next stage of the analysis. At this junction, there is a simple roadblock to a continuation of the rally and that lies at $3.13. In the follow-up analysis, Dark Defender reveals what could happen if the XRP price were to either break or get rejected at this level. What To Expect From The XRP Price In the analysis, Dark Defender highlighted that there is a possibility of some downside after the XRP price hits the 3rd Wave target. This 3rd Wave target sits between $3.01 and $3.07, and the initial run-up on Tuesday had seen the cryptocurrency quickly clear this level. Related Reading: XRP Price Setting Up For Next Leg With Expected Targets Reaching $19.27 The next wave that could trigger the expected downtrend is Wave 4, which is historically bearish. This is not out of the ordinary, as a bullish wave, such as the 3rd Wave, will usually see a correction. This correction can often present an opportunity for bulls to reload while the Wave 4 plays out. However, there is another important wave in this mix, and that is the E Wave. As the crypto analyst explains, for this wave to play out, it would be entirely dependent on where the price goes. From here, the next major level is $3.13, and that is the make-or-break level. Now, if the bulls are able to completely break the resistance at $3.13 and continue further, then it would invalidate any bearish wave. But in the case of a full rejection and the price bouncing back, then the E wave could be triggered for the XRP price.

This would go through all of the important Fibonacci levels, and the crypto analyst explains that it could send the XRP price tumbling back down to as low as $2.74. Nevertheless, for now, the D wave remains in play, suggesting stronger dominance from the bulls. Once the Wave 4 is completed, then the last and final wave, the Wave 5, is expected to play out. This is historically the most bullish wave and could be responsible for a break above $3.13. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

Ripple has once again caught headlines after quietly transferring 15 million XRP tokens just hours after securing a legal win against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Related Reading: Institutional Adoption Rises: 21X Brings Chainlink Into Europe’s Tokenized Securities Market The transaction, recorded on Ledger #98,741,614, carried a negligible fee of 0.000015 XRP, showcasing the network’s efficiency. While Ripple has not provided an official statement, analysts suggest the move could be tied to liquidity preparation for exchanges, settlement mechanisms, or the expansion of Ripple’s On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) corridors. The timing, so close to its courtroom victory, has fueled speculation that Ripple is positioning itself for a new phase of institutional adoption. Whales Watch Closely as XRP Price Slips Despite the optimism around Ripple’s legal clarity, XRP has not been immune to market pressure. Currently, XRP trades at $2.96, down 1.67% in the past 24 hours, with daily trading volume falling over 26% to $4.94 billion. Analysts warn that this decline in both price and volume could signal waning short-term momentum. XRP's price trends to the upside on the daily chart. Source: XRPUSD on Tradingview Chart data highlights a critical battleground for XRP between $0.65–$0.68 resistance levels and support zones at $0.60 and $0.55. A decisive breakout above $0.70 could push XRP toward $0.80, while failure to hold support risks deeper corrections. Notably, whale activity and institutional interest continue to build, with XRP futures open interest surging to $7.94 billion, underscoring expectations of heightened volatility. ETFs, RLUSD, and the Bigger Picture Crypto analyst Zach Rector recently highlighted that Ripple’s restructuring of institutional XRP sales during its SEC case could shape the framework for potential XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs). With ETF issuers unable to source XRP directly from Ripple, centralized exchanges and OTC desks may become the main supply channels, creating added pressure on secondary market liquidity. Meanwhile, the adoption of Ripple USD (RLUSD) in Japan, facilitated through a partnership with SBI Group, has strengthened XRP’s fundamentals. RLUSD requires XRP for transaction fees, further boosting on-chain demand. Whale accumulation and growing institutional exposure through platforms like the CME also support a more bullish long-term outlook.

XRP has entered a shocking new phase of development, with reports confirming its ledger’s use in debt tokenization. This development comes when the United States (US) faces a multitrillion-dollar debt problem, drawing attention to the XRP Ledger’s (XRPL) potential role in modernizing how debt is managed and settled on a larger scale. As adoption for XRPL accelerates, its integration into debt-related infrastructure highlights how blockchain technology is beginning to intersect with the world’s largest financial challenges.  XRP Ledger: A Potential National Debt Solution Crypto analyst SMQKE has alerted the crypto community to a shocking World Economic Forum (WEF) report, highlighting the XRP Ledger’s active use in tokenizing debt instruments. The report shared in an X social media post on Monday disclosed that Aurum Equity Partners has launched the world’s first combined private equity and tokenized debt fund, valued at $1 billion, using XRPL as its foundation. Related Reading: Ripple’s XRP Ledger Just Introduced A Pivotal Update In Its Quest For Dominance This fund was designed to fuel global data center investment, enhancing liquidity and investor access through secondary markets. Moreover, the launch of the tokenized debt fund is being hailed as a turning point because it combines Zoniqx’s tokenization technology with the speed, security, and efficiency of the XRP Ledger.  Crypto analyst ‘X Finance Bull’ also described this recent development as a reconstruction of market architecture, where private equity, debt, and blockchain technology converge into a single system. He argued that XRPL’s ability to link equity and debt tokenization marks the beginning of a new financial standard—one that lowers barriers and offers exposure to markets previously reserved for institutions.  More interestingly, as concerns grow over the US national debt, now exceeding $36 trillion, the potential for the XRP Ledger to be used as a solution remains uncertain. In theory, by enabling the tokenization of debt on a secure and transparent network, XRPL introduces the possibility of transforming trillion-dollar debt obligations into a more liquid, tradeable, and efficiently settled asset.  XRP’s Expanding Role And Bullish Market Outlook In light of XRPL’s latest debt tokenization breakthrough, X Finance Bull released an optimistic forecast for XRP’s price performance. He argued that with the ledger now carrying a $1 billion tokenized equity and debt fund, entire sectors within this market are beginning to migrate onto XRP rails. As a result, this positions XRPL as the backbone of a new financial system.  Related Reading: Analyst Predicts The XRP Price If 10% Of Global Assets Are Tokenized The crypto analyst has also indicated that XRP’s price potential is far greater than current expectations. While some anticipate a move toward $10, X Finance Bull projects that XRP could rise into the four-figure range as tokenized debt and equity markets expand into trillions of dollars. Whether or not the forecasted target proves accurate, the recent Aurum debt fund launch underscores that XRPL is already operating at the intersection of traditional finance and blockchain technology.

The Nasdaq has filed a proposed rule change with the SEC to list tokenized stocks, marking a significant integration of blockchain technology into traditional finance (TradFi). Market experts have predicted that XRP is one of the crypto assets that stand to benefit massively from this move.  Nasdaq Files To List Tokenized Stocks Nasdaq has filed with the SEC to allow investors to trade tokenized stocks on its platform. The exchange has proposed that these securities could be traded in either their traditional form, without using blockchain technology, or in their tokenized form, utilizing blockchain technology. Furthermore, the platform proposes that shares of these tokenized securities should be traded in the same order book as the traditional ones and with the same execution priority.  Related Reading: Analyst Predicts The XRP Price If 10% Of Global Assets Are Tokenized Meanwhile, Nasdaq proposes that the market participants who wish to clear and settle their trades will note their preference by selecting a flag that the exchange will designate for this purpose. When the market participant selects the tokenized flag, Nasdaq will then communicate this to The Depository Trust Company, which is in charge of clearing trades. This move means that blockchain networks, such as Ethereum, Solana, and the XRP Ledger (XRPL), could experience increased adoption as companies transition to tokenizing their stocks. Notably, Galaxy Digital, last week, became the first Nasdaq-listed company to tokenize its common stock on Solana.  Experts such as Tom Lee have made a case for why Ethereum will be the go-to platform for companies to tokenize their stocks on. Meanwhile, Solana and the XRP Ledger (XRPL) also stand out due to their speed and cost-efficiency. Solana recently passed the Alpenglow upgrade proposal, which will reduce transaction finality. Meanwhile, the XRPL has introduced new compliance amendments, which will incentivize institutions to adopt the network.  All Tokenized Assets Will “Route Through XRP” In an X post, Versan Aljarrah, the founder of Black Swan Capitalist, commented on Nasdaq’s filing to list tokenized stocks and declared that all tokenized assets will eventually route and settle through XRP as the bridge currency. He added that this means trillions in value will move on-chain, possibly through the XRP Ledger.  Related Reading: Pundit Warns XRP Investors Not To Sell Their Tokens In The Next 3 Months Aljarrah reiterated that all value flows through XRP. Notably, crypto analyst Costa recently predicted that the XRP price could reach $473,214 if 10% of global assets get tokenized on the XRPL.  This came as Ripple predicted that 10% of global assets will be tokenized by 2030. Ripple has so far made great strides in its tokenization push, although no notable stock has been tokenized on the XRPL as of yet. However, it is worth noting that Ondo Finance’s tokenized U.S. Treasuries fund is integrated on the XRPL.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.95, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Technical analyst Rupert, host of the Allincrypto podcast, highlighted a major bullish setup that could send the cryptocurrency on a long rally. According to his latest analysis shared on social media, XRP’s chart is forming a structure that points to an eventual price target of $19.27, with the move being supported by its late 2024 breakout and its current positioning below its previous all-time high. Breakout From Long-Term Triangle Formation XRP has mostly been trading around $2.80 over the past week, ranging between $2.77 and $3.02. However, the cryptocurrency has managed to break above the $3 barrier in the most recent 24-hour period with a gain of approximately 3.9%.  Related Reading: XRP RSI Remains Bullish As Support Levels Hold, Price Eyes Break Above $3.6 From a wider perspective, XRP’s latest price action is part of a much larger story that has been unfolding since late 2024. Leaving the shorter timeframes to higher timeframes shows that the cryptocurrency is currently consolidating just below its former 2018 all-time high. Particularly, technical analysis of a longer timeframe on the two-week candlestick chart, which was posted by Rupert on X, shows that XRP is now consolidating after breaking out of a multi-year triangle formation that dates back to late 2024. He noted that nearly two years ago, his team had already predicted a breakout from this formation, and since then, XRP has delivered more than 400% gains from that initial forecast. However, XRP is now back into the zone of its 2018 all-time high after reaching $3.65 in July, and this level is now acting as resistance. In his video, Rupert noted that it is common for assets to stall or retrace slightly after testing such important levels. Therefore, the way XRP is consolidating is less a sign of weakness and more of a setup for continuation. Furthermore, he noted that the chart is shaping into a cup and handle formation, which is another bullish pattern that contributes to the possibility of another strong rally. Path To $19.27 Still On Track Looking at the bigger picture, Rupert noted that the triangle projection is still pointing to a target of $19.27. Not only does the price confirm that, in regard to direction, the way XRP is trading on the smaller time frames and how it is interacting with a key level of significance at its previous all-time high is telling, in fact, that it’s got further upside to come. Related Reading: XRP Price Could See 20% Bounce To $3.4 If This Trendline Holds Additionally, he indicated that confirming signals from the total altcoin market capitalization (Total 3) reinforce the bullish scenario. This is important, as the total altcoin market cap registered its highest monthly close ever in August. As long as XRP bulls maintain its price above $2.8 to $3, then it is still on track to reach the projected $19.27 price target. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $3.02, up by 3.9% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Austin Hilton, a well-known crypto analyst, has issued a fresh warning to XRP investors, urging them not to “get caught” amid the cryptocurrency’s latest market movement. With XRP showing signs of volatility and uncertainty surrounding its next major price direction, the analyst’s cautionary message serves as a reminder for traders to stay vigilant and patient.  The Trap XRP Investors Need To Avoid Hilton recently shared a video report on X social media, cautioning XRP holders about a common trap that they often fall into during extended consolidation phases. He explained that XRP has been trading sideways within a narrow range of $2.80 and $3.30 for roughly 48 days now. While some investors may interpret this stagnation as a sign of weakness or lack of future potential, Hilton argues the opposite.  Related Reading: XRP Price Could See 20% Bounce To $3.4 If This Trendline Holds According to him, periods of consolidation should not be viewed as setbacks but as essential, healthy stages in an asset’s price cycle and long-term growth. Drawing on his 30 years of investment experience, Hilton noted that both stocks and cryptocurrencies naturally progress through phases of upward surges, corrections, and sideways movement. He added that the real risk comes when investors misinterpret a consolidation phase as the end of growth, leading them to prematurely sell their holdings out of boredom, frustration, or anxiety.  The analyst further emphasized that sideways trading in cryptocurrencies is often a precursor to significant upward moves. He highlighted XRP’s performance earlier in July, when, after a similar period of consolidation, the altcoin rallied by more than 61%. To him, this serves as evidence that XRP uses these quiet pullback periods to build strong support levels before advancing to higher price ranges.  Building on this point, Hilton advised new and inexperienced investors not to fall for the consolidation trick and abandon their positions, as doing so could mean missing out on potential gains. He also reminded holders that external market events such as the upcoming FOMC Meeting could act as a catalyst for a price breakout after extended periods of calm.  Expert Predicts XRP Explosive Surge To $6 In other news, crypto market expert Gordon offered a bold projection for XRP’s price trajectory, predicting a potentially rapid surge to $6. He observed that XRP has been consolidating at its current level for months, suggesting that it is preparing for a strong breakout to new all-time highs.  Related Reading: XRP To Surpass Bitcoin? Pundit Reveals What Will Drive The Takeover The analyst’s monthly chart supports his bullish outlook. It shows steady upward momentum, with increasingly larger candlesticks that reflect strong buying pressure and renewed confidence among investors. Despite seeing a slight surge from the $2.8 range to $2.95, at the time of writing, XRP would still have to rally by approximately 103% to reach the projected $6 target. Fortunately, the explosive candle highlighted in Gordon’s chart demonstrates that the altcoin has entered a stage where price accelerations could happen swiftly.  Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP price is facing hurdles and struggling to clear the $3.00 resistance. The price is now trading above $2.90 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a bullish trend line forming with support at $2.930 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The pair could continue to rise if it stays above the $2.860 zone. XRP Price Gains Traction XRP price managed to stay above the $2.850 level and started a fresh increase, beating Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price climbed above the $2.880 and $2.90 resistance levels.

A clear move above the $3.00 resistance might send the price toward the $3.050 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $3.120 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $3.150. Another Decline? If XRP fails to clear the $2.980 resistance zone, it could continue to move down.

Despite recent volatility and price swings, XRP has remained firm above critical support levels, with technical indicators suggesting a possible breakout. Crypto analysts who closely monitor momentum on the daily time frame, particularly the Relative Strength Index (RSI), indicate that XRP bulls are regaining strength, paving the way for a potential move above the $ 3.60 mark.  RSI Turns Bullish As XRP Eyes Higher Levels In his latest analysis on X social media, crypto market expert Dark Defender noted that XRP’s price structure is holding steady above essential support zones, with the $2.85 level emerging as a pivotal point in the current cycle. Previously identified as strong support, $ 2.85 has now flipped into a resistance barrier.  Related Reading: XRP Price Could See 20% Bounce To $3.4 If This Trendline Holds A sustained push above this threshold could unlock a path toward $3 and beyond, ultimately setting the stage for a potential retest of the $3.6 weekly resistance line. At the time of writing, the price of XRP is $2.87, meaning a surge above $ 3.60 would represent a significant increase of more than 25%.  On the daily chart, XRP has completed a corrective ABC pattern, with the recent bounce from the $2.74 level marking the start of a new upward wave. The RSI indicator has begun trending upward from oversold conditions, signaling renewed buying momentum. This bullish divergence strengthens the case for a potential breakout rally, provided that price maintains its footing above the retracement levels of 23.6% and 38.2%.  Currently, momentum indicators suggest that XRP’s next target lies in the $2.85 and $3 zone, with the possibility of a stronger increase if volume supports the move. Dark Defender’s analysis underscores that although XRP’s price action remains slow and consolidating, its structure continues to align with bullish technical signals, reinforcing expectations of further upside in the near term.   Analyst Signals Caution As XRP Exchange Reserves Spike Crypto analyst Greg Miller has announced on X that XRP exchange reserves have surged to a one-year high—a development often interpreted as a sign of selling pressure. Sharp increases in reserves typically suggest that more tokens are being moved onto centralized platforms, with investors possibly preparing for liquidation. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts The XRP Price If 10% Of Global Assets Are Tokenized The CryptoQuant‘s chart reveals a clear divergence between XRP’s exchange holdings and price action. While the cryptocurrency is consolidating around the $2.7 to $2.9 range, the sharp uptick in reserves reflects growing caution among investors. Historically, similar trends have preceded price corrections, and XRP’s earlier breakdown from the $2.74 level confirms that bearish momentum has not fully dissipated.  According to Miller, the surge in reserves introduces a significant risk in September. While some technicals favor an upside breakout, the heavy supply in exchanges could cap gains prematurely, stalling any meaningful rally. Without a surge in demand to absorb inflows, Miller argues that XRP’s recovery toward $3 or higher remains unlikely. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

New updates have been made to Ripple’s XRP Ledger (XRPL) as the network looks to dominate and gain more traction. This is also a positive for XRP, which serves as the network’s bridge currency.  Ripple’s XRP Ledger Gets A New Update In an X post, XRP validator Vet revealed that the credentials amendment on the XRP Ledger is now active. He explained that credentials can be applied to attest to compliance requirements, such as KYC and AML, for a user or institution and issued to their decentralized identity. This helps to further build trust in the network.   Related Reading: Ripple Vs. SWIFT Battle Heating Up As Exec Lands Major Blow To XRP Vet also noted that the amendment has all been done natively on the XRP Ledger. Notably, this update is part of a larger move to enable compliance amendments on the network. With decentralized identities and credentials implemented, Vet indicated that their next focus is to work on the permissioned domains and permissioned DEX. Ripple and other XRP Ledger stakeholders aim to utilize these compliance amendments to attract more institutions to the network, enabling them to adhere to traditional finance (TradFi) standards even on-chain. This also comes as the network aims to become the go-to for tokenization. Ripple recently stated that 10% of global assets will become tokenized by 2030, and is undoubtedly looking to tap into this trillion-dollar market. Ripple Engineer Breaks Down Significance Of This Update In an X post, Ripple engineer Kenny explained that the credentials update gives developers and businesses a way to handle identity checks and compliance requirements directly on the XRP Ledger. With these, they do not need to approve each account one by one manually.  The Ripple engineer noted that traditionally, verifying user credentials like KYC requires multiple checks across different platforms.  Related Reading: Pundit Says Ripple Is The New SWIFT — Here’s What Is Driving It Kenny remarked that this process isn’t only inefficient but also increases privacy risks because sensitive information has to be shared multiple times. As such, this makes the XRP Ledger credentials update vital. The Ripple engineer revealed that this feature enables credentials to be issued, stored, and verified natively on the XRPL.  He noted the benefits of how this allows users to prove a required criterion without undergoing repeated verification. Kenny also stated that this will improve the onboard process and enhance security, while maintaining privacy. The Ripple engineer further gave an example of what a typical flow will look like using this credentials feature.  A business will define the credentials it requires, such as the KYC, then a trusted issuer creates and signs that credential. The user then accepts and stores these credentials in their XRP Ledger account. That way, the credential is checked on-chain whenever the user interacts with the business. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.83, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP has drawn plenty of comparisons over the past few months, but one analyst believes the best way to understand its future is to look at Amazon’s past. Nick Anderson, better known as BULLRUNNERS on the social media platform X, says XRP is going through the same kind of consolidation Amazon faced in 2010, and it still has the potential to rally to $200. The key difference, however, is the patience investors will need before this rally can happen. Related Reading: XRP Poised For Amazon-Like Boom? Analyst Predicts $200 Rally Amazon’s Breakout Holds The Clues For XRP XRP’s price action in the past seven days has been highlighted by a trading range between $2.8 and $2.9. The cryptocurrency now seems stuck within this range, but it has managed to hold above $2.8 for the meantime. Interestingly, Anderson likened this consolidation move to a similar retest of a previous high by the Amazon stock (AMZN) back in 2010.  In his post, Anderson highlighted how Amazon stock spent roughly 3,800 days consolidating after the dot-com crash before finally breaking past its previous high and entering a meteoric run. However, before entering into this meteoric run, it consolidated for a few months in 2010 just after breaking above its previous high during the dot-com bubble.  According to Anderson, XRP’s current structure is tracing out a massive cup and handle that mirrors this exact Amazon stock setup, with the cryptocurrency now using past highs as support in the same way Amazon did. Just as Amazon transformed once it cleared resistance, Anderson believes XRP could follow a similar breakout trajectory that could eventually push its price above $100, and possibly as high as $200. Short-Term Expectations Between $5 And $30 In his assessment, Anderson noted that this predicted rally to $200 might take many years to come to fruition. Comparing today’s price of around $2.80 to Amazon’s $5 launch point before its monumental rally, this would probably be the best time for XRP investors to accumulate for the long term. For younger investors, holding XRP for the next 10 to 15 years could prove transformative, with as little as 10,000 XRP amounting to $1 million in value if the cryptocurrency eventually climbs to $100. Despite his long-term forecast, Anderson is more cautious about what XRP might achieve this cycle. He stated that while a push to $100 in the near term would be “absolutely insane”, a more realistic target for this bull run could lie between $5 and $30. After that, he expects another correction to set in before the rally resumes sometime around the end of the decade.  Related Reading: MemeCore Explodes 3,800% For ATH — But Is A Collapse Around The Corner? Anderson also left room for a more explosive scenario, noting that XRP could deliver what he called a “giga rally” if liquidity rushes into the market faster than expected. This is based on the growing anticipation around the adoption of ISO 20022 by the US Federal Reserve. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.81.

Reports have disclosed that Ripple has moved to introduce its US dollar–backed stablecoin, RLUSD, into African markets through deals with established regional fintech firms. Related Reading: American Bitcoin, Backed By Trump, Ends Nasdaq Debut Up 17% The token, which debuted in late 2024, now has a market capitalization of close to $710 million. That figure matters because it signals real capital backing the push, even if the coin still sits well below the largest stablecoins. Fintech Partners Open Doors Ripple’s rollout leans on three major fintech partners: Chipper Cash, VALR, and Yellow Card. These platforms already serve millions of users across the continent. According to company statements, the partnerships give RLUSD instant rails into retail and business flows without Ripple having to build consumer trust from scratch. Ham Serunjogi, CEO of Chipper Cash, said RLUSD is “uniquely positioned to accelerate institutional blockchain adoption across Africa and beyond.” That line frames the push as aimed more at banks and big payments firms than at casual traders. 1/ The next chapter for $RLUSD starts in Africa. → https://t.co/6gRqrdNwSW We’re proud to bring our trusted, USD-backed stablecoin to the continent with new partners @chippercashapp, @VALRdotcom, and @YellowCard_App. ???? Together, we’ll unlock new potential for cross-border… — Ripple (@Ripple) September 4, 2025 Humanitarian Pilots Take Center Stage Based on reports, Ripple is also linking RLUSD to humanitarian work in Kenya. Mercy Corps Ventures is running pilot programs that use the stablecoin to power blockchain-based insurance products for drought and rainfall risks. These pilots are small. But they are meant to show how stablecoins can back practical financial services where climate shocks hit farming communities. For many African users, access to reliable, low-cost payment rails matters more than the token’s total market value. Listings And Institutional Aims RLUSD has been listed on a growing set of exchanges, including Gemini, Kraken, Bitso, Bitstamp, Bullish, LMAX, Uphold, Mercado Bitcoin, Independent Reserve, and CoinMENA. That distribution lets institutions tap RLUSD for payments, settlement, and collateral management. Jack McDonald, SVP of Stablecoins at Ripple, said demand is growing across payments, tokenization, and collateral markets. The listings show Ripple wants the coin to be usable on familiar trading and custody platforms, which can shorten the path to institutional adoption. Related Reading: XRP Poised For Amazon-Like Boom? Analyst Predicts $200 Rally On-Chain Activity Shows Momentum, But Gaps Remain Meanwhile, on-chain metrics show rising activity. Artemis data points to monthly transaction volumes climbing from almost $120 million in July to $194 million in August. That jump is healthy for a newcomer. Yet it is still small when compared with established stablecoins that process billions each month on Ethereum and Tron. Based on these numbers, RLUSD is gaining traction but has a long way to go if it hopes to match the liquidity and daily flows of market leaders.

The debate over whether XRP could surpass Bitcoin has gained intensity in this cycle, and many analysts and commentators have weighed in on the possibility. A recent video posted on X by crypto analyst and commentator CryptoSensei touched on this discussion, where he made the bold claim that developments in interoperability, regulation, and tokenized real-world assets could eventually put XRP ahead of Bitcoin. The Pundit’s Claim: XRP In Front Of Bitcoin Although Bitcoin is currently the largest cryptocurrency, XRP’s positioning this cycle has increased discussions of a shift in dominance. Interestingly, XRP has overtaken many cryptocurrencies in the past few months and is now on the heels of Ethereum in terms of market cap. Related Reading: Real Vision CEO Raoul Pal Calls ‘Full Port’ Into XRP, Ethereum In his video, CryptoSensei focused on the broader trajectory of blockchain adoption over the next decade, which is going to include the integration of real-world assets like stocks, bonds, derivatives, and real estate into digital systems. He noted that only a small fraction of these markets are currently on-chain, and he predicted that this figure will perhaps rise just five to ten percent in the next ten years. The pace of this growth will be determined by global regulatory cooperation, where working groups from the G7 and G20 align laws to allow value to move seamlessly across borders. Interoperability of blockchains would be essential in this process. As such, CryptoSensei highlighted the role of companies like Chainlink, Ripple, and others that are connecting real-world assets to blockchain platforms, and he specifically called out XRP as having the potential to rise to the top. “Obviously, we would love to see XRP number one in front of Bitcoin,” he said, adding that the combination of regulation, interoperability, and tokenization could make this outcome possible. The Altcoin To Surpass Bitcoin? Ripple and its cryptocurrency XRP have long been recognized for their strong ties with banks, payment providers, and financial institutions worldwide. According to Ripple, XRP was designed with a focus on real-world utility in cross-border payments and settlement.  Related Reading: XRP Price Holds Macro Consolidation Zone, Wave 3 Surge Could Send Price To $5 This institutional integration distinguishes XRP from Bitcoin, and many analysts have argued adoption by financial institutions is the only way XRP can beat Bitcoin to become the number one cryptocurrency. Crypto analyst BarriC suggested that the adoption of XRP by institutions could see its price settle well above $1,000. Another important factor that might cause XRP to overtake Bitcoin lies in the growing use of the XRP Ledger for tokenization. Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization has grown massively in the past few weeks on the XRP Ledger, with the network growing as the platform for creating and managing tokenized assets.  Tokenization of real-world assets is viewed by many as one of the largest growth opportunities for blockchain technology, with trillions of dollars in value expected to migrate on-chain in the next few decades. This will undoubtedly bode well for the XRP price if the XRP Ledger can capitalize well on the tokenization trend. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com

Crypto analyst Costa has made an ultra-bullish prediction for the XRP price, stating that it could reach $473,214. He explained that such a massive price surge could happen thanks to tokenization on the XRP Ledger (XRPL). XRP Price To Reach $473,214 If This Happens In an X post, Costa predicted that the XRP price would reach $473,214 if 10% of global assets got tokenized onto the XRPL. This followed Ripple’s statement that 10% of global assets are expected to be tokenized by 2030. The analyst expects these assets, which amount to $50 trillion, to be tokenized on the XRP Ledger.  Related Reading: Crypto Exchange Reveals When XRP Price Will Cross $2,000 Costa declared that the amount of inflows and utility will most definitely cause the XRP price to skyrocket. He also noted that a potential supply shock will push the altcoin higher. Meanwhile, the analyst alluded to a market cap multiplier to explain how the price increase will happen. He stated that for every 10 billion of inflows, XRP will increase by 516x, moving the altcoin’s market cap to $5.3 trillion.  Costa then broke down the calculation for how the XRP price would reach $473,214. He divided $50 trillion, which represents 10% of the global assets, by $10 billion, which is the amount he projects as the inflows. The division amounted to $5,000, which he then multiplied by the projected $5.3 trillion market cap, leading to $26.5 quadrillion.  The analyst noted that dividing the current supply by this will result in an XRP price of $473,000. However, Costa admitted that these projections are simply hypothetical and that there is no 100% guarantee of 10% of the global assets being tokenized on the XRP Ledger.  XRP Still Expected To Rise Higher The XRP price is currently on a downtrend, but is still expected to witness a bullish reversal and reach new highs. Crypto analyst Matthew Dixon noted that the price is expected to surge soon above the highs previously recorded this year. He noted XRP’s pattern is currently corrective and should resolve higher, especially with the softening of monetary policy.  The Fed is expected to make a 25-basis-point (bps) rate cut at the next FOMC meeting, which is bullish for the XRP price. This could inject more liquidity into the altcoin’s ecosystem and serve as the catalyst for the next leg up. Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto predicted that the XRP price could rally to as high as $6 soon enough. However, he warned that the altcoin needs to hold above its current range as it prepares for this major breakout.  Related Reading: Is XRP A Meme Coin?

The XRP price is still showing bullish momentum despite the previous wave of downtrends. After falling below $2.8, a quick bounce was able to reclaim this level once again as support, putting it on a path lined with further gains. With the formation of an ascending trendline, the XRP price may be sitting on a ticking time bomb primed for explosion, and this would send it back toward its July peaks as bulls find their way back into the market again. XRP Price Breakout Could Notch 20% Gains The analysis from CMF Trading Point shows that the XRP price is at a critical level after the formation of an ascending trend line. This trend line has always been bullish, and with the return of bulls, it might be as bullish as it gets. Given this, the crypto analyst has given a reasonable target for where the XRP price could be headed next. Related Reading: Bitcoin, Ethereum Open Interest Are Sitting Close To ATH Levels, What Happened Last Time? Since the price is currently needling around the $2.82 level, it shows that there is still strength after the bulls reclaimed the $2.8 support. If this level holds and the ascending trendline breakout is completed, then the first target from here is for the XRP price to reach $3. Once this first target is achieved, then the price can quickly move on to the next target, which lies at $3.40. A completion would mean a 20% total increase, while still providing room for a possible continuation. If momentum holds, it could set the XRP price on a path to new all-time highs. What Happens If The Ascending Trendline Fails To Hold? In the event that the ascending trendline fails and the XRP price falls further, then it could spell a period of downtrend for the cryptocurrency. The analyst explains that the XRP price actually needs to stay above $2.20-$2.25 for the bullish breakout to remain valid. Otherwise, it would mean trouble. Related Reading: Cardano Founder Says Chainlink Quoted Them An ‘Absurd Price’, Here’s Why A breakdown below this level would trigger the start of another downtrend that could send the price spiraling toward $2.

XRP price is struggling to recover above the $2.850 zone. The price is now moving lower and might start another decline below $2.750. XRP price is facing hurdles and struggling to recover above the $2.850 resistance. The price is now trading below $2.820 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There is a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $2.8180 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The pair could continue to decline if it stays below the $2.850 zone. XRP Price Faces Hurdles XRP price managed to stay above the $2.70 level and started a recovery wave, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price climbed above the $2.75 and $2.80 resistance levels. However, the price seems to be struggling to settle above the $2.850 resistance zone. Recently, there was a fresh bearish reaction below the $2.820 level. The price dipped below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.70 swing low to the $2.887 high. The price is now trading below $2.820 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If the bulls protect the $2.780 support, the price could attempt another increase. On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $2.820 level. There is also a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $2.8180 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The first major resistance is near the $2.850 level. A clear move above the $2.850 resistance might send the price toward the $2.880 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $3.00 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $3.050. More Losses? If XRP fails to clear the $2.820 resistance zone, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.780 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.70 swing low to the $2.887 high. The next major support is near the $2.744 level. If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.744 level, the price might continue to decline toward $2.70. The next major support sits near the $2.650 zone, below which the price could gain bearish momentum. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for XRP/USD is now gaining pace in the bearish zone. Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for XRP/USD is now below the 50 level. Major Support Levels – $2.780 and $2.70. Major Resistance Levels – $2.850 and $2.880.

CRYPTOWZRD, in a recent market update, noted that XRP ended the session with an indecisive close, signaling uncertainty in the short term. According to the analyst, the key lies in XRPBTC—once it begins to move bullish, XRP could quickly ignite an impulsive upside rally. Symmetrical Triangle On XRPBTC Points To Upside Potential In expanding his analysis, CRYPTOWZRD emphasized that both the daily candle of XRP and XRPBTC closed indecisively, leaving traders on edge about the next major move. He pointed out that the relationship between Bitcoin dominance and XRPBTC could be a decisive factor. Should Bitcoin dominance weaken further, it would likely give XRPBTC the strength it needs to move bullishly and trigger a breakout from its symmetrical triangle formation. Related Reading: Is XRP A Meme Coin? Analyst Reveals How Whales Are Playing The Game According to CRYPTOWZRD, this potential breakout in XRPBTC is critical because it would naturally extend to XRP’s price action. Such a scenario could provide the fuel needed for XRP to shift out of consolidation and begin a more impulsive upside run. The analyst further noted that if XRP turns bullish, it would not only trigger momentum but also allow the asset to break out of its daily lower-high trendline. This move, he explained, would come from a double-bottom formation visible on the daily chart. With these confluences aligning, the technical setup appears increasingly favorable for a strong push to the upside. CRYPTOWZRD highlighted $3.65 as the next significant resistance level to watch. A decisive breakout above this point would mark a pivotal moment for XRP, as it would pave the way for a new all-time high. To stay ahead of the move, CRYPTOWZRD concluded that his focus will remain on lower-time frame chart formations for now, allowing him to spot quick scalp opportunities. XRP Stuck in Sideways Action: Key Resistance In Focus Giving his final verdict, CRYPTOWZRD revealed that the intraday chart of XRP is currently moving sideways, showing no clear direction in the short term. He explained that the $2.94 level remains the key resistance zone to watch, as it could dictate whether momentum shifts in favor of the bulls. Related Reading: XRP Price To Rally 5,600% To $200? Crypto Analyst Lays Out The Possibilities According to the expert, a decisive move above the $2.94 resistance would open the door for a strong long opportunity. He added that he intends to take advantage of that setup, but only if Bitcoin’s market structure supports the idea, reinforcing the importance of broader market conditions. However, CRYPTOWZRD cautioned that if XRP continues to hold below the $2.94 level, more sideways volatility is likely in the near term. In this case, patience will be essential, as the market would need more time to mature before offering the next reliable trading opportunity.

A fresh round of bold predictions has surfaced in the XRP community after crypto analyst Nick Anderson compared the token’s trajectory to Amazon’s historic breakout more than a decade ago. Related Reading: Dogecoin Gets Its 1st Foundation-Backed Treasury Worth $175 Million According to Anderson, the current phase for XRP looks similar to Amazon’s long consolidation period before its massive rally. Amazon’s Long Wait Before Its Breakout Anderson recalled how Amazon shares traded sideways for about 3,800 days after the dot-com crash, stretching from the year 2000 until 2010. During that time, the stock slowly built a base, eventually forming what analysts call a cup-and-handle pattern. When the breakout came, Amazon moved from around $5 to $200, marking a gain of 3,900% over 15 years. He argued that XRP might be in the same situation today. The cryptocurrency has traded around $2.75 recently, which he described as being not far from the level—$5—where Amazon’s explosive run began. Based on his chart analysis, Anderson claimed XRP could eventually climb to anywhere between $100 and $200, though such a move would take years to unfold.   ????IS #XRP IN THE SAME ROUTE AS AMAZON? pic.twitter.com/422gQpoYw4 — BULLRUNNERS (@BullrunnersHQ) September 2, 2025 Predicted Path For XRP Holders In his assessment, the analyst said younger investors who hold large amounts of XRP today could be in line for life-changing wealth if the forecast proves accurate. Anderson suggested that those currently in their early 30s might be between 45 and 50 years old by the time XRP reaches $100. He gave a simple calculation: a holding of 10,000 tokens would be worth $1 million at that price point. While the projection is long term, Anderson also placed attention on the current cycle. He forecast XRP could see a run toward $5 to $30 before a sharp correction. That correction, in his view, would serve as a reset before wider adoption takes hold and larger gains become possible in the next decade. Related Reading: Mastercard Stresses Crypto Is An Enhancement, Not A Substitute Community Forecasts Add To Speculation XRP’s community has often entertained lofty targets, and Anderson’s call is not the first time a $100 price has been floated. Market observers have also predicted similar outcomes. Some backers argue that once liquidity in the market swells, much like it did ahead of the 2017 surge, XRP could accelerate toward those bigger milestones sooner than many expect. For now, XRP trades at $2.84 with a modest 0.90% daily gain and has reclaimed its spot as the third-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. Whether the token can truly mirror Amazon’s long climb is uncertain, but the prediction highlights just how strongly some analysts believe XRP is poised for an Amazon-like boom that could one day drive it to the $200 mark.

XRP’s large holder cohort, specifically addresses holding between 10 million and 100 million XRP, has shifted from accumulation in the second half of August to significant dumping at the start of September.  On-chain data from analytics platform Santiment reveals a sharp reversal in holdings, both in terms of circulating supply percentage and the number of coins held by this cohort. This change raises concerns about the sustainability of XRP’s price, which has been facing rejections above $2.8, and whether September could be a bearish month for the token. XRP Millionaires Start September With A Selloff XRP millionaire wallets, which are addresses holding between 10 million and 100 million XRP coins, aggressively increased their holdings during the second half of August. Based on the current price of XRP, each of these addresses is sitting on $28 million and $280 million worth of XRP, depending on the size of their wallets. Related Reading: Analyst Says XRP Price Is Yet To Hit Its First Bearish Target – Details Particularly, Santiment’s data shows that the percentage of XRP supply held by these addresses rose from 11.67% on August 16 to 12.19% by the end of the month. In terms of numbers, their stash grew from about 7.5 billion XRP coins to 7.85 billion XRP. This surge in accumulation showed the confidence among large investors, which contributed to XRP successfully holding above the $3 price level throughout the month. However, September has opened with an abrupt reversal. On September 1, whale holdings accounted for 12.19% of the circulating supply, but by September 3, that figure had dropped to 11.77%. In coin terms, the balance fell from 7.85 billion XRP to 7.61 billion XRP, wiping out much of the late August accumulation in just a few days. This decline is clearly illustrated in Santiment’s chart below, which shows a synchronized dip in both percentage supply and absolute holdings. This rapid offloading means that these millionaire wallets may be taking profits after August’s rally, and it introduces downside pressure that could have effects on XRP’s price action throughout September. Could This Mean A Red September For XRP? September has been a mixed month for XRP, with both strong rallies and painful corrections shaping investor sentiment. According to data from CryptoRank, the last time XRP saw a red September was back in 2021, when it fell sharply by 20.1%. Since then, however, XRP has managed to string together three consecutive green Septembers, including a 46.2% increase in September 2022. Related Reading: XRP Price Gets $20 Target: The 2 Scenarios That Could Play Out From Here This track record shows that while September has the potential to bring losses, it has also been highlighted by gains. Although it is too early to declare a repeat scenario of a red September, the sell-off from millionaires at the beginning of September sets a worrying precedent. XRP’s price action is already showing signs of strain, with the token repeatedly facing rejections above $2.8 in recent days. If these millionaire wallets continue to offload their holdings, the bullish sentiment surrounding XRP may weaken, which may lead to further declines. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.82, up by 0.2% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Historical data provides a bullish outlook for the XRP price this month, with the altcoin likely to record significant gains based on past performance. Specifically, the average monthly returns show that XRP could even record double-digit gains.  Average Monthly Returns Point To Notable Gains For The XRP Price Cryptorank data shows that the XRP price has historically recorded an average monthly return of 13.8% in September. This suggests that the altcoin could again record positive returns this time around, especially as it looks to reclaim the psychological $3 level. Meanwhile, it is worth mentioning that the altcoin has closed the last three Septembers in the green. Related Reading: Is XRP A Meme Coin? Analyst Reveals How Whales Are Playing The Game In September 2022, the XRP price recorded a gain of 46.2%, its largest over the past 4 years. It also saw an increase of almost 8% in September 2023. The altcoin has so far recorded a gain of nearly 3% this month and looks on course to replicate its historical positive performance in September.  Notably, there are bullish fundamentals that could spark a run for the XRP price. This includes the projected 25 basis points (bps) rate cut that the Fed is expected to make at the September 17 FOMC meeting. There is currently a 99.7% chance that the Fed will make this cut, according to CME FedWatch data.  A Fed rate cut is bullish for altcoins, including XRP, as it could lead to increased risk-on sentiment among investors and cause more liquidity to flow into these assets. Meanwhile, the XRP ETFs are expected to receive the SEC’s nod in October, and given the market’s forward-looking nature, the XRP price could rally in anticipation of this occurrence next month. The ETFs are expected to attract new capital into the altcoin’s ecosystem.  XRP Eyes Rally To $3.40 In an X post, crypto analyst Egrag Crypto predicted that the XRP price could rally to around $3.40. He noted that with the altcoin currently trading at around $2.877, all eyes are on how it will perform around this level. If XRP closes above $3.077, the analyst stated that it could increase the chance of breaching the $3.40 mark.  Related Reading: XRP Price Action Turns Bearish, Analyst Says Crash Below $1 Is Coming Interestingly, the analyst suggested that the XRP price could rally by over 200% and reach $6.12 if it successfully breaches the $3.40 mark. His accompanying chart showed that XRP could claim this $6 range this month. Meanwhile, in another X post, Egrag Crypto said that the range of $3.077 to $3.13 is a key area, as a strong close above it with high volume could pave the way for the next move.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.85, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

XRP price is attempting to recover above the $2.80 zone. The price is now facing hurdles near $2.88 and might start another decline below $2.80. XRP price is attempting to recover above the $2.80 resistance. The price is now trading above $2.80 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There was a break below a short-term rising channel with support at $2.850 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The pair could continue to rise if it stays above the $2.8120 zone. XRP Price Faces Resistance XRP price managed to stay above the $2.720 level and started a recovery wave, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price climbed above the $2.75 and $2.80 resistance levels. There was a move above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3.040 swing high to the $2.70 low. However, the price seems to be struggling to stay above the $2.880 resistance zone. Recently, there was a break below a short-term rising channel with support at $2.850 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The price is now trading above $2.80 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If the bulls protect the $2.8120 support, the price could attempt another increase. On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $2.880 level. The first major resistance is near the $2.9160 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3.040 swing high to the $2.70 low. A clear move above the $2.9160 resistance might send the price toward the $2.960 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $3.00 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $3.050. Another Drop? If XRP fails to clear the $2.880 resistance zone, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.8120 level. The next major support is near the $2.80 level. If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.80 level, the price might continue to decline toward $2.740. The next major support sits near the $2.70 zone, below which the price could gain bearish momentum. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for XRP/USD is now losing pace in the bullish zone. Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for XRP/USD is now below the 50 level. Major Support Levels – $2.8120 and $2.80. Major Resistance Levels – $2.880 and $2.9160.

In a recent post on X, crypto analyst Pumpius argued that the recent drop in XRP’s price is not natural but the result of deliberate actions by Binance. According to him, the exchange wants to protect its position because the digital currency poses a threat to the system it has built over the years. He says the exchange is doing more than just selling tokens; it is working to hold XRP back.  Binance Accused Of Coordinating XRP Price Suppression Pumpius says Binance is not only selling XRP but is also actively manipulating the market around it. He points to sudden drops in liquidity, heavy waves of sell pressure, and red flashes on charts that appear whenever there’s an announcement of positive Ripple news. He claims this is not a coincidence but evidence of coordination and a strategy to keep XRP from breaking out. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Set For Explosive Rally If This Structure Holds The analyst stresses that the real reason Binance targets XRP is that it is different. XRP is not a meme or speculative bet but a payment infrastructure. Pumpius argues it could replace the liquidity pools that Binance has used for years, and if that happens, the exchange’s market-making business could crumble. He also warns that it is not only Binance that is involved. According to him, powerful investors, legacy financial players, and offshore networks all see XRP as a threat. He says that because XRP runs on transparent rails, it could expose money flows they prefer to keep hidden. Therefore, price suppression becomes their primary tool to slow down the process. Why Suppression Could Backfire As XRP Price Fundamentals Strengthen Despite these heavy claims, Pumpius argues that the pressure on XRP may backfire.  The crypto expert points to Ripple and its ecosystem, noting that the fundamentals are strengthening every day. New payment corridors are opening in Japan and the UAE. Projects such as DNA Protocol are using the XRP Ledger to anchor IDs and even genetic data.  Related Reading: Crypto Adviser For The Ultra Wealthy Tells XRP Investors What To Do As Coins Turn To Real Money Pumpius believes this shows the suppression is artificial. The fundamentals are exploding, he says, while the adverse price action comes from deliberate dumping. He adds that every time Binance sells, more XRP moves into self-custody wallets. Instead of weakening the community, this decentralizes the asset even more. Holders are preparing for the day when real utility drives demand at a scale far beyond speculation. In his view, when that switch flips, Binance’s paper games will be meaningless compared to trillion-dollar settlement flows. He warns that the exchange may think it is winning now, but it’s only exposing the truth about the digital currency. XRP, he says, is not just a trader’s coin. It is the backbone of a new financial order. And according to him, no amount of dumping can stop already living rails. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

The XRP price remains a major focus in the crypto market, with analysts and traders often debating its long-term trajectory. A fresh report from crypto exchange Changelly has provided a new perspective, offering detailed projections for XRP’s future performance. The report reveals when the cryptocurrency could finally surpass the $2,000 milestone, alongside expectations for short- and long-term price action.  XRP Price Forecasted To Surpass $2,200 By 2040 According to Changelly’s latest price analysis released on September 2, XRP is projected to surpass $2,000 in November 2040. Analysts at the exchange forecast that XRP could hit a maximum price of $2,215 in December 2040, marking a period of sustained explosive growth. In the same year, the minimum price is estimated at $1,825, while the average trading level is anticipated to reach approximately $1,969. Related Reading: Pundit Reveals What Will Happen When XRP Price Hits $100 And $1,000 What makes this bullish forecast even more striking is that in the years leading up to 2040, XRP is expected to remain below $130. This suggests that the token could undergo an unprecedented growth spurt by the time it reaches $2,000, potentially surging between 1,430% and 73,979% from its projected 2026-2034 range. If a rally above $2,000 is realized, 2040 would be a transformative year for XRP, as it would mark the first time the token enters the quadruple-digit territory. Looking further ahead, Changelly projects that by 2050, XRP could climb even higher, reaching a maximum value of $2,840 by December. Analysts at the exchange expect the token’s average price in that year to stabilize around $2,604, while the minimum price could be approximately $2,485. While these projections suggest that volatility will remain a part of XRP’s performance, it’s overall growth prospects point toward a significantly higher valuation.  Changelly’s XRP Price Forecast For 2025 While Changelly’s long-term price forecast highlights XRP’s explosive potential, its technical analysis for 2025 paints a more cautious picture. The exchange predicts that in 2025, XRP could decline to a minimum value of $2.49 and a maximum of $2.82, with an average trading price of $3.14. Currently, the cryptocurrency is trading at $2.83, meaning its growth for this year is expected to be limited.  Related Reading: It Is ‘Genuinely Impossible’ For XRP To Hit $1,000; Pundit Warns Changelly notes that XRP’s recent market performance has been relatively muted. It has declined by 3.65% over the past week after erasing about $0.05 from its value within the last month. This downturn has placed the cryptocurrency in a dip, with analysts interpreting it as a short-term buying opportunity.  Technical indicators like the Moving Averages (MA) reinforce XRP’s bearish price action. Changelly notes that the 50-day MA is trending downward on the four-hour chart, pointing to weakening short-term momentum. The 200-day MA, which began declining in late August 2025, also signals ongoing pressure in XRP’s longer-term trend.  The crypto exchange also highlights that XRP’s market sentiment is 60% bearish, with a Fear & Greed Index score of 49, signaling neutrality but edging toward fear.

XRP is trading below $3 after repeated rejections above $2.8 in the past 24 hours. A new chart analysis from crypto MadWhale shows the pressure building inside a descending channel that might push the XRP price down to $2.4. However, what stands out in his analysis is not just the price target; it’s the bigger question of whether XRP is starting to behave like a meme coin that is being controlled by crowd psychology and whale activity. XRP’s Psychological Cycle That Resembles Meme Coins In his analysis, which was posted on the TradingView platform, crypto analyst MadWhale outlined the repeating psychological cycle that often dominates meme coin markets and suggested that XRP may not be immune from it.  Related Reading: Analyst Says XRP Price Is Yet To Hit Its First Bearish Target – Details The cycle begins with excitement, where social media buzz generates hype, followed by greed as traders rush in without much thought. This stage then shifts into social proof, when influencers amplify the golden opportunity narrative to pull in new investors at peak prices. It is at this very moment that whales begin quietly offloading their positions and cause the meme coin to enter a sharp correction. The result is panic selling by small traders, culminating in a capitulation where whales buy back cheap, restarting the cycle all over again.  According to MadWhale, this trend is not limited to meme coins alone, but XRP’s current trading behavior is showing signs of fitting the same mold. MadWhale described whales as “masters of illusion,” capable of buying large chunks to pump the price, spread optimism, and then sell into the frenzy.  This strategy is starting to create a cycle of retail fear and greed in XRP, where smaller traders are often left holding losses while whales re-enter the market at bargain prices. He noted that technical tools like Volume Profile, RSI, and the Fear and Greed Index can expose these plays. For instance, heavy volume accumulation at specific levels combined with overbought RSI readings and extreme greed sentiment show the perfect moment when whales start selling.  Descending Channel Points To $2.40 Target According to MadWhale’s chart, XRP is trading within a well-defined descending channel that has shaped its price action since July 19. The repeated rejections around the $3 price zone have caused lower highs that have made it increasingly difficult for bulls to mount a sustained breakout. The most recent rejection was at $3, and the ensuing selling pressure has caused XRP to create successive 12-hour bearish candlesticks. Related Reading: XRP Price Gets $20 Target: The 2 Scenarios That Could Play Out From Here The analyst’s projection on the chart shows a possible 14% decline to another major support resting around $2.40. This zone has been identified as the main daily support area, and reaching it would mark the latest stage of XRP’s corrective move inside the channel. On the other hand, any rebound attempts would first need to clear the $3 resistance. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.80, up by 1.4% in the past 24 hours.

A leading crypto adviser is sending an urgent message to XRP investors. Jake Claver, who advises the ultra-wealthy, says the time to prepare is before XRP becomes real money. He warns that too many investors wait until after profits arrive, and by then it may be too late to avoid problems. Claver explains that early planning could be the best way to protect XRP investor gains and keep them safe. According to him, waiting until the windfall is already in their wallet leaves them exposed and unprepared. Get Your Structure In Place Before XRP Profits Arrive Jake Claver’s first piece of advice in his X post is direct: get your structure in place before profits come in. He says many XRP investors are waiting too long, and that delay can lead to risks that are hard to fix later. As a crypto adviser for the ultra wealthy, Claver has seen how fast success can turn into trouble when investors ignore planning. He makes it clear that action must come before the gains, not after. Related Reading: Analyst Forecasts Bitcoin Price Will Break This Support Level, Can $100,000 Hold? The crypto adviser stresses that XRP investors need to focus on legal, tax, and security planning while they still have time. If these steps are skipped or delayed, investors may face significant burdens when their coins become of real value. Problems can arise quickly, and once they do, they become more complex and more expensive to resolve.  Claver cautions that establishing a structure is not about fear but being smart. Building the right plan now helps investors enjoy their success later without stress. In his view, the best way to secure digital wealth is to take action early, not when the profits are already sitting in the wallet. Trusts, LLCs, And Custody Solutions Built For Digital Assets Jake Claver also points to the tools he thinks work best for building crypto wealth. He says basic templates are not enough for serious investors, and XRP holders need structures made for digital assets if they want their coins to turn into lasting money. The crypto adviser for the ultra-wealthy recommends using digital asset–specific trusts, LLCs, and custody solutions. These solutions could provide XRP investors with lasting financial security, giving them a strong way to protect their wealth and avoid costly mistakes as their digital holdings gradually turn into real money.
