THE LATEST CRYPTO NEWS

The XRP price is once again at the center of discussion in the cryptocurrency market after a market expert reiterated their bold long-term forecast. The founders of EasyA, Dom and Phil Kwok, say the token still has the potential to hit $1,000, even if it takes longer than first expected. They explain that the short-term view is not yet clear, but the long-term case for XRP remains strong.  EasyA Founders Stand By $1,000 XRP Price Prediction Dom and Phil Kwok joined host Tony Edward on the Thinking Crypto podcast to share their updated thoughts on XRP. Edward recalled their earlier bold forecast of $1,000 by 2030, which still excites many supporters. Dom Kwok made it clear that the short-term outlook is still “formulating,” meaning they are not ready to set a concrete target for the current cycle. However, he confirmed that the long-term thesis remains intact, and the bold forecast is still alive.

When those approvals are in place, Dom believes that large amounts of new capital could flow into XRP.  The market expert noted that the legal teams of hedge funds and asset managers are working out the rules to determine how they can start investing in other tokens. With the SEC lawsuit against Ripple now resolved, many of the barriers that held back institutions are gone. For the EasyA founders, this shift in the investment landscape is key to why the XRP $1,000 price target remains in place. Network Effects And Developer Momentum Strengthen XRP’s Case Phil Kwok spoke about another driver for the XRP’s growth: network effects. He explained that when prices rise, more developers become involved and build. Recent performance shows why the EasyA founders remain confident. The XRP price has climbed 456% since last year, trading above $3, and it is now the best-performing large-cap altcoin.  Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Could See Another Double-Digit Surge This Week As These Developments Take Place Dom also pointed out that price charts matter because falling prices scare off both users and builders. With the XRP price showing steady gains, it is drawing more investors and developers to its network. The short-term outlook is still uncertain, but the long-term belief in $1,000 continues to drive discussion. While Dom and Phil Kwok stand by their bold forecast, other experts, such as Matthew Brienen of CryptoCharged, have suggested that the price could reach that level by 2035 instead. Even with the extended timeline, XRP’s strong position, growing utility, and the attention of institutions and developers all point toward a long-term path of significant growth. For many in the XRP community, the $1,000 price target remains a central rallying point, even if the timeline shifts. Featured image from DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

Analyst Austin Hilton has sounded a major XRP warning even as the price continues to consolidate. He declared that this is the last chance to get into the altcoin before its price goes on a parabolic run.  Last Chance To Get In On XRP Before Its Q4 Bull Run In a YouTube video, Austin Hilton warned that this is the last chance for investors to accumulate XRP before its major bull run in the last quarter of this year. He noted that September was expected to be a slow month with little action from the altcoin, especially as investors wait on a Fed rate cut.  Related Reading: Analyst Warns XRP Investors Not To FOMO In, Wait For This To Happen First The analyst further remarked that the altcoin has even outperformed expectations this month, considering that it was able to reclaim the psychological $3 level and has held well above support levels. However, Austin Hilton predicts that a greater run lies ahead for the altcoin, with liquidity set to return in the fourth quarter from both retail and institutional investors.  Another bullish fundamental he alluded to is the fact that XRP is being taken off exchanges, which indicates that crypto whales are actively accumulating the token. This could lead to a supply shock, which could serve as a catalyst for higher prices. Bitcoinist reported that Coinbase’s reserves have crashed by 90% as whales move tokens off the exchange to hold for the long term.  Meanwhile, four major crypto exchanges, including Binance, saw massive demand earlier in the month, leading them to add 1.2 million coins to meet this demand. The CryptoQuant analysis that pointed this out noted that the demand might have been coordinated and might have come from institutions. This comes ahead of the potential XRP ETFs launch, which is bullish for the altcoin’s price.  Institutions Set To Flow Into The Altcoin With ETF Launch Institutions are set to inject new capital into the ecosystem with the launch of the first spot XRP ETF, which is happening this week. REX Shares confirmed that its REX-Osprey XRP ETF (XRPR) is coming this week. It noted that this will be the first U.S. ETF to deliver investors spot exposure to XRP.  Related Reading: What To Expect If XRP ETFs Get Approval From The SEC Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart stated that the REX-Osprey XRP ETF isn’t a “pure” spot ETF. He explained that it will hold spot directly and other spot XRP ETFs from around the world to get its exposure. The analyst also noted that the fund’s prospectus includes language that would allow it to invest in derivatives for exposure if needed. However, that won’t be the primary exposure method.  The spot XRP ETFs could get a SEC approval in October, which is another factor that could serve as a catalyst for higher prices for the cryptocurrency heading into the fourth quarter. Seven fund issuers are currently awaiting the SEC’s approval to offer a 100% spot XRP ETF.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.97, down over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

The XRP community often sees bold predictions about where the token’s price could go, with some supporters suggesting the price might one day hit $10,000. A well-known crypto analyst has explained that such a number is not realistic, even though the XRP price still has room for strong growth. His remarks give investors a more balanced perspective, focusing on what the market can actually support rather than unrealistic expectations.  Analyst Debunks $10,000 XRP Price Target As Unrealistic The discussion picked up after pro-XRP commentator Xaif shared a video featuring market analyst Adam Stokes. In the video, Stokes made it clear that XRP is not going to reach the extreme $10,000 price predictions that often appear in online debates. He explained that he personally owns a large amount of the digital asset and would welcome such gains, but he stressed that it is simply not possible.  Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Could See Another Double-Digit Surge This Week As These Developments Take Place According to him, there is not enough global capital to support that level of valuation. As he put it, “There’s just not enough money on planet Earth for that,” a remark that struck a chord with many XRP holders and gave more weight to the cautious side of the debate. For years, parts of the community have argued about where the XRP price could go, with some hoping for massive numbers far beyond current levels.  The crypto analyst noted that while enthusiasm is strong, investors should not expect unrealistic outcomes that exceed what the market can actually support. By rejecting the idea of a $10,000 XRP, he brought the conversation back to what is achievable in real trading conditions. Stokes Predicts $5 to $7 As Realistic XRP Price Range While he dismissed the extreme forecast, Stokes still gave a positive outlook for XRP. The analyst expects the XRP price to reach $4 without much trouble and has placed a realistic price target of $5 to $7. For many holders, that price move could represent an increase from current levels. Reaching such levels would also mark a brand-new all-time high for XRP, proving that substantial growth is still possible even without chasing extreme numbers. Related Reading: Expert Crypto Trader Says Dogecoin Price Looks ‘Very Good’, Here’s Why Stokes’ view would suggest that the XRP price growth must stem from genuine capital inflows and stronger fundamentals, rather than mere wishful thinking. By highlighting $4 as reachable and setting $5 to $7 as his forecast range, he provided the community with a more precise and practical view of where the market may head, steadily backed by real demand and adoption. His conservative yet optimistic analysis strikes a balance between hope and reality. In this way, the report from Stokes shifts the conversation away from hype and towards achievable expectations that still leave room for excitement about the future of the XRP price.

The XRP price is flashing a bull flag pattern on its weekly chart, hinting at an explosive breakout ahead. A crypto analyst has highlighted $3.6 as the key resistance in this formation, noting that if XRP can clear this level, the path toward an ambitious End of the Year (EOY) target of $23 is expected to come into view, with short-term milestones anticipated along the way.  XRP Price Bull Flag Signals Explosive Potential Crypto market expert Stedas has drawn attention to XRP’s weekly chart, highlighting the formation of a classic bull flag pattern, one of the strongest continuation signals in technical analysis. His XRP price analysis, shared in a post on X social media, shows that the cryptocurrency’s recent sideways movement and consolidation phase are forming the “flag” of the pattern after a sharp rally that created the “flagpole.” This structure typically suggests that a new explosive leg upward could soon unfold once resistance is cleared. Related Reading: XRP Price Gets Tighter: Here’s The Level Keeping It From Price Discovery According to Stedas, the critical level to watch is the $3.6 mark. A decisive break above this resistance could ignite XRP’s next rally phase, potentially unlocking price levels far beyond its current range and former all-time highs. The analyst has identified $6, $13, and even $23 as potential end-of-the-year targets. While these levels may seem ambitious, they align with the behaviours of bull flag patterns, which have historically driven powerful and sustained rallies following periods of consolidation.  Notably, XRP’s momentum picked up after it reclaimed the $3 range earlier this month with strong buying pressure. However the price has since slipped to $2.97 following a 3.5% pullback in the past 24 hours. Despite the dip, Stedas’s bull flag framework suggests that XRP is shifting out of its stagnant zone and is now primed for acceleration.  If market sentiment aligns with the technicals, the cryptocurrency could be looking at its most significant rally in years. The next few weeks may also prove decisive, as the market awaits confirmation of whether the analyst’s current setup can deliver on its bullish outlook.  XRP Retests Fib Zone With $4.6 Target In Play Crypto analyst, Rose Premium Signals, has also shed light on XRP’s structure, focusing on its mid-term outlook. The analysis suggests that XRP has completed a bullish retest, strengthening the case for upside continuation. According to him, XRP has just bounced off the 0.5 – 0.618 Fibonacci retracement zone, a range that often serves as a textbook support level before continuation moves.  Related Reading: XRP Price Confirms Descending Trendline Breakout, Here Are The Targets Rose Premium Signals has highlighted an entry zone between $2.85 and $3.05, which XRP has already tested and respected with notable strength. The analyst argues that this confirmation marks a valid long setup backed by clear technical structure, Fibonacci alignment, and broader market resilience. From this zone, the chart projects a climb toward $4.67, which serves as the first official target in this mid-breakout scenario. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP has finally broken above a major resistance zone, igniting fresh bullish momentum across the market. Related Reading: Dogecoin Bulls Eye $0.54 ‘Final Boss’ Breakout, Says Top Analyst After weeks of consolidation, the token closed above the $3.03–$3.08 range, a level that had capped gains for months. This decisive breakout has shifted sentiment, with traders now eyeing higher targets as momentum indicators flash green. XRP Market Performance Analysis The XRP Technical charts confirm the bullish setup. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has crossed into favorable territory, hovering around 58, a level that historically precedes strong rallies. Volume has also spiked, reflecting growing buyer confidence. Analysts say this confluence of price action and momentum signals could pave the way for XRP’s next big move. Immediate resistance sits at $3.30, with further upside targets at $3.65 and $4.20. On the downside, support is clustered between $2.72 and $3.00, levels bulls must defend to keep the trend intact. XRP's price trends to the upside, but records a decline on short timeframes. Source: XRPUSD on Tradingview ETF Speculation Adds Fuel, But Doubts Remain Adding to the buzz is renewed speculation around a potential XRP ETF. Supporters argue that Ripple’s partial legal clarity and XRP’s utility in cross-border payments make it a prime ETF candidate. An approval, they say, could unlock institutional inflows and trigger a powerful demand surge. However, skeptics caution that XRP’s regulatory status remains murky in several jurisdictions. Unlike Bitcoin and Ethereum, XRP’s classification is still contested, raising doubts over whether an ETF is likely in the near future. Even if approval comes, some analysts argue that XRP’s utility-focused design may limit its appeal as a traditional investment vehicle. For now, ETF chatter remains speculative, but it has injected optimism into the XRP community as the token tests key levels. Whale Selling and Short-Term Pullbacks Despite the bullish setup, on-chain data shows that whales have offloaded over 160 million XRP in recent weeks. Historically, such large-scale selling reflects profit-taking and risk management by institutional players. Yet, XRP’s ability to stabilize around $3 despite this pressure signals strong retail demand. Short-term pullbacks have also been noted, with traders highlighting key support between $2.87 and $2.95. Analysts suggest these dips could provide entry points for bulls aiming for the next breakout above $3.30.

Many crypto analysts and investors are very bullish on XRP, providing lofty price targets. However, Austin Hilton, a popular crypto commentator, has declared that investors are not bullish enough on XRP, while also admitting that he too had underestimated the token’s true potential. His latest outlook is that XRP’s price upside is far greater than most expect, and this realization comes from examining where Bitcoin could be in the coming years. Related Reading: ETF Dreams For Dogecoin: Serious Possibility Or Just Hype? Bitcoin’s Billion-Dollar Forecast And What It Means For XRP XRP price predictions have mostly always been anchored on discussions and expectations of adoption by banks in cross-border settlement. However, according to Austin Hilton, all these catalysts could be left aside, and XRP’s price could surge massively in the years ahead, especially if Bitcoin fulfills lofty projections.  According to the pundit, the scale of the crypto opportunity in the coming decades is so immense that current investors are not bullish enough and accumulating enough XRP. He referenced a circulating forecast that predicted that Bitcoin could reach as high as $1 billion per coin by 2038, a figure championed by high-profile names such as Michael Saylor. This prediction stunned him, as the highest long-term projections he had seen had put the Bitcoin price at $13 million. Bringing the conversation back to XRP, he noted that if this projected Bitcoin rally pushes the entire market upward, as it has always done, then XRP’s value could rise even more in relative terms. Therefore, XRP has the room to act as a multiplier in comparison to Bitcoin’s moves because of its smaller market cap. The Roadmap To Double And Triple-Digit XRP As noted by Hilton, the $1 billion projection is very speculative, adding that “that absolutely floored me and blew me away.” However, the analyst also pointed out that even shorter-term moves in Bitcoin could have an outsized impact on XRP.  For instance, he predicted that the XRP price will surge to between $15 and $20 if Bitcoin were to reach $200,000 by the end of the year. Furthermore, he added that XRP’s price could realistically climb to triple digits if Bitcoin advances to the $1 million price level in the coming years. In this case, the analyst estimated a potential of at least $100 per coin. Interestingly, these price targets do not even account for catalysts within XRP’s own ecosystem, such as Ripple’s cross-border payment network, acquisitions, and growing adoption among banks. XRP’s upside could be even greater when these factors are factored in. Related Reading: Dogecoin Defies Odds, Jumps 21% Even As ETF Debut Gets Pushed Back The pundit’s bottom line was that XRP holders need to raise their level of conviction. Bitcoin currently makes up around 60% of the entire crypto market, meaning that any explosive growth in its value is almost certain to lift other large market cap cryptocurrencies. XRP has a smaller cap than Bitcoin, so it could post even stronger relative gains in such an environment. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $3.14, up by 2.9% in the past 24 hours.

Crypto analyst Borovik has unveiled his 2026 bullish predictions for the XRP price, Dogecoin, and Solana. This comes as these three altcoins stand out in the ongoing crypto market rally, recording notable gains.  Analyst Reveals 2026 Prediction For XRP, Dogecoin, and Solana In an X post, Borovik predicted that the XRP price will rally to $23, Dogecoin to $2, and Solana to $1,800 in 2026. He also made predictions for other major coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, and TRX. The analyst expects BTC to rally to $896,503, ETH to $35,000, BNB to $7,000, and TRX to $2.7.  Related Reading: Analyst Warns XRP Investors Not To FOMO In, Wait For This To Happen First However, the analyst didn’t provide any basis for why the XRP price, Dogecoin, Solana, and these other coins could rally to these ambitious targets. Notably, these coins are currently the top 9 largest cryptos by market cap, excluding stablecoins USDT and USDC. These coins are also currently recording notable gains amid the recent crypto market rally.  The XRP price has reclaimed the psychological $3 level and now looks set to retest higher resistance levels and possibly flip them into support. Dogecoin has also reached its most recent local high of $0.28 and is now looking to hit the $0.30 level. Solana surpassed $240 yesterday, reaching this level for the first time since January.  Fundamentals have played a role in driving this rally for the XRP price, Dogecoin, and Solana. REX-Osprey is launching the first XRP and DOGE ETFs next week, under the 40 Act. These funds will still provide spot exposure to both altcoins, although they differ from the conventional spot crypto ETFs. REX-Osprey’s funds will help inject new capital into the XRP and DOGE ecosystem, which could serve as a catalyst for higher prices.  Meanwhile, Solana just saw the launch of a $1.65 billion SOL treasury firm, Forward Industries. The firm completed the private placement earlier this week and immediately began buying SOL through Galaxy Digital, which was one of the investors in the private placement. This has added significant buying pressure on the crypto.  More Gains Ahead For These Altcoins The XRP price, Dogecoin, and Solana are still expected to record major gains ahead amid this crypto market rally. Crypto analyst CasiTrades suggested that the consolidation period is over for XRP and that it is set to rally to a new all-time high (ATH). Her accompanying chart showed that the altcoin could rally above $4.60.  Related Reading: Bitcoin Price To $150,000, Ethereum At $8,000, And An Altcoin Season? Analyst Reveals When Crypto analyst Ali Martinez stated that Dogecoin is still in the buy zone and that the bullish breakout will melt faces. His accompanying chart showed that DOGE could rally to as high as $4 if it touches the middle channel of an ascending channel. In a separate analysis, the analyst noted that $1,300 is the primary target for SOL after breaking out of a cup and handle pattern.  Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

XRP is now back trading above $3 and is holding well above the price level. This is on the back of days of consolidating around $2.8. Although price action in the past 24 hours has seen XRP trading back above $3, it is yet to confirm a close to solidify the zone. Against this backdrop, technical analysis of the XRP 4-hour candlestick timeframe chart shows a critical level that could determine whether XRP finally breaks free into price discovery. Resistance Keeping XRP From Price Discovery Although the XRP price is currently inching slowly upwards, technical analysis shows it is yet to break above a technical resistance keeping it from price recovery. According to a technical analysis of the XRP 4-hour candlestick timeframe chart that was posted on the social media platform X by CoinsKid, XRP’s movement in August was capped by a resistance line at $3.3774. This resistance is represented with the white trendline in the price chart below. Related Reading: XRP Price Confirms Descending Trendline Breakout, Here Are The Targets The importance of this line goes beyond short-term price action. As it stands, this resistance barrier has effectively become the gatekeeper between XRP’s current price action and the possibility of a major breakout for price discovery into new all-time highs.  According to the analyst, clearing this line would mark the point at which XRP could enter price discovery, a stage where there are no previous highs to serve as reference points. Until that happens, XRP is expected to continue oscillating within its established range, with $2.7346 acting as the lower white support line on the chart. Possible Shakeout Before The Break Although XRP has managed to hold above notable price points around $2.8 during its most recent corrections, there’s always the possibility of a strong downside move. CoinsKid also noted that a final shakeout could take place before any bullish breakout occurs.  Related Reading: Is The US Planning To Use XRP To Clear Trillion-Dollar Debt? New Developments Shock Community This shakeout could see the sellers gain temporary momentum and cause the XRP price to break below $2.8 and crash to lower price levels. In this case, the analyst pointed to the orange support trendline at $2.3375 as a possible level that XRP might retest in such a shakeout. CoinsKid linked this possibility to September, earning the reputation of being rektember during bull cycles. However, this September might be different, considering the current dynamics of the crypto market.  At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $3.06, up by 1.8% in the past 24 hours. The analyst noted that XRP’s macro structure will be bullish as long as it holds above the green line at $1.9061. This long-term support has so far underpinned the rally that began in late June. XRP is already up by about 10% from its September open, but it could possibly perform better in the later part of the month. The probability of a Fed rate cut in September is now above 97%, and this could play into a bullish run for XRP and many other large market-cap cryptocurrencies.

XRP Exchange reserves have surged by 1.2 billion in just a day, presenting a bearish outlook for the XRP price. This development comes as the token looks to hold above the psychological $3 level.  XRP Exchange Reserves Increase By 1.2 Billion In Just A Day A CryptoQuant analysis by CryptoOnchain revealed that XRP Exchange reserves jumped by 1.2 billion in a day across four crypto exchanges, with Binance leading the surge. Bithumb, Bybit, and OKX also experienced a major increase in their reserves, a development which CryptoOnchain noted shifted the volume of XRP’s reserves in an unprecedented manner.  Related Reading: Crypto Expert Shares How To Get To $1 Million With XRP Binance saw its reserve holdings increase from around 2.928 billion XRP to 3.538 billion XRP, an increase of over 610 million XRP in a single day. Meanwhile, Bithumb saw its holdings increase from 1.647 billion to 2.519 billion, Bybit’s holdings increased from 188 million to 380 million XRP, and OKX’s XRP reserves jumped from 112,000 to 233 million.  This development is typically bearish, as an increase in crypto exchanges’ reserves indicates that investors are offloading their coins. This would also explain why XRP has underperformed in recent times and has struggled to hold above the psychological $3 price level. During this period, other altcoins like Solana and BNB have outperformed XRP, reaching new local highs. Accumulation Rather Than Sell-offs CryptoOnchain revealed that the increase in XRP Exchange reserves is a case of accumulation rather than the typical sell-offs. The analyst noted that the price chart indicates that this heavy accumulation occurred precisely at the key support level of around $2.73, a level that has previously prevented the altcoin from experiencing massive declines.  Related Reading: XRP Price Setting Up For Next Leg With Expected Targets Reaching $19.27 The analyst then pointed to the RSI and MACD indicators a day after the increase in the XRP Exchange reserves, which shows a decrease in selling pressure on the token.CryptoOnchain explained that this could mean that the heavy buying by exchanges was aimed at accumulation rather than immediate injection into the market.  CryptoOnchain also noted that the pattern of these large accumulations across the crypto exchanges and at a critical support level could be a sign of institutional coordination or an upcoming event. Notably, the XRP ETFs could launch next month, which would represent a significant development for the XRP price.  The analyst stated that if the current support holds and buying volumes continue, the XRP price could rally to higher resistances at $3.34 and $3.58. However, CryptoOnchain warned that if the support is broken, selling pressure could turn the increase in XRP Exchange reserves into an opportunity for massive supply.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $3.06, up over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Ripple has carried out a series of large RLUSD burns in recent weeks to remove millions of the stablecoin from circulation. According to data from the RLUSD burn tracker @RL_Tracker, more than 2.7 million RLUSD were recently destroyed in a single transaction, the biggest burn in many weeks.  Ripple Burns Massive Amounts Of RLUSD Crypto burns are not new to the crypto industry, especially when it comes to stablecoins. Interestingly, data from the RLUSD burn tracker, @RL_Tracker, has revealed an uptick in the amount of RLUSD burned in the past two weeks, which is worth noting. Related Reading: What Does AMM Liquidity Pools Mean For XRP And RLUSD Holders? Ripple Exec Answers Particularly, the latest data from @RL_Tracker, which was revealed in a post on the social media platform X, shows that 2,714,248 RLUSD were recently burned at RLUSD Treasury. Blockchain records from on-chain analytics platform Etherscan confirm that these tokens were transferred into a null address from which they cannot be recovered or used, effectively reducing the outstanding supply for good. This was not an isolated occurrence. Ripple has been carrying out a string of large burns in recent weeks, with notable examples including two transactions of 1,000,000 RLUSD each on September 3 and another 1,000,000 RLUSD burn on August 29. Together, these actions have brought the total burned supply to about six million RLUSD tokens in a very short span However, these reductions have been characterized by issuances of millions of tokens in the past few days. Most recently, @RL_Tracker reported that 312,000 RLUSD were minted by the RLUSD Treasury in the past 24 hours.  What’s Going On With RLUSD Burns? This back-and-forth between burning and minting is part of Ripple’s supply management cycle of RLUSD, where tokens are constantly adjusted in response to market demand and redemptions.  Related Reading: Is Ripple Dumping XRP? Pundit Calls Out Founders, Threatens To Take Action RLUSD is pegged 1:1 to the US dollar and operates on both the XRP Ledger and Ethereum. Like other asset-backed stablecoins, it is fully collateralized by fiat reserves and subject to monthly attestations. When demand for RLUSD rises, Ripple issues new tokens into circulation. On the other hand, excess supply is no longer needed when tokens are redeemed for dollars, and Ripple burns the surplus by sending it to an inaccessible address. Stablecoin mints and burns are not unique to Ripple. Tether, the largest stablecoin issuer, regularly conducts large-scale mints and burns of USDT to adjust supply. The key difference from normal cryptocurrency burns, such as those seen with Shiba Inu, is that stablecoin burns are not carried out to create scarcity, which contributes to price action.  At present, RLUSD’s total supply is around 728.7 million tokens and all minted tokens are actively being circulated. The stablecoin has a market cap of about $728 million and has seen its trading volume climb above $87 million in the past 24 hours. It also continues to hold its $1 peg firmly.

Crypto analyst Whale Guru has outlined his targets for altcoins on their next massive pump to the upside. He predicted that the Ethereum price would reach as high as $25,000 and expects the XRP price to reach triple digits.  XRP Price To Reach $300 As Ethereum Rallies To $25,000 In an X post, Whale Guru predicted that the XRP price would reach $300 as Ethereum rallies to $25,000. He highlighted these price levels as his targets for the next pump to the upside. Meanwhile, the analyst also predicted that SOL would reach $2,000, DOGE would reach $5, SUI would reach $10, HYPE would reach $400, WLFI, and PENGU would both reach $10. Related Reading: XRP Price Confirms Descending Trendline Breakout, Here Are The Targets However, Whale Guru didn’t provide any basis for these ambitious targets for Ethereum, XRP, and the other crypto assets he mentioned. Notably, a rally to $300 for the XRP price represents a 100x increase from its current price. This is one of the largest gains among all the cryptocurrencies, the analyst mentioned.  There are several factors that members of the XRP community have alluded to, which could spark massive gains for the XRP price, although the $300 target remains far off. One of these factors includes the imminent launch of the XRP ETFs. Community member Finance Bull recently highlighted the ETFs as what could be the next institutional catalyst for XRP.  The ETFs are expected to have a similar impact to the one the Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs had on BTC and ETH, respectively. Notably, Canary Capital CEO Steven McClurg has predicted that the XRP ETFs could record up to $5 billion in inflows in their first month of trading, which is bullish for the XRP price. He also believes that the XRP ETFs could outperform the Ethereum ETFs.  XRP Targets $4.50 As Momentum Builds Crypto analyst CasiTrades has provided a more conservative target for the XRP price, stating that it is targeting $4.50 as the consolidation period ends and momentum builds. In an X post, she revealed that the altcoin has broken out of its months-long consolidation and that confirmation of the breakout is occurring with the test of the $3 level now in play.  Related Reading: XRP RSI Remains Bullish As Support Levels Hold, Price Eyes Break Above $3.6 CasiTrades stated that the next areas to watch are $3.08 and $3.27 when the XRP price clears $3. She indicated that the key is for major Fibonacci levels to turn into support, so a breakout to either of those prices will set up a clean backtest to the key Fib levels. These key levels are the .382 support at $3 and the .236 resistance at $3.25. She added that the Fibonacci extensions point toward the $4.50 zone as a breakout target.  At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $3, up almost 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

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. Related Reading: XRP Influencer Addresses Rumors Of Apple’s $1.5 Billion Buy, What’s The Truth? Egrag says the mood among buyers is clear. Bulls are not only waiting; they are preparing for a rally. 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. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price To $150,000, Ethereum At $8,000, And An Altcoin Season? Analyst Reveals When In the event of an E Wave trend, the XRP price would be expected to see a steep decline. 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.

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.
