During the period, it has outperformed the top two cryptos, Bitcoin and Ethereum. Experts believe that 2025 could be a landmark year for XRP. Why? Curious to know more? Read on!
Ripple’s Legal Settlement in the SEC Case
Ripple recently reached a positive settlement in its long-standing legal battle against the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The development has provided more clarity about the XRP regulatory environment. It is expected to encourage more institutional players to enter the market.
Stablecoin Regulation & Crypto Custody: A Game-Changer for Ripple
Ripple is planning to launch new stablecoins. Experts believe that new laws will support the stablecoin segment of Ripple immensely.
The SEC recently repealed SAB 121 and issued SAB 122. The new guideline allows banks and financial institutions to apply existing accounting standards for potential losses related to holding customer crypto. Instead of listing all custodied cryptos to liabilities, they can treat potential risks as contingent liabilities. With the new development, banks and other traditional financial institutions might be more willing to enter the crypto custody market.
Crypto researcher Anders claims that now that the rule is gone, institutional players might be more interested in offering crypto custody and they could use Ripple’s technology to do it, making Ripple’s custody services more popular.
XRP ETFs on the Horizon
Anders forecasts that an XRP Spot ETF will be approved by the US SEC in the second half of 2025.
At least 10 ETF fund management firms have expressed their interest to launch their XRP Spot ETFs.
Polymarket bettors suggest that there is a 84% chance that the US SEC will provide approval for an XRP Spot ETF in 2025.
Anders predicts that if the SEC approves an XRP ETF, the XRP price could reach as high as $8.
XRP’s Potential Role in the US Digital Asset Stockpile
Recently, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse hinted that XRP might be included in the US Digital Asset Stockpile – which was established by US President Donald Trump through an executive order.
In conclusion, with regulatory hurdles cleared and institutional adoption on the rise, XRP could be one of the biggest crypto success stories of 2025. Will Ripple’s momentum lead to a record-breaking rally? Only time will tell!
