The post XRP Price Prediction: Could a Ripple–Cardano Deal Trigger a 79% Rally? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
XRP is facing heavy pressure as the crypto market continues its downtrend. After Bitcoin fell below $80K, XRP’s Open Interest dropped sharply from $3.22 billion to $2.83 billion, showing that many investors are exiting the market. This decline suggests there is less confidence in XRP for now, and if selling pressure continues, XRP could drop further to $1.62 or even $1.50 in the near term.
Ripple Video Sparks ADA Partnership Rumors
Even though the market isn’t doing great right now, Ripple has dropped a new video that’s getting a lot of attention. In that video, people noticed the Cardano (ADA) logo, and it’s making some think that Ripple and Cardano might be working together on something big. The video talks about tokenization, simply turning real-world stuff like property or art into digital tokens, and says this space could grow into an $18 trillion industry by 2033.
Since both Ripple and Cardano are U.S.-based projects, some believe they could team up, especially now that political support for crypto in the U.S. seems to be growing. Plus, Ripple has been pushing ahead with projects like its RLUSD stablecoin. So, if they really are joining forces, it could mean something major is coming in the world of crypto and digital assets.
How Would XRP React?
XRP is showing signs of recovery after last week’s sharp drop, climbing back to $1.92 as investors buy the dip. Despite the bounce, the overall sentiment remains cautious due to Trump’s ongoing tariff announcements and weak network activity. On-chain data suggests XRP is undervalued, which could support a rebound, but slow demand and bearish indicators like the MACD and RSI are keeping traders on edge. Holding above $2 is key for any meaningful upside, but for now, the market is still testing the waters.
If the Ripple–Cardano partnership becomes official, XRP could see a major price rally. Technical analysis shows that XRP could first return to the $2.15 level, its recent high. The next key range lies between $2.08 and $2.62, an important volume zone where XRP has traded in the past.
Technically, a breakout above $2.08 would signal strength, possibly pushing XRP to $2.41 or even $2.62. In a more bullish scenario, the price could reach $3.40, marking a 79% rally from current levels.
For now, the Ripple and Cardano partnership remains unconfirmed, and some believe the ADA logo in the video could have been added by mistake or by AI. Still, the speculation has sparked excitement among XRP supporters. While the potential is high, the current market mood remains cautious, and further downside is possible if Bitcoin continues to fall.
