CME Exchange Fuels XRP Rally as Solana and Bitcoin Pepe Gain Momentum in May 2025
XRP leads the altcoin rally with a 20% surge to $2.65, fueled by CME’s XRP futures launch on May 19 and growing ETF speculation. Institutional adoption appears to be accelerating as regulatory barriers diminish.
Solana maintains its upward trajectory, with analysts forecasting $300-$500 price targets by year-end. The blockchain’s speed and renewed institutional interest continue to drive momentum.
Bitcoin Pepe gains attention as a novel LAYER 2 solution, positioning itself as "Solana on Bitcoin" ahead of its May 31 exchange listing. The protocol aims to unlock $2 trillion in dormant BTC capital.
