XRP’s $10 Surge: Three Catalysts That Could Send Ripple Soaring
Ripple’s XRP has been stuck in the trenches—but these three factors could trigger a moonshot to double digits.
1. SEC Lawsuit Resolution: A clean legal win against the SEC would vaporize regulatory uncertainty overnight. Watch for a domino effect of exchange relistings and institutional inflows.
2. CBDC Adoption Wave: As central banks scramble to digitize currencies, Ripple’s rails could become the plumbing for half the planet’s money transfers. (Yes, even bureaucrats move slow sometimes.)
3. Liquidity Tsunami: If Bitcoin ETFs pull $50B into crypto, the altcoin casino will get its cut—and XRP’s army of retail bagholders will FOMO harder than a Wall Streeter chasing bonuses.
Will it happen? Maybe. But remember: in crypto, every ’fundamental breakthrough’ starts with a trader yelling ’number go up’ on Twitter.
XRP Breaks Its Chains
Ripple’s XRP struggled to gain momentum after the SEC filed a lawsuit against the fintech company. The financial watchdog alleged that the company sold unregistered securities. XRP even struggled to rally during the 2021 bull run.
The SEC recently dropped its litigation against Ripple, leading many to believe that XRP will finally hit a new all-time high. The pro-crypto administration of the US may have pushed the SEC into dropping the case. The SEC also has a new pro-Bitcoin candidate, Paul Atkins, at its helm. We may see the agency taking a more lenient approach to the crypto space.
3 Things That Can Take XRP To $10
1. ETF Approvals
There are about 10 active XRP ETF applications with the SEC. There is a high probability that the SEC will approve the ETFs, given Atkins’ pro-crypto stance. An ETF approval will likely lead to increased institutional money in the project. The move could cause XRP’s price to surge to new highs.
2. XRPL As An Alternative To SWIFT
The XRP Ledger has seen incredible growth over the last few years. The platform is very popular for cross-border remittances. Many anticipate XRPL being used as an alternative to SWIFT in the NEAR future.
3. More Adoption
With the lawsuit out of the way, XRP’s path seems to be quite clear. The asset could see a surge in mass adoption over the coming years. If an ETF is approved and the asset continues to grow its influence, it could surge to beyond $10 by the end of this decade.
