XRP Rockets After NASDAQ Crypto Index Inclusion—Traders Scramble for Position

NASDAQ just handed XRP a golden ticket—and the market’s already pricing in the hype. The digital asset surged double-digits within hours of the index listing going live, proving once again that crypto moves faster than Wall Street’s morning coffee orders.

Why This Matters

Institutional validation? Check. Liquidity boost? Inevitable. XRP’s sudden ascendance into NASDAQ’s crypto index signals a rare win for the oft-maligned token—though skeptics whisper this might just be another 'buy the rumor, sell the news' circus act.

The Cynic’s Corner

Let’s be real: indices love volatility almost as much as hedge funds love charging fees for 'exposure.' But for now, XRP holders are riding high—until the next regulatory curveball, anyway.

XRP’s NASDAQ Listing Makes the Altcoin’s Price Surge

The NASDAQ Crypto Index had only Bitcoin and Ethereum previously and the latest announcement confirms that XRP, Solana, Cardano (ADA), and Stellar (XLM) are part of the ticker. The inclusion of the altcoins has made the broader markets turn bullish with new investments entering the fold. Top financial institutions are turning towards the cryptocurrency market and the development is lifting investor’s enthusiasm.

If XRP carries the momentum forward, its price could breach the $2.5 level next. Bitcoin and ethereum also remained in the green on Monday and have surged close to 2% in the charts. If Bitcoin climbs above the $110,000 price range this week, then XRP could spike higher in the indices. All eyes are on the leading altcoins this month as they’re positioned to rally and deliver profits to investors.
