July 19, 2025 — Crypto Times
In a strong comeback, XRP has captured investor attention once again as it records a 24% surge in the past week, fueled by renewed institutional interest and increasing use cases in global finance. The recent regulatory clarity from U.S. and European financial bodies has turned XRP into one of the most promising assets in the crypto space.
✅ Legal Battles Behind, Future Ahead
After years of litigation with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Ripple Labs — the company behind XRP — emerged victorious in late 2024. Courts officially ruled that XRP is not a security, paving the way for wider listings, integrations, and adoption. Since the ruling, XRP has been relisted on major U.S. exchanges like Coinbase, Kraken, and Binance US.
🌐 Real-World Use Cases
Ripple’s cross-border payment system, RippleNet, now boasts partnerships with over 500 banks and financial institutions, including some of the largest players in Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America. XRP’s utility as a bridge currency has proven faster and cheaper than traditional SWIFT-based systems.
Recent updates to RippleNet’s On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) system allow settlements in under 3 seconds, with near-zero fees — a critical feature that’s gaining traction among central banks exploring CBDC interoperability.
📊 Market Performance
Current Price: $1.92 (up from $1.55 last week)
Market Cap: $104 billion
Rank: #5 on CoinMarketCap
24h Volume: $6.3 billion
Experts now eye $2.50 as the next resistance, with bullish predictions pointing to $5+ if momentum continues through Q3.
