XRP has increased from $0.55 to nearly $2.94 – an almost 500% increase in just one year. This result comes from three main factors: technological breakthroughs, reduced legal risks, and potential catalysts from the ETF.

Main growth drivers

🔹 Launch of EVM Sidechain (6/30):

Supporting smart contracts with Ethereum tools → opening up for DeFi, dApps on XRPL → attracting developers leaving Ethereum due to high gas fees.

🔹 Improved policy & regulation:

– Ripple is nearing the end of the lawsuit with the SEC.

– Limited penalty and de-escalation signals from both sides.

– The new US administration has a more positive view of XRP → paving the way for institutional participation.

🔹 Expectations for spot XRP ETF:

– SEC deadline is 10/17.

– If approved, funds will buy XRP to create a "creation basket" → potential supply shock.

XRP: Still potential?

✅ Scalable technology → new market

✅ Clearer legal framework → easier access to institutional capital

✅ ETF as a potential price catalyst

Rational investment strategy

Although the price is much higher than last year, XRP still has long-term potential. Investors should:

  • Avoid FOMO

  • Diversify the portfolio

  • Invest based on technology – legal arguments, not emotions
