"🚨 $XRP Price Prediction: What if Every Bank in Japan Starts Using It? Currently,$XRP is trading around $2, but experts believe its price could skyrocket if more banks adopt it. Let's explore a hypothetical scenario where all Japanese banks start using XRP. Japan has one of the world's largest banking industries, with over $9.65 trillion in assets. If $XRP becomes a standard bridge asset for settlements, its market cap could grow to 10% of Japan's banking assets, reaching $965 billion. #BinanceAlphaAlert #TrumpTariffs #CPIWatch #WriteToEarnUpgrade #BinanceBlockchainWeek This could push $XRP 's price to around $16.08, representing an 800% increase from current levels.
Why Japan? Ripple has already partnered with Japanese financial institutions like SBI Holdings and Mizuho Financial Group. In fact, SBI Remit has launched Japan's first XRP-powered international remittance service.
ZRO holders will participate in the third fee switch vote at 00:00 (UTC) on December 20. This vote is held once every six months and allows holders to decide whether to activate the protocol fee switch. If the proposal passes, protocol fees will be used to buy back and burn ZRO. The voting window runs from 00:00 on December 20 to 00:00 on December 27. The quorum requirement is 40.59% of the circulating ZRO supply, meaning 230 million ZRO must be eligible to vote. If quorum is met, the proposal will pass only if more than 50% of the votes are in favor. LayerZero Labs, the LayerZero Foundation, and related affiliated parties will abstain from voting. $ZRO #USNonFarmPayrollReport #BTCVSGOLD #BinanceBlockchainWeek #TrumpTariffs #BinanceAlphaAlert

Solana ETF Inflows Accelerate U.S. Solana spot ETFs logged $10.99 million in net inflows in a single day. Bitwise's BSOL led with $6.96 million, pushing its cumulative inflows to $613 million, while Fidelity's FSOL added $2.89 million. Total $SOL ETF inflows now stand at $726 million with $900 million in net assets.

6 Weeks of Spot ETF Inflows Couldn’t Lift XRP Price — On-Chain Data Explains Why
XRP price is up about 2.3% over the past 24 hours, but the bigger picture remains weak. The token is still down roughly 14% over the past month and about 8.5% over the last seven days. That weakness stands out because it comes during six straight weeks of spot ETF inflows. On the surface, that looks bullish. In reality, the details explain why the price has stalled. Six Weeks of ETF Inflows, but Momentum Is Cooling Spot XRP ETFs have now recorded inflows for six consecutive weeks. The run began in mid-November and pushed cumulative net inflows above $1.01 billion. The strongest demand came early. The week of November 14 saw $243.05 million in net inflows. That was followed by $179.60 million on November 21 and $243.95 million on November 28. Momentum peaked again in early December with $230.74 million during the December 5 week. Want more token insights like this? Sign up for Editor Harsh Notariya’s Daily Crypto Newsletter here. Since then, inflows have cooled sharply. The December 11 week dropped to $93.57 million, and the most recent week ending December 16 added just $19.44 million. So while the table shows “six weeks of inflows,” the trend underneath is slowing. ETF demand is still positive, but it is no longer accelerating. That cooling helps explain why the XRP price has failed to follow earlier inflow strength higher. On-Chain Signals Show a Split Between Holder Groups If ETF demand were cooling but on-chain holders were stepping in aggressively, the price could still stabilize. That has not fully happened. One concerning signal comes from the percent of XRP supply last active more than one year ago. That metric has jumped from 48.75% on December 2 to 51.00%, its highest level in about a month. When older coins start moving, it often means long-held supply is becoming active, which can add sell pressure even without panic. At the same time, another long-term holder group is behaving differently. The Hodler net position change metric for wallets holding XRP longer than 155 days shows selling pressure easing. Net outflows peaked around 216.86 million XRP on December 11, then declined to about 154.57 million XRP by December 16. That is a reduction of roughly 29% in net selling. This creates a mixed picture. Some long-term supply is waking up, which is bearish. But some of those holders are selling less, which has helped the XRP price avoid a sharp breakdown, yet. However, one theory could be that the coin movement has happened, and these holders are waiting to sell into price bounces. Unless the Hodler net position change metric flips green (net buying), the XRP price bounces might not hold. XRP Price Levels Decide Whether the Stall Turns Into a Drop Price action reflects this balance. The XRP price is trading inside a falling wedge and remains stuck in the middle of its recent range. For bulls, the level that matters is $2.28. A daily close above it would break the wedge and imply roughly a 19% upside from current levels, shifting momentum back toward buyers. Downside risk remains more immediate. If XRP loses $1.74, the 0.618 Fibonacci level, the chart opens toward $1.59, with a deeper extension near $1.41 if broader market weakness continues. Right now, ETF inflows alone are not enough. With demand cooling and on-chain signals split, XRP price remains stuck between support holding and sellers slowly regaining control. #etf #xrp
Binance Offers $5M Whistleblower Reward After Insider Trading Scandal
Binance published a comprehensive listing framework Tuesday while blacklisting seven entities accused of falsely claiming to secure token listings for payment, offering up to $5 million for evidence of fraudulent activity. The announcement arrives 10 days after the exchange suspended an employee for insider trading involving a memecoin promoted through official Binance channels. The world's largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume said it will immediately disqualify and permanently blacklist projects discovered using third-party intermediaries for listing applications. What Happened Binance's new framework outlines a three-stage listing process spanning Alpha, Futures, and Spot markets while emphasizing that all applications must come directly from project founders or core team members. The exchange blacklisted BitABC, Central Research, May/Dannie, Andrew Lee, Suki Yang, Fiona Lee, and Kenny Z after internal audits identified them as falsely representing Binance connections. Officials confirmed no legitimate Binance representative solicits payment for listing services. The exchange said it maintains a dedicated audit channel at [email protected] for reporting fraudulent brokers. Binance warned that fraudsters often present themselves as employees or authorized listing agents while demanding fees in exchange for guaranteed outcomes. The December 7 insider trading incident involved an employee who used the @BinanceFutures X account to promote a "year of the yellow fruit" memecoin less than one minute after its on-chain creation at 05:29 UTC. The token surged 150% within the first hour before reaching a $6 million market cap and generating $16 million in trading volume. Binance suspended the employee within 24 hours, contacted law enforcement, and paid $100,000 split among five whistleblowers who reported the activity. Read also: Marshall Islands Launches First Blockchain Universal Basic Income On Stellar Why It Matters The crackdown marks Binance's second insider trading case in 2025, raising questions about internal controls at an exchange handling approximately 55% of global cryptocurrency spot volume. Co-CEO He Yi, who assumed leadership following Changpeng Zhao's departure, faces mounting pressure to restore confidence in listing practices. The new framework requires comprehensive evaluation of product quality, user metrics, tokenomics, team backgrounds, and technical risks before projects advance through listing stages. For tokens already trading elsewhere, Binance additionally assesses trading volume, valuation, liquidity, and token distribution. The exchange emphasized projects demonstrating strong fundamentals may progress from Alpha featuring to Futures listings, with top performers potentially reaching Spot markets. Binance's approach contrasts with Coinbase's 2022 scandal where a product manager and associates traded on listing information for over $1 million in gains, leading to Department of Justice charges and guilty pleas. Industry data from Chainalysis shows insider abuses accounted for 8% of detected exchange vulnerabilities in 2024, with $120 million in illicit flows. The listing transparency push coincides with heightened regulatory scrutiny across major markets as traditional financial institutions increase cryptocurrency infrastructure investments. Binance said projects that proactively report middlemen attempting to charge fees will receive priority review consideration.

If Every Bank in Japan Starts Using XRP, Here’s How High XRP May Rise
$XRP We recently assessed how much the XRP price could rise if every bank in Japan started leveraging the token’s bridge capability for banking operations. Today, XRP trades around the $2 level, but most market participants argue that this price does not yet reflect the crypto asset’s long-term utility. They believe broader adoption could lead to higher valuations, especially if major financial institutions adopt XRP. One market that could make a difference for XRP is the Japanese financial scene, where Ripple and XRP have built longstanding ties to the banking and payments sector. ✨Japan’s Large Banking Industry Notably, Japan operates one of the world’s largest banking industries by total assets. The sector revolves around three dominant megabanks, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, and Mizuho Financial Group, alongside a wide network of regional banks, shinkin cooperative banks, and other financial institutions.
According to the latest comprehensive data from the Bank of Japan, domestically licensed banks held approximately 1,447 trillion yen in total assets as of the end of November 2024, equivalent to about $9.65 trillion. Meanwhile, by February 2025, total deposits across all financial institutions reached around 1,047 trillion yen, or $6.98 trillion, representing a year-on-year increase of 1.4%. However, growth slowed later in the year, with estimates suggesting deposits rose to between 1,060 and 1,070 trillion yen by November 2025, reflecting annual growth of about 1.5%. Ordinary deposits accounted for about 650 trillion yen, while time deposits stood near 225 trillion yen as of late February 2025. Notably, loan-to-deposit ratios in August 2025 ranged from about 40% to 50% for major banks, 50% to 60% for regional lenders, and 60% to 70% for shinkin banks. Securities holdings reached roughly 300 to 350 trillion yen by the end of August 2025, making up about 40% of total assets. Interestingly, the country hosts around 100 city and regional banks, roughly 250 shinkin banks, and about 13,500 domestic branches as of September 2024. Collectively, Japanese banks control close to 10% of global banking assets. ✨XRP Price if All Japanese Banks Use It Given this scale, widespread use of XRP as a bridge asset for settlements could materially affect its price. To assess how much this impact could be, we asked Google Gemini to estimate how high XRP might trade under an aggressive adoption scenario. In response, Google Gemini put XRP’s current market cap near $120 billion, considering the $2 price. The chatbot then compared this valuation to the $9.65 trillion in assets held by Japanese banks and assumed, for modeling purposes, that XRP’s market cap could grow to 10% of that asset base. Under this assumption, XRP’s market value would rise to about $965 billion. Dividing that figure by the circulating supply produces a hypothetical price of roughly $16.08 per XRP, representing an increase of about 800% from current levels. XRP Price Prediction | Google Gemini Gemini admitted that this scenario remains extreme because settlement assets typically do not mirror balance sheet totals, and XRP would primarily support liquidity and transaction flows rather than represent bank assets directly. ✨XRP Already Establishing Relationships in Japan Importantly, XRP has already begun establishing relationships with Japanese financial institutions. In 2016, Ripple partnered with SBI Holdings to form SBI Ripple Asia, a joint venture designed to promote Ripple’s enterprise payment solutions across Asia, including Japan. That same year, SBI Holdings invested in Ripple’s $55 million Series B funding round, alongside other global banks, helping expand Ripple’s footprint in the region. Mizuho Financial Group also joined Ripple’s network during this period. By 2017, SBI Ripple Asia launched the Japan Bank Consortium, bringing together 61 Japanese banks that represented more than 80% of the country’s banking assets. Pilot programs using Ripple’s RC Cloud platform enabled real-time settlements for dozens of banks and laid the groundwork for future XRP liquidity use cases. In 2018, SBI introduced VCTRADE, Japan’s first bank-backed crypto exchange, with XRP as its initial focus. By 2021, SBI Remit rolled out Japan’s first XRP-powered international remittance service, using Ripple’s On-Demand Liquidity to facilitate faster and cheaper transfers in corridors such as Japan to the Philippines. 🚀🚀🚀 FOLLOW BE_Samik9💰💰💰 Appreciate the work. 😍 Thank You. 👍 FOLLOW BeMaster BuySmart 🚀 TO FIND OUT MORE $$$$$ 🤩 BE MASTER BUY SMART 💰🤩 🚀🚀🚀 PLEASE CLICK FOLLOW BE Samik9 - Thank You.

You won’t need to do anything; it’ll just start moving again. 🔥Upgrades usually mean: 🫡 Better security. 🫡 Faster transactions. 🫡 Possibly new features. So yeah, this brief pause is a necessary step toward a more solid foundation for $LUNC . If you’re integrating a stablecoin payments platform into your business, this is the kind of thing you need to be prepared for. 🚀In Summary🚀 Binance's LUNC suspension is a controlled pause to ensure everything runs smoothly during a network upgrade. While deposits and withdrawals are on hold, trading continues unaffected, and your funds remain secure. Plan ahead, and you won’t have any issues. These upgrades might be a hassle now, but they’re good for the long-term health of the network. #LUNCDream #BinanceBlockchainWeek #TrumpTariffs #Write2Earn

🔹 Job growth surprised to the upside: Payrolls increased by 64,000, coming in above expectations of 40,000. 🔹 But revisions tell a weaker story: October was sharply revised lower, showing a loss of 105,000 jobs, erasing much of the prior momentum. 🔹 Unemployment moved higher: The jobless rate climbed from 4.4% to 4.6%, slightly above forecasts of 4.5%, marking the highest reading in more than four years. $ETH
📊 What this means: While headline job creation beat estimates, rising unemployment and deep negative revisions point to cooling labor-market conditions beneath the surface. Slowing hiring, softer momentum, and mounting slack reinforce the view that policy easing will not be rushed. 🔐 Key takeaway: This report effectively closes the door on a January rate cut, keeping the Federal Reserve firmly in wait-and-see mode as it monitors labor slack, wage pressures, and broader economic resilience. If you enjoyed this update, don’t forget to like, follow, and share! 🩸 Thank you so much ❤️ $BNB
