The ETF for XRP is set to launch on April 30, 2025, which could enhance liquidity and institutional adoption. Based on historical cycles, XRP price predictions are as follows: in the short term, the conservative target is $2.70, aligning with the upward momentum of 2017, while in a bullish scenario, XRP could reach $27 if ETF flows reverse the demand for Bitcoin ETFs. In the long term, a very bullish scenario could drive XRP to $120, requiring mass adoption and regulatory clarity.

The impact of ETFs may reduce volatility and increase stability, and historical patterns indicate tremendous potential. However, there are still major risks, especially the ongoing legal battles between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Traders should monitor the immediate resistance level at $2.00 and watch the volume of ETF launches, as a decrease in volume may indicate weak interest, while high volume confirms strong demand.
