The XRP exchange-traded fund is set to launch on April 30, 2025, which could enhance liquidity and institutional adoption. Based on historical cycles, the price predictions for XRP are as follows: in the short term, the conservative target is $2.70, which aligns with the bullish momentum of 2017, while in a bullish scenario, XRP could reach $27 if the inflows of exchange-traded funds reflect the demand for traded Bitcoin funds. In the long term, an extremely bullish scenario could drive XRP to $120, which would require mass adoption and regulatory clarity.
The impact of exchange-traded funds may reduce volatility and increase stability, and historical patterns indicate significant potential. However, there are still major risks, particularly 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 keep an eye on the trading volume of the ETF launch, as a decrease in volume may indicate waning interest, while high volume confirms strong demand.
