The report also highlights significant institutional interest, with WisdomTree and Coinshares filing for a spot XRP ETF. Simultaneously, Purpose Investments has proposed to launch the first XRP ETF in the world.
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has shared a slew of positive developments for the blockchain firm, sparking optimism for a potential XRP price rally ahead. He noted that the new US administration's pro-crypto stance has paved the way for innovation and growth. The CEO also emphasized the XRP Ledger's growing adoption, with notable partnerships and tokenization initiatives. Recently, former Ripple alumni Sean McBride also highlighted Ripple's strategy to boost XRPL revenue.
Experts predict a continued surge in XRP's value, driven by increasing institutional demand and favorable market conditions. As the crypto market enters a new era of growth, XRP is well-positioned to capitalize on the trend. Notably, the report also showed that Ripple's XRP holdings surged from 4.43 billion on September 30, 2024, to 4.48 billion on December 31, 2024.
