XRP News Today: Ethereum Solana XRP Surge on Institutional Adoption and Upgrades Cold Wallet CWT Gains 285x in Presale

Cryptocurrencies are showing renewed momentum in mid-2025, with Ethereum, Solana, and XRP gaining traction across institutional and retail markets. Among these, Cold Wallet’s native token $CWT is emerging as a unique contender, offering users cashback rewards for everyday crypto activities. This model differentiates it from traditional tokens, which often rely on speculative hype rather than utility.

Cold Wallet’s $CWT is currently available in a presale at $0.00924, with analysts projecting a potential listing price of $0.35171 and a post-launch target of up to $2, offering a 285x upside [1]. The platform’s tiered reward system allows users to earn higher cashback rates based on their token holdings, with no lockups or staking required. Additionally, a referral system incentivizes users to invite others, further driving early adoption [2].

Ethereum has maintained strong momentum, with the price hovering above $3,800 and over $1.8 billion in ETF inflows recorded in July alone. This outperformed Bitcoin’s inflows in the same period, highlighting growing institutional interest in ETH. The recent Pectra upgrade introduced enhancements such as flexible validator thresholds and improved smart contract capabilities, bolstering developer confidence. With over 913,000 ETH burned or lost, the supply has effectively decreased by more than 5%. Analysts are forecasting short-term price targets between $4,200–$4,500, with long-term expectations ranging from $6,000 to $9,000 [3].

Solana continues to rise, trading between $185–$190 after breaking key resistance levels. Institutional support is growing, as seen in the REX‑Osprey Solana + Staking ETF reaching $100 million in assets under management and Bit Mining raising $300 million for a Solana treasury. The July 24 roadmap highlights the ACE (Application-Controlled Execution) upgrade, which will grant smart contracts more granular execution control, a major boost for DeFi applications. Analysts are looking for a potential move to $250–$400 in the near term, with longer-term forecasts between $500–$600 [4].

XRP has broken above $3.20 for the first time since 2021, driven by legal clarity following Ripple’s settlement with the SEC and the launch of XRP ETFs in both U.S. and international markets. Institutional interest has surged, with open interest up 143% and ETF trading volume increasing by more than 50% in July. Ripple’s real-world partnerships with major banks underscore XRP’s growing adoption in cross-border payments. Analysts are setting near-term targets at $5.25–$6.19, with long-term forecasts reaching $9–$10 or higher [5].

While meme coins and speculative tokens are losing relevance, Ethereum, Solana, and XRP are showing strong on-chain and institutional activity. However, Cold Wallet stands out for offering a fundamentally different value proposition—rewards for participation. With a working product, active presale, and cashback incentives tied to real usage, Cold Wallet represents a novel approach to crypto utility and growth.
