XRP News Today: RTX Gains on $17.5M Funding and Cross-Chain Push as XRP Resists 537% Gains from Dumps

Cryptocurrency analysts in 2025 are closely evaluating the trajectories of Remittix (RTX), Cardano (ADA), and Ripple (XRP) as emerging and established projects vie for market relevance. RTX has positioned itself as a cross-chain payment solution, emphasizing real-world utility in global remittances and decentralized finance (DeFi). With a presale price of $0.0876 and over 570 million tokens sold, RTX’s ecosystem is bolstered by a $17.5 million funding round and a beta Web3 wallet slated for Q3 2025. The project’s integration with Ethereum and Solana, combined with its focus on low-cost crypto-to-fiat transfers for freelancers across 30+ countries, has drawn comparisons to ADA and XRP [1]. Analysts suggest RTX could disrupt centralized exchanges if its scalable infrastructure and business-grade APIs gain traction [1].

Cardano (ADA) remains a focal point for long-term investors, despite criticism over its slower development pace. ADA’s roadmap, which includes DeFi scalability upgrades and decentralized identity solutions, has maintained its status as a trusted DeFi project. Price targets of $3–$5 are cited by analysts, though its market performance has lagged behind RTX in 2025. The project’s reliance on gradual technical advancements contrasts with RTX’s faster execution, raising questions about ADA’s ability to retain dominance among undervalued crypto projects [1].

Ripple (XRP) faces a mixed outlook as it navigates legal uncertainties and institutional partnerships. A notable development in July 2025 involved former co-founder Jed McCaleb’s 2020 transfer of 266.3 million XRP—valued at $148 million at the time—from a settlement account to his personal wallet. While critics initially viewed the move as bearish, analysts like Dark Defender noted that the transaction had no sustained negative impact on XRP’s price structure. McCaleb’s tokens, if retained, would now be worth approximately $940 million, underscoring XRP’s resilience against large-scale sales [2]. Similarly, co-founder Chris Larsen’s $175 million XRP sale drew comparisons to McCaleb’s activity, though community debates persist over whether the funds were later liquidated. Despite these events, XRP’s institutional adoption and settlement use cases continue to attract interest, with some forecasts suggesting a potential $10 price target if bullish momentum holds [2].

The broader analysis highlights a shift in investor priorities toward projects with tangible utility and real-world adoption. RTX’s emphasis on cross-border remittances aligns with growing demand for scalable payment solutions, while XRP’s institutional traction and ADA’s long-term roadmap reflect diverse strategies in the DeFi space. However, RTX’s rapid development and partnerships with fintech firms have positioned it as a strong contender to challenge established players, particularly as XRP’s growth stabilizes and ADA’s execution timelines remain uncertain [1].
