XRP News Today: Trump Admin Policies Fuel XRP Price Hike Amid Regulatory Clarity

The Trump administration has introduced a regulatory framework that analysts suggest could support a continued upward trend in the price of XRP, Ripple's native token. A newly released document highlights a collaborative oversight model between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), signaling a more structured and business-friendly environment for digital assets [1]. This shift may address long-standing regulatory ambiguities that have hindered XRP's growth potential and could pave the way for broader institutional adoption [2].

As of February 15, 2025, XRP was valued at $2.76, with a total market capitalization estimated between $142 billion and $159.7 billion. The token remains among the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap, supporting its role as a key player in cross-border payment solutions [1]. The document also notes that XRP benefits from a pre-mined structure and does not rely on energy-intensive proof-of-work mechanisms, enabling faster and more cost-effective transactions [1].

The document references the Trump administration’s digital asset report, released on June 30, 2025, which outlines a comprehensive regulatory strategy aimed at fostering innovation in the crypto space [1]. This aligns with the academic analysis that a change in U.S. leadership has created a more favorable environment for XRP. The administration’s softer stance, combined with a potential replacement of SEC Chairman Gary Gensler, is seen as a positive development that could reduce legal uncertainties surrounding XRP [2].

In addition to regulatory shifts, recent on-chain activity indicates bullish momentum. Whale accumulation and market analysis suggest that a breakout above the $3.35–$3.60 resistance level could lead to a price increase to $6 or even $9–$10 by September 2025, according to some analysts [4]. The easing of SEC scrutiny—a major hurdle since 2020—further supports the token’s potential to attract new investors and gain mainstream acceptance [5].

The Trump administration’s strategic interest in crypto is also reflected in the recent filing for a crypto ETF that includes XRP alongside Bitcoin and Solana. This move suggests an institutional push to integrate digital assets into traditional investment portfolios and may enhance XRP’s visibility in the market [3].

As the regulatory environment continues to evolve, XRP appears well-positioned to benefit from the administration's pro-crypto policies. If it can maintain its momentum and overcome key resistance levels, further price appreciation and broader adoption could follow in the coming months.
