XRP News Today: XRP Surges to $3.52 as Trump's Pro-Crypto Policies Spur Institutional Investment

XRP holders are being advised to maintain vigilance as influential crypto commentator Levi of Crypto Crusaders issues a bullish warning tied to U.S. political developments. In a recent post, Levi emphasized that “XRP holders, you are not going to want to mess this up,” highlighting Donald Trump’s anticipated actions as a potential catalyst for renewed market momentum. Trump, since assuming office in January 2025, has taken a pro-crypto stance, signing Executive Order 14178 to dismantle prior central bank digital currency (CBDC) initiatives and banning U.S. CBDC development. This shift has positioned private cryptocurrencies like XRP, Bitcoin, and Solana for favorable regulatory conditions. Trump has also named XRP among a select group of digital assets for strategic reserves, signaling institutional interest in the asset [1].

The price action of XRP reflects this optimism. Earlier in July 2025, the token surged to an all-time high of $3.52, driven by legislative progress including the GENIUS Act and the CLARITY Act, which aim to clarify regulatory frameworks for crypto. Institutional investment has further bolstered confidence, with corporate investors adding $421 million in XRP and on-chain data indicating large wallet accumulations exceeding $7.1 billion. However, XRP has since retreated to $3.19, with analysts describing the pullback as a healthy market cooldown. Realized volatility has dropped to 44%, the lowest since Trump’s re-election victory, suggesting a consolidation phase ahead of a potential breakout [1].

Levi’s warning extends beyond Trump’s policies, pointing to potential shifts in Federal Reserve leadership as a key factor. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has hinted at Trump’s interest in replacing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, a move that could influence monetary policy and interest rates. Such changes, analysts argue, might accelerate demand for cryptocurrencies, particularly assets with strong technical fundamentals like XRP. The token has already rebounded above key support at $3.00, with short-term targets at $4–$5 and longer-term projections toward $10 or more, contingent on continued legislative momentum and market confidence [1].

Separate analyses from other sources add layers to the bullish narrative. A report from aldesainvestment.com identifies a “bull flag” pattern in XRP’s price chart, suggesting a potential target of $17, with a longer-term outlook toward $27. The analyst attributes this to a “setup for one of its most explosive moves yet,” though such forecasts remain speculative and dependent on market conditions [3]. Meanwhile, social media commentary has drawn parallels to historical XRP price behavior, with one Instagram post noting the token’s recent “flash[ing] the SAME signal before a 464% rally.” While the post attributes this to a technical signal, it does not specify the timeframe or methodology, leaving interpretations open to individual investors [4].

Despite these optimistic signals, analysts caution that XRP’s long-term success hinges on regulatory clarity and broader adoption. Ongoing legal challenges faced by Ripple, the company behind XRP, continue to impact institutional interest. Nevertheless, the convergence of favorable political developments, technical indicators, and growing institutional support has reignited retail investor enthusiasm. As Trump’s pro-crypto agenda gains traction and market conditions stabilize, XRP holders are urged to remain engaged, as the next major price move could be imminent [1].
