Another analyst noted that Bitcoin has risen from $27K to 74K in about two years, while XRP could match that rise over a much shorter span. That’s a bold statement, but the timing feels ripe.
ETF Approved Odds
Based on predictions by Polymatethere is an 83% chance that the SEC will approve the XRP ETF. Celebrities like Bitwise and Grayscale have filings. Once they get green light, an institutional flow can pour in. Some of the listed leveraged XRP futures in the US are already trading frequently and show strong demand.

What’s coming next
A break above $3.4 sets a new cycle higher. Hitting $5.80 means double the price today. It’s not easy. Traders carefully look at RSI, moving averages, and whale activity. ETF Front Regulation News is extremely important. For now, the XRP Bulls have a reason to cheer, but they also need patience.
