【After XRP’s explosive rise in 2017, it went sideways for a long time—many people thought it was over. What happened instead?】
In that ICO bull market in 2017, XRP was pumped from just a few cents up to nearly three dollars, then traded sideways for a full two years. How many people called it a “junk coin” or “air coin.” And what happened? Those who mocked it ended up slapping their own heads in 2020.
Now, does this feel similar?
XRP is down nearly 60% from its ATH, and many people have already stopped paying attention. But the truly interesting signal isn’t the price—it’s the flow of funds behind it.
Within 48 hours, XRP funds recorded the largest net inflow since January 5. At the same time, Ripple has just announced that its Prime business is expanding into U.S. stock derivatives—where institutional clients can execute total return swaps on U.S. stocks, indices, and crypto assets.
In plain terms: Wall Street’s “proper” money can now, through Ripple’s channels, play both U.S. stocks and crypto assets. This isn’t small-scale tinkering; this is an infrastructure-level move.
Anyone who’s actually worked in traditional finance knows that when institutions enter the market, what they need isn’t “whether this coin will go up,” but “whether my compliance framework can actually be connected.” What Ripple is doing is exactly solving that problem.
Of course, some people will say: BTC broke below 79K, and XRP was leading lower yesterday—doesn’t that slap you in the face?
Not at all. Short-term price is sentiment; long-term price is fundamentals. The logic behind this XRP move was never about “trading a concept,” but about whether the business model of an “institutional access channel” can actually work.
From a business-model perspective, Ripple’s clients are banks and institutions—they want cross-border payment efficiency, not speculating on coins. As long as XRP holds a core position in this ecosystem, the price will eventually reflect the fundamentals.
At 1.45 support and 1.35 support, with 1.5 as resistance, the position isn’t bad. Whether this can be genuinely implemented depends on the institutional adoption data over the next few quarters.
You ask me what I think about this wave—my view is: it’s still in the first half. But if you only look at the candlesticks, you’ll miss what’s truly important.
With this XRP move, do you think the story of institutional adoption can really play out? Or are you only concerned about the price?
