XRPL’s Batch V1.1 upgrade is almost at the doorstep, but the market loves translating “upgrade” directly into “buying pressure and price is about to surge.”

So far, it has obtained support from 30/35 validators. If voting remains above the threshold, the upgrade is expected to be activated on September 29. This upgrade enables multiple transactions to be packaged into an atomic operation, benefiting XRPL’s usability in payment, RWA, and institutional-grade settlement scenarios. Source: CryptoNews.

Two clear observations stand out: first, XRP has risen noticeably over the past week, showing strong signs that funds are pricing in the upgrade expectation early; second, if activation goes smoothly, sentiment could continue. However, if trading volume fails to keep up, the pullback pressure after the benefits are realized may be amplified. Do you care more about “continuation after activation,” or “the pullback after expectations are fulfilled”?
