Ripple has added Turkey to its list of priority markets for digital assets. Its foothold there is an RLUSD stablecoin corridor combined with custody partnerships, targeting roughly $200 billion in local crypto demand. The lira’s ongoing depreciation is the biggest driver. Regional expansion narratives tend to be event-driven: capital flows in as the news gains traction, prices pull back to confirm after the rollout, and then a second wave follows.

XRP is currently at 1.50, down 1.7% over 24 hours. Under this strategy, 1.45–1.48 is the accumulation zone supported by the narrative; reclaiming 1.56 would signal that the trend is taking off. BTC is currently at 85307, down 1.1%. When the broader market is soft, thematic coins are more likely to make independent moves. Building a position in stages fits the rhythm better than going all in at once. #XRP
