In the cryptocurrency market, XRP is becoming a focal point worth paying attention to. With Ethereum (ETH) performing excellently in the second half of the bull run, XRP is also expected to become another major driving force. The main advantage of XRP lies in its unique positioning: the combination of cross-border payments and the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA). This strategic positioning has remained consistent since the project's inception. Now, with the legal dispute with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) settled, Ripple can finally focus on advancing its business development. It is worth noting that XRP primarily serves inter-institutional transfers, which means that once institutional demand surges, its impact will be very direct and significant. In the past two years, the main directions the United States has been promoting for encryption—such as compliance frameworks, payment clearing, and asset tokenization—are all highly aligned with Ripple's business direction. Recently, Ripple has been actively promoting its application for a banking license in the United States. If successful, this will greatly expand its influence in the financial infrastructure sector. In addition, the XRP spot ETF is expected to be launched no later than October, and at the same time, Japan is also advancing the process of a dual ETF for Bitcoin and XRP. These initiatives will bring new inflow channels for XRP. Although some question the growth potential of XRP due to its large market capitalization, the reality may be surprising. With the accumulation of these positive factors, XRP is likely to experience a strong bull run, breaking through these doubts. For investors, now may be the best time to wait for the main upward wave of XRP to arrive. With the growing demand for cross-border payments and the development of the trend of physical asset tokenization, XRP is expected to play a more important role in the future cryptocurrency market.
