XRP to the Moon, this time for real?

You think XRP is just another crypto token stuck in limbo? Think again. Standard Chartered, the big British bank, is betting big on XRP.

They’re talking a potential 500% price jump in the next years, and I’m not just whistling Dixie. We’re looking at a potential leap from around $1.80 to $12.50 by the end of 2028.

ETFs are coming?

Now, you might be wondering what’s behind this optimism. Well, let’s start with Donald Trump’s return to the White House.

His pro-crypto stance has been like a shot of adrenaline for XRP. After his win, the token skyrocketed from around $0.50 to over $2.50 in no time.

And while it’s since cooled off, Standard Chartered believes the real fireworks are yet to come.

They’re counting on the approval of XRP ETFs to be the catalyst for this bull run. And with companies like Grayscale and Bitwise racing to launch these ETFs, the stage is set.

Strategic reserve?

But here’s the thing, guys. Trump’s administration has been making moves to turn the U.S. into a crypto hub, and that’s music to XRP’s ears.

Even though XRP didn’t make it into the proposed crypto reserve, the token’s price still saw a quite nice spike. Now, imagine what could happen if Trump gives XRP another nod of approval.

Of course, not everyone is drinking the Kool-Aid. Some analysts are predicting a dip to $1.30.

But hey, that’s what makes the crypto game so exciting, right? The uncertainty, the drama, the potential for a rocket ride to the moon.

7x

Now, let’s talk numbers. For XRP to hit $12.50, its market cap would need to balloon to nearly $700 billion.

That’s a tall order, considering it’s currently less than $105 billion. But hey, stranger things have happened in crypto.

And with technical indicators like the MACD suggesting a potential uptrend, maybe, just maybe, XRP has more tricks up its sleeve.

$XRP 's MACD is nearing a BREAKING POINT and also holding a key Regular Bullish Divergence with prices!

This divergence suggests that bulls can return with DOMINANCE and shift prices into continuing recent major uptrend back towards $3.30+.
