- Ripple’s XRP is showing one of its strongest rallies in years, with prices up 7.2% in a day and 415.1% since July 2024.
- XRP is now just 7.5% below its all-time high of $3.40, last seen in January 2018.
- The settlement of the lawsuit between the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Ripple in March 2025 is a key reason for the surge.
- The broader cryptocurrency market rebound after Bitcoin hit a new all-time high has contributed to XRP’s upward movement.
- Approval of a spot XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) could further boost institutional investment in the asset.
Ripple’s XRP token has recorded a major price rally, climbing sharply in recent days and weeks. XRP rose 7.2% in one day, gained 29.9% over the past week, rose 38.2% in the last 14 days, and grew 40.7% in the previous month, according to CoinGecko. The price is now only 7.5% below its historic high of $3.40, last reached in January 2018.
Since July 2024, XRP’s value has soared by 415.1%, making it currently the third-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. Earlier in 2025, XRP crossed the $3 mark for the first time in seven years. The recent gains come after signs that the longstanding SEC vs. Ripple lawsuit was nearing a resolution, which later settled in March 2025.
XRP’s performance follows a wider uptrend in the cryptocurrency sector. Bitcoin (BTC) set a new record price of $122,834 on July 14, according to reports, leading to a rise in investor optimism across digital assets. “BTC’s rally may have led investors to take a bullish stance,” the article notes.
Analysts highlight that XRP could face resistance around $3.20. If it moves above this level, there may be momentum toward surpassing $3.40. If XRP falls below $3.05, it may enter a period of price correction or consolidation.
In addition to the lawsuit outcome, other recent developments may impact XRP’s price. Multiple spot ETF applications for XRP are pending with the SEC. A spot ETF—an investment product that tracks the value of an underlying asset directly—could raise institutional interest and bring new capital into the cryptocurrency.
XRP’s upward trend is part of renewed market attention on digital currencies after several years. The latest developments and legal clarity have played a central role in the asset’s performance throughout 2025.
