XRP Price Outlook: Regulatory Crossroads and Whale Influence

XRP’s price trajectory faces a critical juncture as regulatory decisions and whale activity converge with the ongoing developments of the XRP Ledger (XRPL). The SEC’s October 2025 deadlines to rule on spot XRP ETFs from companies like Grayscale, 21Shares, and others will shape its market direction. A favorable decision could fuel institutional investment inflows worth billions, echoing Bitcoin’s 2023 surge after ETF approval, but a delay or rejection might trigger short-term selling pressure. Meanwhile, the XRPL’s continued upgrades and Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin integration provide ongoing stability.
