The post XRP Price Prediction 2025—What if it Fails to Break the $2.5 Resistance? Will it Fall Below $2 in July? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
The XRP price faced a strong push during the weekend, propelling the price above the consolidation. The token formed a lower low, then rebounded and was expected to break through the resistance threshold, which was preventing a strong bullish move. This move comes when the Ripple CTO claimed that Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin founder, had stacked a huge number of XRP.
In the times when the likelihood of an XRP bull run persists and insane targets of more than $10 or $100 or more are being set, the question arises whether it can make it back to $3.
XRP Price Stuck Within an Equilibrium
The XRP price has not displayed any major price action since the start of 2025; rather, it has remained consolidated below $2.8. Although the token bounced off the $2.2 support zone, it is showing fewer signs of a breakout above $2.3, which could result in an extended consolidation within the pattern. On the other hand, the token has failed to attract the volume that it possessed during the November 2024 breakout. Hence, the XRP price is feared to maintain a slow & steady consolidation for some more time.
The XRP price is finding strong support at the 50-day MA at $2.22, while a resistance is at the 200-day MA at $2.36. Whenever the 200-day MA acts as a resistance to achieve, the crypto is believed to remain under bullish influence, which is substantiated by the rising RSI. Interestingly, the daily RSI has never been to the overbought or oversold zone, suggesting less participation of both the bulls and the bears. However, both are preventing the price from either rising above the resistance or plunging below the local support.
What’s Next? Will the XRP Price Reach $5 in 2025?
In the broader perspective, the token continues to remain within a massive bullish pattern and still has more room to consolidate as the apex is not nearby. Even if the price failed to rise above the resistance or face a pullback, the bulls could help the token to reach the apex of the decisive symmetrical triangle, with $2 being a strong base. Once the token reaches these levels, a breakout could be imminent, and below are the factors that could influence the XRP price rally to a new ATH.
A Favorable Outcome in the Ripple vs. SEC Lawsuit: A decisive court ruling for Ripple Labs could eliminate regulatory uncertainty and allow US-based exchanges to relist the token.
Increased Institutional Adoption: RippleNet, with its On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) services, is being adopted by financial institutions for worldwide cross-border payments and hence offering a real-world utility and demand for XRP.
XRP Ledger (XRPL) Developments: New technical upgrades such as hooks( smart contracts), sidechains, or the automated market maker (AMM) integration could make XRPL more competitive and attract developers and liquidity.
Ripple’s Global Expansion: Ripple’s aggressive expansion into Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and Latin America gives XRP broader exposure to high-growth payment corridors.
Overall Crypto Market Rally: In a broader bull market driven by macro trends or ETF approvals, XRP could benefit from rising investor sentiment
Considering the market conditions and the probable events occurring in the second half of 2025, it is very tough for the XRP price to reach $5, but the token may rise above $3.5 and try hard to reach $4, marking a new ATH.

XRP is a digital asset that's native to the XRP Ledger — an open-source, permisionless and decentralized blockchain technology.
Legacy payment transfer solutions, such as SWIFT, take several business days to settle international fund transfers and charge high fees because it involves multiple banking partners. Ripple uses the XRP Ledger, an open-source blockchain network, to streamline global payment infrastructure and settle all XRP transactions, allowing businesses to send and receive cross-border payments in three to five seconds. XRP transactions are not only much faster than SWIFT or decentralized payment networks like Bitcoin, but they are much cheaper. To be more specific, XRP’s transaction fees cost only $0.0002.
Companies and financial institutions can use XRP to send real-time cross-border payments, source crypto liquidity from global crypto markets, and create their own central bank digital currency (CBDC).
While payment was the foundation of Ripple's operations in its early years, the protocol has gradually rebranded into a more robust ecosystem in recent years, owing to the explosion of decentralized applications. Today, Ripple provides an environment in which DeFi and NFT applications can thrive, in addition to enabling lightning-fast and cheap payments.
XRP is the native token used to facilitate transactions on the Ripple network.
How does Ripple work
There are three core components of the Ripple network:
RippleNet: RippleNet is a network of financial institutions, including global banks, that helps users send and receive payments on Ripple. Just as HTTPS provides a common protocol to send information across the web, RippleNet allows value transfer using a uniform set of rules called Ripple Transaction Protocol (RTXP).
Ripple: Ripple is the core platform powered by XRP Ledger (XRPL) and provides three features, namely the real-time gross settlement system (RTGS), currency exchange, and remittance transfers.
Gateways: Gateways are banks that act as trusted intermediaries between two transacting parties. These gateways are responsible for transferring funds in fiat and cryptocurrencies using the Ripple network.
What is the XRP Ledger
Blockchains like Bitcoin or Ethereum are decentralized and rely on trustless consensus mechanisms where users do not need to trust each other to send value. On the contrary, Ripple relies on a trust-based consensus mechanism using the XRP Ledger consensus protocol, where transactions are verified by trusted validators.
The XRP Ledger comprises servers that collect transactions from client applications, such as financial institutions, and processes them. Participants using the Ripple network choose a set of servers that participate in a consensus mechanism from a Unique Node List (UNL) maintained by Ripple. These servers are trusted to behave honestly to validate transactions. As long as 80 percent of servers on the UNL agree on a set of transactions, the transactions are verified. If a majority consensus is not achieved, the validators modify their proposals over several rounds until the UNL servers consider the transitions valid.
The XRP Ledger servers are operated by companies and financial institutions. Ripple, XRP Ledger Foundation, and Coil (a Ripple-funded platform) release lists of recommended validators based on metrics like past performance, verified identity, and IT policies.
XRP price and tokenomics
Ripple minted a hard-capped supply of 100 billion XRP at launch. Of these 100 billion XRP tokens, 20 percent were given to Ripple founders Chris Larsen and Jed McCaleb, 77.8 percent of XRP tokens were allocated to Ripple, and 0.2 percent were airdropped to users.
In 2017, Ripple sent 55 billion XRP tokens from its allocated supply to an escrow account. It was decided that the company would release a maximum of 1 billion XRP tokens per month to support Ripple's operations. The unused funds are sent back to the escrow account by the end of each month. Messari suggests that nearly 300 million XRP from the escrow account enter circulation each month. Ripple reportedly holds 40.7 billion XRP tokens in escrow as of February 2024. Despite the large volume of tokens being moved at regular intervals, the monthly release hasn't caused instability for XRP prices.
All XRP tokens were pre-mined by Ripple at launch. As a result, you cannot mine new XRP tokens. To ease inflation, Ripple has implemented a deflationary mechanism for XRP wherein all the fees collected on the network are burned.
XRP tokens enter circulation when the tokens are sold in the open market. Ripple cannot sell more than 0.25 percent of the average daily volume of crypto exchanges from their reserves during programmatic sales. XRP sales also come from direct selling by institutions partnering with Ripple.
The XRP price reached its all-time high of $3.84 on January 4, 2018. The token has a maximum supply of 100,000,000,000 XRP, and a circulating supply of 55.9 billion as of August 2024.
About the founders
Ryan Fugger founded a decentralized platform for creating and managing credit lines called RipplePay in 2004, which would later become Ripple. In 2011, Jed McCaleb, with a team of developers, started working on a new consensus mechanism for digital currencies, which was later called XRP Ledger. McCaleb was joined by Chris Larsen, David Schwartz, and Arthur Britto.
A year after, Jed McCaleb and Chris Larsen reached out to Ryan Fugger to acquire RipplePay, and Ryan decided to hand over the project to them. After integrating RipplePay, Larsen, and McCaleb launched Opencoin (now Ripple Labs) in September 2012.
Ripple Labs released the XRP cryptocurrency in 2012 and raised over $7.5 million in a Series A funding round led by Andreessen Horowitz in 2013 to fund the development of the Ripple project. Since then, be it implementing stricter anti-money laundering policies or obtaining a BitLicense from the State of New York, Ripple has focused on gaining the trust of financial institutions to join their network and process payments.
Brad Garlinghouse, who joined as Ripple's first Chief Operating Officer in 2015, was appointed the company's Chief Executive Officer at the start of 2017, replacing Larsen. Garlinghouse continues to hold the position of Ripple CEO today.
Ripple highlights
Ripple is popular among businesses due to the numerous business opportunities it offers. Santander adopted Ripple's technology for the launch of One Pay FX in 2016. The service aimed to provide faster and more cost-effective cross-border payments to clients. In the same year, Ripple launched a pilot program with Standard Chartered to bring its fast cross-border payment services to the lender's customers.
After adding XRP support in 2018, Wirex, a digital payments platform that supports transactions in cryptocurrency, received 12 million in XRP deposits. Additionally, Ripple gained visibility and credibility in the cryptocurrency industry in 2019. The Swiss SIX exchange launched an XRP ETP (exchange-traded product) in April, making it easier for traders to gain exposure to XRP. Nasdaq also added XRP to its cryptocurrency indexes, which helped to increase awareness and adoption of the cryptocurrency. Furthermore, Boerse Stuttgart, the second-largest stock exchange in Germany, launched XRP exchange-traded notes. Ripple announced at the end of 2019 that it had raised $200 million from Tetragon, SBI Holdings, and Route 66 Ventures.
In April 2024, Ripple announced plans to launch a U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin that would compete with current leading stablecoins USDT and USDC, from Tether and Circle, respectively. Ripple has said the stablecoin will be backed 1-to-1 by equivalent assets including cash, U.S. dollar deposits, and government bonds. The stablecoin will initially be launched in the U.S.
Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
Ripple previously faced legal challenges from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The SEC alleged that XRP is a security subject to federal securities laws, while Ripple argued that XRP is a currency and, therefore, not subject to the same regulations.
A significant legal milestone was achieved in the cryptocurrency industry during July 2023 as U.S. District Judge Analisa Torres ruled that Ripple Labs Inc did not violate federal securities law by selling its XRP token on public exchanges. This ruling marks the first victory for a cryptocurrency company in a case brought against the SEC.
This outcome could have far-reaching implications for the broader cryptocurrency market, as it sheds light on the regulatory landscape surrounding digital assets and token sales.

Created in 2012 specifically for payments, XRP can settle transactions on the ledger in three to five seconds. It was built to be a better Bitcoin — faster, cheaper, and greener than any other digital asset.
What is the XRP Ledger (XRPL)?
XRPL, like most blockchains, employs a consensus algorithm to keep the network decentralized. XRPL employs the Federated Consensus algorithm, which is more environmentally friendly, faster, and less expensive than Bitcoin's Proof of Work mechanism.
Because there are no predefined selection processes involving mining and staking, anyone can become a validator, which is one of the peculiarities of XRPL's consensus mechanism. Even though the XRPL validator community is open to all, XRPL maintains a list of trusted validators known as the Unique Node List (UNL). XRPL is in charge of some of the validator nodes on the UNL.
