XRP price has rebounded from a crucial multi-month support level. The top-tier altcoin has rebounded from its multi-month support level of around $2.2 after Tuesday’s crypto capitulation.
XRP Price Bottoms Out; Bullish Thesis
Since the October 11, 2025 crypto-crash, which wiped out $20 billion from leveraged traders, the XRP price has retested its support level around $2.2 three times. However, the XRP price has been rejected at its resistance level of around $2.6, largely due to the broader crypto-long squeeze.
In the daily timeframe, the XRP/USD pair has been forming a potential reversal pattern. Since October 11, the XRP/USD pair has formed lower lows, but its Relative Strength Index (RSI) has formed rising divergence, signaling potential market reversal soon.
Institutional Investors Build on XRP
Ripple builds infrastructure for XRP mainstream adoption
With the lawsuit filed by the U.S. SEC having been closed and put to bed, Ripple has shifted its focus to building infrastructure for building on XRP. Furthermore, institutional investors have been diversifying their crypto portfolios away from Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) following the regulatory clarity in the United States.
Year-to-date, Ripple has acquired strategic companies, some unicorns, to help institutional investors build on XRP. For instance, Ripple Labs acquired Hidden Road for $1.25 billion and transformed it into Ripple Prime. Other notable acquisitions from Ripple YTD include GTreasury, and Rail.
During the Swell 2025 event, Ripple announced a strategic partnership with Mastercard, WebBank, and Gemini to use RLUSD on the XRP Ledger to settle fiat credit card transactions on-chain. Ripple also announced a $500 million strategic investment at a $40 billion valuation, led by Fortress Investment Group and Citadel Securities
Spot XRP ETFs and DAT Bets on XRP Ahead of Fed’s QE
Institutional investors have also been building on XRP through spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) companies led by Evernorth. Amid the U.S. government shutdown, the listing of spot XRP ETF is likely to happen under the generic listing standards.
The rising demand for XRP by institutional investors will be accelerated by the highly anticipated Fed’s Quantitative Easing (QE).
