Investment bank Standard Chartered has suggested that XRP could reach $12.50 before President Trump completes his term. The latest report states that:

• XRP is projected to reach $5.50 by the end of this year, $8 by 2026, and $10.40 by season’s end in 2027.
• Current trading levels show XRP up over 7% at $1.93.

The report emphasizes that XRP is strategically crucial for cross-border transactions.

“XRP is uniquely positioned at the heart of one of the fastest-growing use cases for digital assets - facilitating cross-border and cross-currency payments.”

Translation: “XRP is uniquely positioned at the core of a rapidly expanding application of digital assets - supporting international and inter-currency transactions.”

Additionally, Standard Chartered forecasts a substantial increase in stablecoin transactions, aligning with XRP’s capabilities. Ripple’s ongoing push into tokenization and its decentralized public blockchain, XRPL, further supports these expectations.
