Institutional Support Fuels XRP Growth Despite Bearish Market Action
XRP's price has been struggling, down more than 20% from its 200-day moving average and just 5.16% above its 52-week low of $1.01.
However, beneath this bearish market action lies a strong institutional foundation, with the XRP Ledger seeing significant growth in tokenized real-world assets, reaching $4.34 billion, a 59-fold increase since January 2025.
Ripple President Monica Long called it a 'light-switch moment' as banks move pilot projects on the ledger into production, and the company has been investing in infrastructure to support this expansion.
Despite regulatory hurdles in Washington, the European Economic Area has granted Ripple's Luxembourg subsidiary full MiCA-compliant status, enabling regulated crypto payment services across all 30 states.
