Ripple's Institutional Growth Fails to Create Direct Demand for XRP
XRP's price forecast remains divided due to its lack of direct demand creation from Ripple's products and institutional access.
The token has everything an institutional crypto narrative appears to need: regulated ETFs, RLUSD stablecoin, European authorization, payment infrastructure, and tokenization tools.
Ripple's growth does not always create proportional XRP demand, as institutions may use Ripple products without holding large XRP positions, and stablecoins can settle transactions through separate liquidity structures.
