XRP Price Eyes $3.50 as AlphaPepe Soars to Over $2 Million Raised

The price of XRP is back in focus near $1.45 as institutional demand strengthens the bullish case. A move to $3.50 would require XRP to more than double, but this target is being discussed after August's rebound and resilient ETF inflows.

AlphaPepe (ALPE), on the other hand, starts at a much lower price of $0.02902, with over $2.59 million raised in its presale and more than 11,500 holders. Stage 20 is nearing a sellout.

The listing price for ALPE will be $0.08 when it launches on its DEX in Q1 2027. However, ALPE has already gained traction with the live AlphaSwap early access, which provides AI-powered token intelligence and a utility angle tied to DEX activity.
