XRP Price Surges Ahead of CLARITY Act Vote, But Passage Uncertain

XRP's price has surged to $1.39, up 2% on the day, as investors await the Senate cloture vote on the CLARITY Act scheduled for Tuesday.

The vote is a procedural step that would allow the bill to move forward, but it does not guarantee passage of the legislation.

Despite this, XRP's price has been driven by regulatory catalysts in recent weeks, with the token trading near its recent range after dipping towards $1.33 over the weekend.

The CLARITY Act would establish a defined legal structure for digital assets, but its prospects are uncertain, with a prediction market pricing the odds of it becoming law at just below 20%.

There are three possible scenarios for XRP: a bull case where successful cloture triggers a relief rally towards $1.42-$1.48, a base case where the vote fails or drags, and a bear case where a clean failure sends price back towards $1.31 support.
