XRP Price Up Despite Wider Whale-Retail Spread and Dropped Odds on CLARITY Act
Ripple's XRP price has risen by 3.77% on September 9 to trade at $1.43, despite a Senate vote scheduled for September 15 that could impact the CLARITY Act bill.
The odds of the bill passing in 2026 have dropped to 15%, according to CoinGape prediction markets, with Senate Republicans warning that it will likely fail if the White House does not approve the ethics text.
Data from CryptoQuant shows XRP's whale-retail spread has widened to 45.8%, suggesting whales are making more transactions than retail traders.
