XRP Stalls as AlphaPepe's Presale Takes Center Stage

XRP is drawing attention from traders who debate whether it can stage another big move toward higher targets. AlphaPepe, a project that combines meme culture with an AI-native DEX, has entered the conversation with its presale setup.

AlphaPepe's Stage 20 is live at $0.03050, and over 11,900 holders are inside before the presale closes and AlphaSwap DEX launches in Q1 2027. The bonus drop runs until September 25 and lets buyers receive up to 200% extra $ALPE on qualifying purchases.

XRP needs massive inflows for another leg higher, with a $30B+ market cap requiring billions in fresh inflows to push price into new breakout territory. Institutional adoption, regulatory clarity, and broader risk appetite must improve for XRP to make another big move soon.
