XRP Surges Past $1.40 on Regulatory Optimism and ETF Inflows

XRP's price has surged past $1.40 due to anticipation around regulatory clarity in Washington and growing ETF investment.

The cryptocurrency is awaiting a crucial cloture vote on the CLARITY Act, which requires 60 votes to advance and would classify digital assets like XRP as commodities under federal law.

Ripple's CEO Brad Garlinghouse and SEC Chair Paul Atkins have expressed support for the bill, which aims to cement the US as a global crypto hub.
