XRP News Today: Ripple's Efforts with Institutions Meet XRP Price Fluctuations Amid Growing ETF Anticipation
- Ripple accelerates institutional finance push via XRP ETF plans, strategic acquisitions, and product innovations like Ripple Prime's cross-margining platform. - The firm secures 75+ global licenses and partners with major banks, aligning with growing speculation about SEC approval for Grayscale's GXRP ETF by late 2025. - XRP's $2.27 price and $170B market cap contrast with Ripple's infrastructure growth, as traders weigh regulatory risks against potential ETF-driven institutional demand.
