Stripe to Launch USD Stablecoin for Global Markets Beyond US, UK, and Europe
Global payments giant Stripe is developing a U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin aimed at companies operating outside the United States, United Kingdom, and Europe. Stripe CEO Patrick Collison confirmed the initiative in a recent post on X , inviting businesses to participate in early testing of the product. The announcement follows Stripe’s regulatory approval to acquire Bridge, a stablecoin payments network designed to rival traditional banking systems and SWIFT-based transfers. Bridge was co-founded in 2022 by former Coinbase executives Zach Abrams and Sean Yu. Stripe Pioneered Crypto Payments in 2014 with Early Bitcoin Support Stripe’s involvement in crypto dates back to 2014 when it became the first major payments processor to support Bitcoin (BTC) transactions. However, due to network inefficiencies and high fees, the company halted Bitcoin support before reviving its crypto ambitions in 2021 by rebuilding its blockchain team. Since then, Stripe has accelerated its crypto push. In October 2024, the firm launched stablecoin payment options , which saw rapid adoption across 70 countries on its first day. Earlier that year, Stripe partnered with Coinbase to facilitate fiat-to-crypto conversions. Collison remarked that this latest stablecoin project is something Stripe has “wanted to build for around a decade.” We've wanted to build this product for around a decade, and it's now happening. https://t.co/zK9dADvGhG — Patrick Collison (@patrickc) April 25, 2025 Stablecoins, which are pegged to assets like fiat currencies, continue to gain traction globally as efficient tools for cross-border payments and financial stability. In the U.S., regulatory focus on USD-backed stablecoins has intensified, with Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell calling for clear legislation. Meanwhile, companies like PayPal have entered the space , launching their own stablecoins and offering yield incentives to holders. As of April 25, the total stablecoin market capitalization stands at $237.5 billion, according to DefiLlama, signaling robust demand for digital dollar solutions in global finance. Jack Dorsey Urges Signal to Adopt Bitcoin for P2P Payments Earlier this month, Jack Dorsey, former Twitter CEO and outspoken Bitcoin advocate, publicly urged Signal Messenger to integrate Bitcoin for peer-to-peer (P2P) payments. Dorsey’s call was echoed by David Marcus, former president of PayPal and current CEO of Lightspark, who stated that “all non-transactional apps should connect to Bitcoin.” The comments reflect a growing sentiment among Bitcoin advocates to reposition BTC not just as a store of value, but as a practical payment tool. Venture capital firms are increasingly backing projects focused on stablecoin services and financial infrastructure. The sector’s potential was further underscored by payments giant Stripe’s acquisition of stablecoin platform Bridge for $1.1 billion last year, signaling strong institutional interest in blockchain-based financial solutions. Aside from Stripe, other payment companies have also adopted stablecoins as a means of payment. More recently, Singapore-based payments company Triple-A announced plans to integrate PayPal’s stablecoin into its list of supported tokens for customer payments.

XRP News Roundup: 5 Blitz Factors for Ripple’s Price
XRP’s price posted a +6% green candle for the week on Friday, but other than BNB at +2% and TRX down -1%, it trailed the top 10 crypto assets by market cap. BTC posted +12% gains, ETH +12%, SOL +15%, DOGE +18%, ADA +17%, and SUI an eye-catching +74% candle. So Ripple’s token may be undervalued at a long-term outlook, and the value buy this weekend for long-term holding crypto investors shopping out of the most favored assets by online and commercial telecom markets. Here are five recent developments keeping market demand rolling for the massive cross-border payments company’s signature fleet of XRP tokens: 1. XRP Flips Ethereum in Diluted Market Cap HISTORIC: $XRP FLIPS $ETH After 6 straight months of outperforming #Ethereum , #XRP has officially become the second-largest asset by fully diluted market cap. The numbers? • XRP: $208.4B • ETH: $192.5B No hype. No dreams. Just onchain facts. pic.twitter.com/FcO5p4UCEF — John Squire (@TheCryptoSquire) April 18, 2025 XRP’s fully diluted market cap is nearly 1/8th of Bitcoin’s in April. That is a remarkable development and a key fundamental metric in the supply/demand economics at play in the daily market price of these currencies. Bitcoin’s market cap on Friday, Apr. 25, was $1.8 trillion. Ethereum’s was $215 billion, and XRP’s was a distant third at $128 billion. But, its fully diluted market cap is the market capitalization if all the currency’s tokens were in circulation. By that metric, XRP surpassed ETH for the first time in the final stretch of April. That’s important over the long term because XRP is supposed to become a scarce digital token with a supply cap of 100 billion coins. Meanwhile, Internet and institutional demand for the asset is high, and its use case is focused yet plentiful with expansion opportunities. 2. Paul Atkins Sworn In As New SEC Chair Meanwhile , after Ripple’s lengthy and costly lawsuit with the SEC, Paul Atkins assumed office as the new agency Chair on Apr. 21, which is especially important for XRP market prices . In the private sector, Atkins helped develop best practices for cryptocurrencies for a global strategy, hedge, and regulatory consultancy he founded. This has raised hopes of a final resolution to the lagging Dec. 2020 lawsuit against Ripple Labs. There are many vast institutional conglomerates that rely on the SEC to do business and won’t invest in something the agency is suing. Only time will tell how many of them are waiting on the government with their eye on Ripple prices. Patrick Bet-David of the “Valuetainment” YouTube podcast recently said that if the lawsuit is dropped, it will have a big impact on XRP prices going forward. 3. Coinbase Launches CFTC-Regulated XRP Futures Furthermore, the Nasdaq-listed US crypto exchange Coinbase just launched a CFTC-regulated XRP futures product in April. This could be a test for demand for XRP from cautious institutional investors and a potential leading indicator for new price support when things with the SEC are finally settled, pat and dry. But it may be a big hit with leverage traders who find crypto’s volatile markets, with their frequent big double-digit daily swings, not exciting enough without multiplying the risk-reward factor. Coinbase announced the new feature on X on Apr. 3 and rolled it out on Apr. 21. Coinbase Derivatives, LLC now offers CFTC-regulated futures for $XRP . https://t.co/omSNu0aEoC — Coinbase Institutional ️ (@CoinbaseInsto) April 21, 2025 4. Whales Are Buying The XRP Dip in April “Whales are taking over!” Brett Crypto X tweeted on Apr. 21 to some 90K followers. Whales are taking over! $XRP trading volume just exceeded 20 million in a single minute. You see this? This is real utility. pic.twitter.com/YofRSjdRGW — Brett (@Brett_Crypto_X) April 21, 2025 The last time Brett Crypto X warned about XRP was in the middle of a strong upward trend channel that lasted for months until the financial industry took a haircut, starting in February, over trade jitters. In one of the threads, a replier begged Crypto X to tell them what blockchain updates software gives them that Star Trek-looking market cap monitor. Crypto whales have an affinity for trading Ripple and are supporting XRP prices in April. Addresses between 10 million and 100 million XRP moved in April to make up about 1% more of the total share of circulating tokens. Whale support means greater scarcity and higher exchange prices for a token economy, but add to its risk of future volatility if whales sell. However, many whales on the blockchain are likely conscious of its economy and other peers and seem to follow Satoshi Nakamoto’s example by waiting months or even years to trade such substantial amounts. 5. Ripple Daily Active Addresses Surge $XRP network activity jumped 67.50%, with active addresses rising from 27,352 to 40,366! pic.twitter.com/fDiERMIYiz — Ali (@ali_charts) April 21, 2025 Ripple also saw its daily active addresses surge 67% from 27K to 40K over ten days in mid-April. That’s a more fundamental analysis of the tension against the market valuation of the most recent crypto rally. Meanwhile, the XRP price chart exhibited an inverse head and shoulders pattern, usually a bullish formation indicating the beginning of a rally in the asset’s price. The combination of fundamental/market decoupling and bullish technical indicators signals that XRP prices in the last week of April may be hiding bigger green candles.

Analyst Says This Top-10 Altcoin Is Flashing Clear Signs It Will Outperform Ethereum When the Bull Run Resumes
A popular crypto trader believes one top-10 altcoin will likely outperform Ethereum ( ETH ) once the crypto market takes off on a bull run again. Pseudonymous analyst Inmortal Crypto tells his 232,000 followers on the social media platform X that Solana ( SOL ) is already outperforming ETH in the latest market bounce this month, signaling the trend will likely continue. “SOL outperforming ETH in this bounce. Obvious clues as to which out-performer will be when the bull run resumes.” Source: Inmortal Crypto/X Looking at his four-hour charts comparing the performance of SOL to ETH during the month of April, the analyst shows SOL surged from its April low to high by about 65%, while ETH surged this month from its low to high by about 33%. Next up, the analyst suggests that SOL will soon soar to around $330 after retesting a key support level at around $100. “In retrospect, it will seem so obvious.” Source: Inmortal Crypto/X The analyst also says that ETH is on the verge of a breakout after retesting the $1,500 level, likely repeating a similar late 2024 pattern. “ETH: In a few months, many will look back to this chart with regret.” Source: Inmortal Crypto/X Solana is trading for $151 at time of writing, down nearly 1% in the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, ETH is trading for $1,791 at time of writing, up 1% on the day.

Joseph Stiglitz Warns: Trump’s Crypto Policies Could Turn U.S. Into “Biggest Tax Haven in History”
The post Joseph Stiglitz Warns: Trump’s Crypto Policies Could Turn U.S. Into “Biggest Tax Haven in History” appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph E. Stiglitz has issued a sharp warning: Donald Trump’s policies are pushing the United States toward becoming the world’s largest tax haven . And for the crypto community, the consequences could be enormous. Trump’s Crypto Moves Raise Alarm Bells Stiglitz argues that Trump’s administration weakened financial transparency by halting the collection of company ownership data, withdrawing from global tax cooperation, easing crypto regulations , and scaling back anti-money-laundering enforcement. In particular, Trump’s executive order to create a strategic cryptocurrency reserve and the appointment of a crypto advocate to lead the SEC have raised major red flags. According to Stiglitz, these actions make the U.S. an attractive destination for hidden crypto transactions. Crypto Secrecy: A Brewing Storm? Stiglitz warns that the rise of underregulated crypto exchanges, online casinos, and anonymous platforms under Trump could fuel the global illicit economy , making money laundering and tax evasion easier than ever. While crypto investors might see fewer regulations as an opportunity, Stiglitz stresses that unchecked crypto activity could seriously threaten long-term financial stability. A Bigger Financial Shift Underway Trump’s crypto policies are just part of a larger effort to dismantle financial safeguards, Stiglitz says. Cutting IRS staffing, reducing tax enforcement, and offering major corporate tax breaks could slash U.S. tax revenue by $2.4 trillion over the next decade. Meanwhile, tariffs on imports have burdened ordinary Americans while benefiting a wealthy few, further widening the wealth gap — and crypto assets, Stiglitz warns, are increasingly becoming a tool for tax avoidance. .article-inside-link { margin-left: 0 !important; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; border-left: 0; border-right: 0; padding: 10px 0; text-align: left; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li { font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; font-weight: 600; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0; display: inline-block; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li:last-child { display: none; } Also Read : $TRUMP Coin Dinner: Private Dinner Announcement with Trump Sparks 70% Surge , The World Moves Ahead Without the U.S. As the U.S. loosens its grip, over 50 countries are advancing a 15% global minimum corporate tax to promote fairness and accountability. Stiglitz suggests that America’s retreat could ironically strengthen global efforts for fairer taxation. Bottom Line Joseph Stiglitz’s message is clear: Trump’s crypto deregulation could transform the U.S. into a magnet for offshore wealth , but at the cost of financial stability and global trust. For crypto investors, the short-term gain of less regulation could come with long-term risks that are impossible to ignore. .article_register_shortcode { padding: 18px 24px; border-radius: 8px; display: flex; align-items: center; margin: 6px 0 22px; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 0%, rgba(0, 82, 204, 0.1) 100%); } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { color: #000000; font-weight: 600; font-size: 20px; line-height: 22px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 span { color: #0052CC; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; color: #171717B2; margin-top: 4px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body{ padding-right: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: right; } .article_register_shortcode .primary-button img{ vertical-align: middle; width: 20px; margin: 0; display: inline-block; } @media (min-width: 581px) and (max-width: 991px) { .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { margin-bottom: 0; } } @media (max-width: 580px) { .article_register_shortcode { display: block; padding: 20px; } .article_register_shortcode img { max-width: 50px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { font-size: 16px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body { margin-left: 0px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: unset; } .article_register_shortcode .secondary-button { margin-bottom: 0; } } Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!

Chainlink is working on a new framework for integration, but it has been delayed several times, often by three to six months. The delays were due to Chainlink’s outdated codebase and complex updates, while noting other oracle options like Pyth Network and Flare. .article_register_shortcode { padding: 18px 24px; border-radius: 8px; display: flex; align-items: center; margin: 6px 0 22px; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 0%, rgba(0, 82, 204, 0.1) 100%); } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { color: #000000; font-weight: 600; font-size: 20px; line-height: 22px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 span { color: #0052CC; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; color: #171717B2; margin-top: 4px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body{ padding-right: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: right; } .article_register_shortcode .primary-button img{ vertical-align: middle; width: 20px; margin: 0; display: inline-block; } @media (min-width: 581px) and (max-width: 991px) { .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { margin-bottom: 0; } } @media (max-width: 580px) { .article_register_shortcode { display: block; padding: 20px; } .article_register_shortcode img { max-width: 50px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { font-size: 16px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body { margin-left: 0px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: unset; } .article_register_shortcode .secondary-button { margin-bottom: 0; } } Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!

Firms Are Adding Solana to Corporate Treasuries, But Bitcoin Still Leads the Way
Adding crypto to corporate treasuries is a clear and growing trend. And it’s not just Bitcoin. Solana’s SOL is also entering the mix as companies build treasuries they can stake and as a gateway to the broader Solana ecosystem. “The recent increase in corporations allocating Bitcoin, and now Solana, to their treasuries, reflects a shift in how companies manage risk and seek growth,” said Todd Ruoff, CEO of Autonomys Labs, in comments to The Defiant “Bitcoin has been favored for its value proposition as ‘digital gold,’ acting as a hedge against currency devaluation.” To continue reading this as well as other DeFi and Web3 news, visit us at thedefiant.io

Pundit Says XRP Is Getting Ready for the Next Big Move
XRP is on the verge of a significant price shift, according to crypto analyst Edo Farina. In a recent post on X, Farina stated that “XRP is getting ready for the next BIG movement,” igniting renewed excitement across the XRP community. His prediction comes as technical indicators, regulatory developments, and growing adoption converge to create what could be the perfect setup for a major breakout. $XRP getting ready for the next BIG movement — EDO FARINA 🅧 XRP (@edward_farina) April 25, 2025 Technical Analysis Points to Imminent Breakout Over the past several weeks, XRP has been consolidating within a tight range, a classic technical setup that often precedes explosive price action. Analysts observing the charts have noted that XRP continues to hold key support levels while pressuring critical resistance zones. Momentum indicators such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) also signal that volatility is compressing — a condition that historically has led to large moves. Farina’s commentary reinforces these observations, suggesting that the next decisive shift for XRP could happen sooner rather than later. Regulatory Clarity Strengthens the Bullish Case Beyond the technicals, XRP’s position within the regulatory landscape has dramatically improved . Following a series of legal victories, including the pivotal ruling that declared XRP is not a security, the asset enjoys a level of regulatory certainty that few other cryptocurrencies can claim. This newfound clarity has made XRP increasingly attractive to institutional investors and financial service providers. Farina’s insight underscores a broader sentiment in the market: with regulatory risk largely mitigated, XRP is well-positioned to capitalize on incoming market opportunities. Real-World Adoption on the Rise XRP’s fundamental utility is also expanding. RippleNet, which leverages XRP for real-time settlement, has grown into a global network connecting more than 300 financial institutions. At the same time, innovations on the XRP Ledger — including Automated Market Makers (AMMs) and decentralized finance (DeFi) integrations — are boosting XRP’s use cases beyond simple payments. We are on twitter, follow us to connect with us :- @TimesTabloid1 — TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) July 15, 2023 There are also strong indications that XRP is being considered for future adoption by governmental and corporate sectors, further enhancing its real-world value proposition. These developments suggest that XRP’s next price move could be fueled not just by speculation, but by tangible, growing demand. Sentiment Shifts as XRP Gathers Momentum Market sentiment toward XRP has been improving steadily. Engagement metrics on social platforms, especially X, show a significant uptick in XRP-related discussions and content. Influencers, traders, and analysts — Farina included — are increasingly highlighting XRP’s potential for an imminent surge. Historically, XRP has demonstrated the ability to rally sharply once momentum shifts in its favor. Given the current blend of technical compression, positive regulatory news, and strengthening fundamentals, many believe the stage is set for XRP to deliver its next major move. As always, while optimism runs high, market participants are advised to stay informed and manage risk appropriately. However, if current conditions hold, Edo Farina’s prediction of an imminent big movement for XRP might soon become a reality.

Investors are calling attention to its clear communication, rising wallet count, and consistent updates that demonstrate it’s more than just another token launch. It’s beginning to take shape as an ecosystem. What’s making this project special is its timing—positioned in a window when the market is hungry for fresh opportunities but cautious about where to place trust. MAGACOINFINANCE seems to be landing right in that sweet spot.

Chainlink is foundational. From pricing data to real-world APIs, its oracle solutions are embedded across nearly every major protocol. Its continued expansion is a testament to its core role in blockchain reliability. These are proven platforms—but their explosive phases may be behind them. MAGACOINFINANCE , by contrast, is only just beginning. Final Thoughts Speculation isn’t about randomness—it’s about recognizing structure before the crowd does. MAGACOINFINANCE.COM is showing signs that it’s not just another token. It’s building the narrative, infrastructure, and early loyalty that define the next breakout. This could be the moment.

Why MUTM Is a Stronger Play Than ADA in 2025 — With a Smaller Market Cap and Real DeFi Utility
As the crypto market continues to mature, investors are becoming more selective—looking past the hype and focusing on functionality, token economics, and growth runway. In this context, some well-established cryptocurrencies are being reassessed, while newer, undervalued projects are catching up fast. One such comparison that’s increasingly being made is between Cardano (ADA), a blockchain veteran, and Mutuum Finance (MUTM), a rising DeFi contender still priced under $0.03. Cardano (ADA) ADA has been widely acknowledged as a prominent player within the blockchain ecosystem. With a focus on research-driven development and academic rigor, it’s earned a loyal community and a solid infrastructure. Its ecosystem has steadily evolved, introducing features like smart contracts, governance modules, and partnerships aimed at improving digital identity and financial systems—especially in emerging markets. But while ADA continues to build, its price momentum hasn’t mirrored that progress recently. Its large market cap means that while it’s still a reliable asset, the potential for exponential returns in the short term becomes more limited. Many investors who held through previous market cycles are now looking at alternatives that combine strong fundamentals with higher upside potential. Mutuum Finance (MUTM) Mutuum Finance has emerged as one of the most discussed small-cap cryptocurrencies in 2025—and it’s not without reason. It’s not just a token; it’s a developing DeFi ecosystem that’s being built with utility, real-world application, and long-term sustainability in mind. The protocol enables users to lend, borrow, and earn—all without giving up control of their assets. Participants receive mtTokens when depositing crypto into the system, which continuously accrue value based on yield generated by the platform. One key advantage of Mutuum is its dual lending system. Users can operate through pooled contracts or negotiate terms directly with other users. This structure opens up flexibility for different types of assets and strategies, appealing to both cautious and high-risk investors. For instance, more volatile tokens—like Dogecoin (DOGE) or Shiba Inu (SHIB)—can be handled in direct lending agreements without interfering with the core liquidity pools. What truly distinguishes Mutuum is its focus on long-term sustainability. Rather than flooding the market with new tokens, a portion of platform earnings is allocated to buy MUTM tokens from the market. These are then redistributed to mtToken stakers who are actively participating in the ecosystem. This approach ensures that incentives are properly aligned while reinforcing the token’s long-term potential. Mutuum is still in its presale phase, with the current token price set at $0.025. Already, the presale has brought in more than $7 million and attracted nearly 9,000 wallets. With each phase of the presale, the price edges up—next stop: $0.03. There are 11 total phases, meaning early buyers are locking in significant upside potential. Analysts watching the project closely believe that once the token hits exchanges, the price will climb quickly up to 1900% above the presale entry. That forecast is driven by several factors. First, the team is planning to roll out a beta version of the platform around the time of launch, giving immediate access to core features. Second, the protocol’s built-in stablecoin and yield strategies give it functional use from day one. Third, the project is expected to appear on several major crypto exchanges shortly after launch—adding serious fuel to its growth curve. When comparing MUTM to ADA in the context of growth potential, the argument becomes clear. ADA is mature, proven, and still valuable—but it’s unlikely to deliver outsized returns from its current price level. MUTM, on the other hand, is still early. With real DeFi infrastructure being rolled out, a well-thought-out economic model, and a quickly expanding user base, it checks the boxes for both near-term momentum and long-term strategy. For investors seeking the best cryptocurrency to invest in—not just based on name recognition but on actual utility and future upside—Mutuum Finance presents one of the most promising plays heading into the second half of 2025.

XRP Price at $2.19 With 9% Bi-Weekly Gain: Is XRP Preparing for a Breakout as Regulatory Picture Clears?
Ripple’s XRP coin has gained 9% over the past two weeks, trading around $2.19 as of Saturday, supported by rising institutional interest. The major catalyst fueling this momentum is CME Group’s upcoming launch of XRP futures on May 19. These cash-settled contracts—sized at 2,500 and 50,000 XRP—will settle against the CME CF XRP-Dollar Reference Rate. Starting May 19, trade regulated, capital-efficient futures on XRP, available in larger- and micro-sized contracts, so you can scale your exposure with greater precision and flexibility. More on XRP futures https://t.co/SzDtBmkG7r pic.twitter.com/BDJRzYSvTd — CME Group (@CMEGroup) April 24, 2025 According to Giovanni Vicioso, Global Head of Crypto Products at CME Group, growing demand from institutional players prompted this addition. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse hailed the move as a “milestone” for Ripple’s adoption. Analysts forecast that the futures launch could bring new liquidity and price stability, positioning Ripple alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum within regulated markets. Key Highlights: CME XRP futures launch scheduled for May 19. Two contract sizes: 2,500 XRP and 50,000 XRP. Analysts project price targets toward $6.50 if momentum holds. Brazil’s XRP ETF Boosts Global Exposure In another bullish development, Brazil’s B3 exchange debuted XRPH11—the world’s first Ripple-focused ETF. Managed by Hashdex, the fund allocates 95% of its assets directly or indirectly into XRP, tracking the Nasdaq XRP Reference Price Index. The world's first Spot XRP ETF going live in Brazil is a pretty freaking big deal #XRP pic.twitter.com/SxGnpXQ2jy — Jonathan (@jonathan_wcm) April 26, 2025 While U.S.-based XRP ETF applications remain stalled amid regulatory hurdles, Brazil’s launch marks a breakthrough moment. It offers investors outside the United States regulated access to Ripple, reinforcing Ripple’s global strategy. Key Highlights: Brazil launches XRPH11, tracking Nasdaq XRP Index. 95% of assets allocated to XRP. Expands XRP’s institutional footprint beyond the U.S. XRP Technical Setup: Breakout Eyes $2.30 and Beyond Technically, XRP is consolidating around $2.19–$2.21, respecting an ascending trendline that has underpinned its rally since mid-April. The 50 EMA at $2.18 continues to act as dynamic support, with buyers stepping in to defend pullbacks. The immediate challenge lies at $2.30—historically a major resistance zone. A confirmed breakout above this level could open the door to $2.36 and $2.42 in the short term. The MACD indicator is stabilizing, signaling consolidation rather than weakness, and setting the stage for a potential breakout. Trade Setup: Buy breakout: Above $2.30 Targets: $2.36 and $2.42 Stop-loss: Below $2.17 For beginners, the strategy is straightforward: avoid buying inside the range and wait for either a clean breakout above $2.30 or a bounce from the ascending trendline. Bottom Line With a 9% bi-weekly gain, rising institutional support, and clearer regulatory frameworks emerging, XRP appears well-positioned for a potential breakout. Watch the $2.30 level closely—confirmation there could ignite the next leg higher. Solana’s First L2? Solaxy Hits $31.77M as Presale Nears Milestone While Bitcoin continues to dominate institutional headlines, innovation in the Solana ecosystem is quietly heating up—with one Layer-2 project leading the charge. Solaxy (SOLX) is tackling Solana’s congestion problem by processing transactions off-chain and submitting them back to the mainnet.
