Ripple IPO Rumors Heat Up—Will XRP Surge Past $3?

Published by

2025 has been a rollercoaster year for XRP. The crypto has delivered a modest 3.63% gain so far this year, with a 0.45% rise in the previous quarter and a 3.18% uptick this quarter. But analysts say the real action may be just around the corner.

Ripple IPO Could Trigger XRP Rally

According to John, founder of the Wealth Group trading community, Ripple’s long-rumored IPO could be the next big XRP price catalyst. While Ripple executives continue to deny any near-term IPO plans, several corporate actions suggest otherwise.

Ripple recently launched a $700 million share buyback at $175 per share, implying a $25 billion valuation. John believes a successful IPO would boost investor confidence in Ripple and, by extension, increase demand for XRP, which powers Ripple’s cross-border products.

“An IPO would bring traditional investors into the ecosystem and potentially send XRP soaring,” John stated.

XRP Price Forms Symmetrical Triangle – A Big Move Is Coming

Since hitting $3.4 in January 2025, XRP has been consolidating in a symmetrical triangle pattern. A sharp rise of 44.92% occurred in mid-January, but a quick sell-off followed, leading to a full retracement by early February.

Another short-lived rally occurred in March when former President Trump mentioned XRP as part of a government crypto reserve. The coin spiked 36.97% in just two days, but again saw a sharp correction.

The price touched a yearly low of $1.61 in April before beginning a slow recovery. Now, as XRP nears the apex of this triangle, analysts expect a breakout — with a potential target above $3.

Ripple IPO Could Mirror Circle’s Explosive Debut

Many compare Ripple’s potential IPO to Circle’s blockbuster listing on the NYSE. On June 5, 2025, Circle (CRCL) surged 167% on debut, jumping from $31 to $82.84 per share. Its valuation soared from $7 billion to $25 billion.

This success has reignited speculation that Ripple might achieve even more — especially if it settles its ongoing lawsuit with the SEC, which is now reportedly close to resolution.

John Deaton once predicted Ripple could target a $100 billion IPO valuation after ending its legal battles.

Ripple Denies 2025 IPO Rumors, Focuses on Acquisitions

Despite mounting speculation, Ripple executives insist no IPO is planned for 2025. President Monica Long said the company is well-capitalized, and CEO Brad Garlinghouse emphasized a focus on strategic acquisitions instead.

In recent moves:

  • Ripple acquired Hidden Road for $1.25 billion
  • Acquired Metaco in 2023 for digital asset custody

However, reports from late 2023 suggest Ripple began hiring for IPO-related roles, including investor relations — keeping the IPO buzz alive.
