Ripple Price Prediction As Spot XRP ETF Records Strongest Launch of 2025

XRP has entered a new era with the approval of its first U.S. spot exchange-traded fund (ETF). The REX-Osprey XRP ETF (ticker: XRPR) finished its debut session with a trading volume of $37.75 million, making it the most successful “day one” ETF launch of 2025. In fact, XRPR saw five times the trading volume of any previous XRP futures-based ETF within just the first 90 minutes of trading.

Unlike futures ETFs, this new fund directly holds XRP tokens. That means both retail and institutional investors can now gain regulated exposure to XRP through standard brokerage accounts, without having to set up crypto wallets or use exchanges.

The ETF approval comes alongside Ripple’s fresh partnerships with DBS Bank and Franklin Templeton, which further strengthen confidence in XRP’s role in global payments and digital asset adoption.

XRP price holds above key support

On the price charts, XRP has been consolidating after its latest rally. Analysts say that the token is holding firm above $3, with $2.90 acting as a strong support zone. As long as XRP stays above these levels, the breakout from its recent triangle formation remains valid.

However, resistance remains ahead. Important levels to watch include $3.12, $3.30–$3.40, and a major upside target at $3.80. Technical indicators have also issued a warning: a bearish divergence is still in play on the weekly chart, meaning momentum could slow before another move higher.

Inverse head-and-shoulders signals bullish setup

A possible inverse head-and-shoulders pattern is also visible on the daily chart. This is considered a bullish reversal formation. For the pattern to confirm, XRP needs a decisive breakout above the neckline at around $3.13–$3.14 with daily closes holding above that level.

If confirmed, the move could activate a target around $3.50–$3.52, representing a 12–13% gain from the breakout point. Failure to hold above $3.14, however, would invalidate the setup and put downside pressure back into play.

What’s next for XRP?

The combination of a record-breaking ETF debut, new institutional partnerships, and improving technical structures gives XRP a strong foundation for growth. But investors should be prepared for pullbacks at resistance levels before any sustained rally.

If the trend continues, XRP’s next major test will be breaking above $3.30–$3.40 and holding towards $3.80. A confirmed breakout could shift the narrative and set XRP up for its strongest bull cycle yet.
