XRP Price Prediction: SEC’s New Proposal Could Trigger a Massive Bull Run

Story Highlights
  • The SEC proposal suggests classifying XRP as a payment network, not a security, to facilitate its use in unlocking global financial liquidity.

  • The proposal outlines a plan for the U.S. to utilize XRP to release $1.5 trillion towards building a Bitcoin reserve.

  • This regulatory shift, if implemented, is projected to trigger a significant bullish trend for XRP, potentially leading to price increases.

After years of legal battles under former President Biden’s administration, Ripple Labs is finally seeing a breakthrough. President Donald Trump’s administration is reportedly considering using XRP as part of a plan to build a strategic Bitcoin (BTC) reserve. A recent proposal from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) states that XRP is not a security but a key financial asset for the country.

The proposal highlights how XRP could help unlock $27 trillion stuck in global nostro accounts, with $5 trillion tied to the U.S. economy. Under this plan, the U.S. government would release $1.5 trillion through XRP and use those funds to purchase Bitcoin.

“Donald Trump’s recent comments regarding a Bitcoin reserve have led to confusion about the U.S. government’s cryptocurrency strategy. While Bitcoin serves as a strategic digital reserve asset, other cryptocurrencies such as XRP, Solana, and Cardano could play critical roles in the national digital economy,” the SEC’s proposal noted.

According to the proposal, XRP should be classified as a payment network and not a security. Such a move by the U.S. SEC will enable the settlement of the ongoing legal dispute with Ripple.

The proposal also calls on the Department of Justice to lift banking restrictions on XRP transactions. Additionally, it suggests that the Federal Reserve and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) mandate XRP’s integration into banks for liquidity solutions using the XRPL network.

To implement these changes, the SEC has outlined a standard 24-month timeline, with an option to accelerate it to 6–12 months.

XRP’s Price Breakout

With legal clarity expected soon, XRP could be on the verge of a major price rally—possibly similar to its explosive 2017 bull run. The cryptocurrency has already broken out of a six-year consolidation phase and is entering price discovery, setting the stage for significant growth.

With the stage set for regulatory clarity, XRP’s path forward may be the most exciting chapter yet.
