Forbes recently highlighted a significant inflow of $300 million into the cryptocurrency market, benefiting major cryptocurrencies like Ripple (XRP).
This influx has contributed to notable price increases, with Ripple reaching its highest intraday price of $0.6594, marking a 5.1% increase. Over the past seven days, XRP has seen a 4.5% effective rise from its low of $0.5725.
The resurgence of interest in the crypto market follows weeks of price regulations, with Goldman Sachs clients, particularly hedge funds, expressing readiness to enter the cryptocurrency space.
This renewed interest, fueled by FOMO (fear of missing out), has been further amplified by the approval of multiple US Bitcoin spot ETFs.
Max Minton, Goldman's Head of Digital Assets for Asia Pacific, noted that the recent ETF approval has sparked increased interest and activity among their clients, with many conducting active research or considering engagement in this sector.
This shift in appetite indicates a changing landscape where institutional investors are entering the fray alongside retail investors, driving price action in cryptocurrencies.
Despite Ripple's previous struggles, particularly due to ongoing litigation with the SEC, analysts at Changelly suggest that XRP could reach $1 by May 2025.
The outcome of Ripple's legal battle with the SEC could significantly impact XRP's price trajectory.
A favorable resolution for Ripple in this case could potentially provide a substantial boost to XRP's value in the future.
