Inquired about XRP's bull run in 2025: ChatGPT, Grok, and Claude's perspective on its conclusion?
The XRP bull run in 2025 shows no signs of slowing down, with industry experts predicting that the approval of the first spot XRP Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) in the United States could significantly fuel the ongoing rally.
Currently trading at around $3.14, the price of Ripple's cross-border token has already surged by an impressive 470% since November 2024. Analysts assign a high probability (around 78-95%) for ETF approval by Q4 2025, with the decisive regulatory deadline in October 2025.
The potential approval of the first spot XRP ETF is expected to open XRP to greater institutional investment through regulated channels, likely increasing demand and price momentum. Institutional investors prefer ETFs for easier, regulated exposure, and market analysis indicates significant inflows could follow approval.
The regulatory environment has been more crypto-friendly since the appointment of Paul Atkins as SEC Chair in April 2025. Combined with a pro-crypto political environment and the expected resolution in Ripple's ongoing SEC lawsuit, these factors reduce regulatory uncertainty, paving the way for ETF approval.
The timing of the ETF approval seems to coincide with upgrades to global payments standards such as ISO 20022, enhancing XRP’s utility as a cross-border settlement asset. This could strengthen bullish sentiment.
Despite recent price dips related to regulatory delays, many insiders and analysts remain optimistic that an ETF approval will act as a catalyst for renewed price rallies and sustained bullish momentum.
Claude, a renowned cryptocurrency analyst, predicts that XRP's short-term target is in the $3.50-$3.75 range, with a medium-term target stretching to as high as $11.20 by October 2025.
The investment vehicle will enable individuals to gain easy access to XRP through regular brokerage accounts, potentially attracting more institutional and retail buyers, boosting demand, and driving XRP's price higher.
Recent whale acquisitions, with whales accumulating 900 million XRP, equivalent to $2.8 billion, can push the price up if demand stays strong.
Overall, the combination of improved regulatory clarity, growing institutional interest, and XRP’s payment network upgrades strongly suggests that a successful spot XRP ETF approval in late 2025 will likely drive a continued XRP bull run throughout the remainder of the year and into 2026.
