The Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act sailed through the Senate in June and secured the votes it needs in the House this week after an eleventh\u2011hour whip by President Donald\u202fTrump. House Majority Leader Steve\u202fScalise told reporters, \u201cWe\u2019re back on track\u202f\u2026 all three bills will be encompassed in the work we do today,\u201d referring also to the CLARITY and Anti\u2011CBDC acts.<\/p>\n<p>Ripple, which launched its dollar\u2011backed RLUSD last December, is already positioning for that environment. On 2\u202fJuly the company filed for a US national bank charter and a Federal Reserve master account that would let it custody RLUSD reserves directly at the Fed. Two weeks later it confirmed plans to secure an EU electronic\u2011money\u2011institution licence under MiCA; a company spokesperson said Ripple aims \u201cto become MiCA\u2011compliant\u201d because it sees \u201csignificant opportunity in the European market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The second driver is the near\u2011resolution of Ripple\u2019s grinding courtroom saga. On\u202f26\u202fJune, when US District Judge\u202fAnalisa\u202fTorres rebuffed a joint motion by Ripple and the SEC that would have vacated her permanent injunction and sliced the civil penalty from\u202f$125\u202fmillion to $50\u202fmillion, ruling the parties had \u201cnot come close\u201d to establishing the \u201cexceptional circumstances\u201d required to alter a final judgment.<\/p>\n<p>The next day CEO\u202fBrad\u202fGarlinghouse announced on X that Ripple will drop its own cross\u2011appeal and \u201cclose this chapter once and for all,\u201d adding that he expects the SEC to withdraw its appeal as well. For now, however, Torres\u2019s injunction and the full $125\u202fmillion penalty remain in force, leaving any definitive resolution, however, the end has never been closer.<\/p>\n<p>With the litigation roadblock largely cleared, exchange\u2011traded\u2011fund issuers have accelerated filings. ProShares on 15 July rolled out 2\u00d7 leveraged futures funds tied to Solana and XRP, noting that spot\u2011based products remain in the SEC queue. Only a week earlier, the agency issued new disclosure guidance meant to streamline crypto\u2011ETF approvals. Trump Media &amp;\u202fTechnology Group has even asked the SEC to sign off on a \u201cblue\u2011chip\u201d basket ETF that would hold bitcoin, ether, solana and xrp, signalling bipartisan pressure to open the ETF spigot further.<\/p>\n<p>Ripple is also arming itself for a buying spree. \u201cOur M&amp;A people are very busy,\u201d chief technology officer David\u202fSchwartz told DL\u202fNews in late June, revealing \u201cmultiple potential acquisitions in various different stages.\u201d The firm has already paid $1.25\u202fbillion for prime broker Hidden\u202fRoad this year and is building an on\u2011ledger lending protocol slated for Q3, moves that could deepen XRP liquidity and justify higher valuations.<\/p>\n<p>Each strand\u2014the GENIUS Act, the bank charter and MiCA licences, the SEC\u2019s retreat, the ETF pipeline, and Ripple\u2019s war\u2011chest for acquisitions\u2014converges on the same conclusion: regulatory opacity is fading just as institutional distribution channels open. Whether that is enough to propel XRP through the previous all-time high at $3.84 from January 2018 remains to be seen, but the technical setup is also looking quite strong, as Pentoshi concludes.<\/p>\n<p>At press time, XRP traded at $3.14.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-789955\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/XRPUSDT_2025-07-17_08-17-15.png?resize=1024%2C454\" alt=\"XRP price\" width=\"1024\" height=\"454\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crypto strategist Pentoshi put the market on notice in a late\u2011Tuesday post. \u201cWith\u202fXRP it held up for the past 7\u202fmonths while most of the market nuked and kept this structure.
