Ripple Reserve Discussions Catch Up Heat
Crypto attorney Fred Rispoli has pointed out a significant development for XRP. According to newly passed legislation by New Hampshire, if XRP achieves a $500 billion market capitalization within this year, it would qualify for inclusion in New Hampshire’s digital asset strategic reserve by 2026.
For a $500 billion market cap, the Ripple price could be trading somewhere around $8.5. Many analysts have already been predicting a rally beyond $10 by the end of 2025. As of now, XRP price is trading at $2.17 with a massive $4.35 billion in trading volumes.
