Ripple Announces $1.25B Acquisition Of Hidden Road To Set Major Milestone

Ripple Labs has announced a major acquisition to shock the market out of an otherwise dreadful week. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the crypto firm announced that it has acquired Hidden Road, a brokerage, clearing, and financing firm as it moves forward in its mission to become the leader for institutional investors moving into the digital assets space. Ripple Acquires Hidden Road For $1.25 Billion The Tuesday announcement by Ripple has further solidified the mission that the crypto firm has long put forward, and that is to provide instant and quick transfer of value for traditional and institutional investors coming into the digital assets space. Related Reading: Crypto Pundit Reveals What Will Happen If XRP Price Does Not Break $2.3 As CEO Brad Garlinghouse explained in a separate X post, the decision to acquire Hidden Road for $1.25 billion comes after a long-standing customer relationship with the company. Garlinghouse revealed that Ripple understands the breadth of Hidden Roads expertise, making it a prime candidate for the acquisition. The integration of the XRP Ledger by Hidden Road will allow for cheap and fast movement of value to the brokerages customers, which moves over $3 trillion annually. A portion of this massive value is expected to move through the ledger, as well as using the RLUSD stablecoin as collateral for brokerage services. Additionally, Hidden Road will be able to expand its capacity for value transfer, allowing Ripple to process even more volume. With this deal and the backing of Ripples significant balance sheet, Hidden Road will exponentially expand its capacity to service its pipeline and become the largest non-bank prime broker globally, Garlinghouses post read. This acquisition comes after Ripple acquired Standard Custody back in February 2024. Standard Custody provided an online platform offering clients digital asset custody solutions, enabling Ripple to move into the custody market as well. XRP Price Responds Despite the Ripple announcement, the XRP price has remained muted as it continues to struggle below $2, which has since turned to resistance. At the time of writing, XRP is still holding at $1.96, despite its almost 10% in the last 24 hours. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Warns Of Volume Drop That Could Trigger 60% Bitcoin Price Crash To $49,000 According to data from Coinmarketcap, the XRP daily trading volume has seen a notable decline, dropping approximately 24% in the last day. This suggests a decline in participation from investors, due to the bearish headwinds that continue to blow through the crypto market. A recovery from here is highly dependent on Bitcoin, which continues to dominate the market and lead the charge. Chart from Tradingview.com

Ripple CEO Walks Back $5 Trillion Crypto Marker Prediction, Unveils New Target

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ripple, Brad Garlinghouse, has revised his earlier ambitious prediction on the crypto industrys future market capitalization, acknowledging that he had underestimated the markets potential surge.  Ripple CEO Underpredicts Crypto Market Cap Appearing in a recent interview with Fox Business, Garlinghouse shed light on the growth potential of the cryptocurrency market as well as its performance since the beginning of the year.  The Ripple CEO was questioned about his previous optimistic forecast for the crypto industrys market capitalization, in which he projected that the market cap would double to approximately $5 trillion by the end of the year. According to CoinMarketCap, the current global cryptocurrency market capitalization stands at roughly around $2.25 trillion.  Related Reading: Heres What Would Happen If The Bitcoin Price Fell Below $58,000 In response to the inquiry, Garlinghouse expressed his belief that his previous predictions were not overly ambitious, emphasizing the markets potential for further growth. He admitted to underpredicting the industrys potential market capitalization by the end of 2024, citing factors such as the current supply and demand dynamics driving additional increases.  Garlinghouse noted that the current market conditions are characterized by increased demand and reduced supply, with these dynamics playing a significant role in the performance of cryptocurrencies.  He disclosed that the Spot Bitcoin ETF market and the overall sentiment regarding Bitcoins value have significantly boosted demand for the cryptocurrency. Meanwhile, Bitcoins supply is diminishing due to the increasing number of large-scale investors purchasing the cryptocurrency rapidly. Additionally, the impending Bitcoin halving event is expected to further decrease the cryptocurrencys supply.  Assessing the current state of the crypto market, Garlinghouse stated that since the last six months, Bitcoin has been up by more than 250%, with further increases anticipated. He also asserted that this overperformance was largely driven by the approval and launch of Spot Bitcoin ETFs as well as the upcoming Bitcoin halving.  Regulations Are Vital For Market Development Garlinghouse has disclosed that establishing proper regulatory frameworks for the cryptocurrency market would yield positive outcomes for the market in the future.  He explained that one of the primary factors hindering the growth of this evolving market was the United States prevailing anti-crypto stance, suggesting that the countrys enforcement actions on the developing industry were problematic. Related Reading: Goldman Sachs On Bitcoin Halving: It doesnt Matter If Its A Buy The Rumor, Sell The News Event The Ripple CEO highlighted several countries, including Dubai, Singapore and the United Kingdom, which have been proactively embracing cryptocurrencies and implementing proper regulatory systems to foster further growth in the market.  Garlinghouse has asserted that the US has significantly lagged in recognizing the transformative and innovative impact of the cryptocurrency market, attributing this setback to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and its current Chair, Gary Gensler.

How XRP Pulled Off A 33% Rally Over The Past 7 Days

Ripple (XRP) price has registered an impressive 33% advance above the key resistance zone as seen in the past week.         XRP notably spikes by 10% on September 22         Ripple confident to win legal feud against SEC The token also skyrocketed 10% as seen on September 22, as the crypto market plunged in a sea of red. Although a bit of improvement with Bitcoin raking up gains by 4.9% and Ethereum spiking by 7.3%, XRP was still leading that day. According to CoinMarketCap, XRP price is up by 4.47% or trading at $0.5051 as of this writing. Related Reading: Polkadot Suffers 10% Weekly Loss On Hawkish Fed – Time To Buy DOT? Update On Legal Feud With SEC Raises Investor Optimism XRP price demonstrates a surge of over 45% as seen since August. Reportedly, Ripple Labs has recently filed a motion for summary judgment on September 18 which involves allowing the court to wrap it up and make a final decision based on the facts presented in line with whether XRP is to be considered a security. The recent update on the legal proceedings has stirred some optimism and pumped up investor sentiment regarding the long-term haul of XRP. More so, the open interest of XRP has notably improved as it has increased to $575 million from just $310 million in the past week. Traders who are looking to get in should wait for the 200-day EMA set at $0.48 to see if it would swing to support in the coming days. As of press time, XRP’s total market capitalization is at $25.14 billion as it climbed by $3 billion the previous day. Related Reading: What Ethereum Can Bring On The Table For ETH Investors In Q4 Image: CoinMarketCap XRP Seen With Strong Bullish Strides On the daily chart, the XRP price is noted to have bounced back after it dropped and is now enjoying a bull run. The bulls are targeting to breach the key resistance spotted at $0.4306 and once this is done, XRP could shoot for $0.49 next. Amid the optimism shown by XRP, a breach targeted at the key support zone of $0.392 will reveal signs of buyer weakness. More so, this will also invalidate the bullish thesis and give the power back to the bears. If this happens, the XRP price could plunge and revisit the key support zone at $0.38. XRP is seen to move with strong strides despite the hurdles experienced by the broader crypto market. The bullish streak is associated with the robust developments happening in the legal battle between Ripple and SEC. Although both SEC and Ripple agreed to a summary judgment, Ripple seems to be more confident that they’ll win following several tweets by Stuart Alderoty, Ripple’s legal counsel, saying that SEC wasn’t able to satiate the Howey Test set by the Supreme Court. The Howey Test helps regulators assess and categorize an asset as a security. More so, Brad Garlinghouse, Ripple CEO, firmly believes that SEC may not be keen on abiding by the law but would want to remake it.
