XRP is trading at $2.08, up marginally by 0.29% over the last 24 hours. Even with the significant dip of 30.32% to $1.59 billion in trading volume, the token has been stable over the week. Still, on the seven-day timeline, XRP has lost 3.35%, which reflects constrained performance amidst otherwise conservative crypto action.
Technical analysis identifies an emerging pattern of strengthening consolidation with the potential to break out. The short-term sentiment is rated 85/100, with long-term indicators at an incredible 90/100, thus giving the impression that bullish momentum is developing. Monitoring for an increase in trading volume that could act as confirmation for an up movement.
Adding to the market prognosis is a recent 18.3% fall in wider metrics, but on-chain indicators depict diminishing exchange reserves along with stable levels. Together, this suggests that holders are offloading assets from centralized platforms, usually an indication of long-term conviction.
HashKey launches XRP tracker fund in Asia
A major development bolstering market confidence is the launch of Asia’s first XRP tracker fund by HashKey Capital. Officially named the HashKey XRP Tracker Fund, the product allows professional investors to gain exposure to XRP without directly handling digital wallets or private keys. Ripple itself is anchoring the fund, further legitimizing its credibility among institutional players.
Vivien Wong, a partner at HashKey Capital, confirmed that Ripple is backing the initiative. “We will extend HashKey Capital’s connections to financial institutions, regulators, and investors in Asia to Ripple,” she noted. The fund allows for monthly liquidity and accepts investment in both cash and in-kind XRP.
HashKey selected CF Benchmarks to manage price tracking, an industry-recognized entity that also supports crypto ETFs in the U.S. and Asia-Pacific regions. This tracker fund is HashKey’s third such crypto product and is seen as the first step in a broader strategic collaboration between the two companies.
Ripple’s influence on XRP price in 2025
XRP’s average value by 2025 is predicted by crypto exchange Changelly to be $2.11, with potential variability ranging from $1.71 to $1.91. The forecast has the modest potential ROI of -9% laying out a steady but muted development track. By April 2025, XRP is predicted by analysts to be at $1.74 to $2.09, with an essentially flat ROI of -0.5%.
Although the projections indicate limited room for gains, increasing institutional participation, especially with Ripple directly involved, has the potential to be a basis for more optimistic outlooks, if overall market dynamics remain favorable.
