3 Reasons to Buy XRP Before the End of Summer

Key Points

Despite all the hype and buzz at the beginning of the year, XRP (CRYPTO: XRP) is only up 5% through the first half of 2025. But that could change over the next two months.

That's because a number of developments are now in the works that could send XRP much higher in the second half of the year. In fact, there are now three good reasons to buy XRP before the end of summer.

Regulatory clarity

If there is one cryptocurrency that could benefit from regulatory clarity, it's XRP. Ever since the start of the year, we've been hearing that a final resolution of the long-running case involving the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Ripple (the company behind the XRP token) would be coming "any day now."

In March, Ripple hinted that the SEC was finally going to drop its case. In June, Ripple announced that it planned to drop any future appeals. The SEC also hinted that it would be dropping all future appeals related to the case, but has not yet formally done so. There is still some final paperwork to be submitted. But the case should be wrapped up, once and for all, by the end of July.

3 Reasons to Buy XRP Before the End of Summer

Regulatory clarity does not end there. There are two massively important pieces of crypto legislation that are now working their way through the U.S. Congress: the Genius Act and the Clarity Act. The Genius Act defines the rules of the road for stablecoins , while the Clarity Act provides a comprehensive regulatory structure for all digital assets, including cryptocurrencies.

Both pieces of legislation are important for XRP. The Genius Act is important because stablecoins have emerged as a potential new growth opportunity for the XRP blockchain. The Clarity Act is important because, until it's passed, cautious institutional investors are going to have reservations about investing in XRP. Both bills are expected to be ready for the signature of President Donald Trump by the time Congress goes on summer recess in August.

The rise of XRP treasury companies

Another important development is the recent appearance of XRP treasury companies. The first-ever XRP treasury company appeared in early June, when VivoPower International announced that it would be acquiring $120 million in XRP for its balance sheet. Then, just two weeks later, fellow microcap Trident Digital Tech Holdings announced that it would be adding $500 million in XRP to its balance sheet.
