Crypto News | XRP hits new ATH of $3.55 after 7 years amid altcoin surge Assad Jafri | usagoldmines.com

Ripple’s XRP surged to a new all-time high of $3.55 on July 17, climbing more than 36% over the past week and over 13% over the past 24 hours.

The rally marked XRP’s first break above its 2018 peak and came amid a broader altcoin resurgence.

The surge comes amid a wider altcoin rally led by Ethereum (ETH), which climbed 21% over the past week, while Solana (SOL) climbed 8% during the same period, fueled by growing adoption of blockchain infrastructure and renewed investor confidence in digital assets.

Ripple’s institutional push

Ripple Labs, the company behind XRP, has expanded its institutional footprint, securing partnerships with hundreds of banks and financial institutions globally.

These institutions are increasingly integrating the XRP Ledger to enable faster and cheaper cross-border payments and to tokenize real-world assets (RWA).

Ripple’s USD-backed stablecoin, RLUSD, has reached $517 million in market value within eight months of launch. Analysts expect a potential spot XRP ETF listing in the U.S. could further catalyze demand for the asset.

The resolution of Ripple’s long-standing legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, with both parties dropping appeals, has removed a major regulatory overhang and positioned XRP as a blockchain solution tailored for compliance-focused institutions.

Outlook remains bullish

With regulatory clarity improving and institutional use cases gaining momentum, the breakout is seen as a validation of Ripple’s long-term strategy.

XRP’s all-time high reflects investor belief in Ripple’s vision of building an ā€œinternet of value,ā€ where financial institutions can move assets seamlessly across borders.

XRP now trails only Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum in total market capitalization and currently sits at a little over $205 billion, signaling a potential reordering of the crypto landscape as regulated utility tokens gain ground.
