However, Donald Trump\u2019s victory in the US presidential election in November changed everything and was followed by a massive rally. XRP surpassed $2.50 less than a month after the triumph, while in January 2025, it almost <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ripple-missed-new-ath-by-just-1-can-xrp-break-through-today\/\">matched<\/a> its all-time high of $3.40.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Over the <\/span><span>next<\/span><span> months, the price retraced substantially and <\/span><span>currently<\/span><span> trades at roughly $1.80<\/span><span>. <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coindesk.com\/markets\/2025\/04\/08\/xrp-could-hit-usd12-5-before-president-trump-s-term-ends-standard-chartered\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>According<\/span><\/a><span> to the British bank Standard Chartered, XRP has much more fuel left for another bull run <\/span><span>in the near future<\/span><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The institution supposedly noted the asset\u2019s progress since Trump\u2019s victory, predicting that the valuation could reach $5.50 by the end of this year and $12.50 by the end of 2028 (shortly before the president\u2019s term finishes). According to Standard Chartered, the potential approval of XRP exchange-traded funds while the Republican stays in charge will be a <\/span><span>major<\/span><span> catalyst.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Earlier this week, asset manager Teucrium <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/heres-when-teucriums-leveraged-xrp-etf-will-go-live-in-the-us\/\">introduced<\/a> the first XRP-based ETF in the US, while the community still awaits the launch of a spot ETF.

He <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/10-promises-donald-trump-has-made-regarding-bitcoin-and-crypto\/\">made<\/a> numerous promises to let the sector flourish, pledged to turn America into a global hub for crypto, and has consistently signaled his support for the growth of US-based digital asset companies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>At the beginning of March, he <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/xrp-ada-sol-skyrocket-by-double-digits-in-minutes-after-this-trump-endorsement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>confirmed<\/span><\/a><span> that his administration would move forward with establishing a strategic crypto reserve that would include XRP (among other leading cryptocurrencies).

In the aftermath, XRP\u2019s price soared significantly, but the spike was short-lived.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Further endorsement of the token <\/span><span>from Trump may positively impact its value in the following months and years. However, it is <\/span><span>important<\/span><span> to note that an explosion to $12.5 would require the asset\u2019s market cap to hit almost $700 billion.
