XRP long-term rise scenario: Will real-world demand push up price?
XRP could rise gradually as real-world use expands, rather than relying on speculative spikes, a report said. A community figure outlined an “endgame theory” in which utility first lifts the price floor and speculation later increases volatility. Supply pressure could be a turning point if more XRP is tied up in use cases and exchange supply falls as demand rises. Ripple executive Markus Infanger also pointed to growth in tokenised assets and U.S. spot ETF adoption.

Ripple expands business but XRP lags; investors call for more real-world use
Criticism is growing that Ripple’s business expansion is not translating into progress for XRP. Royal Peak Capital CIO Arthur said Ripple is widening its global footprint, but XRP has yet to show clear gains in real-world utility, volume or integrations. XRP has fallen more than 60 percent since mid-2025 and trades around $1.38. Debate has shifted to XRPL Las Vegas 2026, while Ripple executives say the gap is exaggerated.

Ripple executive says no gap between XRP price and demand as ETF and real use grow together
Ripple rejected claims that XRP\'s price is disconnected from real demand, saying it is expanding both as an investment asset and as financial infrastructure. Senior vice president Markus Infanger (마르쿠스 인팡거) said real-world use is steadily growing alongside investor interest. Ripple cited a rise in tokenised assets on the XRP Ledger to more than $2 billion and said a U.S. spot XRP ETF could boost liquidity and payment efficiency. He also said RLUSD complements, not replaces, XRP.
