What to Know:
Ripple, the company behind $XRP, is making headlines again after unveiling a high-profile partnership with Mastercard, WebBank, and Gemini.
The collaboration will introduce $RLUSD, Ripple’s U.S. dollar–backed stablecoin, to facilitate instant fiat credit card settlements, a development that could reshape on-chain payment infrastructure.
This strategic move has strengthened Ripple’s position in the payments space and could lift $XRP’s long-term value outlook, particularly as the company recently raised $500 million, bringing its total valuation to around $40B.
Like Ripple, Bitcoin Hyper is positioning itself at the intersection of infrastructure, scalability, and adoption, offering investors exposure to the next phase of blockchain evolution.
While $RLUSD and $XRP serve distinct purposes within Ripple’s ecosystem, the company’s partnerships with Mastercard, WebBank, and Gemini could significantly boost activity and liquidity across the XRP Ledger over time.
Sustained adoption of the ledger would naturally enhance XRP’s on-chain utility, a key factor that could drive the token’s value higher.
Many analysts believe that improved transactional demand could push $XRP back toward the $3 range, with further upside possible if additional XRP ETFs receive approval by 2026, potentially setting the stage for a return to $3.50 or beyond.
To maintain long-term investor confidence, utility remains the defining metric. Should Ripple continue deepening integrations that expand real-world use cases, $XRP could finally challenge its long-standing all-time high of $3.84, last reached in early 2018.
Bitcoin Hyper: Unlocking $BTC’s Untapped Utility with Its Canonical Bridge
Speaking of utility, another crypto with even more underlying potential is Bitcoin. Yes, it’s the largest crypto by market capitalization, but it’s only effective as a store of value at the moment.
This means that you can’t use your $BTC for other applications, such as staking. Making this possible isn’t simply a matter of rewriting Bitcoin’s underlying code, though. Doing so would come at the cost of its robust utility.
It’s a project that aims to develop a Layer 2 (L2) network, delivering Solana-level speeds and low transaction costs to the Bitcoin ecosystem. When it launches, settling Bitcoin transactions could take a fraction of a second rather than hours, or even days.
By unlocking Bitcoin’s untapped utility, Bitcoin Hyper could drive up $BTC’s price by leaps and bounds, similar to what $RLUSD could do for $XRP.
Due to its promising goal, the Bitcoin Hyper presale has garnered significant attention from investors since its launch. To date, it has already raised over $26M and it only continues to grow.
In fact, the presale raised a whopping $239K yesterday, thanks to these whale buys:
You can participate in the project by acquiring your share of its $HYPER tokens. Right now, you can still get them for only $0.013225 each, but with yet another price increase coming soon, it’s best to act as quickly as possible.
Alternatively, you can stake your tokens after purchasing them. This will allow you to earn 45% p.a. in staking rewards, but note that this can still change as more tokens are locked in the staking pool.
