XRP’s Rollercoaster Week: Legal Triumph, ETF Mania & Wild Price Swings (Sept 26, 2025)
Ripple’s legal battle with the SEC ended as both sides dropped appeals, confirming a 2023 ruling that XRP sales on exchanges are not securities. The first U.S. spot XRP ETF launched Sept. 18, trading $37.7 million on debut. XRP price fell 9% this week to around $2.75 amid heavy selling, erasing over $18 billion in market cap. Analysts warn a break below $2.70 could trigger further declines.
