XRP price nudges higher after Ripple custody move — next catalyst hits Friday
XRP rose 1.1% to $1.4466 Monday, with $3.8 billion in trading, but remains down 10.7% over the week, CoinGecko data showed. Ripple announced new custody partnerships with Securosys and Figment, adding staking support for Ethereum and Solana. Bitcoin traded near $69,994, up 1.1%. Regulatory pressure eased after Ripple settled with the SEC last August, leaving a $125 million penalty and restrictions on institutional sales.
