XRP Price Jumps Back After Wild Swing – Ripple’s Token Eyes ETF Catalyst in Volatile Crypto Market
XRP traded near $2.35 on October 18, 2025, recovering from a 42% flash crash last week triggered by a U.S.–China tariff threat. The SEC ended its lawsuit against Ripple in August, clearing the way for U.S. exchanges to relist XRP and for ETF applications now awaiting SEC decisions. XRP’s market cap stands at about $140 billion, among the top five crypto assets. Bitcoin is under $107,000; Ethereum trades near $3,900.
