Market analysts are interpreting the spike in volume as a sign of renewed investor interest, possibly driven by a combination of macroeconomic conditions, favorable legal developments, and broader altcoin momentum. XRP has historically seen sharp upward price movements when trading volumes rise significantly, a trend that appears to be repeating.
One of the main catalysts for the renewed activity is growing optimism around Ripple Labs' ongoing legal saga with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). After a protracted legal battle, the case has entered its final phases, with legal experts predicting a settlement or final ruling within the next quarter. The market appears to be pricing in a favorable outcome, which could have major implications for XRP's regulatory clarity in the U.S.
"This recent volume spike is no coincidence," said Tara Simmons, head of digital assets research at NovaCrypto Insights. "It suggests that large investors—possibly institutions—are re-entering the market in anticipation of a major move. When this happens with XRP, it often precedes a significant breakout."
Live Events
Adding to the bullish sentiment is XRP's improving technical outlook. Technical analysts note that XRP has broken through a key resistance level at \$0.85 and is now eyeing the \$1.00 psychological barrier. A confirmed move above that level could open the door to a retest of 2021 highs, assuming broader market conditions remain favorable.
The uptick in XRP's fortunes also comes amid a broader resurgence in altcoin activity. Ethereum, Solana, and Cardano have also posted solid gains in recent days, suggesting that market appetite for non-Bitcoin assets is returning after a prolonged consolidation period.
However, not all analysts are convinced this is the start of a long-term uptrend. Some caution that without a definitive resolution to the Ripple-SEC case or a fresh wave of utility-based adoption, XRP's momentum could be short-lived.
Still, the enthusiasm is palpable among retail investors and traders. Social media platforms such as X (formerly Twitter) and Reddit's r/CryptoCurrency community have seen a sharp rise in XRP-related discussions, with hashtags like #XRPRally and #XRPBullRun trending globally.
Whether this momentum translates into a sustained breakout remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: XRP is heating up again—and the crypto world is watching closely.

Bhushan Power and Steel lenders seek Rs 6,155 cr interest from JSW over resolution delay
The lenders of Bhushan Power and Steel ( BPSL ) on Thursday told the Supreme Court that they are entitled to claim interest and EBITDA of over Rs 6,155 crore from JSW Steel , which had acquired the debt-ridden firm earlier in 2021, for the delay in implementation of the steelmaker 's Rs 19,700 crore resolution plan. Besides, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) of Rs 3569 crore generated during the insolvency process of BPSL from July 26, 2017 (insolvency commencement) to March 26, 2021 (resolution plan implementation) must also flow to the creditors, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta and counsel Raunak Dhillion, appearing for the Committee of Creditors (CoC) of BPSL told a Bench comprising Chief Justice BR Gavai and Justices Satish Chandra Sharma and K. Vinod Chandran.

'Due to delay in implementation of the Resolution Plan, by a period of 538 days (period from October 5, 2019 (30 days from NCLT plan approval date) till March 26, 2021, calculated at SBI 1 year MCLR rate of 8.80 %, being Rs 2509.88 crore,' the lenders said, adding that interest of Rs 76.62 crore on delayed payments made to operational creditors due to delay in implementation, by a period of 908 days (from October 5, 2019 till March 31, 2022, which is the date of payments made to operational creditors). by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Could Be the Best Time to Trade Gold in 5 Years IC Markets Learn More Undo They said that the implementation of the Sajjan Jindal-led JSW's approved resolution plan was significantly delayed and the payments to financial creditors and operational creditors were delayed by 540 days and 900 days, respectively, which was beyond the initially approved timeline, the CoC, consisting mostly PSU banks and financial institutions, alleged. 'The erstwhile CoC allowed JSW to be unjustly enriched by permitting delay in implementation and not seeking interest and/ EBITDA for such delayed implementation,' the lenders said. Live Events Further, the May 2 judgement which has since been recalled on July 31 had also made certain observations on seeking interest on delayed implementation of the plan by the lenders, the CoC stated in its affidavit filed before the apex court on Thursday. The erstwhile promoters of BPSL submitted that liquidation was not the objective, but a fresh corporate insolvency resolution process (CIRP) should be initiated if the JSW's resolution plan was found to be flawed. Senior counsel Dhruv Mehta, appearing for ex-promoter Sanjay Sighal, submitted that once a resolution plan is approved by the NCLT, the CoC's comes to an end and it cannot continue to assert decision-making authority. "If the plan is flawed, I don't want to go to liquidation. I want a fresh process. Even in liquidation, the first priority is to sell the company as a going concern,' Mehta said, adding that the statutory scheme under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) does not allow the CoC to reopen or modify a plan post-approval. 'After approval by the NCLT, the plan attains finality. The CoC has no locus thereafter. They cannot seek to terminate the plan or substitute it with a fresh one,' Singhal, also represented through counsel Soayib Qureshi, argued, while seeking setting aside of the JSW's resolution plan. Stating that fresh bids shall be invited for BPSL, the Singhal's counsel also argued that JSW had failed to bring in equity infusion which it had committed under the resolution plan. The apex court on Thursday started hearing afresh the pleas by multiple stakeholders, including the CoC, the Directorate of Enforcement, operational creditor Kalyani Transco, former promoter Sanjay Singhal, Odisha, and others, challenging JSW Steel's resolution plan for the debt-ridden company. The SC will resume continue hearing in the case on Friday at 2PM. The SC in a rare instant had on July 31 recalled its May 2 judgement that scrapped JSW Steel's acquisition of BPSL and ordered its liquidation, giving interim relief to the Sajjan Jindal-led company that claimed to have infused Rs 30,000 crore to turn around the bankrupt steelmaker. A bench led by Chief Justice BR Gavai allowed the review pleas filed by JSW Steel and BPSL's lenders, including State Bank of India and Punjab National Bank , holding that this 'is a fit case' where the judgement 'needs to be recalled and the matter is to be considered afresh'. Another bench of Justices Bela M Trivedi (now retired) and Satish Chandra Sharma had on May 2 scrapped JSW Steel's acquisition of BPSL, four years after the transaction was closed, holding that the steelmaker's Rs 19,700 crore resolution proposal was 'illegal' and 'in gross violation' of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code. It termed JSW's intention 'mala fide and dishonest', saying that the company took undue advantage of pending Enforcement Directorate proceedings and did not implement its plan for two years. Justice Trivedi has since retired. After JSW sought a review of the order, the apex court on May 26 ordered status quo on the liquidation proceedings till it decided the review petition. The lenders too approached the court with a similar review plea.
