XRP price has slowly formed a bullish pattern, pointing to an eventual rebound as whales buy and negotiations with Circle continue.

Ripple (XRP) was trading at $2.33 on Tuesday, down 12% from its highest point this week.

On-chain data shows that whales have continued to buy XRP as it experiences several key catalysts. One of these is the ongoing negotiations for Ripple Labs to acquire Circle, the creator of USD Coin (USDC).

A Circle buyout would propel Ripple Labs into becoming the second-biggest player in the stablecoin industry. It would also make Ripple the third most profitable crypto project after Tether (USDT) and Tron (TRX). TokenTerminal data shows that Circle has made $1.58 billion this year.  

Circle would also help to complement Ripple USD (RLUSD), its recently-launched stablecoin, whose market cap stands at over $313 million. 

Another top XRP catalyst is the growing demand for Ripple assets on Wall Street. For example, eleven companies have applied for a spot XRP ETF, more than Solana’s seven. Additionally, the recently launched Teucrium 2X XRP ETF, ticker XXRP, has gained over $106 million in assets. 

CME Group has also launched a new regulated XRP futures, opening it to US investors. There are chances that one or more companies will offer ETFs to track these futures.

Polymarket data shows that the odds of a spot XRP ETF approval have jumped to over 80% this year. With XXRP fund having substantial inflows, there is a likelihood that these funds will also have demand from Wall Street investors. 

Further, Ripple has continued growing its partnerships. It expanded in the UAE this week through integrations with Zand Bank and Mamo. This is part of Ripple’s strategy to grow its market share against Swift, which handles over $150 trillion annually.
