News of a potential Ripple IPO in 2026 has dominated headlines recently. Recent reports suggest that the company is already in late-stage talks to go public in 2026.
Public listings are not casual moves, as they come with scrutiny, disclosure, and regulatory exposure. For firms deeply tied to financial infrastructure, that step usually signals preparation, not experimentation.
That view was laid out clearly by crypto commentator Ripple Bull Winkle (@RipBullWinkle) in a recent video discussing XRP and the company’s direction.

Is Ripple Considering an IPO?
Ripple Bull Winkle challenged a common perception that Ripple operates like a typical private crypto company. He argued that late-stage IPO discussions do not happen unless leadership sees favorable conditions ahead. As he put it, “Private firms usually stay private as long as possible.”
An IPO brings regulatory oversight and constant attention from Wall Street. Companies avoid that unless they believe the environment supports growth. According to Ripple Bull Winkle, the fact that Ripple may be exploring an IPO now suggests confidence in regulation, infrastructure, and demand for its XRP-powered services.
He stressed that “the timing isn’t random.” In his view, these conversations start long before expansion. That distinction is important for market participants interested in XRP’s future.
Confidence Signals for XRP
Ripple Bull Winkle sees the IPO discussion as a signal of maturity. He said it shows confidence that Ripple’s business model can operate under public market expectations. That includes compliance, transparency, and long-term scalability.
Experts believe Ripple’s IPO can directly influence XRP’s price. Ripple Bull Winkle noted that once a company enters public markets, it undergoes formal valuation. That process forces institutions to assign clear value to the business and its associated network. He argued that when that happens, the underlying asset tied to that ecosystem gets revalued.

What Investors Are Watching Now
Ripple Bull Winkle made it clear that this phase does not revolve around charts alone. He said people paying attention “aren’t watching charts.” They are watching positioning. That includes how institutions prepare for regulatory clarity and public market exposure.
The expectation he outlined was not immediate price movement. IPO discussions signal that Ripple believes the groundwork is close to complete. If true, that belief could shape how long-term capital views XRP. He closed by encouraging viewers tracking early developments to stay informed as the story evolves and we get closer to 2026.
