XRP has shown remarkable growth since late 2024, reaching its highest levels since 2018. Currently trading at $2.41, the digital asset has experienced a 17% increase in 2025 alone. Market optimism is now centered on January 20, a day that could prove transformative for XRP and the broader cryptocurrency sector.
Amelie (@_Crypto_Barbie), a prominent crypto influencer, has sparked widespread discussion with her bold prediction for XRP. “These could be your last days to fill up your XRP pocket in this price range,” she posted on X, referring to the asset’s recent surge and potential for new all-time highs as January 20 approaches.
Call me crazy, but I believe this is the calm before the storm 🌪️
Soon we will no longer see #XRP in the $2 range, I believe we are on the way to a new all-time high 📈
On January 20th, Trump will be sworn in & Gensler will leave the SEC

What’s Happening On January 20?
Donald Trump, the pro-crypto U.S. president-elect, will officially take office on January 20. Gary Gensler, the current Chair of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), will resign on the same day.
Trump’s administration is expected to introduce significant changes to cryptocurrency regulations, as Paul Atkins, a crypto-friendly figure, has been nominated to succeed Gensler.
XRP has benefited from growing investor confidence following Donald Trump’s victory in late 2024. Market participants believe that with Trump’s administration, ongoing lawsuits against Ripple and other non-fraud cryptocurrency projects may be resolved more favorably.
Amelie believes the current phase is the calm before the storm, and is convinced that this will be the last time XRP sells for around $2.

Optimism About XRP’s Future
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has also expressed optimism about XRP’s future, emphasizing the positive momentum around the asset.
In a New Year message to the XRP Army, he revealed plans to focus on momentum and real-world utility, and this focus could significantly increase XRP’s adoption.
2025 could be a landmark year for Ripple and its ecosystem. XRP’s resurgence since the start of the year has bolstered this confidence further.
While it has not matched the 300% surge it experienced in November, its ability to maintain the $2 level and outperform other top cryptocurrencies has garnered significant attention.
XRP is entering 2025 with strong momentum and significant market enthusiasm. The upcoming transition of power in the U.S. government is expected to bring favorable changes for the cryptocurrency industry, potentially driving XRP’s price up.
Garlinghouse recently affirmed the 2025 Donald Trump bull run for the crypto market, and with January 20 on the horizon, the market could see a major shift, climbing to new heights in 2025.
