XRP Outperforms Top Cryptos With 12% Rally Amid Market Recovery

• Market rebound follows procedural Senate vote on funding package amid U.S. government shutdown.
• XRP price boosted by anticipation of major spot ETF approvals from Grayscale, 21Shares, and Franklin Templeton.
• Recent ETF launches, including Rex Shares-Osprey XRPR ETF, have attracted strong institutional flows.

Ripple’s native token XRP (XRP) led gains among major tokens on Monday morning as the broader cryptocurrency market recovered amid signs that the U.S. government shutdown may finally be coming to an end. 

XRP’s price gained more than 12.6% in the last 24 hours, more than any of the other tokens in the top 10 by market capitalization, trading at around $2.54. Despite the massive uptick, the cryptocurrency’s price remains 30% below its record high of $3.65 seen in July, earlier this year. 

On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around XRP ticked higher in ‘bullish’ territory, accompanied by chatter at ‘high’ levels, over the past day. Meanwhile. Bitcoin (BTC) was trading at around $105,800 with retail sentiment also trending in ‘bullish’ territory amid ‘high’ levels of chatter. Bitcoin’s price rose more than 2% in the last 24 hours, still 16% below its record high of more than $126,000 seen in October.

U.S. Shutdown May End Soon

The broader crypto and equity markets gained after the Senate approved a procedural vote on a funding package Sunday. The legislation, if finalized, would provide full-year funding for food aid, farm and veterans programs, and congressional operations, while extending funding for most federal departments through January 30, 2026.

The Senate has yet to provide final sign-off, but the development signals that the vote may pass later this week, easing uncertainty that weighed on risk assets during the extended government shutdown.

ETF Developments Drive XRP Momentum

XRP’s recent rally is fueled in part by expectations of several spot ETF approvals. Major issuers such as Grayscale, 21Shares, and Franklin Templeton, are preparing to launch XRP ETFs, which could significantly increase institutional involvement in the token.

Recent ETF launches have already drawn strong investor interest. The Rex Shares-Osprey XRPR ETF (XRPR) recorded $38 million in initial trade volume on its first day. Meanwhile, ProShares Ultra XRP (UXRP) and Teucrium XRP ETF (XXRP) have attracted institutional flows, creating regulated channels for investment and bolstering XRP’s price support.

Over the past six months, XRP climbed from around $0.85 to roughly $2.29, largely on ETF speculation. The token peaked in July 2025, around the time of major institutional and ETF-related announcements. It continues to hold above $2, signaling sustained support.
