Analysts are now weighing what it could mean if the<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/last-chance-to-your-sell-xrp\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <span>XRP price climbs to $3<\/span><\/a><span> on the back of Ripple\u2019s potential transformation from a crypto-focused firm into a top licensed bank.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"ftoc-heading-1\">The XRP Price If Ripple Becomes A Top Bank<\/h2>\n<p><span>In a recent X post, a crypto market commentator<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/investwithd\/status\/2033234818448986122?s=46\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <span>announced<\/span><\/a><span> that Ripple could become a top-20 bank globally by market capitalization if it secures<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ripple-bank-important-date-xrp\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <span>a full banking license<\/span><\/a><span>. She published a video interview featuring Teucrium CEO Paul Barron and the host of the Paul Barron Network.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>During the interview, Gilbertie laid out a scenario in which Ripple could<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ripple-global-footprint-expands\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <span>become one of the largest banks in the world<\/span><\/a><span> by simply maintaining its existing XRP holdings. He emphasized that if the crypto company obtains a full banking license, its<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ripple-burn-40-billion-xrp\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <span>40 million XRP held in escrow<\/span><\/a><span> could dramatically increase its balance sheet value and elevate its market position. By retaining the tokens, Ripple could automatically leverage them as a strategic asset in a regulated banking environment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Gilbertie also highlighted that if the crypto company becomes a licensed bank, it could propel the XRP price to $3, and from there, Ripple could be ranked among the top 20 banks globally by capitalization. The interview also explored the potential scaling if XRP reaches \u201cmultiples of $3.\u201d The Teucrium CEO emphasized that Ripple\u2019s valuation would expand in proportion to the cryptocurrency\u2019s price, potentially propelling it to the top as the world\u2019s leading bank.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The interview also addressed on-chain operations and traditional financial infrastructures such as ETFs. When Barron asked whether<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/first-leveraged-xrp-etf-launches-in-the-us\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <span>leveraged ETFs could ever be on-chain<\/span><\/a><span>, Sal confidently said yes, noting that all financial instruments will eventually operate on-chain. His response suggests a future in which traditional finance could be fully integrated with digital assets and blockchain technology.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"ftoc-heading-2\">Update On Ripple\u2019s Banking License Status<\/h2>\n<p><span>Ripple has continued to progress through regulatory pathways that would allow it to operate with bank-like authority in the US. The crypto company previously<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/conditional-approval-for-ripples\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <span>received conditional preliminary approval<\/span><\/a><span> from the United States Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) for<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ripple-charter-bank-license\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <span>a national trust bank charter.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span>This approval places Ripple alongside a handful of other crypto firms that have also taken steps toward becoming regulated banks under US law. While full approval has not yet been granted, Ripple continues to develop its payment rails through<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ripple-xrp-billions-in-acquisitions\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <span>acquisitions<\/span><\/a><span>, partnerships, and<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/inside-ripples-buying-and-selling-cycle-and-its-impact-on-xrp\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <span>share buybacks<\/span><\/a><span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>At the same time, XRP, the primary token supported by Ripple, is currently trading at $1.43 after rallying<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/xrp-holders-more-educated\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span> 14%<\/span><\/a> <span>this week to $1.6. Although it has given up most of its gains, analysts still maintain a bullish outlook for the cryptocurrency.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/YLEzuEeK\/\" alt=\"XRP\" width=\"2108\" height=\"1636\"><figcaption>XRP trading at $1.46 on the 1D chart | Source: XRPUSDT on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/YLEzuEeK\/\" target=\"_blank\">Tradingview.com<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Featured image from X, chart from Tradingview.com<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>",
