Main Idea
Analysts predict a realistic price target of $5 for XRP by early 2026, citing Ripple's progress in securing a U.S. banking license, the potential for XRP ETFs, and the early growth of Ripple's stablecoin RLUSD as key drivers.
Key Points
1. Ripple is applying for a U.S. banking license and a Federal Reserve master account, which could enable it to offer full banking services and support its stablecoin RLUSD.

4. Ripple's legal battle with the SEC is nearing resolution, with both parties agreeing to a $125 million settlement.
5. RLUSD, Ripple's stablecoin, is in its early phase with about 497 active wallets on Ethereum, but its growth could attract more institutional players.
