With open interest lurking below $4 billion, bull traders are eyeing a potential retest of the $3 territory.<\/p>\n<h2>Ripple (XRP) Climbs 7% as SEC Acknowledges ETF Application for XRP and DOGE Spot ETF<\/h2>\n<p>Ripple (XRP) has been riding a strong uptrend in recent months, fueled by shifting regulatory sentiment following a change in the U.S. presidential administration. After enduring a prolonged legal battle under the Biden administration, Donald Trump\u2019s election victory has injected fresh optimism into the market. His campaign promises to ease crypto regulations have strengthened investor confidence in XRP and the broader altcoin market.<\/p>\n<p>That bullish sentiment intensified on Friday as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) acknowledged Grayscale\u2019s filings for XRP and Dogecoin spot ETFs. This move, though procedural, signals a possible shift in regulatory attitude towards altcoin-based exchange-traded funds, analysts say.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_239060\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-239060\" style=\"width: 2906px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-239060\" src=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Screen-Shot-2025-02-14-at-11.29.01-PM.png\" alt=\"Ripple (XRP) Price Action | Feb 14 2025\" width=\"2906\" height=\"1380\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-239060\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ripple (XRP) Price Action | Feb 14 2025<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s a good sign in the case of these altcoins, which in the past have been told to withdraw right after filing. This bumps up slightly our already pretty good odds of approval,\u201d Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Eric Balchunas said on X (formerly Twitter).<\/p>\n<p>Under former SEC Chair <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/former-us-sec-chair-gary-gensler-appointed-professor-at-mit-sloan\/\">Gary Gensler<\/a>, the agency swiftly dismissed similar filings, citing concerns over market integrity. However, the latest acknowledgment suggests a changing landscape, with many traders interpreting it as a precursor to broader altcoin ETF acceptance in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>The news propelled <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/price\/xrp\/\">Ripple price<\/a> into a 7% intraday rally, pushing its market capitalization to $157.8 billion. The token now hovers near a critical resistance level, with bullish momentum sustaining hopes for a continued uptrend.<\/p>\n<h2>XRP Open Interest Flows Signal More Gains Ahead<\/h2>\n<p>Despite the 7% rally in the spot market, derivative market trends indicate further upside potential. XRP\u2019s open interest has been steadily climbing, suggesting that leveraged traders are positioning for more gains.<\/p>\n<p>According to data from <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/Coinglass.com\">Coinglass<\/a>, XRP open interest has surged from $3.5 billion to $3.8 billion between Feb. 11 and Feb. 13. This represents an 8% increase since the beginning of the week, highlighting growing investor confidence.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_239062\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-239062\" style=\"width: 2318px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-239062\" src=\"image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" alt=\"Ripple (XRP) Open Interest\u00a0\" width=\"2318\" height=\"656\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Screen-Shot-2025-02-14-at-11.41.19-PM.png 2318w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Screen-Shot-2025-02-14-at-11.41.19-PM-300x85.png 300w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Screen-Shot-2025-02-14-at-11.41.19-PM-1224x346.png 1224w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Screen-Shot-2025-02-14-at-11.41.19-PM-768x217.png 768w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Screen-Shot-2025-02-14-at-11.41.19-PM-1536x435.png 1536w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Screen-Shot-2025-02-14-at-11.41.19-PM-2048x580.png 2048w, https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Screen-Shot-2025-02-14-at-11.41.19-PM-150x42.png 150w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 2318px) 100vw, 2318px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Screen-Shot-2025-02-14-at-11.41.19-PM.png\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-239062\" src=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Screen-Shot-2025-02-14-at-11.41.19-PM.png\" alt=\"Ripple (XRP) Open Interest\u00a0\" width=\"2318\" height=\"656\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-239062\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ripple (XRP) Open Interest<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>A rising open interest typically signals fresh capital inflows into the market, reinforcing the ongoing bullish trend.

Following the breakout, XRP rallied 20% in four days, a sign of strengthening bullish sentiment.

The bearish crossover seen earlier resulted in fading selling pressure, but the histogram has begun contracting, indicating possible bullish divergence. A fresh crossover of the MACD line above the signal line would validate further upside, likely sending XRP toward its $3 target. However, failure to sustain support above $2.50 could invite renewed selling pressure, retesting $1.78 as a critical support level. The coming sessions will determine whether bulls have the strength to reclaim higher ground or if bears will force another correction.<\/p>\n<section class=\"accordion-content mt-4\" id=\"faq\">\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 h3 fw7\">Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)<\/h2>\n<div class=\"accordion-item\">\n<div class=\"faq-item-content\">\n<p>\n                            \tXRP is consolidating above $2.70 after a bullish breakout.
