Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse’s positive comments on SEC Chair Paul Atkins mark a potential regulatory shift. XRP price predictions for April 18 are at 100% YES.
Garlinghouse’s endorsement of Atkins’ pro-innovation stance contrasts sharply with former SEC Chair Gary Gensler’s approach. This shift in tone points to a regulatory environment more favorable to Ripple. XRP price on April 15 and April 13-19 also sit at 100% YES, indicating broad optimism for XRP.
The odds are high, but actual trading volume is zero, with no face value reported in the last 24 hours. Traders appear confident in XRP’s outlook, though the lack of activity leaves room for volatility if significant trading resumes. The absence of trades may mean the market is waiting for more concrete developments.
Garlinghouse is a tier-1 source, which makes these comments harder to dismiss as noise. At a price of 22¢ per YES share, traders are betting on a 4.5x return if XRP hits bullish targets. That bet requires a continued positive regulatory environment under Atkins.
Keep an eye on developments from the Senate Banking Committee and any announcements from Ripple Labs. Either could provide the catalyst needed to drive actual market movement.
