XRP pushed to roughly $1.45 this week after the Bank for International Settlements published a proof-of-concept using the XRP Ledger to anchor official statistics on-chain, per a working paper released Friday. The move landed alongside Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse's public campaign for the CLARITY Act ahead of a Sept 15 Senate vote, and a fresh record in agentic XRP and RLUSD transactions closing in on 4 million. The setup is the strongest institutional backdrop XRP has had this cycle, and it's arriving into a market that just repriced Fed cuts.
XRP is trading around $1.45, up more than 6% on the week, after the Bank for International Settlements published a proof-of-concept paper testing the XRP Ledger as a substrate for verifying official statistics on-chain. CryptoPotato and ZyCrypto both flagged the paper on Friday. The BIS didn't endorse XRP the asset, and it's worth being precise about that. It tested XRPL as a public ledger capable of anchoring cryptographic proofs of national accounts data. That's a narrow claim.
