Before now, the Bank of Russia introduced a project on cross-border transfer implementation. This project reportedly considered the use of the Ripple payment system. It was perceived as an excellent basis for the development of a system for cross-border settlements for the group. It is worth noting that XRP is known for its transaction speed and low costs. Hence, it seem like a viable system the bloc is considering to revolutionize its international payment goals.
This move to adopt the cryptocurrency may trigger a massive jump in the price of XRP. CEO & Founder of Cryptonairz, Robert Doyle (Crypto Sensei) believes that XRP’s price may reach $10,000 if BRICS countries adopt it widely. There is a general opinion that member countries in BRICS stands to gain so much from choosing XRP as their alternative to the United States dollars. The volatile currencies and developing economies of these nations are perceived as challenges that XRP could improve.
Ripple’s growing network of alliances with well-known financial institutions is also regarded as an advantage that the BRICS nation could leverage.
XRP Uses Cases Grows Exponentially
Generally, these partnerships are indicative of XRP’s growing use cases and recognition across several nations. With how much XRP has improved in the last few months, especially after Judge Analisa Torres ruled on July 13th that the crypto is not security, there are already discussions about the possibility of a XRP ETF.
Ever since the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) gave its nod to spot Bitcoin ETFs and recently to spot Ethereum ETFs, experts have begun to weigh in on the implementation of other crypto ETFs.
In an interview, CEO of Ripple, Brad Garlinghouse, talked about the launch of XRP ETF. He highlighted that the approval of Ethereum ETFs gives him confidence that XRP might also gain approved as well. Also, Ripple President Monica Long strongly supported an XRP ETF, stating that would make “a lot of sense,” given the current regulatory clarity surrounding XRP and Bitcoin in the U.S.
