XRP Price Prediction: XRP Holds $2.31 Before Memorial Day Volume Decline — Will Reduced Institutional Activity Spark Rally to $2.75?

XRP is holding at $2.31 as Memorial Day (Monday, May 26) approaches, down 1.55% in the last 24 hours and $1.49 billion in trading volume. While this price stagnation is due to broader market uncertainty, the potential for a post-holiday bounce is growing especially with Ripple’s recent foray into real estate tokenization in the UAE.

UAE’s Real Estate Tokenization Boosts XRPL; XRP Supported

Ripple’s XRP Ledger (XRPL) has been chosen by the Dubai Land Department (DLD) as the blockchain for its real estate tokenization project.

According to DLD’s senior executive Mahmoud AlBurai, over 3,000 investors have registered interest in the pilot, strong demand for tokenized property ownership.

Currently, participation is limited to Emirates cardholders who are official UAE residents.

Key points:

• Partnerships with Prypco Mint and Ctrl Alt to tokenize ownership deeds for government properties.
• Ripple’s $10M investment in tokenized US Treasury bills on XRPL via OpenEden.
• $5M stake in a tokenized money market fund by UK-based Abrdn last year.

This real-world asset (RWA) initiative is the first of its kind in the MENA region and strengthens XRPL’s case for institutional adoption.

Ripple’s payments service is already onboarding institutions, licensed by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA).

XRP/USD Technical Analysis: Descending Triangle in Focus

XRP price prediction seems bearish for now as on the 2-hour chart, Ripple is in a descending triangle, a pattern that often precedes breakouts. It’s hovering around horizontal support at $2.2856, with recent candlesticks (spinning tops and doji) indicating market indecision.

• 50-period EMA ($2.3600) and horizontal resistance at $2.3557 cap the upside.
• MACD histogram is flattening, bearish momentum is slowing.
• Targets: Break above $2.3600 could be $2.4098 and $2.4756.

Failure to hold $2.2856 could be $2.2440 or $2.1970. New traders should wait for a confirmed breakout above trendline resistance and EMA to be reclaimed before going long, with stops below $2.2440.

XRP Outlook: Will Lower Volume Spark a Rally?

With volume thinning out during holidays like Memorial Day, institutional activity tends to slow down—sometimes creating a perfect storm for a squeeze.

If XRP holds $2.31, a light market could be a quick bounce to $2.75. But with the SEC’s XRP stance still unclear and broader market uncertainty, be prepared for volatility.

BTC Bull Token Nears $7.33M Cap as 65% APY Staking Draws Interest

With XRP/USD steady at $2.31, attention is shifting to altcoins like BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL). So far, $6.33 million has been raised out of a $7.33 million cap. The presale is closing in on its limit, next presale price jump closes in fast.

Bitcoin Rewards and Supply Reductions

BTC Bull Token operates with a built-in system: the higher Bitcoin’s price, the more BTC airdrops are distributed to token holders. Notably, presale participants receive priority. The system also features:

• Token burns every $50K BTC increase, reducing supply.
• Current token price at $0.00253 before the next bump.

This approach aligns token value with Bitcoin’s price moves while maintaining scarcity through programmed burns.

Staking Terms for Passive Returns

BTCBULL’s staking pool holds 1.62 billion tokens offering 65% APY, with:

• No lockup periods or fees.
• Full access to funds at any time.

This structure appeals to holders looking for yield without complex requirements or risk of illiquidity.

Momentum Before the Cap Fills

With just over $1 million remaining in the presale, buyers are positioning early. The token’s mechanics of Bitcoin-tied rewards, supply adjustments, and staking options are driving participation.

Key figures:

• USDT raised: $6,329,314.26 / $7,332,195
• Token price: $0.00253

BTCBULL offers a whopping ~65% APY on its Ethereum-based staking pool (currently holding 1.61B BTCBULL), with no lockups or withdrawal fees. That means passive yield — with full liquidity.
