XRP price analysts project $10 next, ‘optimistic’ target of $20

PETALING JAYA, Malaysia, April 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In a bold move set to redefine the intersection of luxury and finance, KSGEMS has officially launched its native token, $KSGEMS, on two major centralized exchanges: XT.com and LBank. Backed by real-world, investment-grade gemstones and powered by blockchain, KSGEMS is opening the vault on a market traditionally reserved for the ultra-wealthy; essentially giving everyday investors a chance to own a piece of rare, insured, and appreciating assets.

A Rare Opportunity in a Timeless Market

For centuries, gemstones have been coveted for their unmatched rarity, beauty, and enduring value. Yet, access to these prized assets has remained firmly in the grasp of high-net-worth individuals and institutions — until the dawn of KSGEMS arrived.

KSGEMS is committed towards democratizing gemstone investing, offering a blockchain-powered platform that enables fractional ownership of insured, investment-grade gemstones through its native token. Founded by a 20-year gemstone industry veteran, the project is built on deep market expertise and long-standing relationships with buyers across the globe.

Every gemstone listed on the platform is insured by industry giants like Tokio Marine while pledged to UBB Trustees for safekeeping, offering unparalleled trust, security, and transparency to investors.

Tokenomics Built for Value and Luxury

At the heart of the ecosystem lies the $KSGEMS utility token, carefully engineered to fuel platform activity while maximizing value for holders. The token’s design supports a scarcity-driven, utility-rich economic model that encourages participation and rewards loyalty.

With a fixed supply of 35 million tokens, scarcity is built-in from the start. Holders are able to stake their tokens to earn daily points, which determine their share in profit distributions from gemstone auctions, forming a system that directly rewards active, long-term participation. The more you stake, the more you earn!

$KSGEMS Token Now Trading on XT.com and LBank

With listings now live on XT.com and LBank, KSGEMS is entering a high-growth phase. These key listings mark a pivotal moment in the project’s roadmap, unlocking global liquidity and accelerating community expansion.

By making the $KSGEMS token widely accessible, the project is now positioned for mass adoption in both traditional and crypto investor circles.

A Platform with Purpose and Movement

“KSGEMS isn’t just about launching a token — it’s about changing the way the world invests in real assets,” said the project’s founder, Dato Chng. “We’re bridging luxury with blockchain to make gemstone ownership transparent, accessible, and rewarding.”

Whether you're a seasoned crypto investor or a newcomer seeking to diversify into tangible, appreciating assets, KSGEMS offers a gateway to the luxury market with real value and real-world backing. Visit ksgems.io to begin your journey into tokenized luxury today!

A well-known cryptocurrency commentator thinks Ethereum is poised to reach new all-time highs, potentially setting off large gains for other smaller cryptocurrencies.

The analyst, Alex Becker, shared his expert analysis on these points in a recent livestream where he was talking about Ethereum’s price action and what that may portend for the wider market.

Ethereum Displays Signs Of Recovery

Ethereum has risen nearly 5% in the past 24 hours, trading at $1,675, which is a 10% rise in the past week. The second-largest cryptocurrency recovered strongly after touching a multi-year low of $1,380 recently.

The recovery has been very rapid, with Ethereum rising almost 20% in a five-day timeframe. In spite of this rise, current prices still indicate a steep 50% fall from where Ethereum had been trading at the start of 2025.

Analyst Asserts 90% Probability Of Shattering Past Records

The cryptocurrency also has a way to go before it hits its all-time high of $4,890, which is around 60% lower than the peak. Ethereum would have to more than double its current price to hit its previous record.

Becker voiced strong optimism regarding Ethereum’s future, saying there’s a “90% chance” it will break its prior record high. He even dared viewers to come back in three years and ridicule him if his prediction fails to materialize.

The analyst is optimistic in part due to what he perceives as widespread negativity in regards to Ethereum, with most investors writing it off as “dead.”

However, Becker is going the other direction, indicating the cryptocurrency is overvalued and offers a good buying opportunity for those who had the willingness to accept the risks.

Possible Ripple Effect On Other Cryptocurrencies

According to Becker, an Ethereum “comeback” would have profound implications on other leading cryptocurrencies. He believes coins positioned just below Ethereum to experience explosive growth in case his expectations come to fruition.

The analyst outlined specific cryptocurrencies he thinks will gain, such as Cardano (ADA), XRP, Dogecoin (DOGE), SUI, Avalanche (AVAX), and Solana (SOL).

Though stressing the risks involved with cryptocurrency investing, Becker recommended such coins could be worth holding by long-term investors willing to deal with high-risk assets.

Price Targets And Growth Projections

Becker drew a number of scenarios for growth in cryptocurrencies. For Ethereum, he predicted that a four-fold ROI on present levels can happen, and prices can possibly touch as much as $10,000 under a highly optimistic scenario.

The analyst was even more optimistic about XRP, indicating that it could beat Ethereum by 25%-50% if it starts to close the market capitalization gap between the two cryptocurrencies.

Even with his positive view, Becker admitted that investing in cryptocurrencies is still very risky. He cautioned that in the worst-case scenario, Ethereum can fall to $500, which is a 50% decline from current prices for investors.

New Partnership Debuts America-First Themed Investment Vehicles

SARASOTA, Fla., April 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Trump Media and Technology Group Corp. (Nasdaq, NYSE Texas: DJT) ("TMTG" or "the Company"), operator of the social media platform Truth Social, the streaming platform Truth+, and the FinTech brand Truth.Fi, along with Yorkville America Equities, an America-First asset management firm, and Index Technologies Group (ITG), an originator and provider of thematic investment solutions, today announced that the three firms have created a strategic partnership and launched a new suite of Truth Social-branded Separately Managed Accounts (“SMAs”). These investment strategies offer investors access to curated, thematic investment strategies rooted in American values and priorities.

The initial lineup of SMA strategies includes:

• Faith & Values
• Liberty & Security
• Energy Independence
• Made in America

TMTG CEO and Chairman Devin Nunes said, "We’re excited to advance our financial services strategy in conjunction with our new partnership. We’re moving forward with a series of America First investment products that meet investors’ demand to support a wide range of outstanding, non-woke, and innovative companies across key sectors of the U.S. economy.”

“At a time when the foundations of American prosperity are shifting, it’s critical that our investment strategies reflect the values that define us,” said Jon DuPrau, Managing Partner at ITG. “Made in America is more than just a theme- it’s a declaration of support for businesses essential to our economy, national security, and enduring freedoms. These strategies empower investors to align their portfolios with patriotic and ethical convictions.”

Each strategy is constructed using a proprietary, data-driven framework that combines financial performance with our proprietary values-based metrics. Yorkville America Equities and ITG apply advanced algorithms to score and rank companies within each theme, identifying leaders in alignment with the strategy’s mission. Portfolios will be rebalanced quarterly to reflect market dynamics and maintain alignment with thematic goals.

The SMAs will complement a slate of ETFs planned to launch later this year through a partnership between TMTG and Crypto.com. The ETFs and SMAs, both of which TMTG is planning to invest in via its own cash reserves, are part of a TMTG financial services and FinTech strategy using up to $250 million to be custodied by Charles Schwab.

Canada has become the first country to launch a Solana spot ETF with staking. The Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) has approved four asset managers to offer the new spot Solana: Purpose, Evolve, CI, and 3iQ. The Solana ETF will invest in physical $SOL long-term and stake them to earn more rewards. This will result in better returns than Ether staking.

Read on to discover how this development could affect the larger crypto market. We’ll also talk about the Solaxy presale and how it’s at the center of Solana’s potential rise.

The Heating ETF Race

The SEC approved a Bitcoin-pegged ETF in the US back in January 2024. However, it’s still mulling over a staking-enabled ETF, and Grayscale’s proposal to introduce staking in its spot ETH ETFs is on hold.

Canada has always been a step ahead of the US in this aspect. For instance, it launched its first Bitcoin ETF back in 2021.

But it’s likely only a matter of time before the US follows suit. Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart says that it may happen as soon as the end of 2025.

A lot of this development can be credited to the pro-crypto Trump administration. The president’s open support for crypto, backed by increasingly relaxed legislation, promises to propel crypto to new heights.

The global ETF race is now heating up, with multiple applications pending with regulators.

For example, the SEC is sitting on multiple applications for ETFs backed by different cryptocurrencies, such as Litecoin, XRP, Solana, and more. Hong Kong and Australia have also also launched their own crypto ETFs.

Solana’s Price Showing Strength

Besides the ETF buzz, Solana has also shown some technical strength over the last month.

$SOL gained over 30% last week and is now trading at $133. Although still far from the $300 mark, a positive mini-rally has investors hopeful. The SOL/ETH pair has also rallied over 45% since the last week of February. It surged 25% in April alone and is currently trading at around 0.08012, close to its all-time high.

The growing strength of $SOL over $ETH shows that it may outperform the latter in the coming weeks, which is exactly what the OSC thinks.
