Crypto analyst Steph is Crypto said in a Dec. 10 post on X that Ripple’s U.S. national bank license is now “imminent,” describing the move as seriously bullish for the company and its token XRP.

According to the same analysis, Ripple applied in July 2025 for a national bank charter from the OCC and a Federal Reserve master account that would let it operate as a federally regulated bank, offer deposits and custody, and give its RLUSD stablecoin regulatory parity with traditional bank money, potentially turning XRP into a trusted bridge asset for cross-border payments and institutional liquidity.

Market expert Vlad Anderson notes that XRP is currently retesting the $2 support zone, with trading volume jumping 77% and buyers defending levels around $2.02 to $2.08 while Bitcoin, Ether and Solana trade more softly, a pattern he frames as a “final squeeze” that often precedes sharp directional moves.

With XRP perched between key support near $2.02 and a possible drop toward the $1.85 to $1.90 range, traders are watching whether renewed buying interest and the prospect of a U.S. bank license can tip the balance toward a bullish breakout or if the market instead slips lower before any larger upside narrative takes hold.
