Despite facing strong selling pressure, analysts are bullish about the XRP price bouncing back and setting up for the next stage of price rally. In a market analysis update, prominent crypto analyst XRP Whale shares insights, predicting a substantial price pump for XRP in the near term.

Moreover, on a popular YouTube Channel ‘Discover Crypto’ the analyst has given a 10x price prediction for XRP. 
At the forefront of these positive developments is the upcoming resolution of the <a href="https://coingape.com/xrp-lawsuit-ripple-sends-letter-to-judge-netburn-over-secs-factual-mischaracterization/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">legal dispute</a> between Ripple and the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Referring to the SEC case as a “Black Cloud,” the analyst anticipates that settling this legal matter will eliminate uncertainties in the market. 
The second and third catalysts emphasize on the importance of legal clarity post-settlement and the potential for a Ripple initial public offering (IPO). However, note that Ripple CEO Brad Garlinhouse has <a href="https://coingape.com/ripple-brad-garlinghouse-cancel-us-ipo-plan-what-next/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">canceled</a> the plans for a US IPO earlier this month. The analyst contends that achieving legal certainty will encourage multiple exchanges to reintroduce XRP, thereby leading to a similar impact of the Coinbase IPO on BTC back in 2021. 
The fourth catalyst revolves around the anticipation of cryptocurrency legislation, which could potentially trigger an XRP rally. The analyst suggests that the entire crypto industry stands to benefit from regulatory clarity, with XRP positioned as a key candidate for substantial gains once comprehensive legislation is enacted.
