Ripple picked up a fintech award. A new card lets you spend it&nbsp;without selling it. And a US crypto bill is closer to a vote than ever.Let's walk through all three. Then we'll check the price.<h3 id="span-span-style-font-size-16px-what-are-today-s-3-big-xrp-news-updates-span-span">What Are Today's 3 Big XRP News Updates?</h3>Ripple made <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/worlds-top-fintech-companies-2026/" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CNBC and Statista's</a> World's Top Fintech Companies 2026 list. This is the fourth year running for Ripple. The company shared the news on X on July 22.<img alt="Ripple Top Fintech company" src="https://d3iuzwoiyg9qa8.cloudfront.net/webadmin/storage/public/commonEditerImage/sLLvXMfwo5cOm1tvhJt7nTMVp1of2mJ89QUbow4Y.jpg" width="300" title="Ripple Top Fintech company">Source: <a href="https://x.com/Ripple/status/2079963646977843353" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">X Post</a>&nbsp;The list covers 500 firms across eight segments. Digital assets made up 40 of those spots, about 8% of the total. CNBC and Statista said blockchain is moving past hype and into real banking use, things like payments, custody, and tokenization.Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has pointed to a bigger prize behind this. He's talked about the roughly $16 trillion moved each year through slow, old-school correspondent banking, in a CNBC Interview. That's the market Ripple wants to disrupt.<h3 id="span-span-style-font-size-16px-a-new-card-lets-you-spend-xrp-without-selling-it-span-span">A New Card Lets You Spend XRP Without Selling It</h3>RedotPay just launched an altcoin-backed card, built on the XRP Ledger and running on the Visa network. This is real <a href="https://www.coingabbar.com/en/crypto-currency-news/xrp-news-xrp-price-rally-in-green-zone-etf-clarity-act-move" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP Ripple news</a> for anyone who holds the token long-term.<img alt="New XRP Card details" src="https://d3iuzwoiyg9qa8.cloudfront.net/webadmin/storage/public/commonEditerImage/EY3IsVkt9W5b3WQnudc0ipdNcMWvyDprRmP5bjh2.jpg" width="300" title="New XRP Card details">Source: <a href="https://x.com/xrpl_commons/status/2079857313876185280" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">X Account</a>Here's how it works. You pledge it&nbsp;as collateral at a 50% loan-to-value ratio. RedotPay settles the resulting credit line in RLUSD, Ripple's stablecoin, on the XRP Ledger. You spend anywhere Visa is accepted. Your altcoin&nbsp;stays untouched in your wallet.Odelia Torteman, Head of Digital Assets at XRPL Commons, discussed the launch with Taylor Bossung, RedotPay's Head of Corporate Affairs. RedotPay serves over 8 million users across more than 100 countries and processes about $12 billion in yearly payment volume. Stablecoin card transactions at the company have grown 80% so far this year.<h3 id="span-span-style-font-size-16px-clarity-act-news-where-does-the-bill-stand-now-span-span">Clarity Act News: Where Does the Bill Stand Now?</h3>The <a href="https://www.coingabbar.com/en/crypto-currency-news/clarity-act-news-today-new-crypto-bill-senate-vote-updates" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CLARITY Act</a>, formally H.R. 3633, would classify it as a commodity under US law. That single change could remove years of regulatory doubt around the token.Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and Coinbase's CEO have both pushed lawmakers to pass it. Garlinghouse has called it a consumer protection bill, one built on real anti-money-laundering and know-your-customer standards.<img alt="Brad Clarity act details" src="https://d3iuzwoiyg9qa8.cloudfront.net/webadmin/storage/public/commonEditerImage/Qs2aTDqrWBvTrt6KrOVYHNiAiKQXvU2htU3TkIPY.jpg" width="300" title="Brad Clarity act details">Source:&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/bgarlinghouse/status/2080017791470702751" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Brad Garlinghouse X</a>But the timeline has slipped. The bill missed a July 4 target. Senate Majority Leader John Thune has not yet set floor time. As of the most recent Clarity act update, no cloture motion has been filed, and the Senate has until August 7 before its recess. Republicans hold 53 seats, short of the 60 needed, so several Democratic votes are still required.<h3 id="span-span-style-font-size-16px-xrp-price-today-what-the-numbers-show-span-span">XRP Price Today: What the Numbers Show</h3>XRP Price today sits at $1.09 to $1.10, per CoinMarketCap, with a market cap near $68 billion. The token is up close to 1% over the past 24 hours. Weekly, it&nbsp;has traded in a fairly tight band.<img alt="XRP price today" src="https://d3iuzwoiyg9qa8.cloudfront.net/webadmin/storage/public/commonEditerImage/j11uU13GdGOTWon7LAKjcLARgoZYcK5uB6vSqRpM.jpg" width="300" title="XRP price today">Source: <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/xrp/" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinMarketCap Data</a>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.coinglass.com/currencies/XRP" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinGlass data shows</a> a calmer derivatives market right now. Futures liquidations over the past 24 hours totaled around $1.4 million, split between long and short positions. Open interest sits near $2.4 billion. That's a modest amount for a token this size, not a sign of panic in either direction.To be clear, price forecasts aren't guarantees. It could hold above $1.10, or it could slip if broader crypto sentiment turns. A Clarity Act delay or an amendment fight could just as easily cool momentum as help it.<h4>What Next for XRP?</h4>Three separate pieces are moving at once. <a href="https://www.coingabbar.com/en/crypto-blogs-details/ripple-partnerships-companies-using-ripple-2026" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ripple's brand keeps growing</a> through repeat recognition. Everyday utility is expanding through cards like RedotPay's. And regulation, the piece traders watch closest, is stuck in a narrow legislative window that closes in August.None of these guarantee a price move. Together, they show XRP News latest coverage isn't just hype. It's infrastructure and policy, both inching forward at the same time.CoinGabbar Analysis: Market analysts note that <a href="https://www.coingabbar.com/en/price-prediction/xrp-price-prediction-whales-buy-1-30-target" class="f-link" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP's price</a> has stayed range-bound even as Ripple's institutional footprint has expanded, suggesting the market is waiting on the Clarity Act outcome before repricing the asset. A bill passage before the August recess would remove a major legal overhang, according to analysts tracking the Senate calendar. A missed deadline, however, would likely push the debate into 2026's later legislative sessions, extending the uncertainty coin has traded under for years. Both outcomes remain live as of this writing.YMYL Disclaimer:This article is for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, legal, or trading advice.
