XRP price recovers above $1.40 with strong institutional support and aims for $2.00 in 2026

XRP is trading around $1.43 as of May 2026, showing recovery after the SEC lawsuit settlement in 2025. The removal of legal uncertainty has boosted institutional adoption, including spot XRP ETFs with $1.53 billion in assets and partnerships with major firms for on-chain settlements. Technical analysis shows key support at $1.35 and resistance at $1.45, with a potential rally to $2.00 possible by late 2026, driven by steady ETF inflows and bullish momentum. This makes XRP an attractive option for long-term investors looking for growth in the crypto market.
