Standard Chartered projects XRP ETFs could draw $4 billion to $8 billion in inflows in their first year if the CLARITY Act passes, a significant increase from the current $1.44 billion mostly from retail investors. The $1.45 price level acts as a major sell wall, capping XRP's price due to break-even sellers from previous cycles. Institutional investors, currently sidelined due to legal uncertainties, would enter the market if the CLARITY Act legally confirms XRP's commodity status, providing the buying power needed to break this wall and potentially drive prices higher. The outcome depends on the legislation passing and institutional inflows arriving quickly, with scenarios ranging from a price drop to $0.80-$1.00 if it fails, to a rise up to $3.50 if all factors align by year-end.
