YoungHoon Kim, officially recognized as the world’s highest IQ holder with a score of 276, has announced that he is investing in XRP. Known for advising multiple crypto projects and mentoring, Kim shared his decision on social media, giving rise to speculation that he sees real potential in the digital asset.

The decision comes on a day when XRP has been made available on Solana, which opens doors for cross-chain applications. While he has recently focused on XRP, he also commented on Bitcoin, predicting it could reach $100,000 within a week from December 10 and potentially hit $300,000 early next year. 

His statements have drawn attention in both the intellectual and crypto communities, with experts interpreting his involvement as a strong endorsement for XRP and Bitcoin.

XRP Price Analysis: Breakout Coming?

XRP’s weekly chart shows it is still influenced by a larger bearish divergence confirmed months ago. Around July and August, analysts warned that a multi-month pullback was likely—and it has largely played out. 

The support zone now sits between $1.80 and $2.00. A weekly close below this area, especially if XRP fails to recover above it, could trigger a major bearish move reminiscent of the 2021–2022 bear market.

In the short term, XRP has been trading sideways with minor pullbacks. Immediate support is around $2.00 to $2.05, with further short-term support near $1.94. On the larger time frame, $1.80 is the critical level that could hold the price.

Resistance for XRP lies near $2.12 and $2.20. Any short-term bounce could see XRP testing these levels. Additionally, movements in Bitcoin may influence XRP’s trajectory; a Bitcoin breakout could provide temporary bullish momentum for XRP and other major altcoins.

UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach

The post UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The UK and US are reportedly preparing to deepen cooperation on digital assets, with Britain looking to copy the Trump administration’s crypto-friendly stance in a bid to boost innovation.  UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discussed on Tuesday how the two nations could strengthen their coordination on crypto, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.  The discussions also involved representatives from crypto companies, including Coinbase, Circle Internet Group and Ripple, with executives from the Bank of America, Barclays and Citi also attending, according to the report. The agreement was made “last-minute” after crypto advocacy groups urged the UK government on Thursday to adopt a more open stance toward the industry, claiming its cautious approach to the sector has left the country lagging in innovation and policy.  Source: Rachel Reeves Deal to include stablecoins, look to unlock adoption Any deal between the countries is likely to include stablecoins, the Financial Times reported, an area of crypto that US President Donald Trump made a policy priority and in which his family has significant business interests. The Financial Times reported on Monday that UK crypto advocacy groups also slammed the Bank of England’s proposal to limit individual stablecoin holdings to between 10,000 British pounds ($13,650) and 20,000 pounds ($27,300), claiming it would be difficult and expensive to implement. UK banks appear to have slowed adoption too, with around 40% of 2,000 recently surveyed crypto investors saying that their banks had either blocked or delayed a payment to a crypto provider.  Many of these actions have been linked to concerns over volatility, fraud and scams. The UK has made some progress on crypto regulation recently, proposing a framework in May that would see crypto exchanges, dealers, and agents treated similarly to traditional finance firms, with…
