Oliver Michel, CEO of Tokentus Investment AG, a leading German blockchain VC firm, made a bold prediction for XRP in a recent segment on German Der Aktionär TV.

According to BSCN (@BSCNews), Michel expects XRP could reach $7-$9 in a future bull cycle. The token was trading near $1.46 at the time of reporting.

Institutional Adoption Driving Growth

Michel tied his forecast to growing institutional adoption and increasing use of XRP for payments. He highlighted that demand from banks and financial institutions could drive substantial price growth. Despite the token’s large supply, Michel emphasized that institutional interest could push XRP toward his target range.

XRP’s network provides efficiency and liquidity advantages that appeal to institutions handling cross-border payments. By acting as a bridge currency, the digital asset reduces friction in currency exchanges. Michel suggested that these features make the token highly suitable for larger-scale adoption.

Ripple Partnerships Supporting Price Potential

Ripple’s growing network of partnerships also plays a significant role in rising institutional adoption. Banks and financial services integrating XRP into their systems could expand transactional volume. Increased volume, combined with broader institutional participation, could create upward pressure on the digital asset’s price.

Market observers see institutional involvement as a critical driver for cryptocurrencies with real-world utility. Michel’s forecast aligns with this perspective, highlighting XRP’s potential in the global financial ecosystem. Recent reports suggest that global institutions are testing XRP, and sustained institutional flows can have a big impact on price trends.

XRP’s Target Range

Michel’s $7-$9 target range matches a prediction recently made by German analysts. Instead of focusing on short-term volatility, he expects growing adoption to boost XRP. By linking his target to tangible adoption metrics rather than speculation, he framed the potential for higher prices around measurable developments in the payment sector.

Optimism about XRP is building outside traditional U.S.-based crypto circles. This international perspective may signal that interest in XRP is broadening beyond its current user base.

XRP has maintained strong utility in remittances and cross-border transactions. Michel’s outlook suggests that as these use cases scale, the token’s value could respond proportionally.

As more banks integrate XRP and transaction volumes rise, price targets like this become increasingly plausible. Michel’s forecast provides investors with a concrete reference point for assessing potential growth.

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

The post BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BlackRock is steering $185 billion worth of model portfolios deeper into US stocks and artificial intelligence. The decision came this week as the asset manager adjusted its entire model suite, increasing its equity allocation and dumping exposure to international developed markets. The firm now sits 2% overweight on stocks, after money moved between several of its biggest exchange-traded funds. This wasn’t a slow shuffle. Billions flowed across multiple ETFs on Tuesday as BlackRock executed the realignment. The iShares S&P 100 ETF (OEF) alone brought in $3.4 billion, the largest single-day haul in its history. The iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) collected $2.3 billion, while the iShares US Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF (DYNF) added nearly $2 billion. The rebalancing triggered swift inflows and outflows that realigned investor exposure on the back of performance data and macroeconomic outlooks. BlackRock raises equities on strong US earnings The model updates come as BlackRock backs the rally in American stocks, fueled by strong earnings and optimism around rate cuts. In an investment letter obtained by Bloomberg, the firm said US companies have delivered 11% earnings growth since the third quarter of 2024. Meanwhile, earnings across other developed markets barely touched 2%. That gap helped push the decision to drop international holdings in favor of American ones. Michael Gates, lead portfolio manager for BlackRock’s Target Allocation ETF model portfolio suite, said the US market is the only one showing consistency in sales growth, profit delivery, and revisions in analyst forecasts. “The US equity market continues to stand alone in terms of earnings delivery, sales growth and sustainable trends in analyst estimates and revisions,” Michael wrote. He added that non-US developed markets lagged far behind, especially when it came to sales. This week’s changes reflect that position. The move was made ahead of the Federal…
