XRP Price Prediction as Ripple Brings Mexican Peso Stablecoin to XRPL Payment

Key Insights:

• Ripple and Bitso added MXNB to XRPL for regulated U.S.-Mexico payment settlements.
• MXNB and RLUSD will support enterprise liquidity on XRPL’s Permissioned DEX.
• XRP traded above $1.12 as small ETF inflows helped support its recovery.

Ripple has expanded its Latin America payments strategy by bringing Bitso’s Mexican peso-backed stablecoin, MXNB, to the XRP Ledger. The move adds a regulated peso-based settlement asset to Ripple’s enterprise payment network. XRP traded near $1.12 as traders watched new XRPL developments, ETF flows, and technical signals. The market now weighs Ripple’s payment expansion against weak whale activity and key price levels.

Ripple and Bitso Expand MXNB Settlement on XRPL

Ripple and Bitso have extended their partnership through the launch of MXNB on the XRP Ledger. MXNB is backed by the Mexican peso and is designed to support payment settlement, digital liquidity, and enterprise transactions across Latin America.

Ripple said MXNB will also connect with its Payments on Decentralized Exchange infrastructure. This gives approved businesses access to peso liquidity on blockchain-based rails, while adding another settlement option to Ripple’s cross-border payments network.

The stablecoin will sit alongside Ripple USD, known as RLUSD. Together, MXNB and RLUSD are expected to support regulated settlement between the United States and Mexico, two major payment corridors where demand for faster settlement remains active.

Ripple Managing Director for Latin America Silvio Pegado said the combination of RLUSD and MXNB on the XRPL Permissioned DEX helps create a regulated on-chain liquidity infrastructure for enterprise cross-border payments. The setup focuses on verified participants and compliance-focused liquidity access.

XRPL Builds Out Enterprise Payment Infrastructure

The launch places MXNB inside the XRPL Permissioned DEX, a trading environment designed for approved counterparties. Verified users can use the platform to access liquidity and settle transactions within a controlled trading environment.

Ripple and XRP Ledger developers have introduced several institutional-focused upgrades this year. Recent validator-approved updates strengthened the permissioned trading environment and expanded XRPL’s role in regulated financial activity.

XRPL adoption has also moved beyond traditional payments. Ripple recently introduced an AI Starter Kit to help developers build agent-based payment applications on the ledger. The network also added support for the X402 protocol, allowing AI agents to transact with XRP and RLUSD.

Mastercard has also connected Ripple to its broader AI payments push. Its Agent Pay for Machines network includes Ripple among more than 30 participating organizations and supports autonomous software agents under user-defined rules. Mastercard has also used RLUSD on XRPL for 24/7 settlement, adding another enterprise use case for Ripple’s stablecoin network.

XRP Price Prediction: Ripple Holds Near $1.12

XRP price traded above $1.12 on Thursday after mild inflows into related exchange-traded funds. Data showed nearly $1.2 million in inflows on Wednesday, following about $7.44 million on Tuesday.

The inflows showed cautious institutional demand, but retail activity remained weaker. Futures Open Interest stood near $2.41 billion, below levels seen in mid-May, when it moved above $3 billion. That drop showed fewer traders opening leveraged positions.

From a technical view, XRP still traded below major moving averages. The 50-day EMA stood near $1.30, while the 100-day and 200-day EMAs were around $1.40 and $1.61. These levels remain key resistance zones if buyers try to extend the rebound.

The Relative Strength Index hovered near 33, showing weak momentum but easing pressure from oversold conditions. A move above $1.26 could open the path toward $1.30, while failure to hold current support may bring $1.05 and $1.00 back into focus.

Whale Selling Keeps $0.90 Support in Focus

A TD Sequential buy signal appeared on XRP’s 3-day chart, according to Ali Charts. The indicator has often pointed to short rebounds when it appears on higher timeframes, with one to four candles of relief possible after market compression.

The signal does not confirm a sustained rally. On-chain data cited by Ali Charts showed that large-scale whale activity on the XRP network dropped by 57.3%. Active whales also reportedly sold about 60 million XRP over the past week.

That selling pressure limits the strength of the short-term bullish signal. Instead of absorbing supply, large holders reduced exposure while XRP attempted to recover from recent losses.

The monthly chart keeps attention on the $0.90 zone. That level sits near a long-term rising trendline that has acted as support for several years.
