Popular community figure Chad Steingraber suggests that a major XRP price rally could be imminent, fueled by the anticipated passage of a key crypto regulation. In a recent post on X, Steingraber leaned on the long-standing “price before law” narrative within the XRP community, arguing that the token may already be preparing for a strong upward move. According to Steingraber, XRP has historically posted sharp gains in the lead-up to major regulatory and legal milestones, rather than waiting for formal confirmation. Consequently, he believes the market may already be positioning for the next rally, even as lawmakers continue to finalize new rules.
If lawmakers pass the bill, it would clearly define regulatory boundaries for crypto assets, potentially eliminating the uncertainty that has weighed on the sector for years. Against this backdrop, Steingraber argues that XRP may already be positioning for a rally as expectations around the bill’s passage continue to build. His optimism draws heavily from XRP’s historical reactions to regulatory and legal victories. Notably, XRP rallied aggressively during key moments in its prolonged legal battle with the U.S. SEC.
In 2025, growing optimism about a potential settlement with the SEC pushed XRP above $3 for the first time since 2018. The token later climbed to $3.65 in July 2025—nearly a month before the Ripple case was officially resolved. That episode reinforced the belief among supporters that XRP often ‘front-runs’ regulatory clarity by pricing in positive outcomes well ahead of formal decisions. With a major bill that could finally clarify the regulatory status of tokens like XRP nearing its final stages, Steingraber maintains that another significant rally could be just over the horizon.
