XRP is down 1.80% on the day, but a New York Stock Exchange-listed fund has some big news, revealing that Ripple makes up the largest share of its holdings. The crypto is surpassing even assets tied to companies better known for their role in the crypto exchange industry.

C1 Fund Inc. (NYSE: CFND) disclosed its Q2 2026 holdings, revealing Ripple Labs as its largest position at 17.5% of net assets, edging out Kraken parent Payward at 16.9%. The fund’s net asset value landed at $6.49 per share, and its Ripple stake alone generated 150% in four months, a return the fund partly credits to Ripple’s own share repurchase program.

C1 also deployed $33.07 million across 11 private digital companies, adding Polymarket to the mix during the quarter. It is a signal that institutional appetite for crypto-adjacent private equity isn’t slowing down.

This TradFi validation lands against a choppier technical backdrop, and the two don’t always move in sync. Institutions buy conviction on a quarterly basis; traders react to candles by the hour.

Can XRP Price Hit $1.50 This Week Amid The Bullish Ripple News?

XRP sits at $1.36, off 1% intraday, with the broader 7-day trend still negative after a volatile stretch that saw the token swing between $1.33 and $1.39. ETF-linked inflows have kept a bid under price even as the token trades below key resistance.

Momentum readings are mixed-to-constructive. RSI near 61 and a MACD buy signal on daily charts, though shorter-term oscillators flash overbought. Traders are watching $1.34–$1.35 as the line in the sand. Hold that zone, and a push toward $1.42–$1.43 resistance opens the door to the $2 targets some analysts have floated for September. Lose it, and the setup risks a slide toward $1.25.

A scheduled Ripple escrow release adds a supply-side variable worth tracking this week, separate from the fund-flow narrative entirely.

Bitcoin Hyper Targets Early Mover Upside as XRP Tests Key Levels

XRP holders riding the C1 Fund headline have reason to feel validated. Institutional money doesn’t chase a dead asset. But a token already carrying a market cap in the tens of billions doesn’t offer the same asymmetric upside as something still in price discovery. This is where rotation logic kicks in for traders looking beyond the next resistance test.

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is building the first Bitcoin Layer 2 with native SVM integration with smart contract execution running faster than Solana itself, bridged to Bitcoin’s base-layer security through a decentralized canonical bridge.

The presale has raised $33 million so far, with tokens priced at $0.0136855 and a huge 35% staking rewards live for early participants. The pitch: Bitcoin’s trust layer, without the slow throughput and missing programmability that’s kept it sidelined from DeFi.

Research Bitcoin Hyper before the next raise milestone.
