A notable development has occurred in the cryptocurrency market. XRP has surpassed Binance’s native token BNB by market capitalization, becoming the fourth-largest cryptocurrency.

At the time of writing, XRP’s market capitalization is around $93 billion, while BNB’s market capitalization is approximately $91 billion.

This surge comes particularly after Ripple’s recent steps to expand its global payment network.

Ripple has announced plans to apply for a payment license in Brazil to strengthen its presence in Latin America. The company also aims to obtain a Financial Services License in Australia. These steps are said to enable the establishment of an end-to-end payment platform in the region.

The company’s operations in Brazil are not new. Ripple has been gradually expanding its services in the country for years. Currently serving financial institutions such as Banco Genial and Braza Bank, the company handles same-day USD payments, cross-border transfers, and settlement transactions with its dollar-backed stablecoin, RLUSD.

The rise in XRP wasn’t limited to the spot price alone. According to CoinGlass data, open interest in XRP futures increased by 33% in the last two weeks, reaching $2.82 billion.

PEPE Holders Looking For The Next 100x Crypto Set Their Sights On Layer Brett Presale

The post PEPE Holders Looking For The Next 100x Crypto Set Their Sights On Layer Brett Presale appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 18 September 2025 | 01:13 The Shiba Inu price prediction has regained investor attention this month as meme coin traders shift strategies ahead of Q4. While SHIB and PEPE continue to dominate headlines, many early holders are now hunting for the next breakout. Layer Brett (LBRETT), a new Ethereum Layer 2 meme coin, is quickly emerging as a top contender. Shiba Inu price prediction: Ecosystem grows but limited short-term upside Shiba Inu (SHIB) is currently priced at $0.00001307, showing slow but steady performance this September. Despite the relatively quiet price action, SHIB’s long-term vision is continuing to take shape.

That said, analysts believe that short-term price action remains capped unless broader meme coin interest returns in full force. Resistance levels near $0.000015 remain tough to crack without major catalysts or a spike in retail enthusiasm. For now, Shiba Inu price predictions remain cautious, with most calling for gradual moves higher rather than a sudden breakout. Still, SHIB’s loyal community and expanding ecosystem keep it on the radar for long-term holders, especially those betting on its metaverse and DeFi ambitions to mature into stronger use cases by 2025. PEPE struggles to reclaim momentum after early hype PEPE exploded onto the meme coin scene in 2023 and gained massive traction with retail investors. However, the token’s parabolic rise was followed by a sharp correction. Currently priced around $0.00001087, PEPE still maintains a large following, but the lack of clear development or new utilities has left holders searching for alternatives with more potential. With many early PEPE investors now down from peak levels, attention has shifted to lower-cap meme coins that offer actual utility and early entry benefits. While PEPE may…
