XRP strike options go live on Crypto.com with CFTC-regulated model

Important insights
- Crypto.com adds XRP to the strike options only for US users.
- XRP derivatives show increasing open interest and option volume.
- The charts of the analysts indicate a possible outbreak after market consolidation.
Crypto.com, the cryptocurrency exchange based in Singapore, has expanded its range of strike options by XRP and thus supplemented the growing list of supported digital assets for US users.
This development takes place at a time when the XRP-related activities in the global markets increase significantly and reflects the continuous expansion of the regulated derivative products of the stock exchange under the supervision of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
So far, Strike options have been limited to assets such as Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, Dogecoin, Cronos, Shiba Inu and Litecoin. Now user XRP can act in a short -term binary format. The platform enables dealers to make time -critical predictions, whether where XRP courses Close within a 20-minute window over or below a certain base price.
With a minimum position size of $ 10, the product enables fast market reactions, especially under volatile conditions. Users can also change their positions within the 20-minute cycle, which offers additional flexibility.
Us access grows because Crypto.com catches up with more jurisdiction
Strike options are currently available exclusively for users in selected countries in the USA. According to the announcement of the platform, another geographical expansion is considered via its official X account (formerly Twitter). However, Crypto.com has not announced a specific schedule for the introduction of the product in new markets.
The intake of XRP comes at a time when the token is increasingly active in real applications. An example of this is a large -scale initiative for the tokenization of real estate in Dubai, in which XRP played a role in the integration of digital assets for real estate transactions.
At the same time, new entry strategies are circulating among analysts that cause a broader speculative interest in the asset.
This wider market attention coincides with increased participation in XRP derivatives. Coinglass's data show a nuanced picture of the market mood. Although the total volume of the derivative trade has dropped by 2.75% to $ 3.02 billion, other key indicators reflect a different trend.
Speculative activities on the XRP derivative markets increase
The open interest in XRP rose by 3.10% to $ 4.79 billion, which indicates a persistent commitment of investors. It is even more important that the volume of the XRP options by 138.91% increase to $ 1.52 billion, while the open interest in options also climbed by 6.70% to $ 2.02 million. These movements indicate increasing security and speculation behavior, which can often be observed before increased market volatility.

The liquidation data support the view of an increased activity. Within a period of 24 hours, the liquidations amounted to a total of $ 2.42 million, of which $ 1.43 million in long positions and $ 996,240 were in short positions.
In shorter intervals, such as in the last hour, the market recorded $ 6,690 of short liquidations, while in the four-hour window 623.190 of liquidations, mostly long positions, were recorded. Within 12 hours, the liquidations amounted to a total of $ 1.47 million, with $ 1.38 million in long positions in comparison to only $ 85,160 in short positions.
These numbers indicate a shift in market dynamics, in which the long positioning comes to the fore despite mixed commercial volumes. The data illustrates increased commitment both in the case of upward and downward risks, which corresponds to the current speculative positioning.
XRP bullish chart patterns are created
In the meantime, the technical analysis of the crypto analyst Steph is crypto has attracted attention. The weekly chart of XRP/USDT, which was presented by the analyst, shows a potential “three-waves” parable pattern. According to this chart, the market has already had two upward phases and could enter into a last upward phase, which is called “Final Pump”.

This phase follows a phase of price consolidation, which can typically be observed from large outbreaks. At the same time, the open interest and derivative actions increase, which further supports the setup. Analysts often observe that such consolidation phases, especially after strong upward movements, are a harbing of increased market dynamics.
The predicted price target is over $ 25, which would mean almost ten times the course increase compared to the current course. For such a development, a high trade activity, a constant confidence of investors and a positive development from outside, such as a helpful judgment or commitment to important institutions, are probably required. The chart looks good, but it is still clear that things are unpredictable, which underlines that models should be carefully interpreted.
