U.S. spot XRP ETFs post strongest inflow day in four months

Learn how the CLARITY Act could reshape U.S. crypto regulation, SEC/CFTC oversight, exchanges, tokens, DeFi, and investor risk.

Inflows into spot XRP ETFs have surpassed $25 million in a single day.

A new XRP market thesis is circulating ahead of the Senate markup of the CLARITY Act on Thursday, May 14, 2026, at 10:30 AM ET, with XRP community member and developer Vincent Van Code arguing that regulatory clarity could turn XRP Ledger liquidity from a speculative narrative into institutional market structure. The argument centers on whether legal safe harbor for digital assets would allow major banks and payment networks to use XRPL liquidity pools at production scale. In a post on X, Van Code described the upcoming markup, as a potential trigger for XRP’s institutional use case. He framed the legislation not merely as another policy milestone, but as the missing legal layer for large regulated financial institutions to engage more directly with on-chain settlement infrastructure.

This Thursday, May 14, 2026, the CLARITY Act Senate markup provides the final legal API for G-SIBs (Gl

The post Ripple Ex-CTO David Schwartz Just Revealed Which Crypto Made Him the Most Money appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ripple ex-CTO David Schwartz revealed that XRP generated more personal wealth for him than any other cryptocurrency, even though he has steadily reduced his digital asset exposure over time. Schwartz helped design the XRP Ledger before retiring from the chief technology officer role earlier this year. He shared the disclosure on X in response to a fan asking which token paid him the most. XRP Outperformed Bitcoin and Ethereum for Schwartz On X, Schwartz disclosed that he once held 26 million XRP. He also owned roughly 1,000 Bitcoin (BTC) and 40,000 Ethereum (ETH) tokens. He has cut each position sharply over the years.

The token trades near $1.46 today, ranking fourth by market value. The prolon

In a TradingView analysis published on May 11, technical analyst TradingShot argued that Micron is following a long-term chart structure similar to the company’s historic rally during the late 1980s and 1990s technology boom.  According to the analyst, the stock appears to be entering a temporary “pause phase” before another major breakout.

The post Ripple crypto Analysis: 3 Scenarios for XRP’s Pivot appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. With price leaning against resistance and volatility compressed, Ripple crypto sits at a pivotal spot where structure outweighs momentum. Bulls have the short-term initiative above the 20/50-day averages, yet the 200-day still governs the macro path. Thesis — XRP is leaning on the top of its recent range while the broader market sits in neutral. Price is comfortably above the 20/50-day averages but still well below the 200-day, which keeps the larger trend unresolved. With volatility compressed and Bitcoin dominance elevated, structure is trumping momentum; bulls hold the short-term initiative, but the higher-timeframe ceiling still rules. However, daily indicators show constructive pressure, yet price hasn’t reclaimed the daily pivot or punched through the upper band. That sets up a ‘prove it’ day for XRP—either expand higher on a clean reclaim of 1.47–1.48 or mean-revert back toward the

The post Why The U.S. Now Dominates Global LNG Markets appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. CAMERON, LA – FEBRUARY 10: In an aerial view, the Sabine Pass liquefied natural gas plant owned by Cheniere Energy is seen on February 10, 2025 in Cameron, Louisiana. China, the world’s largest importer of liquefied natural gas, has announced that it will be placing a 15% tariff on U.S. liquefied natural gas in retaliation for President Trump’s ruling to impose tariffs on Chinese commodities. (Footage by Brandon Bell/Getty Images) Getty Images For years, global LNG markets operated under a fairly comfortable assumption. Qatar would remain a stable supplier, the Middle East would continue functioning as the center of global LNG trade, and buyers in Europe and Asia could rely on long-term contracts to keep gas flowing. That assumption is now under pressure. Damage to energy infrastructure in the Middle East, rising geopolitical instability, and growing concerns about shipping security have injecte
