Presently, XRP joins oil and gold as a major commodity just as XRP price nears completing wave 4 pattern.

Most recently, XRP has been gaining a lot of attention as the asset just joined oil and gold as a major commodity asset. According to several sources, as we can see in the post above, recent statements made by the SEC and CFTC have been interpreted as Ripple’s token being deemed a digital commodity in the eyes of the US regulators. This comes as no surprise since XRP won the lawsuit against the SEC.

Presently, it’s not XRP that’s the only asset to have claimed commodity status based on recent communications. In fact, the likes of LINK and ALGO have also made similar claims. One response states that XRP has officially entered the post-lawsuit era, where it is being classified as a digital commodity alongside gold and oil. This opens the floodgates for institutional ETFs, allowing Ripple to thrive.

Meanwhile, another response states that the classification of XRP as a digital commodity is not just a regulatory milestone, but rather that it is the recognition that the asset operates as infrastructure, not as a financial instrument based on third-party efforts. Alongside gold and oil, XRP can now be treated by banks and funds with the same rigor, but with a crucial difference: while gold is a static reserve, XRP is liquidity in motion, settling global transactions in seconds. The institutional door has been flung open.

As we can see from the post above, this reputed crypto expert says that XRP has completed wave 4 of the 3-year Elliott wave structure, meaning that it is reaching closer to pulling its wave 5 pump, which could propel the price of XRP to an impressive new ATH at the $8.5 price range. A short retracement is expected first, which could take the price of XRP to a target below $1, before the mighty surge up.
