The XRP community is focusing on Asia as new analysis highlights Japan's potential entry into the market.
Japan's Impact on the Global XRP Market
According to market analyst Diana (@InvestWithD), Japan's entry could enhance South Korea's influence and create a surge in global liquidity. South Korea already has about 7 million active XRP users, making up 13% of the country’s total population.
Japan's Readiness for XRP
With a population of 125 million, Japan has the potential to create over 16 million XRP users. The expected daily trading volume from Japan may range from $1.1 billion to $1.4 billion, more than twice the amount in South Korea. Together, both countries could drive daily retail activity of $1.6 billion to $2.1 billion.
September Events and Their Impact on XRP Price
September is shaping up to be a critical month for XRP. Events like XRP Seoul 2025 and Korea Blockchain Week are expected to bring important announcements that could affect XRP’s price, potentially rising to $5-$10, or even $12-$22 with increased institutional demand.
The combination of South Korea's established market and potential adoption in Japan could signal a significant liquidity shift for XRP, impacting future token price dynamics.
