Mastercard processes roughly 9.7 trillion dollars in transactions each year, and its growing engagement with blockchain settlement has renewed discussion around XRP’s potential role in global payments.

Analysts have indicated there are few hurdles left before the mass expansion of the token price at this stage.

When momentum builds, crossing the $20 mark is no longer considered speculative but inevitable.
