In a move that has turned heads in both the crypto and traditional finance sectors, Southeast Asia’s largest bank, DBS, has placed an $11.3 billion valuation on Ripple. According to a post by Coin Bureau, this valuation comes ahead of what could be a 2026 initial public offering (IPO), as noted in the bank’s latest Crypto Digest. Ripple has often faced regulatory hurdles due to its use of XRP, especially in the U.S. This new valuation from DBS signals a possible shift in how major institutions view its long-term potential, and Coin Bureau believes Wall Street will follow suit. Regulatory Clarity and Institutional Support Market observers and analysts quickly picked up on the implications of this valuation. Many interpret DBS’s assessment not just as a financial endorsement, but as a sign of increasing regulatory clarity around Ripple and XRP. Participants in the crypto community noted that institutional narratives, along with ongoing legal developments, are aligning in Ripple’s favor. This latest move adds to growing speculation that Ripple may finally be approaching mainstream financial acceptance, especially with discussions about ETFs and large-scale investor interest. The valuation could be viewed as institutional recognition of Ripple’s foundational role in cross-border payments infrastructure and its expanding global footprint. XRP Community’s Reaction Reactions across the crypto community ranged from impressed to strategic. One user emphasized that such a move likely indicates that large financial institutions are watching XRP and Ripple, and this interest could extend to inclusion in future financial systems.

Some community members also believe Ripple is undervalued, as its escrowed XRP is worth over $76 billion. However, what’s more important is institutional trust , and this level of validation could trigger capital rotation from speculative assets into more established crypto-based infrastructure. IPO Speculation and Market Strategy For Ripple, a 2026 IPO would represent a major evolution in its public profile and investor access. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse revealed in early 2025 that there would be no IPO in 2025 , and the community is looking toward 2026 for this major step that could give XRP a notable boost. Ripple’s ecosystem has matured substantially over the past few years, with increasing adoption in international remittance corridors and partnerships with central banks for central bank digital currency (CBDC).
