XRP Price Prediction: Mastercard RLUSD Deal Puts $3 in Reach as DigiTap No-KYC Crypto Card Is Live in Presale

XRP is trading around $1.38 after pulling back from its August rally, but the XRP price prediction is still drawing attention as Ripple's payments ecosystem moves deeper into mainstream finance. Mastercard has expanded stablecoin settlement support to include Ripple USD, or RLUSD, with the XRP Ledger among the supported blockchain networks.

DigiTap https://presale.digitap.app/ ($TAP) is targeting the same everyday-spending theme from a much earlier stage. $TAP remains priced at $0.0589 in Round 4, with more than $11.4 million raised and the beta app already available through the App Store and Google Play.

Mastercard Gives the XRP Ledger a Bigger Payments Narrative

Mastercard's stablecoin settlement expansion is broader than a single XRP transaction rail. The payments giant said RLUSD will be supported alongside regulated stablecoins such as USDC and PYUSD across several blockchains, including the XRP Ledger.

That follows the earlier Ripple, Mastercard, WebBank and Gemini collaboration exploring RLUSD settlement for fiat card transactions. Together, the developments put Ripple's stablecoin and XRPL infrastructure closer to payment workflows already familiar to large financial institutions.

For XRP traders, that is useful fundamental fuel. XRP has previously formed technical structures projecting toward roughly $3.10, while more recent trading has focused on reclaiming $1.50 and then $1.70 as the next steps in rebuilding upside momentum.

XRP Price Prediction Keeps $3 in the Longer-Term Conversation

At around $1.38, a move to $3 would require XRP to more than double from current levels. XRP has already shown it can move aggressively when liquidity, network activity and institutional narratives align.

Recent data also shows the XRP Ledger carrying more value. CoinDesk reported that tokenized assets on XRPL averaged billions of dollars during the second quarter, while average RLUSD balances rose sharply from a year earlier.

The Mastercard connection adds another recognizable name to that narrative. RLUSD settlement, ETF demand, and expanding XRPL activity now give bulls several catalysts to follow as the $3 conversation builds.

DigiTap Brings the Card Angle Into an Active Presale

DigiTap https://presale.digitap.app/ approaches payments from the consumer side. Its beta app combines crypto wallet functions, virtual cards, and payment tools, while the presale remains in Round 4 and more than 80% of the current stage has been sold.

The no-KYC feature applies to DigiTap's basic Wallet plan, which gives users crypto wallet access without identity verification. Its Virtual plan uses light KYC and adds virtual-card functionality, keeping the distinction clear while still offering a lower-friction route into the wider ecosystem.

Users can manage supported crypto assets and access spending tools from the same app. This gives DigiTap a retail-friendly proposition at $0.0589: the token sale is running alongside a financial product people can already download and use.

$TAP Adds Token Utility to the Spending Product

$TAP supports staking, cashback, fee discounts, rewards, and VIP benefits across the DigiTap ecosystem. DigiTap also allocates half of app fee profits to open-market $TAP buybacks and burns, linking growth in app activity with the native token economy.

The token contract has been independently audited by Coinsult https://app.coinsult.net/eth/0x4aa68b0d44da940583359ac56c93b1209bf97d08 and SolidProof. For retail comparing the two stories, XRP represents an established network gaining deeper payment connections, while DigiTap offers exposure to the crypto-card theme much earlier in its token lifecycle. Mastercard's RLUSD expansion shows how quickly blockchain payments are moving into mainstream financial infrastructure.

Why DigiTap Is Joining the XRP Payments Conversation

XRP's route back toward $3 is tied to renewed market strength and the continued expansion of XRPL's financial use cases. Mastercard supporting RLUSD settlement gives that payments thesis another institutional anchor.

DigiTap is building its own payments narrative while $TAP is still at $0.0589. With Round 4 advancing, more than $11.4 million raised and a downloadable beta app supporting its consumer proposition, DigiTap gives retail a different way to position around the growth of crypto payments before the token reaches the open market.
