A new investor note from DBS Bank has elevated market attention on Ripple’s intention to pursue an initial public offering in 2026. In a research brief highlighted by crypto researcher SMQKE, it frames the listing as a notable development in the institutionalisation of digital asset firms, citing the company’s plan to access public markets at a time when other major crypto players are preparing similar moves. DBS explains Ripple’s IPO plans in the context of a growing interest in crypto companies on the stock market. They point out that several big crypto firms have recently gone public and performed well, especially those connected to stablecoins and crypto exchanges. DBS BANK: RIPPLE PLANS TO IPO IN 2026 Ripple is the only company with a publicly traded native asset (XRP) directly positioned to capture the momentum crypto IPO. pic.twitter.com/2iln1VW5wU — SMQKE (@SMQKEDQG) November 4, 2025 DBS’s assessment underscores that Ripple’s approach differs from many peers because its corporate valuation and market strategy are closely connected to the on-chain dynamics of the cryptocurrency XRP. The bank highlights pre-IPO valuations of crypto firms as exceeding the benchmark set by a recent, high-profile IPO, noting that expectations for Ripple’s market capitalization are substantial given its existing exposure to retail and institutional payment corridors. DBS also points to growing regulatory clarity and licence approvals in key jurisdictions as enabling conditions for such IPOs. Market reaction and community perspectives Responses within the crypto community have ranged from cautious to enthusiastic. Commentators on the X platform referenced DBS’s research as credible confirmation rather than a mere rumor, given the bank’s standing in Asian capital markets. Some market participants emphasised that users transacting stablecoins or other tokens on the XRP Ledger contribute indirectly to token dynamics, with implications for supply and demand mechanics ahead of a public listing. Others framed the IPO as a potential watershed event, arguing that public ownership of a company closely linked to a widely traded digital token introduces new considerations for institutional investors and regulators.

DBS’s report situates the listing within that competitive and regulatory landscape, suggesting that the public markets are becoming a more accessible route for well-capitalised crypto businesses seeking broader investor bases. Regulatory Considerations If Ripple proceeds as indicated, regulators may be prompted to refine frameworks that address the interplay between corporate equity and associated token ecosystems. DBS’s publication reinforces the view that such a listing would mark a consequential step in crypto’s integration with conventional capital markets, meriting close attention from investors, exchanges, and policymakers.
