XRP’s price has recently gained attention from the crypto community, surpassing $0.61. Comments from Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse have raised expectations that the cryptocurrency may experience a rally similar to that of 2017, when XRP reached its all-time high of $3.84. Additionally, favorable market trends, the potential approval of an XRP ETF, and clear regulations in the U.S. are fueling excitement for this rally.
Comments from the Ripple CEO
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has evaluated the impact of elections on cryptocurrencies and the positioning of XRP. He acknowledged that six years ago, XRP was the “second most valuable digital asset” and has undergone numerous advancements since then. He emphasized that the SEC’s aggressive stance against crypto, Ripple’s ongoing SEC case, and other factors could influence the price of XRP.
Market experts anticipate the implementation of clear regulations for crypto assets following Donald Trump’s election victory. Moreover, Trump’s success has raised expectations of SEC Chairman Gary Gensler stepping down from his position. News of the Chairman’s resignation would create a positive atmosphere in the markets, as many perceive him as a regulator opposed to crypto.
Future of XRP Price
XRP’s price has reached $0.59 with a 0.4% increase, and trading volume has surged by nearly 100% to $4.32 billion. According to CoinGlass data, open positions have decreased by 1% to $890.81 million.
Market observers believe that if XRP breaks its previous selling pattern and reaches $0.6649, maintaining a level above this could propel the cryptocurrency towards the $1 mark in a short period of time. Positive developments within the Ripple community and potential regulatory support could strengthen XRP’s market position.
