Historical Context and Legal Breakthrough

  • In 2018, XRP hit $3.40 during the crypto bull run.
  • In 2021, despite another market rally, XRP only reached $1.90 due to its ongoing lawsuit with the U.S. SEC.
  • Now, following a partial legal victory and settlement with the SEC, XRP has removed a major overhang, unlocking fresh upside momentum.

Sector Rotation: XRP Takes the Lead

Over the past two weeks, Stellar (XLM) — another cross-border payment token — rallied over 110%, but its momentum has stalled. XRP has now taken the baton, driving the payments sector higher. Notably, Cardano (ADA) also jumped 10% today, signaling broader strength in utility-driven altcoins.
