Crypto’s Price Surges

Riding the wave of a promising price of $0.523726 on CoinGecko, Ripple’s XRP cryptocurrency has generated excitement with a remarkable 24-hour surge of 6.3% and an impressive seven-day surge of 12.7%.  The surge in XRP’s value can be attributed to a series of bullish market indicators that have reignited optimism among traders.

However, the surge in price is not the only aspect driving enthusiasm around XRP. The network activity of the XRP Network has also reached unprecedented levels.

XRP Gains, BTC, ETH Down

While a potential win for Ripple in the ongoing lawsuit against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) may have played a role in this breakout move, it is worth noting that the crypto market experienced a sharp decline in Asia hours on May 31.

The global crypto market cap decreased by 1.37% to $1.14 trillion, with top cryptocurrencies Bitcoin and Ethereum tumbling 2% each. This market selloff was driven by factors such as long liquidation and macro fear.
