Will XRP price surge continue?

As per Attorney James Filan, Coinbase, a cryptocurrency exchange has filed its Amicus Brief in the support of Ripple. The exchange has slammed the SEC over rulemaking for Digital assets in its fillings.

Coinbase mentioned that formal rulemaking has led to an unexpected enforcement action like this. It has created market uncertainty and massively hit U.S. trading platforms like Coinbase. It is difficult to compete with offshore platforms in jurisdictions where there is minimum regulatory risk.

It is good news for Ripple in the long running legal tussle with the SEC. As Coinbase was one of the first crypto exchanges to delist and halt trading in XRP after the commission took legal action against Ripple.

However, this update has helped the Ripples native token price to surge amid increased selling pressure. XRP prices have jumped by a whopping 16% to emerging as the most gained crypto in the last 24 hours. XRP is trading at an average price of $0.376, at the press time. Its 24 hour trading volume is up by 26% to stand at $2.3 billion.
