Bitcoin’s market dominance is surging while XRP's falls due to an SEC lawsuit.
The market dominance of Bitcoin today hit 68.49%—its highest figure all year.
Meanwhile, XRP, the fourth biggest cryptocurrency by market cap, stood at 2.26% in terms of market dominance.
XRP’s market dominance hasn’t been that low since 2017, according to CoinMarketCap data. And just one month ago, its dominance was over 5%.
Market dominance refers to the percentage a coin’s market cap accounts for the entire cryptocurrency market. It tells you a lot about how well a cryptocurrency is doing because if its market dominance is surging, it means investors are pumping money into the coin—or pulling out their investments in other coins.
Bitcoin has always had the biggest market dominance, followed by Ethereum, XRP and Tether, Litecoin or Bitcoin Cash.
This year, Tether (USDT) has been battling XRP's market dominance. Now, following XRP’s dip, it stands in third place at 3.2%.
Tether, the US dollar-pegged stablecoin, today hit close to $17 billion in market capitalization. This means that (hopefully), there are about $17 billion real US dollars sitting in a vault somewhere that investors have exchanged for Tether. According to Tether’s website, there are 16,991,893,171 Tethers in circulation, each representing $1. Tether claims that it holds $148 million in its vaults that have not been turned into circulating Tethers. #crypto $btc differences 2017 and now 2017; Chec...
Part of the increase in USDT’s market dominance is down to this year’s DeFi explosion; the stablecoin is frequently used on DeFi applications. USDT is also the biggest cryptocurrency by trading volume.
XRP’s depressing dip is down to the legal mess the cryptocurrency is currently in.
Ripple has spent 8 years working tirelessly to build an incredible company transforming global payments. Our mission doesn’t stop! Here’s what I sent to employees yesterday + our lawyers’ reaction to today’s SEC filing. https://t.co/wGHW4hCW2T

Yesterday, the US Securities and Exchange Commission filed a $1.3 billion lawsuit against Ripple Labs, the company associated with XRP, alleging the company had raised that amount in unregistered securities offerings since 2013.
Since then, three exchanges have stopped trading the cryptocurrency and the token’s price dropped.
At the time of writing, XRP’s price was down 34% in the past 24 hours—at $0.318, according to CoinMarketCap.
Its market cap also dropped—by over 30%—from $21.1 billion to $14.5 billion.
Bitcoin is winning, though: the cryptocurrency’s market cap today is over $438 billion, an increase of over $6 billion since yesterday.

Ethereum is preparing for its Pectra upgrade, which aims to boost the network’s scalability and offer better staking flexibility, by launching a testnet on Monday codenamed Hoodi. This comes after two previous testnets, Holesky and Sepolia, encountered technical issues. If all goes to plan, it could hit mainnet as early as April 25. The second largest cryptocurrency’s price appears unmoved by this news. Over the past 24 hours, the Ethereum price has gained only 0.5% and is currently trading at j...
New research from the European Central Bank suggests that public awareness about plans for a digital euro has increased substantially—but this hasn't been matched by a rise in the number of consumers interested in using it. About 19,000 households across 11 EU countries took part in the study, which exposed one of the biggest roadblocks to adoption: Many of those polled are perfectly happy with the payment methods they already use. Participants shown a video explaining the key benefits of this c...
Cboe BZX Exchange has filed a proposed rule change with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on behalf of Inveso Galaxy to allow for in-kind creations and redemptions of shares for its spot Bitcoin ETF and Ethereum ETF. In-kind redemptions and creations allow for the direct exchange of the underlying assets of the ETF (Bitcoin or Ethereum) for ETF shares, bypassing the need for cash. This method eliminates the need for participants to sell the underlying crypto to create shares, red...
