XRP News

XRP is a cryptocurrency designed to facilitate transfers between financial institutions. Ripple, the project behind XRP, differs from both Bitcoin and Litecoin in several key aspects: it relies on sale as opposed to mining as a means of freeing up new currency, and its transaction speeds are of a different order of magnitude (nearly 1,000 transactions per second to Bitcoin’s 7 tps) . While the ideas behind XRP date back to 2004, the currency was created in 2012 by Jed Caleb and Chris Larsen.

    XRP Is Surging Again, Nearing All-Time High: Here's Why

    The price of XRP climbed above $3.00 on Monday, hitting a six-month high as investor optimism about the asset’s usefulness and more favorable regulatory environment rose.  The asset may also benefit from tokenization trends over the coming years, Matt Kreiser, an analyst at crypto analytics platform Messari, told Decrypt. He noted that XRP’s price movements over the past week are reminiscent of strength seen late last year. “It’s a resurgence of what happened in the fall after the election of Tr...

    Altcoins XRP, SOL, DOGE Surge Following Bitcoin's New All-Time High

    A stream of major altcoins rose on Monday morning, as leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin set a new all-time high of $122,838. The biggest gainer of the past 24 hours among the top 100 cryptocurrencies is Algorand, which has jumped by over 15%. It's closely followed by Sui, which has risen by 14.1% to a $13.7 billion market cap, according to CoinGecko. Larger altcoins have also seen gains, albeit slightly smaller, like XRP, which has climbed 7% on the day and over 30% on the week. Other tokens like...

    The SEC Chair Who Sued Ripple Is Now Prosecuting Roman Storm

    Since President Donald Trump’s crypto-fueled return to office, the American digital assets industry has lost most of its favorite villains, and many of its most revered martyrs.  But in the United States, at least one victim of the federal government’s so-called “war on crypto” remains: Roman Storm, co-founder of the popular coin mixing service Tornado Cash, who is set to go on trial Monday in New York for criminal conspiracy to commit money laundering and evading U.S. sanctions.  And the man no...

    XRP Price Spike Outpaces Bitcoin as Open Interest Nears 6-Month High

    As Bitcoin breaks new records, the third biggest digital coin by market cap, XRP, is actually making larger 24-hour gains. The coin is right now the biggest winner out of the top 10 cryptocurrencies, having surged by over 12% in 24 hours, according to CoinGecko. Its price currently stands at $2.79.

    Ripple Chooses BNY for Stablecoin Custodian as RLUSD Reaches $500 Million

    BNY will safeguard funds backing Ripple Labs’ RLUSD, serving as the XRP-linked stablecoin’s primary custodian, according to a press release. The bank, which manages $43 trillion in assets, described RLUSD as distinct compared to most consumer-facing stablecoins. Ripple’s product, which debuted late last year, has been “purpose-built for enterprise utility,” with institutions’ needs in mind, BNY Melon said. With a market capitalization of $500 million, RLUSD is much smaller than Tether’s $158 bil...

    Major altcoins have dropped after U.S. President Donald Trump stirred up trade tensions by threatening tariffs once again, while the controversial “Big, Beautiful Bill” passed its final hurdle in Congress on Thursday—much to the dismay of Tesla CEO Elon Musk. XRP has dropped 2.8% over the past 24 hours, with Solana falling 2.6%, and Cardano 4%. Fan favorite Dogecoin has also tumbled by 4% and Hyperliquid 4.7%. “President Donald Trump signaled that new tariff notices could be issued as early as...

    $280 Million in Crypto Shorts Liquidated as Bitcoin Tops $110K

    Bitcoin briefly topped $110,000 Thursday morning, sparking over $331 million in liquidations across the crypto market—the bulk of which were short positions. The price of Bitcoin has since slipped back to $109,720, up 1.8% on the day according to CoinGecko data—just 1.8% from last month's all-time high of $111,814. As a result of this movement, over $101 million in short BTC positions were liquidated over the past 24 hours, according to CoinGlass. Ethereum painted a similar picture, with $91.2 m...

    SEC Hits Pause on Grayscale's XRP, Solana and Cardano ETF Conversion

    Put away those champagne bottles—the SEC hasn’t greenlit trading for a Grayscale ETF focused not just on Bitcoin and Ethereum, but also altcoins including XRP, Solana, and Cardano… at least, not quite yet.  On Tuesday, the Wall Street regulator issued an order finding that it had good cause to approve ETF conversion for the Grayscale product, dubbed the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund (GDLC), on an accelerated basis.  Quietly attached to the order, however, was a letter from SEC leadership stay...

    Ripple vs SEC: Why the XRP Legal Battle Still Isn't Officially Over

    Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) have been embroiled in a yearslong legal dispute—and despite joint attempts to conclude the fight, it’s still not over. In 2020, the SEC charged Ripple and two executives with conducting a $1.3 billion unregistered securities offering over its sales of XRP. In 2023, a judge ruled largely in Ripple’s favor, marking an optimistic point for the crypto industry’s regulatory battles.  But the SEC later appealed that ruling, followed by a cr...

    Will Solana, XRP, Dogecoin and Other Crypto ETFs Take Off?

Analysts disagree on their potential popularity.  "Everyone knows Bitcoin by...

    Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said on Friday that the fintech will drop its cross appeal in a long-running case with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The announcement comes just a day after U.S. District Judge Analisa Torres denied a proposal from Ripple Labs and the SEC to cut a $125 million penalty or toss out an injunction imposed against the XRP-linked firm last year. That decision followed less than two weeks after the SEC and Ripple requested that the court lower a civil penalty...

    Ethereum and XRP Pump on Relief Rally, But These Coins Are Mooning Harder: Analysis

    The crypto market erupted in a relief rally today as President Donald Trump claimed a full cease fire between Iran and Israel, sparking a general market rebound as global tensions seem to fade.

In the meantime, S&P 500 futures climbed 0.58% to 6,112, and the dollar index dropped 0.32% to 98.10. The risk-on rotation saw gold pull back as safe-haven demand waned...
