XRP Jumps 13% Ahead of Ripple Stablecoin Launch
XRP saw its price jump 21% over the last seven days and 13% over the last 24 hours, trading at $2.69 as of press time—just as the Ripple USD (RLUSD) stablecoin launches on the network. XRP was launched by the co-founders of Ripple Labs in 2012, but the company has gone to great lengths to stress that it is not the issuer of the token. Still, crypto traders know there’s a link and tend to consider good news for Ripple Labs, like its new stablecoin being approved by New York regulators, as an indi...

In a December 15 post on X, Schwartz addressed concerns about RLUSD’s market debut, acknowledging the possibility of initial supply shortages that could drive its price above its intended $1 parity to the U.S. dollar.

XRP Plunges Below $2 Mark as Bitcoin Tumbles Again
XRP surged last week to a seven-year high price of $2.82 on renewed optimism of regulatory clarity ahead, but volatility in the crypto markets has rocked the coin, sending it below the $2 mark on Tuesday as Bitcoin continued to cool off.

Altcoins XRP, Tron and Cardano Cool Off as Market Reacts to Bitcoin Plunge
The crypto market experienced a sharp downturn on Monday, with recent top-performing assets such as XRP (XRP), Tron (TRX), and Cardano (ADA) taking substantial hits. This follows weeks of explosive rallies that had stunned market observers, propelling these "dino coins" to unexpected highs. These altcoins saw steep declines as Bitcoin's retreat from $100K triggered widespread liquidations and a market-wide selloff. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading just above $97,000 and 2% lower than i...

Account activation on the XRP Ledger now only requires 1 XRP, valued at around $2.50, to meet the blockchain’s reserve requirement—a feature designed to limit excessive growth of the network by setting a minimum amount of XRP an account must hold.

'Astonishing' XRP Surge Driven by Regulatory Hopes, ETF Speculation: Analysts
