Key drivers include political and cultural events such as Donald Trump’s election and Elon Musk’s endorsement of Dogecoin. Technical indicators also confirm the possibility of continued growth, and some experts predict the token may reach $3 in the coming years.
XRP: Success in SEC Battle
XRP likewise posted impressive gains. Contributing factors included positive developments in Ripple’s legal status and the launch of the new stablecoin RLUSD. Analysts suggest that if Ripple stays on course and fully resolves its legal proceedings, XRP’s price could see significant increases, potentially hitting $8–$17.
At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.16, up 242% over the past year.
