#bnb $XRP #BNBChainMeme Let's carefully check and clarify the XRP price data in 2021:
Early 2021: XRP price fluctuated between $0.22–$0.30.
Highest 2021: On April 14, 2021, the price reached $1.96.
End 2021: On December 31, 2021, the price was around $0.83.
Growth percentage calculation:
YTD to Peak ($0.22 → $1.96):
((1.96 - 0.22) / 0.22) * 100% = +790%
YTD to End of Year ($0.22 → $0.83):
((0.83 - 0.22) / 0.22) * 100% = +277%
Top to Top ($0.17 in December 2020 → $1.96):
((1.96 - 0.17) / 0.17) * 100% = +1050%
This data confirms that XRP has seen significant growth in 2021, peaking in April and then declining towards the end of the year. The main factor holding back further growth was the ongoing litigation between the SEC and Ripple, which limited institutional investor interest.
If not for these legal hurdles, perhaps XRP could have reached higher price levels given the overall bullish trend in the crypto market in 2021.
If not for the litigation, do you think XRP could have surpassed its previous highs?
