XRP Surges 4.72% as Ripple Ends SEC Lawsuit, Paving Way for Regulatory Clarity and ETF Hopes

XRPUSDT experienced a 4.72% price increase in the last 24 hours, rising from a 24h open of $2.0930 to a current price of $2.1917 on Binance. This upward movement is primarily attributed to Ripple's announcement that it is dropping its cross-appeal in the longstanding SEC lawsuit, effectively ending the legal dispute and confirming that XRP sales to retail traders are not securities transactions. The resolution of this case has improved market sentiment, with investors anticipating regulatory clarity and the potential for a future spot XRP ETF. XRP maintains strong trading activity, with 24-hour volumes around $3.14–$3.15 billion and a market cap of approximately $123.9 billion, while price action remains stable within the $2.09–$2.19 range and liquidity is high across over 1,600 active markets.
