XRP, the cryptocurrency associated with Ripple Labs, has shown significant movements in the early days of 2025. On January 3rd, its price increased by 11%, reaching USD 2.40, continuing the momentum of a 300% rise in 2024. This growth is attributed to the expectation that the administration of Donald Trump will reduce regulation of digital assets and ease legal pressure on Ripple Labs. The nomination of Paul Atkins, known for his pro-digital asset stance, to lead the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has reinforced this positive outlook.

Additionally, XRP has surpassed Tether's USDT stablecoin, becoming the third largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, only behind Bitcoin and Ethereum.

It is important to note that despite these bullish trends, the cryptocurrency market remains highly volatile and subject to rapid changes. Investors are advised to stay informed and exercise caution in their financial decisions.
