Ripple: Despite ongoing difficulties things are bullish



Bullish news from Ripple: Regardless of the conflict with the SEC, trading in the company's own cryptocurrency XRP is booming.


XRP's daily trading volume doubled in the second quarter of 2021. The cryptocurrency from Ripple behaved like the whole of the crypto market. Any negative economic effects of the legal dispute between Ripple and the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are therefore not too significant.



The numbers come from a quarterly report that Ripple published in a blog post on July 29th . The daily XRP trading volume averaged $ 2.26 billion in the first quarter of the year. In the three months that followed, it rose to $ 4.492 billion. The XRP sales made by Ripple also increased from $ 150.3 million to $ 157.9 million.


XRP development correlated with bull market

The Ripple report shows that the positive development of XRP cannot be viewed in isolation from the overall trend in the crypto market. Both the trading volume and the price of the cryptocurrency peaked in April, at the same time as the Bitcoin all-time high.


The authors of the blog post also go into the volatility in the crypto market, which again came to bear in the second quarter of the year. With the ongoing price fluctuations, they have seen a multitude of factors at work over the past few months. It mentions ransomware attacks, regulatory concerns and Elon Musk's tweets. As a further factor influencing market developments, they identify a rising fear of inflation, which leads investors, as is well known, to looking for alternatives to fiat currencies.


By the way, XRP was more volatile than the key currencies Bitcoin and Ether.



Ripple vs. SEC 

All in all, the first half of the year seems to have been favorable for XRP and Ripple. If it weren't for the ongoing conflict with the SEC, which is likely to cloud the joy of the doubled trading volume somewhat.


As a reminder, the US Securities and Exchange Commission claims that XRP is not just a token, but a security. The litigation based on this argument began last December. Ripple has been accused of distributing securities without authorization for 7 years. The company faces a fine of up to $ 1.3 billion.


Against this claim, Ripple argues that the SEC failed to notify Ripple of the violation of the rules. The XRP publisher recently achieved success in court. Former SEC official William Hinman is due to appear as a witness. Hinman is known for his view that cryptocurrencies are not viewed as securities.


The procedure itself is still in a phase of preparation. Both parties exchange documents. In the blog post, Ripple promises to do everything possible to “move the case forward as quickly as possible”.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...
