XRP is very trendy - Three reasons for the current success of the Ripple cryptocurrency

 


An example of this is that the XRP price gained a whopping 25% in 30 days after both parties to the dispute applied to the competent court for a verdict as soon as possible. During the same period, bitcoin 

The 'bull flag' is a positive price pattern that forms when a flat range wedge forms after a sharp upleg. Such continuations typically resolve and continue in the direction of the previous uptrend.  


In the daily chart, the XRP price has settled within such a structure since the end of September (see below). In the course of this, the Ripple cryptocurrency has already tried to climb up from the flag twice, but without success. The third attempt is due in the next few days.

In theory, after a bull flag breakout, price climbs by the same amount as the previous major upleg. Accordingly, the XRP rate could jump to $0.63 in Q4 2022.


That would mean a whopping 35% increase.


Accumulation picks up speed

The favorable starting position for XRP in the technical analysis is supported by other positive indicators from the on-chain data, which point to accumulation.


Above all, the average "coin age" - i.e. the average age of all available currency units in relation to the respective purchase price - has been rising again since September, according to data from Santiment. This suggests that Ripple investors are currently holding their XRP again, rather than selling it off.

In addition, crypto data service Whale Alert indicates that several million US dollars worth of XRP have recently been withdrawn from major crypto exchanges such as Bitstamp and Bitso, further reducing the existing supply volume.


Since Oct. 14, investors have moved a total of $126 million from crypto exchanges to their wallets. At the same time, only $78.99 million in XRP was deposited on trading platforms.

Is Ripple Victory Approaching?

As mentioned at the beginning, the origin of this positive mood around XRP is Ripple’s apparently increasing chances of winning in the proceedings against the SEC.


One of Ripple's key arguments in the process is a speech by former SEC Director William Hinman , in which he shared his take on why he wouldn't classify Ethereum as a security at the 2018 Yahoo Finance All Markets Summit.


Following these statements, Ripple argues that the SEC should treat the proprietary cryptocurrency XRP similar to Ethereum. In fact, many observers see this as a powerful argument that could bring victory to the blockchain company. As one expert puts it :


“The news that the court dismissed the SEC's objection to disclosure of documents linked to Hinman's 2018 speech caused XRP to jump in price on September 30. The XRP price has climbed 12% in just 24 hours. Such uplegs could provide a first taste of where things are headed if Ripple wins the case.”

Ripple boss Brad Garlinghouse expects the process to be completed in the first half of 2023. However, even the CEO considers the outcome of the proceedings to be difficult to predict.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
