XRP Dominates Social Trends as Trading Volume Crosses $1.7B … – The Crypto Basic


XRP has surged to prominence, dominating social media discussions and trading volumes across major exchanges following a significant victory in the Ripple vs. SEC lawsuit.

The crucial moment for XRP came as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) faced a significant setback. Judge Torres recently denied the SEC’s motion to file an interlocutory appeal on the July 13 ruling, as reported by The Crypto Basic. 

Santiment, a prominent crypto market intelligence provider, called attention to the impact of this verdict on the XRP market. According to Santiment, XRP witnessed an immediate and substantial 8% price surge following the ruling.

Santiment also shared revealing data through a chart, illustrating the rise of XRP’s social dominance. The chart depicts a surge to a 3-month high of 22.5% for XRP, driven by increased mentions within the broader crypto community.
