The existence of RLUSD which was initiated since August 2024 has a positive bright spot... NYDFS is expected to approve the launch of RLUSD which is targeted for launch on December 4, 2024... after this RLUSD is available, XRP and also RLUSD will be used for cross-border payment purposes... truly an innovation that has shaken the world, until we see the growth of XRP assets reaching 490% in the last month... which was $0.5 in early November, now the price is above $2... until its market cap surpasses USDT and is ranked third on CMC...
It's very difficult to accurately determine the driving force behind XRP price increase in the market. The reasons could be Trump win, the upcoming resignation of Gary Gensler, very good relationship with Trump, the success of RLUSD, the proposed XRP Spot ETF, or a combination of all those reasons ^^
Compared to many other stablecoins in the market, RLUSD has great potential if it can reach Ripple global user base, but it could also limit XRP value in the ecosystem. Regardless, the increase in XRP price is what we are witnessing, and it's driving FOMO as investors also start to look for and wait for crazy price increases from other tokens, especially the old coins in the market. There are many exciting things in the bullrun waiting for us!
