I guess the XRP surge has been a result of the changing wind in the SEC case against it. The consensus of many is that XRP is on the advantageous side and has a bigger chance of winning the case soon. The decision of the judge to allow XRP for discovery is a giant step on its side to gain the upper hand. Though am sure this can be taking a certain time to solve and there can be more dramatic movements along the way, I am inclined to believe that XRP will win this case. And it is about time that SEC has a taste of its bitter medicine. And this can also be helping pave the way to really have a clear-cut definition on what constitute security and what is not.
