Ripple’s native token – XRP – was one of the best-performing cryptocurrencies earlier this year, with its price surging above $0.80 in mid-July. Back then, US Federal Judge Analisa Torres ruled that almost all Ripple XRP sales from years ago did not constitute an offer of investment contracts, benefiting the blockchain enterprise in its case against the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). However, XRP could not keep the momentum, plunging below the $0.50 mark in September. The asset has shown some signs of revival since then and currently trades at around $0.62 (per CoinGecko’s data). Despite defying bullish experts, many of whom envisioned the asset to finish the year at a significantly higher level, some remain optimistic that the token is yet to experience substantial price growth.
