Ripple Labs Case Verdict Triggers $60 Billion Crypto Market Expansion
The partial summary judgment within the Ripple lawsuit propelled the digital asset XRP to a 60%+ increase within a single day. Consequently, XRP’s substantial gains triggered a surge in numerous altcoins’ values. For example, Stellar (XLM) saw an increase of over 40%, while ADA leaped more than 20% in the past day. Archived data retrieved from coinmarketcap.com (CMC) on July 12, 2023, exhibited Bitcoin’s dominance at 50% in relation to the $1.19 trillion crypto economy.
Currently, BTC dominance has diminished to 48.6% due to significant returns in the altcoin arena overshadowing its market presence. Just two days ago, XRP ranked as the sixth largest market capitalization among multiple crypto assets; however, it now boasts the fourth-largest position. While XRP experienced a 70% increase within 24 hours, its impressive ascent propelled its monthly gains above 50%.
In addition to XRP, other notable crypto gainers over the past day include XLM, SNX, LDO, SOL, ADA, INJ, NEAR, AVAX, PEPE, APE, and OP. Archived data from CMC on July 12 further reveals that during the previous two-day period, the cryptocurrency market swelled by $60 billion.
