XRP News: Robinhood Relists XRP After Ripple’s Legal Victory

The post XRP News: Robinhood Relists XRP After Ripple’s Legal Victory appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

XRP is back in action, breaking past $0.5900 and eyeing its July 2024 high of $0.6602, all thanks to Robinhood re-listing it on its commission-free platform! This comes as Ripple’s legal battle with the SEC officially ends, sparking optimism in the crypto community. While the addition of XRP to Robinhood’s crypto brokerage is exciting news, there’s more to the story let’s dig in. 

Robinhood’s crypto arm quietly updated its supported assets to include XRP, alongside other coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Shiba Inu. However, the platform hasn’t officially announced the move, leaving the community to discover the change on its help page. The catch? Only EU customers can currently trade XRP, leaving U.S. users waiting for potential updates.

While trading isn’t available yet, Robinhood users can now see XRP’s price chart, which is exciting for the XRP community. This could mean wider market access and more trading activity, which could make investors and fans hopeful.

Speculation around XRP’s return to Robinhood had been brewing, especially after the brokerage acquired Bitstamp, which supports XRP trading. However, the lengthy Ripple vs. SEC lawsuit had been a significant hurdle, now cleared after Ripple agreed to pay $125 million in fines, resolving the case without an appeal from the SEC.

With the lawsuit behind them, Ripple has newfound regulatory clarity, making XRP an attractive asset for exchanges and investors. Robinhood’s move could encourage other platforms to relist the coin as well, especially as XRP has seen a 3.75% rise in value, trading at $0.5898, outpacing other top 10 coins.

In addition to Robinhood’s listing, Grayscale’s launch of the first XRP Trust has further bolstered confidence in XRP’s future, with increasing prospects for a potential spot ETF. As Ripple emerges from its legal struggles, more support for XRP seems inevitable, with growing optimism for the coin’s adoption.

XRP is experiencing a slight pullback, trading at $0.5820 after reaching a high of $0.5961. With support at $0.5734 and the 50-day EMA at $0.5621, these levels could act as buffers against further losses. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has dropped from overbought levels to 60.16, signaling a potential slowdown in bullish momentum. Traders should keep an eye on key levels, as a break below $0.5734 could trigger a retest of $0.5621, while a push above $0.5961 could see XRP targeting $0.6135.
