Can XRP recreate the legend of DOGE? The CEO is about to appear on CBS's prime time.

Do you remember the day Musk was on SNL in May 2021? DOGE went to the moon directly, rising 5890% in five months. Now XRP has already risen over 400% since election day. Will it also have a similar crazy market trend?

Key Catalyst: 60-Minute Interview

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse just announced that he will be appearing on CBS's flagship program “60 Minutes” (which attracts over 10 million viewers on Sundays) to discuss cryptocurrency topics. As soon as the news broke, XRP began to stir—rising over 93% in just one week from November 27 to December 3.

What is the background? Trump's rise to power is particularly beneficial for XRP. Firstly, former SEC chairman Gensler is stepping down, which means that the securities lawsuit that has troubled Ripple for many years is expected to conclude soon; secondly, Trump himself is pro-crypto and has met with Garlinghouse privately. The combination of these two signals has directly ignited market sentiment.

Is XRP really worth more than DOGE?

Honestly, XRP is indeed more eye-catching:

• Practical Use: Cross-border payment solution, not just pure speculation.
• Limited supply: More stable, stronger anti-inflation ability
• Fundamentals are stronger: It has underperformed DOGE over the past five years, and now the market is driven by both catch-up growth and supportive policies.
• ETF Imagination Space: A spot XRP ETF may land, attracting institutional funds.

But don't be too optimistic - once the 60-minute broadcast is over, it is likely to be “good news fully priced in is bad news,” leading to a rapid pullback. The crypto market lacks intrinsic value support and is driven entirely by emotions, so volatility will be significant.

Bottom line advice: Only invest spare money that you can afford to lose completely.
