XRP Holdings On Bitrue Exchange Surges By 300%

Over the last week, the XRP token has dominated the headlines following Ripple’s partial court victory over the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)

On July 13, Judge Analisa Torres of the US District Court of the Southern District of New York ruled that XRP doesn’t qualify as a security leading to a massive price surge in which the token gained by almost 90%.

However, while it may appear that XRP’s positive effect on the market is waning, with most assets slipping into a bearish state, there is still a high level of interest surrounding this altcoin, proven by a recent report from prominent crypto exchange Bitrue.
