Why XRP is up 1.4% in the last hour
Analysis
XRP rose 1.4% over the past hour as sentiment appeared supported by reports that Ripple is working with Japan’s SBI Group to launch its RLUSD stablecoin in Japan, a development that may be viewed as constructive for Ripple’s ecosystem and regional adoption. This uptick came despite broader market pressure highlighted by Decrypt, which noted that a Bitcoin-led sell-off had recently dragged major alts like XRP lower, suggesting XRP’s move was relatively resilient versus the wider tape.
