SEC charges not affecting price

The price of XRP has been negatively affected by an ongoing row with the The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The SEC had previously filed charges against
Ripple Labs Inc. and its top two executives. The charges related to the $1.3 billion sale of unregistered securities in the form of XRP. 

The ongoing legal battle is still underway. With Ripple having been delisted on several exchanges in an attempt to protect themselves from legal headaches from the SEC. The charges also saw Ripple Labs fall out with popular money transfer company Moneygram

It now appears Ripple Lab’s fightback against the SEC may be paying off. The XRP token has seen a dramatic turnaround from nearly falling out of the top ten, to reclaiming its fifth spot on the top cryptocurrencies list.

Market bullish on XRP

The current sentiment around XRP remains bullish as traders continue to long the cryptocurrency. While XRP still has a long way to go in order to reach its previous all-time high of $3, the project has seen an incredible resurgence. The latest price sees the project tap a new three year high, last seen following the 2017 cryptocurrency bull run. 

XRP could possibly see more upside potential over the course of the next few days as traders pile their longs into the cryptocurrency.
