XRP Rival Stellar (XLM) Skyrockets 140% in Volume Amid XRP Mania

As a seasoned crypto investor with over a decade of experience in the digital asset market, I have witnessed numerous unexpected surges and crashes in various cryptocurrencies. Today’s sudden rise of XRP has once again proven that this market is anything but predictable.


Out of nowhere, the unexpected frenzy surrounding XRP in the cryptocurrency realm took everyone by surprise today. In just 24 hours, this widely-used digital asset ascended to the summit of the most lucrative cryptocurrencies available.

As a crypto investor, I’ve noticed a significant dip in the XRP market today. A massive green candle on the price chart has caused the price to drop by approximately 6%, which is substantial considering its current market cap exceeds $30 billion.

This unexpected bullish momentum on XRP is also reflected on the chart of Stellar (XLM).

XLM, also known as Ripple’s primary competitor, was initially designed with that role in mind by Jed McCaleb. Having departed from Ripple and the creation of its ledger (XRPL), McCaleb focused on developing a decentralized infrastructure for global remittances.

Later emerged Stellar and its XLM token, which the market viewed as a precursor or trial run for the price fluctuations of XRP.
