The XRP Army is rejoicing right now.

XRP, the Ripple-linked coin, has been surging since the election, and on Saturday morning it hit a price of $1.93—a mark not seen since January 2018, nearly seven years ago. Now XRP is up 277% over the past 30 days, as of this writing.

Imagine this kind of comeback during the lows of 2020, when the price of XRP dipped below $0.13, or amid the years of court battles between the SEC and Ripple Labs.

With the pro-crypto Donald Trump taking office in January and SEC Chair Gary Gensler departing the very same day, XRP fans are growing more and more confident that regulatory clarity is finally on the horizon—with XRP ETFs and more to follow suit.
