XRP Sees Major Surge, Up 10% on the Day as Market Cap Reaches $43.88B

XRP surged by 10.25%, marking its largest one-day percentage gain since November 14. By 14:31 ET (19:31 GMT), the cryptocurrency was trading at $0.7790 on the Investing.com Index, lifting its market capitalization to $43.88 billion, representing 2.30% of the total crypto market cap.

The 39.08% increase in value over the past week reflects a strong recovery, although XRP remains 76.32% below its all-time high of $3.29 reached on January 4, 2018.

At its peak, XRP’s market cap had reached $83.44 billion, but the recent rally shows renewed investor interest in the asset. Despite the strong gains, XRP’s value continues to face significant challenges as it works to recover from its all-time highs.
