Ripple News : XRP’s Changing Landscape: 2023 in Review and 2024 Predictions

Big changes are brewing for cryptocurrencies, especially with the upcoming launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs. This move could significantly boost how widely accepted cryptocurrencies become. While there’s no clear info yet on which major U.S. store will start taking crypto payments, Ripple’s focus on using XRP for global payments, according to Grant, might help make XRP and other cryptocurrencies more popular and useful.

CBDC Plays a Huge Role

In parallel to these predictions, Ripple’s projection of CBDCs emerging in 2024 adds another layer of anticipation. Grant foresees a G7 nation stepping into the CBDC arena, signaling a pivotal era where government-backed digital currencies take center stage. The introduction of CBDCs by major economies could revolutionize traditional financial systems, potentially validating and legitimizing the broader crypto landscape.

XRP Continues to Drop Amidst Positive Ripple Vibes

XRP, historically strong in the altcoin market, has struggled to maintain its 5th position amid the current bullish wave, with its price lagging. Despite brief spikes around early December, hitting $0.69, it dipped by 11.5% to $0.61 by December 20. Ripple’s recent ecosystem advancements, like the CBDC whitepaper and recognition by the Central Bank of Ireland, haven’t boosted XRP’s price. Experts anticipate a bearish trend, expecting XRP to dip below $0.60 shortly. 

But If XRP’s price is to surge, bullish momentum needs to drive XRP beyond $0.75. A breakthrough above this level could propel XRP to $1, with potential rallies aiming for $2 and possibly $3.

Overall, Rob Grant’s predictions point to a changing world where practicality and widespread use could energize cryptocurrencies, possibly changing how we see and use digital assets like XRP.

Hence, the question is – With 2023 ending on such a note, will 2024 be any different? How high can XRP go in the new year?
