XRP Pushes Through $3 as Ripple-SEC Appeal Decision Looms
The move broke through multiple short-term resistance levels and coincided with high-volume buying activity, particularly on Korean exchanges.
XRP rose 3% in the 24 hours through August 7, advancing from $2.91 to as high as $3.02 before closing at $2.98. The move broke through multiple short-term resistance levels and coincided with high-volume buying activity, particularly on Korean exchanges. Technical momentum aligns with key macro developments: the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is set to deliberate on Ripple’s appeal withdrawal, while Japan’s SBI Holdings has filed for a Bitcoin-XRP ETF.
The SEC is expected to deliberate Ripple’s decision to withdraw its appeal at 03:00 UTC on August 7, ahead of a broader ruling expected by mid-month. The hearing could lock in XRP’s non-security status under U.S. law—an outcome that removes a longstanding regulatory overhang. Meanwhile, SBI Holdings’ ETF application highlights international institutional interest, with treasury diversification efforts gaining momentum from corporates reportedly pledging up to $1 billion in XRP purchases.
