Lisk, FTX token, XRP price: Gainers shine, while others wilt
The altcoin market has been following the Pied Piper, Bitcoin, and has been noting similar wave-like movement, but one altcoin was reporting profit despite the constant bear attacks.
XRP
The third-largest cryptocurrency, XRP has been fighting a difficult market condition for the past few days. XRP indicated a sharp rise in its price when 2020 began, marked with an uptrend in the chart above. After XRP reached the value of $0.3397, it began to slide. The coin’s major fall occurred on 12 March, pushing it once again to the $0.11 level. It managed to recover from it in the following days. XRP’s current valuation stood at $0.1723 and has been reporting a total loss of 16.61% of its value since the beginning of the year.
