Los datos de Tradingview muestran que el XRP superó el dólar para alcanzar un máximo histórico de tres años de 1,26 dólares desde el 11 de noviembre de 2021. El aumento sugiere la anticipación de cambios regulatorios favorables y el posible fin de una batalla legal de larga data entre Ripple y el SEC de EE. UU.
Sin embargo, el precio retrocedió significativamente hasta un 20% el 17 de noviembre, lo que provocó un movimiento masivo de XRP y un cambio en la distribución de las tenencias.
Los datos de CryptoQuant revelaron que el saldo de reservas de XRP en los intercambios aumentó un 3% en el período de diez días hasta el 16 de noviembre. El crecimiento de precios del 56% entre el 13 y el 16 de noviembre estuvo acompañado de un aumento de 44 millones de tokens en las reservas XRP en los intercambios.
