Ripple
(XRP)
CEO
Brad
Garlinghouse
spoke
at
a
crypto
roundtable
event
on
Wednesday.
The
Ripple
executive
slammed
Democrats
for
not
taking
notice
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
(SEC)
Chair
Gary
Gensler’s
enforcement
actions
on
crypto.
Garlinghouse
addressed
a
gathering
that
included
Mark
Cuban,
Coinbase
CLO
Paul
Grewal,
and
key
US
Congressional
leaders.
There
was
no
further
update
in
the
SEC
vs.
Ripple
lawsuit
and
XRP
hovers
around
$0.45,
at
the
time
of
writing.
Ripple
is
in
an
upward
correction.
The
altcoin
extends
gains
on
Thursday,
rallying
to
$0.4509
at
the
time
of
writing.
Ripple
could
rally
towards
the
next
key
resistance
at
$0.4760,
the
July
2
low.
This
marks
a
5.55%
increase
in
XRP
price.
The
Moving
Average
Convergence
Divergence
(MACD)
indicator
shows
that
MACD
line
is
about
to
cross
above
the
signal
line.
If
this
occurs,
it
would
support
a
bullish
thesis
for
Ripple.

Ripple
could
find
support
at
$0.4032,
the
July

low,
and
$0.3823,
the
July

low.
Bitcoin
is
the
largest
cryptocurrency
by
market
capitalization,
a
virtual
currency
designed
to
serve
as
money.
This
form
of
payment
cannot
be
controlled
by
any
one
person,
group,
or
entity,
which
eliminates
the
need
for
third-party
participation
during
financial
transactions.
Altcoins
are
any
cryptocurrency
apart
from
Bitcoin,
but
some
also
regard
Ethereum
as
a
non-altcoin
because
it
is
from
these
two
cryptocurrencies
that
forking
happens.
If
this
is
true,
then
Litecoin
is
the
first
altcoin,
forked
from
the
Bitcoin
protocol
and,
therefore,
an
“improved”
version
of
it.
Stablecoins
are
cryptocurrencies
designed
to
have
a
stable
price,
with
their
value
backed
by
a
reserve
of
the
asset
it
represents.
To
achieve
this,
the
value
of
any
one
stablecoin
is
pegged
to
a
commodity
or
financial
instrument,
such
as
the
US
Dollar
(USD),
with
its
supply
regulated
by
an
algorithm
or
demand.
The
main
goal
of
stablecoins
is
to
provide
an
on/off-ramp
for
investors
willing
to
trade
and
invest
in
cryptocurrencies.
Stablecoins
also
allow
investors
to
store
value
since
cryptocurrencies,
in
general,
are
subject
to
volatility.
Bitcoin
dominance
is
the
ratio
of
Bitcoin’s
market
capitalization
to
the
total
market
capitalization
of
all
cryptocurrencies
combined.
It
provides
a
clear
picture
of
Bitcoin’s
interest
among
investors.
A
high
BTC
dominance
typically
happens
before
and
during
a
bull
run,
in
which
investors
resort
to
investing
in
relatively
stable
and
high
market
capitalization
cryptocurrency
like
Bitcoin.
A
drop
in
BTC
dominance
usually
means
that
investors
are
moving
their
capital
and/or
profits
to
altcoins
in
a
quest
for
higher
returns,
which
usually
triggers
an
explosion
of
altcoin
rallies.
