Ripple's XRP plummets amid SEC lawsuit
Ripple (XRP) is seeing some significant selling pressure as the company faces mounting legal pressure from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
As of writing, XRP was trading at $0.894, down more than 10% on the day.
The SEC filed a lawsuit against Ripple on Tuesday, alleging that the company fraudulently misled investors about its xRapid product. The suit alleges that XRP is not a currency and does not meet the definition of a security.
This news comes as a major blow to Ripple, which has been riding high on the wave of bullish sentiment surrounding its XRP token.
XRP has seen a significant surge in value over the past few months, rising more than 1,000% since the beginning of the year. But this surge may be coming to an end, as Ripple's legal problems could lead to a substantial sell-off in XRP.
bloomberg finance charts: Litecoin gains as Bitcoin prices stagnate
Litecoin prices surged higher on Wednesday as Bitcoin prices continued to stagnate.
Litecoin prices are up more than 10% on the day as of writing, while Bitcoin is down 0.5%.
Bitcoin prices have been in a freefall since the beginning of the year, dropping more than 50% from their all-time high. Litecoin, by contrast, has seen modest price growth over the past month.
Some analysts believe that Litecoin could eventually supplant Bitcoin as the leading cryptocurrency. Litecoin has faster transactions and is also more efficient than Bitcoin when it comes to mining.
