The price trend for XRP still has some elements of instability and uncertainty. Recall that over the past three days, XRP indicated slight volatility as the price climbed to around $0.35. The coin showed a considerable presence of the bulls through its price movement. However, XRP still couldn’t sustain the reclaimed value as the token fell to the $0.33 level. A recent report disclosed that Ripple’s case with SEC might still last longer. Seven days ago, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse estimated that the lawsuit might run for 3 to 4 months more but should end in Q1 of 2023. As the lawsuit is highly linked to XRP, analysts predict a change to a positive direction.
