Hot scoop! XRP has surged by 14% on the heels of stories indicating the SEC could be softening its stance toward the prospect of XRP ETFs. Apparently, a duo of requests have been lodged and are being assessed. This might just revolutionize XRP!”
Ripple has been on a recruitment drive recently, onboarding nearly a dozen roles in the States since the start of October.
**Ripple versus SEC: The Ongoing Saga?**

Carlos Guzman, an analyst at GSR, anticipates Ripple will achieve a significant victory if the SEC’s appeal is unsuccessful or if the new SEC leadership decides to settle.
**Newcomer on the Scene: RLUSD**
Ripple isn’t simply idling, awaiting the conclusion of the lawsuit. They introduced RLUSD, a dollar-linked token, in mid-December, intending to seize a portion of the $233 billion stablecoin market.
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse is of the opinion that stablecoins like RLUSD will gain greater traction as the US establishes clearer regulations.
Nevertheless, RLUSD is still striving to establish its presence, presently ranked at number 29 with a market capitalization of $108 million.
