Cryptocurrencies are trading at a stable level in the middle of today’s session, Tuesday, December 3, as Bitcoin maintains the $90,000 level, while the Ripple XRP currency rose to become the third digital currency in terms of market value, surpassing Tether for the first time, benefiting from the rise in positive momentum for the currency and news from the United States of America that the Financial Services Administration approved the Ripple stablecoin RLUSD.
The US Securities and Exchange Commission, after the expected change in its leadership, raised market expectations of changing its position towards the Riel currency, which it had been against since December 2020, which supported the currency and its plans to integrate it with the RippleNet payment system.
Ripple also plans to launch exchange-traded funds (ETFs) for XRP in the coming period, which also supports an increase in market value, new expected increases, and a promising future for the cryptocurrency.
