ETH/USD remains trading at $245 and it’s still eying up $250 as the next crucial target.
XRP/USD climbed above $0.20 but it’s unclear if it will be able to sustain this price as there is a lot of selling pressure nearby.

After banning the advertisement of cryptocurrency projects, Twitter, Facebook and Google are now all facing a $600 million lawsuit by many Australian businesses represented by JPB Liberty, law firm. According to the firm, the businesses were greatly harmed because of the ban on crypto and are seeking damages amounting to $600 million.
Google already lifted its ban two years ago but only allowed regulated exchanges to advertise. Twitter, even though its CEO is vocally supporting crypto, has not lifted its ban just yet.
As reported earlier, banks in the US should now be able to provide custody services for cryptocurrencies. According to a report by Reuters, Jonathan Gould, the Senior Deputy Comptroller, and Senior Counsel wrote a letter addressed to an unidentified bank, stating that the demand for new technology like cryptocurrencies is increasing and banks will need to provide these services.
