Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Ripple, Bitcoin & Altcoins — Asian Wrap 12 March

The altcoin’s rally to its new year-to-date high is likely catalyzed by XRP holders’ anticipation surrounding the upcoming opening brief deadline in the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) lawsuit against Ripple, and the recently passed Automated Market Maker (AMM) amendment. 

Coinbase’s recent filing in its lawsuit against the US financial regulator highlighted the SEC’s contradictory stance on digital assets. The XRP community and pro-Ripple attorneys commented on the exchange’s filing and debated its implication on the SEC v. Ripple lawsuit.
