XRP has experienced dramatic fluctuations and market changes since its launch in 2012. From weak trading in the early days to becoming one of the world's leading digital payment tools, XRP's history is full of changes and challenges. Especially in Ripple's legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), XRP has faced many obstacles but also demonstrated its tenacious market resilience. With the arrival of 2025, XRP may usher in a new breakthrough, but whether this breakthrough will happen and how it may perform can be analyzed from its history and current market conditions.
1. XRP's early history and market fluctuations
2012-2016: Downturn and start-up
In 2012, XRP's initial price was less than $0.01 and trading activity was extremely limited. It wasn’t until 2014 to 2016, when Ripple Labs began working with financial institutions, that XRP began to gain traction, but the price remained low, well below $0.01.
2017: XRP’s First Rise
In 2017, the cryptocurrency market’s explosion marked a huge leap in XRP’s price. As interest in Ripple’s technology grew, XRP surged from $0.006 to over $1, reaching an all-time high of $3.84 in December.
2018: Market Crash and Price Retreat
However, the 2018 market crash caused XRP’s price to plummet to $0.60 in February, stabilizing between $0.30-0.40 by the end of the year. This period highlighted the high volatility of XRP’s price, which was particularly strongly influenced by market sentiment and speculation.
2021: XRP’s Recovery
XRP experienced another rise in 2021, and as the market recovered, the price of XRP once again broke through $1 and approached its all-time high in March and April. However, affected by the SEC lawsuit, the price of XRP gradually fell in 2022, although it still fluctuated in the $0.50-1.00 range.
2024: Legal Challenges and Price Recovery
In November 2024, the price of XRP once again rose, breaking through $2, and is currently trading at nearly $1.94. This marks a partial victory for XRP in its legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and investors are optimistic about Ripple's future prospects.
