How $XRP sent $USDC out of the prized crypto index

Ripple has replaced Circle as the fifth member of the Hong Kong Virtual Asset Consortium (HKVAC) global large equal weight index. Ripple's partial win over the U.S. SEC helped XRP get on the list. XRP has a 41.50% increase on a Year-To-Date (YTD) basis. Both USDC and XRP have experienced declines in recent times. USDC briefly fell to $0.86 but was able to regain the dollar peg moments later.
