🚀 Good news from the crypto world! In the past few days, Ripple (XRP) and Cardano (ADA) have been the main stars on the altcoin stage. XRP is close to touching the sacred $1 mark, fueled by speculation that SEC Chairman Gary Gensler will step down before Trump is inaugurated. XRP fans are hoping his replacement will be more crypto-friendly.

XRP has risen 70% this week, and analysts believe $1 is just a stone's throw away. In fact, it could rise another 50% if FOMO gets even crazier. XRP whales are also getting greedier, adding to their collection to a 6.5-year high.

Meanwhile, ADA is also soaring, fueled by news that Charles Hoskinson will be working with Trump's team and possibly collaborating with SpaceX. ADA is up 20% a day, but it still needs 38% to reach $1. Analysts are more optimistic about XRP, but who knows, ADA could surprise you?
