South Korean traders are known for their active participation and quick response to market trends, hence XRP's dominance on the market might not be far-fetched.
Crypto asset manager Grayscale Investments announced the launch of the Grayscale XRP Trust, which helped boost the price of the seventh-largest digital asset by about 10% in yesterday's trading session.
XRP rose to highs of $0.588 before slightly retreating, although the gains were still sustained at press time. XRP is higher in the last 24 hours by 4.53% to $0.563, with a market value of $31.77 billion, according to CoinMarketCap data.
Grayscale trust aims to allow investors to gain exposure to XRP and will be available to eligible individual and institutional accredited investors.
