<h2 id="sec-lawsuit-s-impact-on-xrp-price">SEC Lawsuit’s Impact on XRP Price</h2> 
Ripple identified the ongoing SEC lawsuit as a key factor influencing XRP prices, pointing out that regulatory uncertainty continues to affect the broader crypto market. According to Ripple, the legal dispute with the SEC has led to volatility in XRP’s valuation, a trend that may persist as the case unfolds. Currently, <a href="https://www.turkishnyradio.com/the-ripple-effect-how-harris-policy-impact/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">XRP</a> holds the position as the seventh-largest cryptocurrency by market cap and trades at approximately $0.51, per CoinGecko data. The outcome of the SEC case is expected to have lasting implications on XRP’s market position and long-term price trajectory.
