XRP Pumps Bigly
📸 Daily Market Snapshot: While memecoins have undoubtedly been the big winners this week, XRP is catching a bid in a major way as the resilient token has pumped nearly 60% this week and is reaching heights it has not seen since late 2021. It's undeniable that XRP is poised to benefit in a major way from Gensler's presumed departure, a move that would likely remove obstacles from the approval of XRP spot ETF applications.

In just two years, Hyperliquid has quickly positioned itself as a leading force in the crypto derivatives market, emerging as one of the most actively traded perpetual DEXs.
Setting itself apart in the blockchain landscape, Hyperliquid has taken a product-first approach, fostering organic growth without heavy reliance on incentives and maintaining financial independence as a strictly self-funded team. It’s processed $21B in volume this week alone and has 3x’d its total share of perpetuals volume this year, climbing from ~11% in December 2023 to 33% this week.
All the while, Hyperliquid has been running a points program that will soon culminate in the highly anticipated HYPE token TGE, laying the foundation for its future decentralization, the addition of EVM compatibility, and community governance.
Let’s take some time to explore what makes Hyperliquid unique, methods for gaining exposure to the upcoming TGE, and its planned expansion once HYPE is live 👇
