Ripple has continually increased its efforts via blockchain-based products to increase the efficiency of the global financial system. However, the actual utility of XRP tokens in these systems and their adoption are still unclear. Moreover, there is also an impending question of XRP to be regulated as a security.

Nevertheless, trading analysts and chart experts are viewing a bullish reversal on the Bitcoin scale. However, Bitcoin’s dominance over the crypto-markets and the bearish market on it is adversely affecting the sentiments.

Hence, in the event of a revival of positive sentiments towards the crypto-markets, XRP could rise handsomely.
