What is XRP?
XRP is a cryptocurrency used on the XRP Ledger (XRPL), a public blockchain network designed for quick and low-cost transfers. The ledger supports a range of features such as payments and token-like functionality, and it has long been positioned around settlement efficiency. XRP’s market attention is also shaped by ecosystem news, exchange listings, and ongoing discussion about regulation and compliance in parts of the industry. That mix—payments narrative plus headline sensitivity—can make XRP’s price action feel unusually news-driven at times. When you track XRP, it helps to keep it alongside other large-cap assets to understand whether a move is specific to XRP or part of a broader market shift. In a calmer tracker, the goal is simple: see what changed, keep context, and avoid being pulled into rapid-fire speculation.
