Ripple XRP/USD price history up until May 1, 2024
Ethereum's price, for example, kept on reaching new all-time highs, a feat not performed by XRP. Indeed, XRP's more price spikes followed relatively late - only occurring in early 2021, against late 2020 for most other cryptos - after the US SEC filed a legal complaint against Ripple in November 2020. This legal action caused the XRP price to plummet from around 0.70 U.S. dollars to 0.20 U.S. dollars.
Ripple - or XRP - prices surged in 2021, but went down significantly as 2022 progressed. As of May 1, 2024, one XRP token was worth 0.52 U.S. dollars.
