Will Ripple Ever Reach $1? It Will but Not Before These Other Crypto

Ripple (XRP) was once the third biggest coin in the cryptocurrency space and has been a staple in the top 10 since it was launched in 2017 – offering a faster and more energy-efficient alternative to BTC.

It reached an all-time high of nearly $3.50 in the 2018 bull run and although it again looked set to break the $2 mark in 2021, a lawsuit filed by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has seen the price consistently fall and fail to break the $1 barrier since November 2021.

As well as offering analysis on XRP, this guide will offer three alternatives to the popular coin.

Ripple Price

Ripple remains the seventh biggest coin by total market capitalisation but, at the time of writing, its price is just $0.33 – only memecoins Dogecoin and Shiba Inu have a lower price in the top 15.

Built by US tech firm Ripple Labs Inc, Ripple is a payment settlement system and currency exchange that offers services to banks and payment processors. Native coin XRP is described by Ripple as a “digital asset built for global payments.”

Ripple is able to facilitate exchanges for a huge variety of crypto and fiat currencies, with a small amount of XRP being deducted as a fee whenever there is a transaction on the network.

With huge fees often involved with exchanging currency or sending money around the world Ripple is designed to tackle that problem, allowing for large sums to be sent quickly and securely with very little cost to the user.

A number of major financial institutions – including American Express, Standard Chartered and Santander – are partnered with the Ripple and it appeared the company and coin were set for a huge breakout in 2021.

However, the ongoing SEC lawsuit has had a major impact on price action. They have accused the company, co-founder Chris Larsen and CEO Brad Garlinghouse of violating US law by selling XRP as an unregistered security.

The SEC expects Ripple to settle $1.3 billion, plus interest, and while Ripple continues to argue its case, the uncertainty has transferred to potential investors.

Most analysts believe XRP will return to at least $1 when general market conditions improve, with prices up to $5 by 2025. The most bullish offering predictions of around $30 by the end of the decade, but all price action will likely depend on the outcome of the ongoing lawsuit.

Ripple Alternatives

In this section we will look at three potential Ripple (XRP) alternatives that could potentially offer gains in the more immediate future:

1.    Tamadoge

 Another project to consider as an alternative to Ripple is Tamadoge (TAMA).

It is a meme coin with a difference, offering utility and value to holders unlike traditional meme coins such as Dogecoin and Shiba Inu.

Currently in the fourth phase of its presale, TAMA has already raised nearly $13 million with each new tranche of coins seeing the price per taken increase.

It sold for 1 USDT to 100 TAMA in the first phase but now 1 USDT nets 40 TAMA with 75% of the tokens on offer in the presale now sold.

Tamadoge will be a fully fledged metaverse that includes NFT ownership and p2e gaming. Holders will be able to mint Tamagotchi-style Pets, care for them and watch them grow before battling other players for the chance to earn rewards and prizes. Later in the roadmap, the Pets will go from 3D to augmented reality (AR), allowing holders to go out into the real world with their Pets and hunt for rewards and tokens.

Tamadoge is already closing in on 10,000 holders and after the presale ends, TAMA will become available on centralized exchange (CEX) LBANK and decentralized exchange (DEX) Uniswap – this will likely see a huge increase in trading volume which is it among the fastest growing cryptos of 2022.

Potential investors can join the Tamadoge Telegram group to keep up to date with the project.

2.    Battle Infinity

An alternative to Ripple (XRP) to consider is Battle Infinity – and its native token IBAT – a new gaming platform that incorporates play-2-earn gaming and a metaverse.

The Battle Infinity ecosystem comprises six strands with its flagship feature the IBAT Premier League, a fantasy sports game and league with NFT integration. It will first feature cricket, with sports expected to be added as the platform expands.

Users can also buy virtual plots of land within the Battle Arena – a 3D world – while IBAT can also be staked and swapped, making the platform one of the top 10 emerging cryptocurrency projects.

IBAT was first listed on PancakeSwap last week and its price surged over 400% despite the general downturn in price action in the last seven days.

It is being listed on  LBank this week with the price expected to be significantly boosted once more.

3.    Lucky Block

Our final alternative to Ripple to consider is Lucky Block (LBLOCK).

Released earlier this year to huge hype, Lucky Block is an NFT competition platform designed to promote transparency and fairness in the online gaming world.

 

Along with a weekly main draw where up to $50,000 can be won, Lucky Block also hosts weekly NFT draws and other competitions. Those eye-catching prizes include $1 million in Bitcoin, VIP tickets for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, a Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT and even a house.

Its native token LBOCK has two versions – V1 and V2 – with V1 built primarily for DEXs.

The V2 version launched on MEXC recently and saw a boost in prixe – a further boost is expected from September 1 amid news that it will be listed on Gate.io, the fifth-largest CEX around.

LBLOCK is currently trading at around $0.002 and has been named as one of our most undervalued cryptos.
