XRP Blasts Past $13B Trading Volume as BitPay Integration Kicks In
XRP has been added to BitPay Wallet, allowing users to buy, sell, and use Ripple's token for payments. The integration expands XRP's reach beyond traditional exchanges and places it within a payments-focused ecosystem with millions of active users.
The trading volume of XRP surpassed $13.61 billion in 24 hours, with a market capitalization of approximately $86.69 billion. This represents a significant increase in market activity, with XRP recording a 17% gain in the last session.
The self-custodial BitPay Wallet allows users to retain full control of their private keys, reducing reliance on centralized platforms. This addition is part of a broader expansion phase for the XRP ecosystem, with Ripple working alongside Clearpool and Cicada Partners to bring institutional-grade credit to the XRP Ledger.
