The Crypto analyst Elite Crypto declared war on XRP and here's why this is important. The situation with XRP is becoming increasingly complicated. Here’s what is happening now: **Problem #1: XRP price behaves like a stablecoin** Over the past two years, XRP has hardly moved in price - it trades in a narrow range with no hint of growth. The cryptocurrency, which was once in the top 3, is now in 7th place by market capitalization. The long-running lawsuit with the SEC, which began in 2020, is to blame for this. Yes, Ripple won part of the case last year - the judge ruled that retail sales of XRP to retail buyers are not securities. But then the New York court ordered a fine of 125 million, and the SEC is now demanding 2 billion. The case has been transferred to the appellate court, and uncertainty continues. **Problem #2: Chris Larsen donated to Kamala Harris** The co-founder of Ripple invested 10 million in XRP to support the presidential campaign of the Democrat. For the crypto community, this is like a red rag to a bull - many fear that the Harris administration could liquidate these assets, which would crash the price for regular holders. Elite Crypto clearly supports Trump and is unhappy with the current administration's anti-crypto stance. **Conclusion**: XRP is currently a mix of legal wrangling and political risk. It is no surprise that even major analysts are choosing to stay away.
