Historical Analysis of Ripple

Ripple's token XRP has been trading since 2014. The coin was worth less than €0,01 in the first years. Starting from 2017 it started moving quickly though. Here an overview of the most important events of the past years.

2017

XRP was relatively stable at €0,006 at the start of 2017. But this is the epic bullrun of 2017 we are talking about, so expect plenty of fireworks.

The price shot up to €0,05 at the start of March. That was only the beginning, in May a new movement started. All of a sudden, XRP was worth €0,36! That might not look like much, but that is an increase of 5.900% in little under 4 months. 

But the party wasn't over just yet. Ripple closed the year at almost €2,00. A ridiculous 33.233% increase.

2018

Bitcoin reached its temprorary all-time high in December 2017, but altcoins did one better. In the first week of January, XRP shot up to €2,82. That is still its absolute all-time high.

This would have been a great moment to sell in hindsight. At the end of January the price was just trading around €1,00

XRP fell to its bottom of €0,24 in September. A ressurection followed, Ripple announced the release of its new platform xRapid. This new platform would use XRP for international transactions. Investors were very enthusiastic and the price was doubled in a few days.

XRP couldn't hold that price sadly. The coin closed the year around €0,36

2019

2019 was a frustrating year for XRP. the first half looked good, it grew to almost €0,42 in June. But the cryptocoin quickly fell after that. XRP reached its lowest point in 2 years at €0,17

2020

XRP started 2020 of well. The price shot up to €0,30 in February. From there it went downhill quickly again.

The rapid spread of the coronavirus left huge damages in the financial markets, XRP was no exception. The price reached a bottom of €0,12.

A nice discount, because in November the price almost went vertically up to €0,58.  Which in turn would have been a great time to sell the coins, after this the coin plummeted back to €0,17. This was mainly due to a lawsuit between teh SEC and Ripple.
