XRP has surged ahead of Tether to become the world's third largest cryptocurrency. This rise is fueled by multiple factors, including potential regulation news and significant purchases by major investors.

Impact of RLUSD Stablecoin on XRP Price

According to Fox News, the NYDFS may soon approve Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin, with a launch expected on December 4. This move could affect XRP prices. Additionally, SEC Chair Gary Gensler's possible resignation may also contribute to a more stable outlook for the company.
