 In a groundbreaking development, XRP, the "liberated" token, has surpassed <a href="https://u.today/heres-how-many-bitcoins-are-now-lost-forever-intotheblock" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin (BTC)</a> to become the highest volume asset on the crypto market. According to a report by smart data portal <a href="https://twitter.com/KaikoData/status/1680865430741700608?s=20" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Kaiko</a>, a staggering 21% of all crypto trade volume has been attributed to XRP since last week's court ruling.

 The unexpected announcement of <a href="https://u.today/ripple-cto-explains-why-xrp-lockups-for-investors-were-stopped" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP</a> being recognized as a nonsecurity last Thursday definitely sent shockwaves throughout the whole industry. What makes these statistics even more impressive is not just XRP's triumph over Bitcoin but the fact that it managed to capture a fifth of the multi-billion-dollar market within a matter of days. Just three hours after this news, almost two billion XRP tokens were traded on the Binance spot market alone.

 Interestingly, just a day before this monumental achievement, <a href="https://u.today/ripple-v-sec-xrp-dominates-crypto-market-with-soaring-value-as-verdict-looms" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">U.Today</a> reported, based on the same Kaiko data, that XRP had climbed to become the third digital asset by trading volume. This ascent was fueled by investors' anticipation that the lawsuit would soon be resolved, and their expectations proved accurate.

 One may attribute this seismic shift in XRP trading to the prevailing low volatility in the market at that time. The Bitcoin Volatility Index (BVOL), a benchmark of the crypto market, measured at a mere 14.78 on Thursday&nbsp;— comparable to levels seen in December, late April and June. Following the news of XRP's surge, the BVOL value skyrocketed by more than 5% in the following days, a significant jump.
