Ripple’s <a href="https://cryptoslate.com/coins/xrp/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP</a> emerged as one of the rare gainers during a subdued 24 hours in the cryptocurrency market that saw Bitcoin (<a href="https://cryptoslate.com/coins/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BTC</a>) and other top digital assets lose their value. 
Data from CryptoSlate reveals that XRP surged by approximately 5%, reaching $0.53018 as of press time. This uptick follows Ripple’s significant victories during the reporting period as it secured licensing in Singapore and Judge Analisa Torres <a href="https://cryptoslate.com/judge-rejects-secs-request-to-appeal-ripple-decision/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">rejected</a> the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) plea for an interlocutory appeal.

Earlier today, Ripple <a href="https://ripple.com/insights/ripple-fully-licensed-to-provide-digital-payment-token-services-in-singapore/?utm_campaign=&amp;utm_medium=organic_social&amp;utm_source=twitter" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">said</a> its subsidiary, Ripple Markets APAC Pte Ltd, secured a “full” Major Payments Institution (MPI) license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) to provide digital payment token services in the country. The crypto payment country <a href="https://cryptoslate.com/singapore-approves-ripples-major-payment-institution-license-application/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">received</a> an&nbsp;in-principle approval from the regulator in June. 
The MPI license enables businesses to operate free from daily and monthly transaction limits. To qualify, the business must possess a Singaporean-registered company or branch, maintain a permanent business address for record-keeping, have a minimum capital of $250,000, and appoint at least one director with Singaporean citizenship or residency. 
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse described Singapore as a “progressive jurisdiction” that has ” developed into one of the leading fintech and digital asset hubs striking a balance between innovation, consumer protection, and responsible growth.” 
Besides that, Judge Torres’s decision provides a closing chapter to the legal tussle between the company and the SEC for this year, with both parties scheduled for trial by April 23, 2024.

Despite this recent surge, XRP still confronts substantial selling pressure due to Ripple recently releasing one billion tokens from its escrow system.

While the crypto payment firm immediately <a href="https://twitter.com/whale_alert/status/1708545983938699638" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">relocked</a> 800 million XRP, the company still holds 200 million tokens that could add more than $100 million in selling pressure to the market, potentially altering the current upward momentum of the asset.
