Ripple Labs, the mastermind behind the decentralized XRP Ledger and the XRP cryptocurrency that fuels it, has announced plans to extend its Liquidity Hub platform all the way to Australia and Brazil. This Liquidity Hub serves as the US fintech firm’s digital asset liquidity management service for sizeable businesses. It supports BTC, ETH, LTC, ETC and BCH, as well as USDT and USDC. However, notably, it does not yet extend support to XRP.

This sparks questions and assumptions with the exclusion of XRP sparking curiosity, yet, an air of optimism prevails. This is primarily because it hints at wider XRP adoption as the global expansion is a positive indication. As Ripple continues to offer more of its suite of liquidity products, more firms are likely to leverage XRP-powered services which could boost long-term XRP demand.

The optimism remains even as Ripple grapples with the US SEC, which the company is currently leading against in an ongoing lawsuit. The SEC is accusing Ripple of XRP sales, tagging it as an unregistered security. In the short run, the lawsuit’s developments may create waves in the price fluctuations, but the longer-term predictions remain bullish.

In terms of numbers, XRP was trading close to $0.50 per token, failing a push above certain resistance levels. If it overcomes this barrier, a quick test of $0.56 per token could be on the horizon, possibly indicating near-term gains of around 15%.

Shifting focus to diversification, a newly minted token worth considering is Bitcoin BSC (BTCBSC). BTCBSC adopts similar tokenomics to Bitcoin, taking investors back to 2011 when Bitcoin was valued at $1 per token. It currently runs on the energy-efficient Binance Smart Chain and is easily accessible within the Binance’s growing Decentralized Finance ecosystem. Moreover, staking BTCBSC could potentially yield attractive annual returns for the holders.

An analogous project, BTC20, an ERC-20 token operating on Ethereum, managed to snag a whopping $6 million in presale and has since demonstrated strong performance. This success story paves the way for Bitcoin BSC, hinting at even better performance given the Binance Smart Chain’s faster transaction speeds and lower fees.

However, potential investors must act speedily given the token’s hard cap raise target of under $4 million is due to be hit soon. All in all, the crypto market is one of high risk, and it’s savvy to tread carefully and responsibly in these waters.
