📈Ethereum (ETH) is About to See “Liftoff” if It Closes Above $580
Ethereum is recovering higher from the $535 support zone against the US Dollar. ETH price must surpass $580 to start a strong rally towards $600 and $620 in the near term.
A successful break above the $570 resistance and a follow up move above the $580 level could start a strong increase. The next major resistance is near $600, above which it could rise towards the $620 level.

❓With Ripple, XRP, SEC lawsuit & dropping prices, should you hold or sell your coin?
SEC wins
This would mean XRP is an unregistered security and most exchanges will delist it causing a continuation of the drop in prices. Ripple will be fined heavily, with Garlinghouse and Larsen possibly sent to prison. However, this is unlikely, and there might be a settlement leading to more fines.
End game? XRP loses its value drastically; ripple’s partners will probably stop using their ODL that utilizes XRP to transfer funds and provide liquidity.
Ripple wins
This would cause recovery of XRP’s price and it continues as it normally would. The price would shoot at first leading to FOMO from the XRP army and a flurry of tweets saying “I told you so” causing a second wave of surge.

The new interpretive letter establishes that banks can treat public chains as infrastructure similar to SWIFT, ACH and FedWire, and stablecoins like USDC as electronic stored value.
