The XRP price has dipped by 2% in the past 24 hours, sliding back down to $0.522666 after rising in the wake of a federal court's denial of the SEC's motion to appeal the July ruling in its case with Ripple.
XRP is now up by 4.5% in the past week and by 4% in the last 30 days, with the altcoin also having risen by 54% since the beginning of the year.

And with the market also showing some signs of recovery earlier this week, XRP could be in for some big gains in the near future.
XRP's chart is in a mixed position, with its technical indicators neither particularly or particularly weak.

Either way, XRP's fundamentals received some much-appreciated reinforcement this week when Judge Analisa Torres denied the SEC's application for an appeal on certain aspects of her ruling from
