XPR Network (XPR) Coin Trends as the Community Welcomes the "$XRP Army"

2024 was a big year for crypto token launches, and amid the rise of new altcoins and memecoins, some older coins were forgotten, but the beginning of a new year paved the way for the rise of older digital coins to re-emerge, including XPR, the native cryptocurrency of the XPR Network (formerly Proton).

2024 started with a bang for crypto tokens, and while new altcoins and memecoins continue to hit the market, some older coins are also making a comeback, including XPR, the native cryptocurrency of the XPR Network (formerly known as Proton).

But before we delve into XPR's recent surge, let's clarify that XPR is not the same as XRP, the native token of the XRP Ledger. They are two separate cryptocurrencies.

Now, back to the story. The XPR coin has picked up steam over the last few days, registering a staggering 200% increase in the past week. The token has been up more than 10% in the day and over 300% in the last two weeks.

So, what's the $XPR Network all about?

As mentioned, XPR is the native crypto asset of the XPR Network, a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) blockchain and smart contract platform that caters to both peer-to-peer transactions and consumer applications.

The Layer 1 blockchain is designed for scalable and sustainable computation, enabling developers to easily and securely launch tokens and build a range of blockchain-based products, including non-fungible tokens (NFTs), lending markets, and more.

Here are some key features of the blockchain:

With growing interest in the XPR Network, especially in light of the recent XPR price hitting $0.08 and rallying toward $0.1, trading volumes have surged to over $167 million in the last 24 hours.

Long-time XPR holders welcomed newcomers into the fold, with one X user specifically welcoming the "$XRP Army," referring to the community around the XRP token.

One user highlighted the XPR token's spike and potential surge toward $0.1 as "very long overdue," considering how the digital coin has had a relatively stagnant price movement since 2022.

Well-followed crypto trader Atlas included the XPR Network in his list of Top 15 projects to watch this year, noting how the blockchain enables building "with high scalability and compliance."

Even public speaker Joel Brown couldn't help but notice how XPR was "holding strong while the rest of the crypto market dumps $BTC and $XPR."

It remains to be seen whether the blockchain and its native token will continue to gain traction this year and if, as Atlas projected, will become a major player in the blockchain world in 2025.
