按市值计算，XRP 超越 USDT 成为第三大最有价值数字资产

Ripple Labs 的 XRP 目前已成为市值第三大的数字资产，在排名中再次超越 USDT。

Now the third most valuable digital asset by market capitalization, XRP has once again surpassed USDT in the rankings. The currency is currently trading at $2.42 per token, boasting an increase of 1.12% throughout the day.

现在，XRP 再次超越 USDT，成为市值第三大的数字资产。目前该货币的交易价格为每枚 2.42 美元，全天涨幅为 1.12%。

Longer timeframe charts reveal an even more optimistic outlook on the recent performance of XRP. Over the last 7 days, the asset gained a whopping 13.46% in value. During that same period, its market capitalization gained over $20 billion in value, currently sitting at a total of $141.12 billion.

更长的时间框架图表揭示了 XRP 近期表现的更加乐观的前景。在过去 7 天里，该资产的价值飙升了 13.46%。同期，其市值增加超过 200 亿美元，目前总计 1,411.2 亿美元。

This most recent surge led the currency to surpass Tether’s $137 billion market capitalization, cementing the currency once again as the third most valuable digital asset out there. Since early December, XRP and USDT have been going toe to toe to maintain the third-place position. While the end of the year market retraction made it look like XRP would lose the race, recent developments in Asia have boosted investors’ optimism toward the project.

最近的飙升导致该货币超过了 Tether 1370 亿美元的市值，再次巩固了该货币作为第三大最有价值数字资产的地位。自12月初以来，XRP和USDT一直保持着第三名的位置。虽然年底市场回落让 XRP 看起来将输掉这场竞赛，但亚洲最近的事态发展提振了投资者对该项目的乐观情绪。

A couple of days ago we reported how up to 80% of the Japanese banking sector was likely to adopt XRP as a way to facilitate cross-border payments via the XRP ledger. At the time of this report, XRP traded at $2.17 — only a couple of days after the asset had already gained 11.52% in value, proving how confident the market is on the new probable deal between Ripple Labs and Japanese banks.

几天前，我们报道了多达 80% 的日本银行业可能会采用 XRP 作为通过 XRP 分类账促进跨境支付的一种方式。截至本报告发布时，XRP 的交易价格为 2.17 美元——就在几天前，该资产的价值已经上涨了 11.52%，这证明了市场对 Ripple Labs 与日本银行之间可能达成的新交易的信心。

Can XRP Regain The $2.90 Zone?

XRP 能否重回 2.90 美元区域？

This week’s surge in value has led the asset to recover the $2.40 zone. Prior to the retraction seen from December 18 until December 30 led the asset to go as low as $2.02.

本周价值飙升导致该资产收复 2.40 美元区域。在此之前，从 12 月 18 日到 12 月 30 日的撤回导致该资产跌至 2.02 美元。

The current zone XRP trades at has historically been a “make or break” margin, serving as both support and resistance even during 2018's historic rise to $3.32. Looking ahead, the currency could be positioning itself for another major rally later down the month, as major developments in the U.S. Government unfold.

从历史上看，XRP 的当前交易区域一直是“成败”的保证金，即使在 2018 年历史性上涨至 3.32 美元期间，它也充当支撑和阻力。展望未来，随着美国政府的重大事态发展，该货币可能会在本月晚些时候再次大幅上涨。

On January 20, Donald Trump will take office as the next United States President. His electoral win on November 5th has positively affected the cryptocurrency market, with many attributing the Republican’s victory to new hopes of a more crypto-friendly American government.

1 月 20 日，唐纳德·特朗普将就任下一任美国总统。他 11 月 5 日的选举胜利对加密货币市场产生了积极影响，许多人将共和党的胜利归因于对加密货币更加友好的美国政府的新希望。

Moreover, on the same date, the currency SEC Chair Gary Gensler will step down from the position. This is arguably an even more impactful event than Trump’s inauguration as Gensler has often been viewed by cryptocurrency enthusiasts as a great rival to crypto development in the nation.

此外，同日，货币 SEC 主席加里·詹斯勒 (Gary Gensler) 将辞去职务。这可以说是比特朗普就职典礼更具影响力的事件，因为加密货币爱好者经常将 Gensler 视为美国加密货币发展的强大竞争对手。

XRP was among the cryptocurrencies that gained the most value since the election, mostly because of its public antagonism towards Gensler. Once the current SEC Chair resigns, investors can expect a lot of volatility in the market, particularly for Ripple Labs’ currency.

XRP 是自选举以来价值最高的加密货币之一，主要是因为它公开反对 Gensler。一旦现任 SEC 主席辞职，投资者预计市场将出现大幅波动，尤其是 Ripple Labs 的货币。
