24/7 Wall St
XRP's price dropped 52% after the SEC lawsuit win due to selling pressure and market reactions, despite initial gains.

Summary

Following Ripple's 2025 SEC lawsuit victory, XRP initially surged 11% but faced immediate selling pressure from early investors, dropping to $1.45 by May 2026. This 52% loss highlights market dynamics like 'buy the rumor, sell the news' and the importance of timing. While institutional ETFs and regulatory clarity improved XRP's fundamentals, the price remains below purchase levels, emphasizing that news-driven investments often underperform.
