2025 was a very eventful year for XRP, as the legal battle between the US SEC and Ripple Labs, which had lasted for nearly four years, officially came to an end.
With the conclusion of the case, the regulatory hurdles that had been obscuring XRP have been removed, and regulatory clarity has been brought to XRP.
This has increased interest in and the price of XRP.
As a result, XRP emerged as the most traded cryptocurrency in 2025, a year that was generally considered weak for altcoins.
According to the data, XRP became the most traded cryptocurrency on Uphold in 2025.
The US cryptocurrency exchange confirmed this with a post from its X account, stating, “XRP became the most traded asset on Uphold in 2025, influenced by one of the most engaged and supportive communities in the digital asset ecosystem.”
Uphold also thanked the XRP community for their support, being the most active community in XRP’s success.
XRP’s success on Uphold is not surprising, as Uphold has long been one of XRP’s biggest supporters.
When the SEC filed a lawsuit, many US exchanges delisted XRP, but Uphold did not delist XRP and stood by it. The exchange stated that it would continue to treat XRP as a digital asset until a judge officially declared it a security.
Uphold also stood by XRP, pointing out that the SEC had not issued an explicit order to exchanges to stop trading XRP, and ultimately Uphold was proven right.
