Every month, 21Shares research team will present the cryptoassets of the month that increased or dropped in value by more than 15%. With a data-driven approach, we highlight the most important developments and events causing price movements.
Figure 1: 30-Day Performance: Cryptoassets of the Month vs. Traditional Asset Classes
XRP Ledger (XRP)
XRP traded up 42.80% in the past month as traders speculate that its legal battle against the SEC seems to be nearing its end. In December 2020, the SEC filed a lawsuit against Ripple, arguing that XRP satisfies the Howey test’s requirements and is thus a security under US laws. On September 17, 2022, both parties agreed to forgo a trial, opting for a summary judgment. A Bloomberg senior litigation analyst, Elliot Stein, estimates that a ruling will happen within the next three months. Furthermore, exchange data from CoinGecko revealed that the XRP surge was primarily driven by South Korean traders. On March 29, XRP trading made up 37% of all volume on Bithumb and 18% on UpBit, the two largest South Korean exchanges by trading volume.
Stellar (XLM)
Stellar’s native token XLM rose 28.81% over the past month. On March 13, it was announced that Stellar would be connected to Polkadot and its ”canary network” Kusama via the newly built Spacewalk bridge. On March 28, Coinme’s wallet integrated USDC on the Stellar network. The move aims to target the cash remittance market, as Coinme is the most extensive crypto-cash network in the US, with over 40,000 locations nationwide. Regarding Stellar Aid Assist, the aid disbursement system leveraging the Stellar blockchain in collaboration with Circle and MoneyGram is being used in pilot programs by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to deliver cash assistance to internally displaced persons in Ukraine. The program aims to reach 5,000 persons by April.
Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin rallied 23.03% in the past month on the back of a looming banking crisis. On March 13, the Federal Reserve had to step in to protect all depositors of Silicon Valley Bank, which experienced a bank run two days before, and of crypto-friendly Signature Bank, controversially shut down by its state chartering authority. Then, on March 19, UBS agreed to buy Credit Suisse in an emergency rescue deal brokered by Swiss authorities. Meanwhile, Bitcoin decoupled from risk assets like stocks and showed an increased correlation to Gold as investors turned to it as a hedge against bank risk. At its core, Bitcoin is a non-sovereign form of money that exhibits unique characteristics (trustless, permissionless, and censorship-resistant, among others). Indeed, one of Satoshi Nakamoto’s primary motivations for creating Bitcoin was to have an alternative form of money outside central banks’ control.
