• The altcoin sector has seen several cryptocurrencies that show potential for price breakouts in 2024.
• Ripple and SEC’s lawsuit is still persisting with Ripple applying for Cross Appeal recently.

It is not novel that the US regulatory body, the Securities and Exchange Commission, has been targeting several cryptocurrency firms. At present, its lawsuit against Ripple has gained the spotlight, with the latest update being Ripple’s filing for the Cross Appeal. However, despite the lawsuit, Ripple’s XRP has managed to maintain a positive market sentiment, showing potential for price increases.

In the past few hours, XRP has factored in a modest price dip of 0.58% and was trading at $0.51 at the time of writing. On the other hand, the altcoin has shown increased activity in the past months in terms of on-chain activity and other advancements. The firm also debuted crypto custody services this month, showing strong potential for performance in 2025 as well.

This article identifies other such altcoins including Uniswap, Worldcoin, and Bittensor showing potential for significant growth and performance in 2025.
