On March 3rd, Ripple(XRP) declined by approximately 2.4%, with the price around $1.36 and a market capitalization close to $83 billion. This fluctuation was influenced by a global risk asset correction and geopolitical tensions. Ripple announced an expansion of its payment platform to support the stablecoin RLUSD, which could put pressure on XRP demand. Despite the price decline, platform upgrades may bring positive changes for long-term development.

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson questions the SEC's new digital asset rules, pointing out that XRP could be classified as a security due to Ripple's control of a large supply. Hoskinson warns that these rules could negatively impact proof-of-stake networks and notes that the bill might create a two-tier system, requiring new projects to demonstrate decentralization to attain commodity status. Ripple supports a friendly bill, believing the future outlook is optimistic. This discussion highlights the high uncertainty in the regulation of digital assets in the United States.
