XRP Breaks Above $0.40, as Ripple Pushes Against SEC

Despite the Ethereum Merge being a success, the price action on ETH/USD and most of the crypto market was disappointing, as investors expected Ethereum to explode after the successful move from power of work (PoW) to the power of stake (PoS).

Most of the affected cryptocurrencies by the Ethereum Merge are the projects that depended on Ethereum’s poor performance. Ethereum’s difficult scaling and the high gas fees forced a lot of investors to migrate to EVM chains. The Merge is expected to improve a lot in this regard, but the markets were less than excited, which sent the price down toward $1,200.
