A New Challenger Emerges: Could This Crypto Disrupt How We Transfer Money?
While Ripple’s XRP continues its impressive run—and with regulations potentially easing—the competition is starting to seriously up their game. Launched in 2012, Ripple entered the scene with a fragmented and somewhat inefficient cross-border payment system. Ripple solved this problem by offering a novel approach to cross-border payments—one based on blockchain and crypto, specifically XRP.
However, current macroeconomic developments and rapidly shifting market sentiment have worked against Ripple’s XRP. After posting a 250% gain in 2024, the XRP price is currently trading in a range between $2.30 and $2.45 this week. As Ripple’s XRP struggles to gain significant momentum, lacking a major catalyst, other cryptos are stepping up. Remittix, a crypto in presale, is attracting attention from traders and investors who also followed Ripple’s mission to improve cross-border payments.
Remittix: XRP 2.0 or a True PayFi Game Changer?
As a crypto in presale, Remittix has garnered positive feedback from analysts and traders, including being called an ‘XRP 2.0’. While both crypto projects are built on similar PayFi DNA, Remittix races towards its official listing with a revolutionary PayFi roadmap. With Remittix, it’s now possible to complete crypto-to-fiat settlements, expanding options for individual users and businesses. Additionally, Remittix aims to address the inefficiencies in cross-border payments—with its Pay API, payments are not only lightning-fast, they’re low-cost, with zero FX fees or hidden charges.
Users can simply connect their wallets, add crypto, and complete transfers to global banks. For businesses, they can now allow customers to settle payments in fiat while using crypto. With Remittix, you can also cash out or transfer your crypto in 50+ cryptocurrency pairs and over 30 fiat currencies.
Since Remittix leverages crypto and the blockchain, its Pay API users can expect stable and transparent transactions. Its smart contract operates on the Ethereum chain, with Blocksafu rating it as ‘Very Excellent’.
XRP Stagnates as SEC Delays Decision on Spot ETF Filings
As of today, the XRP price is hovering above $2.42, slightly up by 3% from yesterday’s market close. Since May 16th, XRP’s price has been somewhat erratic, and after dipping to $2.33, it now shows a bullish signal. With higher lows and consistent heavy trading volume backing the momentum, analysts are eyeing a breakout.
Although the SEC mentioned a delay in approving spot ETFs, XRP holders are looking towards another potential catalyst: the launch of Volatility Shares’ XRP futures ETF (ticker $XRPI). According to Eric Balchunas (@EricBalchunas), the fund has over $120 million in assets under management (AUM) and a trading volume of $35 million per day.
Remittix Is Poised to Outperform XRP
As one of the OGs in PayFi and cross-border payments, Ripple’s XRP has built a network and community. However, regulatory uncertainties and competition from other meme coins have slowed its progress in recent months.
Remittix, on the other hand, is backed by a solid PayFi plan and has plenty of potential to deliver significant returns for early adopters. Currently in presale priced at $0.0781, the RTX token is inching towards listing with further price increases expected. With less than 10% remaining in its current stage—it’s time to grab your RTX for higher ROI!
