According to the National Cryptocurrency Association, XRP is the 6th most popular crypto in the US.US Crypto PopularityThis data indicates that despite the SEC vs. Ripple lawsuit not being formally closed, investor confidence in the blockchain and its native token remains notably high. Hence, once the SEC releases an official statement on the settlement, 67% of US traders who are aware of Ripple may flock to the altcoin, and spark a massive price gain.Meanwhile, whale activity hints that large investors are leaning towards a bullish XRP price prediction in May after acquiring a staggering 200M tokens this week alone. Per Santiment data, those holding between 10M and 100M Ripple tokens have increased their holdings from 7.59 billion to 7.79 billionXRP Whale Supply BalanceThe high rate of adoption by US investors and the whale accumulation are bullish indicators and may lead to an explosive rally for the XRP price.
