Ripple (XRP) has incurred some decent upwards momentum today after “FOMO” spread on Twitter based on an American Express blog post that mentioned Ripple for international settlements. This blog, however, is old and is not at all an official AMEX announcement, so traders should trade XRP with caution.
This blog post coincided very closely with the XRP price surge that occurred earlier today independently of the rest of the crypto markets, and it may have been caused by some misplaced hype surrounding the Ripple (XRP) mention on the AMEX blog.
