DTX Exchange (DTX) has regained momentum after a slight dip in the Ripple (XRP) network diverted the massive flow of investors to its fiery presale. As of December 20, DTX’s presale stage 6 has raised over $10.44 million, with more whale activity anticipated by expert analysts in the coming weeks. While Ripple’s price retraction has sparked a panic, it could rebound shortly. Ripple (XRP) Retests Historic Support After Retraction After consecutive weeks of continuous rallies and significant gains, the crypto market has witnessed a flash crash. CoinMarketCap's data shows that Ripple’s XRP plunged to a weekly low of $2.05 from a high of $2.8. While XRP has bounced off this support level, some investors have raised concerns over the recent price drop. Similarly, several analysts have said that the Ripple coin merely retested historical support. According to the Charting Guy, Ripple (XRP) only retested the 2021 high in the latest dip. He further explained that the Ripple token still has the exact same structure as it did during its explosive rally in 2017. According to his analysis, the bull market for XRP, one of the top crypto coins, is still "on track perfectly." CryptoKnight890 shared a Ripple price chart that affirms the position of the Charting Guy. According to CryptoKnight890, the altcoin price could pump as high as $3.5168, representing an increase of more than 60% from the current price range of XRP. Saeed Zaman, popularly known as TraderSZ on Twitter, has confirmed this stance as well. However, he sets his Ripple (XRP) price target a bit lower for this bull run. In his opinion, the XRP bull run could cap off at around $3.3308, which is just short of XRP's ATH. Ripple vs. SEC Update: Conflict Nears Critical Point On Thursday, December 19, Fox Business journalist Eleanor Terrett shared the details of a meeting between staffers for SEC Commissioners Hester Peirce and Mark Uyeda and the Digital Chamber. The Digital Chamber reportedly set priorities for the SEC divisions by considering the incoming administration’s pro-crypto agenda. In August 2024, Judge Analisa Torres ordered Ripple to pay a $125 million penalty for violating US securities laws. The penalty amount fell well short of the SEC’s demand for a punitive $2 billion penalty. The court noted that investors did not suffer pecuniary harm because of the violations, nor did Ripple commit fraud. A stay on the Ripple case may prompt the SEC to withdraw its appeal, setting the Programmatic Sales of XRP ruling as a crucial legal precedent for the US digital asset market. An end to the Ripple case would be a boon for XRP, plagued with uncertainty about the SEC’s appeal plans.

He beat Nick Kenny 4-0 to set up a mouth-watering fourth-round meeting with two-time champion Peter Wright. THE WORLD NUMBER ONE KICKS ON! Luke Humphries comfortably books his spot in the Last 16 with a 4-0 whitewash victory over Nick Kenny, averaging 98.59! 📺 https://t.co/pIQvhqYxEj #WCDarts pic.twitter.com/XAADalXD4Q — PDC Darts (@OfficialPDC) December 27, 2024 Kenny was unable to produce the form that saw him beat Raymond van Barneveld in the previous round and Humphries did not need to be anywhere near his best. “It was one of those games I didn’t want to take for granted,” he said. “I expected a tough game and I wasn’t firing, I felt there is so much more to give, I felt there was more to come out of me. “I didn’t want to give anyone an inch because they can take a mile. “I’m not going to give up this world title without a fight, I wasn’t at my best but when someone pushes me I know I can come up with the goods.” Earlier in the day Heta set the tournament alight on its resumption with a stunning nine-dart finish before bowing out. The Australian, seeded ninth, achieved darting perfection in the second set of his match with Luke Woodhouse to earn a cool £60,000 payday. However, his joy was short-lived as Woodhouse won a thrilling battle 4-3, having trailed 3-1. HEROIC HETA HITS THE NINE! 🔥 UNBELIEVABLE SCENES! 🤯 Damon Heta lands the second nine-darter of the tournament to raise the roof at Alexandra Palace! #WCDarts pic.twitter.com/DW6rhvFqez — PDC Darts (@OfficialPDC) December 27, 2024 Heta was millimetres away from throwing a nine-darter in the previous round when he missed the double 12, but he made no mistake this time in the first match after the Christmas break. Heta’s feat was the second time a nine-darter has been thrown in the 2025 tournament and the 16th of all time at the World Championship, following Christian Kist’s effort before Christmas. As well as landing the Australian a hefty payday, it also saw a lucky fan in Ally Pally win a £60,000, with £60,000 also being donated to Prostate Cancer UK. There were several other titanic battles, none better than Gerwyn Price’s sudden-death leg victory over Joe Cullen. Price looked like he was going to have an easy night when he coasted into a 3-0 lead, but Cullen hit back to send it to a decider, which went all the way. Cullen landed a ‘Big Fish’ 170 checkout to send the tie to a sudden-death leg on his throw but Price hit some big numbers to steal victory. “That was tough, I just wanted to get over the winning line,” he said during his on-stage interview. PRICE WINS A THRILLER! That might just be the game of the tournament so far! 💥 Gerwyn Price manages to break the Rockstars throw in the final leg of the game, and beats Joe Cullen 4-3 and books his place in the Last 16! 📺 https://t.co/pIQvhqYxEj #WCDarts pic.twitter.com/VnjnJxP0T0 — PDC Darts (@OfficialPDC) December 27, 2024 “He kept coming back, the crowd were way behind him. “I thought I was going to lose, but I kept in there right to the end and got the win. “He played some good darts at the right times. I put myself in that position, I got myself out of it and I’m still in.” Seventh seed Jonny Clayton also battled to victory after squandering a 3-0 lead against Daryl Gurney. Gurney then had six darts to send the decider to a tiebreaker but lost his nerve and Clayton stole a 4-3 win. Stephen Bunting and Peter Wright, who was suffering from a chest infection, enjoyed much more safe passages with routine wins over Madars Razma and Jermaine Wattimena respectively.
