Ripple’s XRP token is down 5% in the last 24 hours, falling below $0.50 for the first time since July 13. In Ripple’s legal battle with the SEC, the US regulator said Friday it should appeal a judge’s decision in July that the blockchain firm did not violate securities law in making XRP available to retail investors. Altcoins across the board are in the red to start the week, with XRP being one of the worst affected. The CoinDesk Market Index (CMI) is at its lowest point since mid-June. Bitcoin, on the other hand, continued the sideways movement experienced since the beginning of the month, down 0.5% at $25,670 at the time of writing.
