XRP and Ethereum have started December off on a hot streak, with both tokens turning in substantial gains in the past month—as has the newly launched GameFi protocol Rollblock, which is bringing the $500 billion iGaming industry to Web3. The increasing interest in digital assets has capital flowing into all three projects, with one major catalyst being India’s Digital Rupee initiatives expected to pique interest in blockchain technology. Here’s why the smart money is flowing freely into XRP, Ethereum, and Rollblock.
Rollblock enters stage 9 on a high note with a $7 million presale raise
The hottest presale left on the board this year is entering stage 9 of its launch on a high note. Thus far, Rollblock has raised past $7 million in funding, indicating the massive traction it has gained by bringing in the premier GameFi protocol on Ethereum. If the early presale figures are any indication, Rollblock could far outperform the Ethereum and XRP price predictions for 2025 by a long shot. Rollblock is taking online gaming to Web3 by launching the premier crypto gaming platform with a level of DeFi functionality never before seen.
Besides offering thousands of games and sports gaming markets, Rollblock offers staking, deflationary tokenomics, and a revenue share. The latter offers $RBLK holders an opportunity to earn passive income from the platform’s revenues, which will be paid out at a fixed percentage on a weekly basis. The revenue share is a major factor driving Rollblock’s success as a presale, offering investors exposure to one of the hottest sectors in blockchain technology and the lucrative online gaming sector.
As of stage 9 of its presale, $RBLK tokens will be available at just $0.041. This offers prospective investors a rare opportunity to buy into a project on the verge of a breakout, as well as a project representing the next evolution of blockchain technology in the GameFi sector.
XRP price on pace to mint new all-time highs by EOY?
XRP has long been established as a cross-border payment protocol within blockchain technology. Long considered as a sleeping giant since hitting its previous all-time high of $3.40 in January 2018, XRP prices have long been suppressed due to the token’s issuer’s legal problems with the SEC. But since the election of Trump, XRP prices have gone on a veritable tear in the past month off the hopes that the long, drawn-out SEC lawsuit will come to an end, and that may very well be possible under an administration favorable to blockchain technology. As of press time, XRP was up 350% in the past month, representing a 4.5x gain as it trades around the $2.43 mark.
Ethereum finally goes on a tear
Ethereum, a pillar of blockchain technology, had been grossly underperforming against Bitcoin for the better part of the year. But, as of December, Ethereum has finally shown some positive price action indicative of its status as the second-leading cryptocurrency in blockchain technology. Known as the leading smart contract platform, Ethereum has been outperformed by Bitcoin and newer Layer-1 protocols like Solana. December rang in some good news, however, after Ethereum recorded a solid if unspectacular 27.9% gain in the past month.
