After Bitcoin (BTC) dropped below $100K on Tuesday, top altcoins, including XRP price, suffered a fatal crash. To make matters worse, unconfirmed reports suggest that the US Department of Justice (DoJ) is cleared to sell $6.5 billion BTC.

Despite the initial selling pressure, unconfirmed reports suggest that the US DoJ is cleared to sell the seized Silkroad BTC worth $6.5 billion.

Here are three reasons that support this bullish outlook for XRP.

This announcement comes from SBI CEO Yoshitaka Kitao, highlighting the transformative potential of Ripple’s hybrid remittance system.” In addition to Japan’s SBI, David Stryzewski claims that Bank of America has “integrated XRP for 100% of their internal transaction.” Reason 3: Bull Flag Hints $15 Target Since December 3, Ripple price has been hovering inside a bull flag continuation pattern. This setup forecasts that the trend will continue. In this case, the target is $15. The short-term correction caused by BTC’s collapse has not caused a dent in this bullish pattern, further enforcing the strength displayed by Ripple.
