CoinGecko Finds the Top Trending Crypto Sectors: L2, NFTs, Memes Grab Investor Attention
Cryptocurrency aggregation platform CoinGecko has spotlighted the top trending categories of crypto assets on its platform as of the early hours of Thursday, March 20, 2025.
In a post on X, CoinGecko revealed the leading asset classes capturing user attention, including Layer 2 (L2), Proof of Stake (PoS), NFT, Exchange-based Tokens, Smart Contract Platform, and Made in USA.
According to CoinGecko, the trending category is a dynamic indicator based on the most frequent user searches on their platform.
At the time of their initial report, CoinGecko users were primarily seeking more information on L2 protocols, followed by PoS projects and the remaining listed categories, in that specific order. Given the metric’s fluid nature, crypto analysts often use it as a real-time gauge of short-term market sentiment among users.

How High Can XRP Price Go? Analysts Predict Next Targets
Ripple Labs-backed XRP led in the mild cryptocurrency rebound in the past 24 hours following the regulatory clarity from the U.S. SEC. The large-cap altcoin, with a fully diluted valuation of about $246 billion and a 24-hour average trading volume of about $10.5 billion, pumped over 7.7 percent in the past 24 hours to trade about $2.48 on Thursday, March 20, during the mid-London session.
The XRP futures open interest (OI) pumped over 18 percent in the last 24 hours to hover about $3.82 billion at the time of this writing. As a result of the heightened XRP price volatility, more than $36 million was liquidated from the leveraged market.
Mid and Long-term XRP Price Expectations
As Coinpedia has severally reported, XRP price has already confirmed a bullish breakout from a six-year triangular consolidation. From a technical analysis standpoint, XRP price is about to kickstart the next bullish phase towards the price discovery phase.
In the daily time frame, the XRP price must consistently close above the resistance range between $2.7 and $3 to confirm the onset of the next parabolic rally. Moreover, the XRP price has been forming a potential head and shoulders (H&S) pattern coupled with a bearish divergence of the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
Meanwhile, the XRP price has established a robust support level of around $2, which could hold in case of further correction in the near term.
Key Factors Driving XRP Growth
In the past two quarters, XRP demand has experienced a sharp uptick catalyzed by institutional investors working closely with Ripple Labs. Already, nearly a dozen fund managers – led by Bitwise and Franklin Templeton – have filed for a spot XRP ETF with the U.S. SEC.
With Ripple out of the hook from the litigation by the U.S. SEC, Brad Garlinghouse predicts that the agency will approve several spot XRP ETFs in the second quarter of 2025.
Meanwhile, the XRPL network has significantly grown in the past few years to a robust web3 ecosystem. The launch of Ripple USD (RLUSD) has helped increase the on-chain activity for XRPL.

The Russian Central Bank Wants To Reserve Bitcoin For The Rich
The president of the Russian central bank has drawn ridicule while trying to rein in bitcoin.
While the European Central Bank remains harsh towards bitcoin, the Russian one is not lagging behind. Its president, Elvira Nabioullina, proposes to “reserve it for the wealthiest individuals,” in a context where the gap between the EU and the United States regarding bitcoin is widening .
This is reported by the Moscow Times about the international payments that the Russian central bank is making in bitcoins to circumvent the Western financial embargo. Bitcoin proves to be a very valuable ally while waiting for international tensions to ease.
These BTC payments are open to banks, insurance companies, and investment funds. However, individuals need an annual income exceeding 50 million rubles (580,000 dollars) to benefit from it.
Of course, this restriction only concerns this “experimental system“ hijacked by the central bank. Buying bitcoins is absolutely not prohibited in Russia. That said, businesses are not allowed to accept it as payment.
Like Christine Lagarde, for whom bitcoin is “a way out”, Elvira Nabioullina prefers the CBDC. It has existed since last year, but nobody is using it.
This distrust contrasts with the opinion of Vladimir Putin, who stated a few months ago:
Who can ban bitcoin? No one. Whatever happens to the dollar, these new technologies will develop in one way or another.
Is it to preserve the margins of payment companies like Visa, Mastercard, or MIR (Russia)? Probably not, since bitcoin is far from competitive: 6 dollars on average per transaction in 2024.
Visa and Mastercard, for their part, take 0.3% on each card transaction (it’s much more outside of Europe and the United States). Their payments are therefore much cheaper in the overwhelming majority of cases.
Of course, it is possible to use the Lightning Network (LN) . Fees are 0.02% on average for transactions valued between 100 and 1000 euros. It’s 0.24% for transactions between 1 and 10 euros.
Unfortunately, we would have difficulty using the Lightning Network simultaneously. The reason being that depositing bitcoins into your LN wallet requires first completing an “on-chain” transaction.
In other words, it would take 50 years for each human to make a single transaction… Transaction fees would explode with every enthusiasm for the LN, preventing any lasting enthusiasm.
So there is not much to fear. Bitcoin can only remain a marginal payment currency due to the limit of 1 MB per block, which is at the heart of its decentralization.
Moreover, bitcoin cannot replace banks. For that to happen, governments would first have to agree to abandon their money printing presses. Unlikely, but let’s assume that’s the case.
Let’s imagine bitcoin is the one and only currency on earth. Let’s engage in a thought experiment by asking how to finance the six EPRs for which the bill is estimated at 70 billion euros.
Under normal circumstances, EDF would go to borrow from BNP Paribas, which would create these billions ex nihilo. These billions would then be destroyed as EDF repays them (except for interest, of course). That is the functioning of the “fiat system”.
But how to do that if the amount of money in circulation is fixed? How to find the equivalent of 70 billion in BTC? It would literally require persuading 7 million French people to each lend the equivalent of 10,000 euros for 15 years.
The scaling-up seems very difficult. Creating money ex nihilo appears essential for any complex society.
Not to mention the energy resources. Standard of living = Productivity = machines = energy (and especially oil). Without the abundant and inexpensive energy that productivity requires, wages cannot keep up with inflation exacerbated by the overflowing debts of governments.
All this to say that central banks have nothing to fear from bitcoin. Its low transaction throughput and fixed money supply prevent it from replacing payment companies and banks. Its superiority lies elsewhere.
Above all, bitcoin allows one to protect against inflation, which disproportionately affects those who cannot afford rare assets like premium real estate.
Conversely, anyone can appropriate the best store of value in the history of humanity (bitcoin). It doesn’t matter whether you have a million euros, 10,000 euros, 1,000 euros, or 100 euros in savings.
Bitcoin is poised to become the universal reserve currency. And that’s already a lot! Don’t miss our article: Bitcoin – Soon a Russian strategic reserve?
