The broader crypto market rose in response to a weaker jobs report released Friday, which seemed to boost the potential of a rate cut in the upcoming Fed meeting scheduled for September.

Cryptocurrencies returned to green afterward, but the rise was shortlived, followed by a drop.

At press time, XRP was down 0.85% in the last 24 hours to $2.80 after reaching an intraday high of $2.88.

CME futures recently gave a recap of August growth, which saw a record $36 billion in OI for Crypto futures and options. XRP stole the spotlight as it reached an all-time high in open interest as institutional activity expanded beyond Bitcoin.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse took to X to highlight the recent milestone, noting XRP's impressive surge in open interest: "Per CMEGroup data, XRP Futures contracts were the fastest-ever (just over 3 months) to hit $1B in open interest."

This week, the credentials amendment was activated on the XRP Ledger mainnet.
