Just one hour ago Coinbase published a blog post titled “How to buy XRP” which details in 3 simple steps how to buy the world’s 6th largest crypto, XRP.

Although Coinbase has not allowed XRP to be traded on their platform for more than a year now, this seems to point to signs that Coinbase may soon again re-list XRP.

The possibility of a re-listing also signals that Coinbase is confident in XRP’s possibility to win their current multi-year lawsuit.

The Ripple case seems to be going better than expected. Meanwhile the SEC is realizing that attacking crypto is politically unpopular (because it harms consumers). https://t.co/ePLnbqNLwU

Coinbase will no doubt be attempting to attract new XRP customers to their platform that are currently holding their assets on a defi wallet such as XRP favorite, Atomic Wallet.
