I think by themselves events like xrp win and bitcoin halving will not have any global impact on the market. We can only count on some localized pump that won't allow to update the ath of the market or ath of these cryptocurrencies. Until liquidity starts flowing into the market, there will be no bullrun. What could be the catalyst to bring liquidity to the crypto industry? Halving bitcoin? Not likely. Rather, some global changes, such as bitcoin being legalized in a number of countries, lifting the ban on cryptocurrencies in some countries, improvement of the economic situation in the world, lower inflation, etc.
You make sense. And if you think about it, this case ruling appears to have at least caused some positive light to the cryptos deemed as securities, hence the pump. News sentiments these days are either positive (they aren't that big to bring significant liquidity but positive nonetheless) or neutral these days, better off negative I guess.
It seems that everyone's positive and joyful moods have dried up and the market has moved to correction. There is no special excitement on the altcoin market either. The situation between XRP and SEC is more like a staged performance, where some influential person decided to stage such a trial, and SEC just found a reason for a court case. Such an excuse can be found with any cryptocurrency if you want to. My usual conspiracy theory
