Shiba Inu (SHIB), XRP, and Bitcoin (BTC) were among the top 3 most traded crypto assets on the WazirX crypto trading platform in June.
Amid the boring state of the crypto market, XRP and Shiba Inu investors continue to buy and sell hefty amounts of both crypto assets on different trading platforms daily and monthly.
Among the many popular crypto exchanges that consistently record a huge volume of trades involving the sixth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, XRP, and the canine-themed decentralized token SHIB is WazirX. Launched in 2018, WazirX is said to be a part of the Binance ecosystem and has a native token with the ticker WRX.
Per a Monday report, the Indian-based digital assets trading outlet with over 400,000 registered users revealed that XRP and SHIB were among the top three most traded assets in June. However, the report failed to mention the exact volume traded for each of the widely adopted assets.
While the leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin was the first on the ranking per the update, Shiba Inu and XRP were placed second and third, respectively, in terms of volume traded within the 30 days in June 2023.

Why the Interest in SHIB and XRP?
This growing interest in SHIB could be due to the upcoming Shibarium mainnet launch as investors speculate a price surge. Likewise, the team has promised that more substantial developments and projects would be onboarded into the SHIB ecosystem post-mainnet Shibarium launch.
On the other hand, the anticipation of a positive ruling for Ripple and XRP in the longstanding SEC lawsuit could be the motivation behind the rising interest in the XRP Ledger native token.
