XRP

Illustrious-Boss9356

I don't really consider BCH an "alt", in fact I think owning 1-1-1 BTC-BCH-BSV, is owning 1 "Bitcoin". But it's the stuff like XRP, ETH, SOL, L2's, L3's, etc etc... Infinite chains!

Escapement_Watch

no XRP has 100 BILLION tokens, not 50billion. But yes you can never get any real value from that. Maybe in 500 years if its still around? but XRP has no tech, is slow, and centralized so it probably wont be.

Negative_Salt_4599

Dude XRP has 50 billion tokens. You Cannot extract value out of that May tokens. Nonsense

SpaceballsTheCritic

Bitcoin has no value, before your crows click down hear me out. It was intended as a POC, and the world latched onto it. It has first mover advantage and wide industry adoption. But its value is no different than fiat in that its value in relative terms (e.g. priced against Dollars) it has some shiny a-tributes in technology and fixed supply but that is all it is. No smart contract. No scalable utility as a payments mechanism without additional layers. The other coins ETH, XRP, BNB, do have unique utility and function as an end payments system. My point? Bitcoin is a speculative investment and the general dumb cash base sees the other coins similarly and prices based on relative terms to btc. As their utility continues to expand, there will be a decoupling. I.e. we are moving past fruit to apples, oranges, and bananas.

StarScreamer

Reverse carry trade triggers a flood to XRP. Jake Claver be like.... 

Arijan101

XRP is highly overvalued garbage, even at this price. And it will go much,much lower.

Anxious-Coconut6468

Sorry anybody who tells you XRP hasn’t got a clue. Just pissing your money up the wall

PirateSKB

I'm more surprised that it ever lost parity with XLM honestly. It's really just a banker's coin, and XLM and XRP have similar tech but fairly different adaptions

topbossultra

There absolutely was a bull market. The 4 year cycle is far from done. We just didn't get the alt season we're used to (although we still definitely had more concentrated alt runs for SOL, XRP, HYPE, and some others). The difference that you experienced in alt coins was related to tighter monetary policy from the fed this cycle. Less liquidity was focused on fewer assets, so it was much harder to pump the broader market.

kwijibokwijibo

I dunno what they mean about inefficient markets - but a looooottttt of altcoin projects have turned out to be nothingburgers. Either solutions without a problem to solve, or solutions that simply don't work Some companies like Ripple have pivoted their business strategy - banks, etc. don't want to use XRP for their payments tokens, but they're willing to work with Ripple to build the infra The next few years will continue a big shakedown - all the nonsense projects will properly die off. Leaving pure gambling shitcoins and the most viable projects behind

Mammon84

Yeah, ETH and XRP barely made a new ATH and BTC could not even 2x its previous ATH. If this trend continues next bull cycle will be even worse. Crypto is slowly dying

YankeeDoodlePeguin

What are you talking about? BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL and BNB all reached a new ATH last year. That was a bull market.

GreenStretch

Top 10 doesn't mean very much in crypto. It changes a lot. Peak this cycle [https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20251005/](https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20251005/) Peak 2021 cycle [https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20211114/](https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20211114/) Peak 2017-8 cycle [https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20180114/](https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20180114/) So which coins, excluding stablecoins, are in all three BTC, ETH, XRP, ADA BTC is the only one with a big increase in fiat price. ETH was slightly above its 2021 peak in this cycles ATH. XRP was also up, but was way down in 2021 with the SEC case. ADA didn't match its 2021 peak. SOL and BNB were in the last two cycles, but SOL didn't get anywhere close to the optimistic predictions expecting it to match ETH's growth between 2017 and 2021. BNB did well. DOGE and TRON were sort of odd shots with DOGE roaring in 2021 and TRON reaching its ATH this cycle. The other thing is its possible to buy former top 10 coins when they're massively depressed in the bear market and hope to take profits, even if they don't reach previous ATHs.

Double_Parking_4390

Allocation in my portfolio is: $BTC- 55%, $SENT- 15%, $HBAR- 15% and then $XLM, $XRP, and $DAG make up the rest of my portfolio. Did get away from $ETC and bought some more bitcoin after it tanked. Stock wise just $SPY and $VOO.

Financial_Vanilla_47

Yeah and you'll be talking the same tune even if two years from now XRP is at 20 cents you'll be just as excited to ruin your hard earned money on the thing.

the stuff about XLM/Ripple and Gary Gensler in the new epstein logs... lol the XRP conspiracy wackos were right all along. Blockstream cofounder essentially weaponized the US Gov against the "competition" aka Ripple.

TooBasedForRedd-it

Almost everything in crypto is a scam , including XRP

CompletelyMoronic

I think comparing Bitcoin to Gold is crazy. Gold has been around since the beginning of time and it has always been sought after. It’s the best corrosive-free conductor known to mankind and its also used in jewelry. Bitcoin is nothing more than computer code, computer code that is already obsolete when you compare Bitcoin’s speed to XRP, Solana, IOTA, Stellar, etc. Bitcoin wallets can also be hacked or stolen much easier than someone breaking into your home and taking it out of your safe. There is also the quantum computing threat which may present issues in the future. Bitcoin is also subject to more government regulation like what happened in China. Prior to 2021, they mined 2/3rds of the world’s bitcoin legally, now it’s illegal and they represent less than 15% of mining capacity. Additionally, we can create another code just like Bitcoin with better speed and security, but we cannot create gold or silver from nothing.

Rare_Rich6713

I’m down on XMN too but decided to DCA in, I’m still holding XRP and SUI as well and have the rest in BTC.

Mobile-Passenger3214

Well last time it dips to 75k during 2025 ETH was $1500 and now its 2100 also XRP, Sol and BNB are resisting better than previous crashes so I think even if bitcoin dips to 50k this major altcoins will still be in the game but small altcoins will definitely die

Innergaming89

Btw 69k Eth 700 Link 3 XRP delisted

No_Giraffe_4647

Depends what you mean by bottom there is always money to be made somewhere just need where to look on my end I am surfing heavily on my CC position while everything is bleeding out but I am still long on small positions in BTC XRP ETH SUI LINK ZRO and medium exposition in HBAR. The current shockwave is going to last few more days then this will be the classic Yo-yo game with charts, 2026 will be full of up and downs until the greed and fear indicator stabilizes and investors come back on crypto market with greedy behavior.

Successful-Win-8035

This is natural correction. all the cash is going to flow back into a more usefull project like XRP.

curious-dude2007

That’s my issue, I’m down so much I don’t want to see it go, it’s thousands. I’m in on XRP, Flare and SUI. Flare I’m down 51%, XRP Im down 40%, SUI I’m down 50%. I have a bunch of other Altcoins that have just gone to shit (-90%). I only got into crypto in August last year, and it was going well for a little bit, but now I’m just cooked.

chief1988

Same. Just put I. A couple buy orders on BTC and XRP.

iTyrone__

Wait till XRP hits $1.20 then I’m putting in 2k.

zztopsthetop

If you are non emotional you should look at bitcoin with the same lens. Now, when you talk about Eth / Solana, while it is true that the ATH they reached is neglible compared to before, it is so far still the case that they have higher lows and average price over time. While the step for Eth from 1400$ to 4950 is only 3.5x, the floor went from 80$ to 800$. This still enables a lot of profit without having to time the exact top & bottom and also applies for several projects that I wouldn't touch. Getting the bottom right enough was stupidly easy in last several cycles, no matter if it was for Bitcoin or anything else. Getting a sell right enough was not too hard either. Now, in hindsight you can argue that you were better off doing this with bitcoin or even stacking sats, but that is hindsight. Imo, it is fine to hold on to some profits or a small part of your wealth on chain, but it is irrational imo for that to be the majority of your wealth. I think this applies for bitcoin & to a much greater extent for almost everything that isn't bitcoin. Last cycle you could make 50x in one cycle on Eth, 100x+ on Solana vs 10x on Bitcoin, so having a risk-adjusted allocation wasn't irrational. Those are also projects with utilization, support & a dev community, so the expectation that some development would attract attention to profit nicely is not completely braindead. That did happen for solana (& weirdly enough XRP), but not to the same extent for Eth. I'm not gonna fight you if argue that a lot of these fads are longterm destructive, but I think that falls outside the scope. There are also valuable and promising ideas around that could improve a lot of things. It is also the case that most of the net cashflow in any project goes to people who've been in for a significant time and sell some of their assets for whatever reason rather than to the traders. I could sell my onchain assets for current spot and be up x00%. Traders win sometimes & lose sometimes, but they act on both sides and pretty much even eachother out.

trillionSdollarstech

On a positive note, the irrational crypto market seems to heal. XRP, the token of the most overvalued desert network, broke the long term support that it had held since the election of the failed crypto president. If it stays underground in the next weeks while ETH recovers, there is hope for more rational valuations in the future

romestox

XRP 52 week low . Crypto was always a scam

No-Mess-2878

XRP 1.49

CerebralKnotz

No XRP🤔

NatBitty

I’d be shocked if this year XRP doesn’t go below $0.50, SOL below $20, and ETH below $1000. This isn’t a cycle it’s a continuation of the death of alts since 2021. Obviously Doge and the like will all continue towards $0. If you aren’t shorting idk what to tell you, this is so easy.

thebalancewithin

Not touching ETH for now, probably load up more at 1.7-2k, but other than that straight BTC, maybe XRP

No_Giraffe_4647

I have made my selection only 10 of them made the cut imo: BTC ETH ZRO SUI LINK AVX ICP CC XRP XMR

SM-

BTC and SOL are recovering nicely, but what’s going on with XRP and ETH? They’re lagging behind.

OkBuy4754

XRP's liquidity pockets at $0.48-0.52 are pure EV plays right now. Been scalping 8-12% swings there all week.

CKHiD_or_DIE

It's not unreal when you have double digit crypto exchange confirmations. Most tokens you see on reddit dont even get listed on 1 exchange . Much less 7 in the first month. Now CZ from Binance even acknowledges something from the founder on twitter. I got in on XRP at 13 cents. I got in on Dogecoin around 5 cents before the pump. Tell somebody less experienced that.

It is not wise to keep all your funds in one asset, but diversification should still be observed. Of course, you should take into account the price at which you bought XRP, but in any case, the current capitalization of MC can grow at least twice.

XRP isn’t a bad asset, but concentration risk is real. One trade shouldn’t decide your whole year.

idk i'd probably keep the ETH and swap some XRP for SEI. cheaper entry and way more room to run imo

bbqyak

Lots of alts shot up even in the past 2 years to all-time highs. XRP, SOL, XMR, ZEC, etc. If people really think we're going back to the days of Farm.Finance, BatmanSwap and PillsburyDoughCoin 25x'ing for no reason - that's wishful thinking.

EpicThirteen13

Honestly it’s a mix of strategy and research. Big names like XRP and Solana are solid plays if you want projects with track record. But the real asymmetric upside tends to be early-stage stuff that actually solves core problems instead of just riding hype. One project I’ve been following is Xelis (XEL). It’s an early-layer-1 with a fair launch (no premining), transparent dev activity on GitHub, and a design focused on scalability, security, decentralization, and privacy. It’s not a guaranteed moonshot ( nothing is ) but it checks more of the real fundamentals boxes than a lot of alt tokens popping up lately. Bigger projects = less risk, smaller projects = more risk but more upside if they deliver. Always DYOR (especially on tokenomics and tech) before buying.

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; XRP is testing quantum-resistant cryptography using Dilithium, a protocol more secure than Bitcoin's ECDSA and other quantum-proofing methods like FALCON. Dilithium Cryptography employs Lattice Cryptography, which uses mathematical noise to protect private keys from quantum computer attacks. As quantum computing advances, XRP's initiative positions it ahead in blockchain security, while other blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum lag in implementing quantum-resistant measures. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

CapitalIncome845

Stablecoins won. Sorry, XRP.

reddiculed

Why is XRP always supposed to be trading on these huge macro tips hype? It’s just another shitty balls old alt, no? It’s fairly correlated imho. If you’re an altcoin, at a certain point you gotta admit it.

scott_in_ga

shorting XRP has worked out great (esp today). Ah, yes, Black Rot seems to be it. How do you use Terrazole? did you put it into water and submerge the plant? Would I do that before I change the medium? thankfully it's the only one of my orchids to get this

Just-Complaint-2094

Hahahaha. If only. XRP will be lucky to hit 2.50 by year end. Every week new “breaking news” with XRP being implemented and nothing happens I’m sitting on some for the lotto ticket chance something happens but more than likely XRP won’t hit 5.0 by 2035

FrankSlipHelp

I short XRP, also long it, also hodl it, up or down matters none since money can be made on the short period, long period hodler here, have not shorted leverages and see you do? How’s that worked out? Also, my black spots ended up being pythium due to poor drainage and air circulation where I had mine at, ended up using Terrazole and changing medium and adding a small small fan nearby on a timer.

btw, i'm loving XRP's huge downward dildo this morning! lol

Bitcoin, Solana, XRP, and Hbar if you ask me.

Geo-USA

This is the way. With something speculative, only invest what you can afford to lose and have patience. I expect the 4 year bitcoin cycle to continue. It is programmed in the code after all. Next cycle peak should be in 2029. I will start DCA buying again this fall. Maybe, just maybe the layer ones like ETH, SOL, and XRP will take off this year and it will not be such a bad crypto winter. 2022 was ugly.

PapaCryptopulus

At this point in time XRP is the only answer if you want massive upside. Japan along with global economics a failing USD and Clarity Act passing will cause XRP to surge to new highs soon

badplayz99

Of course, number 1 BTC, SOL and ETH will still show themselves. From the TOP 10, I would still look at XRP

Post is by: FeedNo1628 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1qpx7ai/why_will_utility_coin_adoption_result_in_higher/ I have a large investment in utility tokens (XRP, XLM, ETH, etc.), so please understand that this is not FUD, it is just a healthy test of my thesis as all investors should do with all investments. Last year I belonged to a paid discord run by a reputable and knowledgeable host, with a lot of people who seemed educated in what they own and 100% committed. I asked a few questions regarding why mass adoption by institutions was guaranteed to make the value of the coins go to the moon and I never did receive a logical and adequate response that satisfied me. I assumed it was so clear and simple that no one wanted to take the time to explain it to me, and I assumed that they just have a much deeper understanding than me, and stayed heavily invested. Fast forward a year, every day I'm seeing youtube videos talking about all these major financial and industrial institutions adopting utility coins as the backbone of their processes, yet the value of the coins does not move at all, just sideways near-term and continuing slowly downward long-term. "Experts" now explaining the golabal money supply, saying crypto is next after money rotates out of prescious metals, there's an issue with the yen carry trade, etc. It brings me back to my original questions and I'm wondering if they did not explain to me because they did not know either. Here goes: Financial institutions are adopting utility crypto networks as a tool to move value, this is clearly happening at a fast pace. The value is not in the tool itself, it is still in the old-school non-fiat hard assets like precious metals, real estate, bonds, etc. that are being moved on the network. If I'm an institution using a tool, why would I want the tool itself to appreciate substantially in value, wouldn't this be counter-productive in that it increases the cost of me using the tool? If the tool gets cost-prohibitive, wouldn't I seek another similar but less-expensive tool? (there are many options and new ones could be created out of thin air if there is demand for new cheaper ones). If the current tool I'm using knows I have this option, wouldn't they just create more coins to reduce the scarcity factor to keep the price of the coins lower so I don't move to another one as a means to self-preserve the company/entity/business that has the business interest in me using that tool? (Ripple, Hedera council, etc.). Similiar example from the past: It is said that during the gold rush out west the people who made out the most were those selling the shovels. After you bought a shovel the "shovel dealer" just restocked from suppliers in the East. Once people noticed this, more "shovel dealers" popped up and the cost of shovels went down. Once you bought a shovel and the market was flooded your shovel became pretty much worthless, no way to get your money back if you didn't find enough gold. What is different with utility coins? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

respectandmanners

So, basically, one has USDT in one's wallet, and when one wants to spend the USDT, then there's an automatic operation that converts USDT to RLUSD on XRP, which is then further converted to USD to send on VISA? I wonder how much the gas fees are per transaction to do all that. Not sure why something like USDT on TRX or ETH straight to USD isn't a better choice and then just skipping the USDT->RLUSD->USD conversion

b-loved_assassin

Right. the majority of the market, top 50 coins or so included, has been bleeding since like October, but somehow XRP is the only one at risk of collapse lmao

Letsgotothemovie

XRP was always going to zero and now you can WAGER CRYPTO ON SPORTS on Coinbase. This will be the new crack cocaine for XRP bag holders and it’s gonna be HYSTERICAL to watch. Coinbase is going to be a bookie and they will be “winning” massive amounts of shitcoins like XRP and as their bag grows and the price inevitably drops they will be dumping as much of this trash as possible sending the price lower faster.

By equiserrepe. While the paper dollar teeters by design, a new system of financial pipelines is emerging from San Francisco. Is XRP the lifeline or the Trojan horse of the new Trump era? For observers of the global financial system, January 27, 2026, will be marked as the day theory became infrastructure. With the launch of Ripple Treasury, a platform that amalgamates 40 years of technical expertise with the agility of blockchain, Ripple has not only launched a product; it has presented a functional alternative to the antiquated SWIFT system. The move is as timely as it is provocative. Currency as a Weapon In Washington, the air is thick with a deliberate paradox. The Trump administration has been unusually candid about its desire to devalue the greenback to revive American manufacturing. However, devaluing the world's reserve currency is a major undertaking. This is where the CLARITY Act comes in, whose vote this Thursday promises to grant digital assets the legal status that institutional capital demanded to enter the market en masse. The strategy appears to be: devalue the "paper dollar" to gain competitiveness, while building a "digital dollar" on private and efficient tracks. By officially recognizing XRP as a utility asset, the United States is not abandoning its hegemony; it is migrating it to a cryptographic cloud where velocity of circulation compensates for the loss of face value. Geopolitical Highlights: The Bridge to the East • The BRICS Alternative: Russia, leading the bloc that includes Brazil, India, China, and South Africa, has accelerated its search for an independent payment system. Reports from 2024 and 2025 confirm that the BRICS are exploring the use of XRP as a "bridge currency." The goal is to settle instant cross-border transactions without a single cent passing through the oversight of US correspondent banks. • The Asset Paradox: Although Ripple is a San Francisco-based company, the XRP asset is technologically decentralized. This autonomy allows Moscow to use the network without the company's approval, in the same way that the Bitcoin protocol is used, making XRP neutral territory in a financial war. • • Super Thursday Diplomacy: Rumors are circulating in the corridors of power about a "new diplomacy" from Trump. The CLARITY Act could be the tool to allow Russia access to regulated digital rails (like the XRPL) in exchange for concessions in peace or energy treaties. It's 21st-century Realpolitik: if you devalue the dollar, you need your adversaries to operate on a system that, although digital, you still oversee. • The Digital Ruble: Russia is planning the mass launch of its CBDC (Digital Ruble) by mid-2026. Experts point out that its architecture is "suspiciously compatible" with Ripple's technology, suggesting that the gold standard for central bank digital currencies has already been dictated from California. • The Digital Ruble: Russia is projecting the mass launch of its CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) by mid-2026. Experts note that its architecture is "suspiciously compatible" with Ripple's technology, suggesting that the gold standard for central bank digital currencies has already been dictated from California. The St. James Street Verdict "Super Thursday" isn't just about whether a token goes up or down a few cents. It's the verdict on who will control tomorrow's liquidity. If the CLARITY Act passes, Ripple will have achieved what seemed impossible: transforming an asset under legal siege into the gold standard of modern treasury. In the grand chess game between monetary devaluation and technological efficiency, the board seems to be tilting, finally, in favor of digital rails. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

ExpertLocality

This reads painfully accurate. XRP loves to pump on historic news then immediately rug anyone who shows up late

Optimal-Repair-5289

I get the TA comparison, but polymarket pricing doesn’t scream total collapse yet. There’s still decent probability assigned to XRP catching a regulatory driven bid if liquidity flips risk on again. Could be more chop than straight down

iRysk

XRP is one of the biggest jokes in the industry. And now that they’re facing competition from Swift their days are numbered. They bring nothing novel to the table anymore and they have no moat

Prahasaurus

XRP is a joke, it's been a scam from the beginning. It's basically a boomer meme coin. The idea that Swift will run on XRP is comical, Ethereum has already won most of DeFi. It's comical anyone with half a brain considers this project for anything other than short term speculation, similar to DOGE or FARTCOIN.

XRP is so logical it breaks people's brains and they try to gaslight themselves out of believing in it. Fools. I'll wave from my lambo dont worry

It would be if XRP was still $0.60. I wouldn’t expect it to outperform Bitcoin much from here for the rest of this cycle. It’s already had its run.

Fair but not a constant. Is it the volatility difference in XRP when compared with BTC that makes it attractive?

Ripple sells conjured XRP tokens to fund the development of RippleNet, which they then sell access to by entities that don't hold or use XRP at all. I wish I could buy equity in Ripple so that I can get in on that action.
