XRP’s 384% Surge Sparks Decoupling Debate

Published by

XRP is trading near $1.35 as reports highlight its strong performance over the past year, up 384%, outpacing both Bitcoin and Ethereum. The token has also shown lower correlation to other cryptocurrencies, something analysts say could make it more attractive for portfolio diversification. Some experts say this could eventually help XRP move somewhat independently from Bitcoin’s price swings. Ripple’s former CTO David Schwartz has even suggested XRP could one day grow larger than Bitcoin by market value, pointing to the speed of the XRP Ledger and its growing use in real-world payments.
