XRP Reaches 90% Profitability, Outperforms Ethereum and Chainlink

• XRP profitability outperforms major altcoins like Ethereum
• XRP stands out with growing institutional interest
• Ripple Advances Adoption with XRP Ledger Expansion

XRP’s profitability has jumped to more than 90% of its circulating supply, putting the token ahead of altcoins such as Ethereum, Dogecoin, Cardano and Chainlink, according to data from Santiment. Even though the price has remained relatively stable in recent months, most holders have acquired XRP at lower prices than it is currently trading at.

Only Bitcoin outperforms XRP, with 98,4% of its supply in profitable territory. Ethereum, for example, has only 71,5% of its supply generating profit. For analysts at Santiment, this profitability metric could indicate possible selling pressure, as many investors tend to take profits at times like these.

Despite a slight 6% weekly correction in XRP price, high on-chain profitability is seen by experts as a possible sign of support for future positive movements.

External factors have also fueled bullish expectations for the asset. The long-running legal dispute between Ripple and the SEC has seen important resolutions, even with recent procedural obstacles imposed by Judge Analisa Torres, who denied a joint motion on technical grounds.

Market sentiment remains positive, boosted by announcements such as VivoPower. The Nasdaq-listed company revealed the creation of a $121 million XRP-backed investment fund, signaling institutional investors’ confidence in the crypto asset.

Ripple’s blockchain infrastructure, XRP Ledger (XRPL), is also expanding rapidly. Dubai’s Land Department has adopted the network for a real estate tokenization project, underscoring its utility in real-world applications.

Furthermore, the traditional financial market has shown a growing appetite for XRP-related products. The Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) has launched XRP futures contracts, and the SEC is considering proposals for a spot ETF of the token, reflecting robust institutional interest.

With solid fundamentals, high institutional adoption and expanding utilities, XRP consolidates its space among the most profitable digital assets on the market.
