Prediction: XRP (Ripple) Will Outperform Bitcoin and Ether Over the Next Year
Bitcoin and Ether face headwinds while XRP has multiple tailwinds.
Cryptocurrencies are some of the most volatile assets you could invest in. But those willing to hang on for the ride can experience some staggering returns. For example, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) is up 2,370% since the start of 2019 as of this writing on February 14. Ether (CRYPTO: ETH), the native token for the Ethereum blockchain, is up by 1,650%.
But not every token is a winner in the world of crypto. XRP (CRYPTO: XRP), the cryptocurrency used by the XRP ledger and RippleNet, increased just 34% between 2019 and November of last year. It was mired by an SEC lawsuit alleging that the token was a security and by other setbacks preventing widespread adoption. However, with a new administration in the White House, investors have piled into the coin. And the run might not be over yet.
Even after a stellar run in the last three months, XRP could outperform both Bitcoin and Ethereum over the next year. Here's why.
