The currency $XRP topped the charts.
Headlines in recent years due to the ongoing legal battle between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
But what would have happened if you had invested $10,000 in $XRP three years ago?
Investing $10,000 in XRP in 2022
On June 1, 2022, the trading price of XRP was $0.4219 at the opening.
An investment of $10,000 at that time was approximately equivalent to 23,692 XRP.
The price of $XRP at that time was the result of a steady decline that began in December 2021.
In the months following June 2022, the token managed to bounce back slightly and maintain a price above $0.40 during the last quarter of the year.
The first four months of 2023 saw slight fluctuations, with the price of Ripple falling to $0.3771 on March 1, then rising to $0.5385 on April 1.
And over the next eighteen months, the price of the currency continued to fluctuate from its high of $0.40 to its low of $0.60, before gaining strong momentum in 2024, reaching $1.94 on December 1, and continuing to grow since then.
How much would you have now?
At the time of publication, on June 16, 2025, the trading price of XRP was exactly $2.25, an increase of 433.25% from its opening price on June 1, 2022.
In other words, the amount of 23,692 XRP that you would have bought for $10,000 three years ago is now worth about $53,307.
This represents an increase of approximately 433%.
These returns are not to be underestimated given the volatility of cryptocurrencies.
In fact, XRP is still down by -41.3% from its all-time high of $3.84 on January 4, 2018, and there is no indication that the same type of investment you could have made three years ago would yield results today, especially since the future of the token is completely uncertain as the market awaits the resolution of the Ripple v. SEC case, which could decisively affect alternative currencies.
