2018 Market Ranking Table Shocks XRP Army: This Could Happen Again

An old ranking chart from 2018 resurfaced this week, bringing renewed energy to the XRP community. The image, shared by crypto influencer XRP Avenger (@XRP_Avengers), shows XRP at the top of the leaderboard with a valuation surpassing Bitcoin. It lists XRP at $2.38 with a market cap of over $238 billion. However, that figure reflects its fully diluted valuation (FDV), not its true circulating market cap at the time. XRP Avenger called on the community to watch XRP, as he expects the asset to surpass Bitcoin’s market cap and not just its FDV this time. While some dismissed the table as a relic of crypto history, others believe XRP can achieve this feat and see the chart as a reminder of the digital asset’s potential to disrupt the current market structure. Here is #XRP back in 2018 This could happen again You have been warned, All eyes on $XRP .. pic.twitter.com/PM3cLE1Di4 — XRP Avengers (@XRP_Avengers) August 3, 2025 Bitcoin remained dominant in 2018 and has remained the largest asset in the market since then, but the chart shows a brief point in history when XRP’s FDV briefly overtook both Bitcoin and Ethereum. That moment marked a psychological turning point for the XRP community and planted a vision that persists today of XRP leading the crypto market in both adoption and valuation.

The asset’s FDV crossed $200 million for the first time since 2018 in late 2024, and its spectacular surge between then and early 2025 helped it surpass ETH in this key valuation . Analysts and supporters pointed to this achievement as further validation of XRP’s trajectory. However, the focus has shifted beyond FDV. What the XRP community is calling for now is real growth in the asset’s actual market cap. Notably, XRP was the second-largest in the crypto market in 2014 , and briefly in 2018 when it rose to its previous all-time high. Because it has surpassed Ethereum in the past, experts are confident that the asset can do it again . However, Bitcoin is a much harder challenge. Can XRP Overtake Bitcoin? Bitcoin currently holds a market cap of $2.39 trillion. With XRP’s circulating supply sitting at 59.3 billion tokens, matching Bitcoin’s market cap would require a price of over $40.3 per XRP. That is almost a 15x increase from XRP’s current trading levels, but it’s not unheard of in the context of cryptocurrency cycles. Analysts have also set targets far above $40 for the current cycle, and if XRP can match their expectations, it could become the largest asset in the crypto market.
