XRP has been making a lot of headlines in the past several years due to Ripple’s ongoing legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
But what would have happened if you invested $10,000 into XRP three years ago?
A $10,000 investment in XRP in 2022
On June 1, 2022, XRP was trading at $0.4219 in the opening, according to the data provided by CoinMarketCap.
A $10,000 investment back then would have thus equated to approximately 23,692 XRP.
XRP’s price at that time was actually the result of a steady decline that began in December 2021.
In the following months after June 2022, the token managed to bounce a bit and maintain a price of over $0.40 during the final quarter of the year.
The first four months of 2023 were somewhat volatile again, with XRP dipping as low as $0.3771 on March 1 and rising as far as $0.5385 on April 1.
For the next 18 months or so, the token kept bouncing from the high $0.40s to low $0.60s before gaining some serious momentum in 2024, hitting $1.94 on December 1 and continuing to grow from then.
How much would you have now?
At press time, on June 16, 2025, XRP is trading at exactly $2.25, a 433.25% increase since its opening price on June 1, 2022.
In other words, the 23,692 XRP you would have bought for $10,000 three years ago would now be worth about $53,307.
That’s a gain of around 433%.
The returns are certainly nothing to scoff at considering how volatile crypto is.
Indeed, XRP is still down -41.3% from its all time high of $3.84 on January 4, 2018, and there is no saying the same kind of investment you could’ve made three years ago would bear the same fruit today, especially seeing that the future of the token is quite uncertain as the market awaits the Ripple v. SEC case settlement, which could affect altcoins categorically.
