If you invested $1,000 in XRP & gold when XRP first traded, here's how much money you'd have today
A $1,000 investment in XRP at $0.0058 in August 2013 would be worth about $258,000 today at $1.50 per token, a gain of nearly 26,000%. The same $1,000 in gold at $1,300 per ounce in August 2013 would be worth about $3,200 today at $4,190 per ounce, a gain of roughly 220%. XRP reached an all-time high of $3.84 in January 2018 but is now down 60% from that peak and down 47% over the past year, while gold reached $5,608 per ounce in January 2026 before pulling back 25%.
