Steph Is Crypto (@Steph_iscrypto), a well-known analyst on X, has presented a chart that compares XRP’s past market dominance with potential future levels. His post includes a bold claim that XRP reclaiming its 2017 market dominance level could make many investors “extremely rich” in this cycle. The Historical Reference Point The chart highlights XRP’s dominance in 2017, when it reached approximately 24.9% of the overall cryptocurrency market. That surge represented an increase of more than 1,200% from prior levels. This rally also helped XRP reach its previous peak of $3.36 in January 2018. At the time, XRP also briefly became the second-largest cryptocurrency in the market, before the correction in 2018 pulled it down. From the perspective of market structure, the chart marks that high as a benchmark for comparison with present conditions. Since then, XRP’s dominance has steadily declined, reaching much lower levels in the years that followed. At the time of Steph’s analysis, it sat near 4.68%, indicating that XRP represents a smaller portion of the cryptocurrency market compared to 2018. This gap between the historic high and the current level forms the basis for projections about future growth. If #XRP reclaims its 2017 market dominance level, we’re all going to get extremely rich this cycle! pic.twitter.com/46ZQSNoggn — STEPH IS CRYPTO (@Steph_iscrypto) August 27, 2025 The Projection for 2025 According to the analysis, the next major target sits at around 20.65% dominance by 2025. If achieved, this would represent a 428% increase from current levels. XRP has performed remarkably in 2025, recently reaching a new all-time high of $3.65 , and Steph expects a swift rise in dominance to follow. The timeline on the chart places this projection within the current market cycle, suggesting that the coming few months may be decisive for XRP’s share of the broader market.

The chart notes a consolidation period followed by a breakout during the previous cycle, implying that a similar breakout could occur again. While the percentage gains would be smaller than those recorded in 2017, the overall effect would still mark a significant shift in XRP’s standing within the digital asset space and help it surpass Ethereum, making it the second-largest cryptocurrency once again. A move from below 5% to over 20% would indicate that XRP had absorbed substantial market share from competitors, reinforcing its long-term presence, and also putting it on the path to challenge Bitcoin’s position at the top of the market.
