XRP 在飙升超过 1 美元后瞄准以太坊的第二个位置，击败了卡尔达诺 (ADA) 和狗狗币 (DOGE)

随着 XRP 领先卡尔达诺和狗狗币飙升至 1 美元以上，人们开始讨论它是否可以挑战以太坊作为第二大加密资产。

As XRP surges past $1, leaving Cardano and Dogecoin behind, speculations have arisen regarding its potential to challenge Ethereum for the second-largest crypto asset position.

随着 XRP 飙升至 1 美元以上，将卡尔达诺和狗狗币抛在身后，人们开始猜测它有可能挑战以太坊第二大加密资产地位。

Before the recent surge, the crypto community engaged in discussions about which asset among XRP, ADA, and DOGE would first reach the $1 mark. While both XRP and ADA had previously traded above $1, they both fell below this level due to a broader sell-off following the 2021 bull run.

在最近的飙升之前，加密货币社区就 XRP、ADA 和 DOGE 中哪种资产将首先达到 1 美元大关进行了讨论。虽然 XRP 和 ADA 此前的交易价格均高于 1 美元，但由于 2021 年牛市后出现更广泛的抛售，它们均跌破该水平。

Despite ADA and DOGE experiencing significant upticks recently, XRP remained hovering around the $0.57 mark for several days, leading to DOGE's rise in the global crypto ranking to the eighth position, pushing XRP down.

尽管 ADA 和 DOGE 最近经历了大幅上涨，但 XRP 连续几天在 0.57 美元大关附近徘徊，导致 DOGE 在全球加密货币排名中上升至第八位，从而压低了 XRP。

However, the narrative shifted following reports of Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse meeting with U.S. President-Elect Donald Trump, which sparked speculations of an impending resolution in the Ripple lawsuit. Amid these rumors, XRP rallied substantially, surging above $1 for the first time since 2021.

然而，在 Ripple 首席执行官布拉德·加林豪斯 (Brad Garlinghouse) 与美国当选总统唐纳德·特朗普会面的报道之后，叙述发生了变化，引发了人们对 Ripple 诉讼即将得到解决的猜测。在这些传言中，XRP 大幅上涨，自 2021 年以来首次飙升至 1 美元以上。

Since then, XRP has overtaken Dogecoin, solidifying its position as the sixth-largest cryptocurrency with a market cap of $62.2 billion.

此后，XRP 取代狗狗币，巩固了其作为第六大加密货币的地位，市值达 622 亿美元。

Following XRP's impressive performance, there are speculations that it might be aiming to challenge Ethereum (ETH) for the second place.

随着 XRP 令人印象深刻的表现，有人猜测它可能会挑战以太坊（ETH）的第二位。

In 2014, XRP was ranked as the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, trailing only Bitcoin. It maintained this position until Ethereum's launch the following year, which resulted in both assets vying closely for the second place.

2014 年，XRP 被列为市值第二大加密货币，仅次于比特币。它一直保持这一位置，直到次年以太坊推出，这导致两种资产激烈争夺第二名。

However, Ethereum secured the second position definitively in June 2018 after former SEC Director William Hinman declared ETH a non-security. Two years later, the SEC's decision to charge Ripple with violating federal securities laws through its past XRP sales further disadvantaged XRP.

然而，在前 SEC 主任 William Hinman 宣布 ETH 为非证券之后，以太坊于 2018 年 6 月最终获得了第二名的位置。两年后，美国证券交易委员会决定指控 Ripple 通过过去的 XRP 销售违反联邦证券法，这进一步使 XRP 处于不利地位。

As a consequence, XRP slipped to the seventh position last year, and recently Dogecoin pushed the asset down to the eighth spot. But with the recent rally, XRP appears poised to once again challenge Ethereum for the second position.

结果，XRP 去年滑落至第七位，最近狗狗币将该资产推至第八位。但随着最近的反弹，XRP 似乎准备再次挑战以太坊第二的位置。

XRP's potential ascent to the second position in the global crypto ranking would be a formidable undertaking. Currently, Ethereum is the second-largest cryptocurrency, with a market cap of $376.45 billion.

XRP 在全球加密货币排名中上升到第二位将是一项艰巨的任务。目前，以太坊是第二大加密货币，市值为 3764.5 亿美元。

This implies that XRP's market cap must increase by 505.22% to reach ETH's $376.45 billion valuation. At a growth rate of this magnitude, XRP's price would rise to approximately $6.59 from the current level of $1.09, assuming the coin's circulating supply remains largely constant at 56.93 billion.

这意味着 XRP 的市值必须增加 505.22% 才能达到 ETH 的 3764.5 亿美元估值。假设 XRP 的流通供应量基本保持在 569.3 亿枚，以这种幅度的增长率，XRP 的价格将从目前的 1.09 美元上涨至约 6.59 美元。

While XRP's surge to the $1 mark has certainly bolstered investors' confidence in the asset, challenging Ethereum for the second position necessitates the convergence of several initiatives, ranging from institutional adoption to regulatory clarity.

虽然 XRP 飙升至 1 美元大关无疑增强了投资者对该资产的信心，但挑战以太坊第二名的地位需要融合多项举措，从机构采用到监管清晰度。

notably, XRP did receive the long-awaited clarity in July 2023 when a federal court ruled that it is not a security. Additionally, strong institutional demand for XRP is bound to follow should the U.S. SEC approve the launch of one or more ETFs tied to the asset.

值得注意的是，XRP 确实在 2023 年 7 月得到了期待已久的澄清，当时联邦法院裁定 XRP 不是证券。此外，如果美国 SEC 批准推出与该资产相关的一个或多个 ETF，机构对 XRP 的强劲需求势必随之而来。

Having said that, it remains to be seen whether XRP can challenge ETH for the second place in the global crypto ranking. XRP's future price actions will be pivotal in determining whether it can pose a threat to Ethereum.

话虽如此，XRP 能否挑战 ETH 争夺全球加密货币排行榜第二名还有待观察。 XRP 未来的价格走势将是决定其是否会对以太坊构成威胁的关键。
