XRP将以太坊（ETH）从讲台上击倒为市值的第二大加密货币？

XRP和以太坊（ETH）之间的性能对比是在受欢迎的加密影响者DA Sheriff Crypto的评论中引起的。

A recent commentary from popular crypto influencer Da Sheriff Crypto highlights the contrasting performance of XRP and Ethereum (ETH) over the past year.

流行的加密影响者DA Sheriff Crypto最近发表的评论强调了XRP和以太坊（ETH）在过去一年中的对比表现。

According to Sheriff's analysis, an investment of $1,000 in XRP a year ago would have seen an impressive 354% increase. This figure is derived from XRP's appreciation from $0.5384 in January 2024 to its current price of $2.57.

根据警长的分析，一年前的XRP $ 1,000的投资将增加354％。该数字来自XRP的赞赏，从2024年1月的0.5384到目前的价格为2.57美元。

In other words, a $1,000 investment in XRP, which acquired 1,857 tokens a year ago, is now worth approximately $4,540. During this period, XRP's value even reached a more substantial $3.40 price, making the investment worth $6,315 at its peak.

换句话说，一年前收购了1,857个令牌的XRP投资1,000美元，现在价值约4,540美元。在此期间，XRP的价值甚至达到了3.40美元的价格，使投资在其顶峰时价值6,315美元。

On the other hand, a one-year investment in Ethereum didn't fare as well compared to XRP. Specifically, Ethereum traded at $2,778 a year ago, but the token is currently exchanging hands at $2,680, indicating a 4.6% decrease. As a result, an investment of $1,000 in ETH from last year would now be worth just $965.

另一方面，与XRP相比，一年的以太坊投资不太好。具体而言，以太坊的交易价格为一年前的2,778美元，但该令牌目前以2,680美元的价格交换，表明下降了4.6％。结果，从去年开始的1,000美元的ETH投资仅为965美元。

It is interesting to note that during the peak over the past year, the $1,000 ETH investment was worth $1,475. However, Ethereum could not sustain the gain, with values plunging by over 35% shortly after.

有趣的是，在过去一年的峰值中，1,000美元的ETH投资价值1,475美元。但是，以太坊无法维持收益，不久之后的价值下降了35％。

Essentially, despite its dominant position in the crypto space, Ethereum has experienced a dip in its one-year performance, a stark contrast to the massive positive returns from XRP.

从本质上讲，尽管以太坊在加密货币领域中具有主导地位，但其一年的表现却降低了，与XRP的巨大正回报形成了鲜明的对比。

This observation has sparked discussions in the crypto community about a new asset potentially taking over as the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap.

这一观察结果引发了加密货币社区的讨论，即有关新资产可能将新资产作为市值取代的第二大加密货币。

With XRP's stellar performance placing it just behind Ethereum, many are now predicting an imminent flip. Among those joining the conversation is Austin King, a Harvard-trained computer science engineer.

随着XRP的出色表现将其置于以太坊后面，许多人现在正在预测即将进行的翻转。加入对话的人中有哈佛大学的计算机科学工程师奥斯汀·金（Austin King）。

King took to his Substack to highlight XRP's potential, criticizing Ethereum's struggles with inflation and the lack of clear development. He used these points to predict that XRP could surpass Ethereum in market cap.

金替代了XRP的潜力，批评以太坊在通货膨胀和缺乏明确发展方面的斗争。他使用这些观点来预测XRP可以超过市值的以太坊。

While there is currently a $177 billion gap between the two assets, a 3X price surge from XRP's current position could be sufficient for it to displace Ethereum.

虽然目前这两个资产之间存在1770亿美元的差距，但XRP当前头寸的3倍价格上涨可能足以使以太坊取代。
