Bitcoin vs XRP: How a $500 Investment in 2014 Grew Into Six‑Figure Returns by 2025
According to an analysis by X Finance Bull, a $500 position taken in XRP at its 2014 lows would now be worth about $255,000, while the same amount invested in Bitcoin over that period would have grown to roughly $133,000. The study highlights that XRP delivered a 511x return versus Bitcoin’s 266x gain, helped by network development, institutional products such as spot ETFs launched in November 2025, and regulatory milestones that supported price appreciation through 2025.
