Can Solana (SOL) Overtake Ripple (XRP) and Challenge Ethereum’s (ETH) Market Cap in 2025?

Can Solana (SOL) Overtake Ripple (XRP) and Challenge Ethereum’s (ETH) Market Cap in 2025?

Given cryptocurrencies' ongoing transformation, investors and digital enthusiasts focus on digital assets. One of the alarming issues for 2025 is whether Solana can outperform Ripple in the Ethereum market race. We will undertake technical studies, examine what matters to the prospective future of every cryptocurrency, and review the present situation in the market. SOL might find it difficult to overtake XRP and challenge ETH’s market cap in 2025, but this RWA altcoin, Rexas Finance (RXS), could easily attain that as it targets a $250 ATH in 2025.

Current Market Overview

As of April 2, 2025, the cryptocurrency market presents the following standings:

  • Solana (SOL): Trading at $124.10

  • Ripple (XRP): Priced at $2.09

  • Ethereum (ETH): Valued at $1,860.06

These figures provide a snapshot of the market but don't fully capture the broader context of each asset's market capitalization and growth trajectory.

Solana's Ascendancy

Decentralized exchanges on Solana, sometimes known as DEXs, exceeded Ethereum's far lower $74 billion in December 2024 when its trade hit the $97 billion mark, attaining extraordinary achievements. Joining the ranks of Bitcoin and Ethereum confirms Solana's standing in the blockchain space by providing adequate processing speeds and reduced running costs. Market experts have high expectations for Solana's price path since it might peak at $500 by mid-2025. This forecast appears reasonable given technical data suggesting SOL/USD is creating fresh bullish trends after crossing the $200 barrier level. Should Solana pass the $220 mark, fresh opportunities for price rallies could develop. Solana fetches a good value at $175, but robust resistance levels of $202 and $208 interfere with the token.

Ripple's Position

Ripple is still a fierce rival and rules the sector, especially in cross-border transactions. XRP's price at the start of 2025 was $2.41, with a market capital value of $138.27 billion. Rising hopes for legal triumphs over the US SEC inspired people, driving the price of XRP even higher.  Paul Atkins, slated to be the new Chair of the Securities Exchange, has a crypto-friendly perspective that has raised market trust. A regulatory ruling endorsing XRP would bring much-needed clarity and open the path for a spot ETF, drawing sizeable institutional investment.

Comparative Market Capitalizations

In analyzing whether Solana may surpass Ripple and go after Ethereum, looking at their market capitalizations is imperative. Although the specific market cap figures vary, XRP and Solana can hit a $200 billion market cap within the first quarter of 2025. For Solana, this would mean a price of around $415 to $420, which means SOL may be able to surpass XRP and go for ETH’s market cap in 2025. Solana's peak at $295 is rather interesting. A trader who predicted the high thinks a rising RWA altcoin, Rexas Finance (RXS), will outperform SOL, ETH, and XRP in 2025. After increasing 567% from $0.030 to $0.20 during its presale, RXS has shown bullish momentum and addresses a vast market valued at over $900 trillion: the real-world asset (RWA) market. RXS will challenge SOL, XRP, and ETH’s market caps in 2025 and beyond. With RXS, investors can tokenize real-world assets and quickly sell or buy them. RXS is poised to gain rapidly in the market as it attracts top investors and whales. Its price could reach $250 before the end of 2026, reaching a market cap above $200 billion and challenging ETH’s market cap.

Rexas Finance’s Explosive Presale Growth

Rexas Finance is now priced at $0.20 in stage 12 after seeing a rise of 567% from $0.030 at stage 1 in its impressive presale. The Rexas Finance presale began in early September 2024 at $0.030 in stage 1 and has surged 567% to $0.20 in stage 12, the final stage. So far, 459,181,583 RXS tokens have been sold in the presale, raising $47,836,774 as of writing. RXS will launch at $0.25 on June 19, 2025. The presale aims to raise $56,000,000, and 500,000,000 RXS tokens will be allocated. The final presale stage is 91.84% filled, and investors are rushing in before RXS jumps to its listing price. Those investing in the final stage stand to gain a 25% increase when RXS is listed. As SOL and XRP battle for dominance, RXS could quietly overtake both, reaching a market cap that rivals Ethereum. Investors looking for the next high-growth opportunity should consider joining the RXS presale before it concludes and securing their position in what could be the biggest RWA project of 2025 and beyond.
