XRP and BNB showed diverging price action over the past 24 hours as broader crypto markets recorded mixed trading while crypto-linked equities posted notable gains across US markets.
XRP traded near $2.00 after a 5.04% daily increase, while BNB slipped 0.28% and closed near $872.

At the same time, exchange data and treasury disclosures signaled strong institutional and trading activity across the digital asset sector. Could these parallel movements point to shifting liquidity patterns across tokens, equities, and treasury strategies?

XRP Extends Gains Near the $2 Level

XRP traded around $2.00 during the session, lifting its market capitalization to $121.89 billion, according to CoinMarketCap data. The token recorded $3.87 billion in 24-hour trading volume, producing a volume-to-market-cap ratio of 3.19%. XRP’s fully diluted valuation stood at $200.88 billion based on its capped supply structure.

XRP’s total supply measured 99.98 billion tokens, with a fixed maximum supply of 100 billion.
Circulating supply reached 60.67 billion XRP, while holder addresses totaled 495.92 thousand.
The asset carried a profile score of 61 percent on the data platform.

On the intraday chart, XRP opened near $1.91 before advancing sharply during early trading hours. Price climbed above $1.95, then crossed $2.00 during the Asian session before peaking slightly above $2.05. Later trading showed consolidation near $2.00, where XRP closed while retaining most intraday gains.

BNB Retreats After Early Strength

BNB traded at $872.18 by the end of the session, reflecting a daily decline of 0.28%.
Its market capitalization stood at $120.12 billion, closely matching XRP’s valuation during the same period. BNB recorded $217.8 million in 24-hour trading volume, with a volume-to-market-cap ratio of 1.81%.

The token’s fully diluted valuation registered at $120.13 billion based on current pricing. BNB’s total supply, maximum supply, and circulating supply all remained fixed at 137.73 million tokens.
The asset held a profile score of 80 percent.

BNB’s chart showed an early rally above $885 before the price retreated during later hours.
Trading ranged between $875 and $880 before a sharper decline pushed the price briefly below $870. BNB recovered modestly afterward but settled near $872, ending the session lower.

Crypto Stocks Advance as Trading Activity Expands

Crypto-linked equities moved higher as Bitcoin miners continued focusing on artificial intelligence infrastructure investments. Hut 8, CleanSpark, and TeraWulf each rallied by as much as 10% during the session. Cipher Mining and IREN advanced roughly 8% over the same period. Galaxy Digital saw a rise of 7%, and Circle Financial was up about 4.5%.

The increases in stocks happened at the same time as the prices of the major tokens remained stable in the crypto market. The data from the exchanges revealed that KuCoin's trading volume for the year 2025 had crossed $1.25 trillion.

The exchange's monthly volume of $114 billion was made up of spot and derivatives trading, each having more than $500 billion. Additionally, Tether ushered in the year 2026 by adding 8,888.88 Bitcoin to its treasury, which has an estimated worth of around $780 million as per the statement of CEO Paolo Ardoino.
