A major financial publication has turned its attention to XRP. For a cryptocurrency that has spent years at the center of regulatory battles and community debate, the recognition arrives from an unexpected corner, and the crypto world is paying attention.
Forbes Puts XRP on the Map
Crypto commentator BankXRP (@BankXRP) shared a Forbes report ranking XRP 4th among cryptocurrencies worth investing in. The report places XRP behind only Bitcoin, Ethereum, and BNB. Forbes cited XRP’s “strong use cases in global finance” and its backing by institutional partnerships as the basis for the ranking. The publication noted XRP’s market cap at $69.21 billion.
Forbes described XRP as a tool for fast and low-cost cross-border payments. It functions as a bridge between currencies, enabling transfers with minimal fees. The report also noted that XRP’s price stood at $1.11 at the time of publication, with its highest point in the past year reaching $3.65 on July 17, 2025.
Forbes acknowledged a key structural difference between XRP and assets like Bitcoin. XRP tokens enter circulation when Ripple sells coins, raising concerns about the centralized control over its supply. Despite this, the publication’s decision to rank XRP 4th signals recognition of its position in the global crypto landscape.
The XRP Community Sees the Value
Not Everyone Is Convinced
Another commenter shared the cons Forbes highlighted, which BankXRP excluded from his post. These include Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen‘s large XRP holdings and centralization claims.
The Forbes ranking gives XRP mainstream visibility at a time when institutional interest in crypto continues to grow. Whether the attention translates into sustained price movement remains the question investors are watching.
