According to market data, XRP’s average daily volume in the third quarter of 2024 was 1.8 billion US dollars, accounting for 72% of the total trading volume of the four. Though, its price has fallen by 73% from its 2021 high of 1.96 US dollars. If Ripple is successful in achieving a holistic settlement with the US SEC (and such an opportunity has a 55% chance), Bloomberg Industry Research estimates that its price might recover to 2.8 US dollars. The appreciation reached 380%. In comparison, TRON (TRX) hit more than 210 million accounts in 2024, a 40% year-over-year growth, courtesy of an average 7 million on-chain transactions per day (accounting for 19% of the globe’s smart contract platform traffic) and with a transaction fee as low as 1.3 cents. Sun Yuchen’s USDD stablecoin reserve ratio remains at 230%. Should the 30% Asian market coverage provided by the blockchain node service he works with by 2025 be attained, the price of TRX can increase from 0.08 US dollars to 0.35 US dollars, and the return on investment rate will be 338%.
As a new GameFi token, YETI experienced a 520% jump in user base to 850,000 during the second quarter of 2024. Its staked APY was a record 48%, but the token in circulation was merely 21% of the total released. It will encounter a monthly unlocking selling pressure of 7% over the next 12 months. Based on the past statistics of Axie Infinity (with 900% growth in users in 2021, which pushed the token up 78 times), if YETI’s NFT trading platform daily active users hit more than 500,000 (presently 120,000), its value could jump from $0.0047 to $0.12. But one must keep an eye out for the drawdown risk caused by TVL volatility (present 90-day standard deviation: 38%). OURO, as a token of the privacy protocol, saw its transaction volume decrease by 42% in 2024 after the MiCA regulations of the EU. However, the zero-knowledge proof upgrade doubled the rate of anonymous transactions to 1,200 transactions per second (three times Monero’s speed). If its dark web payment market share rises from 1.7% to 5%, the price can exceed $0.9 from $0.15. The regulatory suppression risk is 65%.
Technical indicators show that the 30-day volatility (annualized standard deviation) of XRP is 28%, lower than 92% of YETI and 76% of OURO, but the institutional holding ratio is 43% (CoinShares data), and with a better risk-reward ratio. The TRON DApp ecosystem TVL (Total Locked Value) will rise to 14 billion US dollars in 2024, and the contribution will include 35% from JustLend lending protocol. Assuming that the overall DeFi market will grow by 50%, it is likely its price to behave better than that of the total market. In previous cases, after Ripple partially won a lawsuit against the SEC in 2023, XRP rose by 70% in a single day, while TRON’s weekly increase was 120% after partnering with Dominica to introduce a national token in 2022. In the scenario of “xrp tron yeti ouro price prediction,” the Finder specialist panel believes that XRP stands at 40% chances of leading the surge in 2025, TRON and YETI are at 30% and 20% respectively, while OURO is only 10% due to compliance challenges. Investors can invest XRP (50%), TRON (30%), YETI (15%), and OURO (5%), and set a 25% stop-loss level to hedge against black swan events.
