XRP Gains Ground as Investors Shift Focus to Utility and Stability

XRP Gains Ground as Investors Shift Focus to Utility and Stability

XRP is gaining momentum in Singapore as new data shows an apparent rise in investor interest. Alongside this trend, Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin is also attracting attention, signaling a shift in the region’s crypto preferences.

According to the 2025 Independent Reserve Crypto Index Singapore Report, XRP ownership increased from 14 percent to 17 percent within a year. The survey showed that 1,500 residents ranked XRP after two other altcoins regarding top movers.

Ethereum was the biggest winner among altcoins, rising from 41 percent to 48 percent. Solana and Dogecoin grew by two and one percent, respectively. The changes are due to investors including a broader range of assets in their portfolios.

The report points out that stablecoins are rising, mainly because leading examples are tied to the US dollar. In particular, the Ripple-powered RLUSD has reached a market value of more than 310 million dollars after just a few months.

Stablecoins are becoming a preferred option for many investors in the region. Forty-six percent of respondents reported holding stablecoins at some point, with 21 percent currently holding and 25 percent having done so in the past. A substantial 83 percent expressed a preference for USD-backed stablecoins.

A growing number of RLUSD portfolios indicates an interest in digital assets that deliver stability. As a result, more investors are now turning to safe investments because the market keeps increasing.

About 94 percent of respondents said they know about at least one cryptocurrency. Nine out of ten people have heard of Bitcoin, and almost three-fourths of those who hold cryptos keep it in their portfolio.

While blockchain is used more today, investment has not grown significantly. Only about 10 percent of the group invest more than $1,000 each month. Most people in Singapore keep their investments low, with 57 percent spending below 500 dollars a month and 29 percent investing between 500 and 1,000 dollars.

As both XRP and RLUSD continue to gain traction, Singapore is shaping up to be a major player in regional crypto trends. More investors’ attention to these assets points to changes taking place in the digital finance world across the Asia-Pacific.

XRP’s rising popularity and RLUSD’s strong position in the market mirror changes in what investors in Singapore prefer. As more people in China become aware and their portfolios change, it could pave the way for broader use of ESG investing across Asia.
