币界网报道:XRP is outperforming Ethereum (ETH) in profitability projections for 2025, according to recent market analyses. While both assets have shown resilience amid market fluctuations, XRP's lower transaction costs, faster settlement times, and growing institutional adoption—particularly in cross-border payments—are driving its competitive edge. Ripple's ongoing legal clarity with the SEC, contrasted with Ethereum's regulatory uncertainties around its transition to proof-of-stake, has further bolstered investor confidence in XRP. Analysts highlight Ripple's partnerships with major financial institutions as a key factor, whereas Ethereum faces scalability challenges despite its dominant DeFi and NFT ecosystem. Market trends suggest XRP could see higher percentage gains in 2025, though ETH retains a larger market cap.
