Read this as history, not a forecast. The start date decides most of the result: move it on the chart and the order can flip. These are also coins that are large today; ones that faded are not on this page, which makes any comparison of survivors look better than picking coins at the time would have.

Questions

Which has performed better, XRP or Stellar?
From January 1, 2019 to October 24, 2026, XRP returned +258% and Stellar returned +52%. Across the 7 full calendar years they share, the higher return was XRP in 5 and Stellar in 2. The result depends heavily on the start date, which the chart lets you move, and it describes the past rather than what comes next.
Which fell further in its worst stretch?
Over the same period, Stellar fell −90% from May 11, 2021 to December 31, 2022 and XRP fell −83% from April 14, 2021 to June 18, 2022. Falls are measured on daily closes, peak to trough.
Do XRP and Stellar move together?
Day to day, XRP and Stellar have moved closely together: the correlation of their daily returns is 0.74, where 1 is perfect lockstep and 0 is no relation. The more closely coins move together, the less holding them side by side spreads risk.
Why does the comparison start on January 1, 2019?
It is the first day we hold a daily close for both coins, so each one is measured over exactly the same days. The table of calendar years uses each coin's own full history instead, which is why some coins have earlier years than others.
Where do the XRP vs Stellar numbers come from?
Daily closing prices of each coin's USDT pair on Binance. Returns are price changes only: they leave out fees, taxes and anything earned from staking. A year that is still running, or that starts part-way through a coin's data, is shown in italics and not counted when years are compared.

Disclaimer: This page is educational and does not constitute financial advice or a recommendation to buy either coin. It describes past price moves from daily closes on Binance and leaves out fees, taxes and staking rewards. Past performance does not predict future results. Cryptocurrency prices are volatile; never invest more than you can afford to lose.
