XRP News Today: XRP Community Challenges Bitcoin Dominance Claim Amid Bullish Price Action

A bold declaration from Bitcoin advocate Fred Krueger that “no other crypto will ever flip Bitcoin” has sparked a strong reaction from the XRP community. Krueger claimed that “Bitcoin has won” and no other cryptocurrency could challenge its dominance. In response, XRP supporters have highlighted historical evidence and current market performance to challenge this assertion [1].

Notably, Cobb, a prominent XRP influencer, referenced a pivotal moment in XRP’s history—January 4th, 2018, when XRP reached an all-time high of $3.84, temporarily overtaking Ethereum to become the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. This event remains a key example of Bitcoin’s dominance being challenged in the past [1].

The XRP community also emphasized the psychological implications behind Krueger’s comments. Influencer Xaif Crypto argued that the intense focus by Bitcoin maximalists on XRP is not constructive criticism, but rather a reflection of insecurity. “When Bitcoin maxis start obsessing over another project 24/7, that’s not criticism—it’s insecurity in disguise,” he stated. He further noted that the continued scrutiny of XRP demonstrates a broader fear of its potential to disrupt Bitcoin’s leadership [1].

At the time of reporting, XRP was trading around $3.07, having reached a local peak of $3.65 in mid-July 2025. The price has consistently closed above $3.10 in recent weeks, a significant level for traders and investors. Analysts have identified key price targets for XRP at $3.185, $3.33, and $3.45, with reaching these levels potentially signaling a larger breakout [1].

The recent price recovery is attributed to a more favorable market environment, including reduced regulatory uncertainties surrounding Ripple’s legal situation with the SEC and growing real-world adoption of XRP. The XRP Ledger’s capacity for fast, scalable cross-border transactions continues to attract institutional interest [1].

With sustained bullish momentum, the XRP Army remains confident in its long-term potential. The community’s message is clear: while debates continue, price action often tells the true story. As XRP continues to break through key resistance levels and gain traction in the broader crypto market, its position as a serious contender to Bitcoin’s dominance appears to be strengthening [1].
