The XRP community is buzzing with excitement as the asset moves higher in the market hierarchy for a short period, reflecting its stark position as a leading crypto asset in the sector.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Rising Holder Number Bolsters XRP\u2019s Rally<\/h2>\n<p>Without a doubt, <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/xrp-price-bitcoin-ethereum\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">XRP has become one of the best-performing digital assets<\/a> alongside Bitcoin in the ongoing bull market cycle. After climbing rapidly yesterday, Santiment, a market intelligence and on-chain data platform, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/santimentfeed\/status\/1921973813283324075\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">reported<\/a> that the altcoin moved to the third position among cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, the altcoin surpassed <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/tether-flexes-strength-with-nearly-8-ton-gold-reserve-for-xaut\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">Tether<\/a> (USDT), which has held the position for a lengthy period, to claim the top 3 spot, demonstrating the strength of the recent upward trend. Even though XRP has moved back into the fourth position, reclaiming the top 3 spot is a testament to the increased attention and interest in the asset.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-473742 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/XRP-chart-from-Santiment.jpg?resize=640%2C360\" alt=\"XRP\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/XRP-chart-from-Santiment.jpg?w=1755 1755w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/XRP-chart-from-Santiment.jpg?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/XRP-chart-from-Santiment.jpg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/XRP-chart-from-Santiment.jpg?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/XRP-chart-from-Santiment.jpg?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/XRP-chart-from-Santiment.jpg?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/XRP-chart-from-Santiment.jpg?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/p>\n<p>During the time of the report, the altcoin\u2019s price rose above the $2.61 level, marking its highest level in the past month. Santiment pointed out multiple conditions that are responsible for the recent notable upside move to the top 3 crypto and the asset\u2019s price push toward key resistance zones.<\/p>\n<p>The first condition, underlined by the on-chain platform, is US House Bill 594. A bill that would make <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/missouri-leads-the-way-tax-breaks-on-crypto-sales\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">Missouri the first US state to offer a complete income tax deduction<\/a> on all capital gains, including profits from Bitcoin and XRP.<\/p>\n<p>Another key reason Santiment stated is the recent acceptance of XRP by Travala as a payment method, bolstering its position as a functional utility crypto asset. This acceptance of the asset by Travala also reflects its potential as a long-term financial asset.<\/p>\n<h2>A Steady Rise In Non-Empty Wallet Addresses Amid Price Surge<\/h2>\n<p>Lastly, Santiment noted that the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/altcoins-face-bearish-sentiment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">altcoin<\/a>\u2018s short-term upswing into the third position in the overall crypto sector was driven by a significant rise in the number of active wallet addresses. Data from Santiment shows that more than 638,000 non-empty wallets have been added to the network since the beginning of 2025.<\/p>\n<p>The additional 638,000 non-empty wallet addresses imply an over 11% increase thus far in 2025 alone. Currently, XRP\u2019s overall holders are approaching 6.5 million for the first time in the network\u2019s 12+ year history following the newly added 638,000 non-empty wallet addresses.<\/p>\n<p>Since the uptick coincides with price spikes, it demonstrates increasing network activity and investors\u2019 interest, indicating a new stage of adoption for the asset. In a competitive and quickly changing market environment, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/xrp-news\/major-xrp-accumulation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">growing wallet base<\/a> may offer the fundamental support required for the asset to maintain its current upside momentum as retail and institutional demand align.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, XRP was trading at $2.49, indicating a nearly 4% increase in the last 24 hours. Investors\u2019 sentiment has strongly turned bullish, as evidenced by a more than 179% increase in trading volume in the past day.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/7c8tV9uS\/\" alt=\"XRP\" width=\"2283\" height=\"1267\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Monday, XRP achieved a major milestone that attracted significant attention and interest in the crypto sector.
