XRP Prices Needed to Match Government Debt
Crypto analyst Steph Is Crypto recently evaluated what XRP's price would need to be if its entire circulating supply matched the outstanding government debt of major economies.
The analysis used a simple division of government debt by circulating XRP supply, and the results are striking. For example, Russia's $394.5 billion in reported government debt would require XRP to reach approximately $6.29 per token for 62.74 billion circulating XRP to equal that amount.
The largest figure concerns the United States, which has a $40.03 trillion federal debt. According to StephIsCrypto's calculation, XRP would need to reach $638 per token for its entire circulating supply to match this amount, resulting in a combined value exceeding $40 trillion.
