One Ether's $25,000 2028 target from Standard Chartered would require XRP to hit $25 per token — nearly double the bank's own $12.60 XRP forecast. The 1,000-XRP versus 1-ETH comparison is really a bet on whether XRP can close a 53% trailing drawdown and outgrow Ethereum's network premium.

Crypto traders are watching the recovery race with different lenses: Ethereum has the strongest momentum from its June low at +55%, while Bitcoin's -10.2% YTD gap makes it the fastest potential recovery. XRP and Solana show altcoin strength but larger deficits.

The XRP-versus-Ethereum debate highlights two competing network models: a specialized payment ledger versus a programmable settlement layer.
