I've heard a lot of people say "why can't the XRPL have user numbers like SOL?"
We can, but it will take a collective effort of platforms, infrastructure, wallet providers, ect to make that happen.
We had a small taste of it in Dec 2024 with active wallets on the whole XRPL network hitting over 100k.
Subsequently,
@First_Ledger had 105,688 new users in just the first 3 days alone of Dec 2024.
If 1 platform can do that, imagine what 100 could do spanning Defi, NFTs, lending, RWAs, institutional, ect.
It's enevitable this happens again, but we need to be ready. platforms/infra/validators firing on all cylinders. Removing all friction to bring people to know
$XRP.
tick tock.
P.S. check out and follow
@xrpscan for the great data metrics.
