XRP wants to move higher in 2024. Silver wants to move higher in 2024. Interestingly, both XRP and silver have similarities on their chart. This is noting knew, we pointed to this correlation already many years ago.

Market sizes of XRP and Silver
Before looking into the charts, we share a few data points that help us understand the market size of both assets.
XRP has a market cap of $32.8 million at the time of writing (XRP price at 0.61 USD). The fully diluted market cap of XRP is closer to $61 million. The total value of all cryptocurrencies combined is $1.38 trillion, so XRP has a share of 2.3% against the total crypto market cap.
The estimated value of all silver in existence is around $600b (silver price at 23 USD/oz). This is based on the total silver mined, to date, which is some 1.4 billion kg of silver, taking into account that silver corrodes and just under half of that silver no longer exists as a metal.
The largest silver ETF (SLV) is worth some $10 billion at the time of writing.
The silver traded on the stock exchange is worth around $17 million at the time of writing.
The current value of all silver held in all silver ETFs in the world would come close to the current market cap of XRP. This is an approximation, simply to highlight that both their chart and order of magnitude of the invested value have similarities.
