XRP Relies on Bitcoin’s Halvings for Major Price Rallies
A recent claim that “XRP has 32 halvings” was debunked: XRP does not undergo an XRP halving. Instead, XRP historically benefits from Bitcoin halving cycles. Bitcoin halving occurs every 210,000 blocks (roughly every four years) and has completed four events (2012, 2016, 2020, 2024) with 29 remaining until around 2140. XRP was issued with a fixed supply of 100 billion tokens and uses a token burn mechanism rather than an XRP halving schedule. Nevertheless, XRP price rallies have closely tracked Bitcoin halving-driven market expansions: from $0.005 to $0.01 after the 2012 halving, $0.006 to $0.26 post-2016, $0.19 to $1.96 following 2020, and $0.52 to over $3.00 after April 2024. With future Bitcoin halving events on the horizon, XRP traders should monitor upcoming halving-driven liquidity shifts and sentiment boosts as potential catalysts for major XRP price rallies.
Bullish
Historical data shows that XRP has consistently rallied following Bitcoin halving events, turning each supply cut into broader market rallies. With four halvings completed (2012, 2016, 2020, 2024) and 29 more scheduled over the next century, Bitcoin halving remains a powerful recurring catalyst. Traders can expect liquidity surges, positive market sentiment, and institutional interest around each future halving, likely driving XRP price up again. Therefore, the news is bullish for crypto traders looking to time halving-driven rallies.
