XRP has been identified as the cryptocurrency with the strongest realistic upside potential by 2027, compared to Solana (SOL) and BNB. It is evaluated that XRP's investment appeal has been highlighted by the combination of institutional payment flows, growth in real-world asset tokenization, and the resolution of regulatory uncertainties.
24/7 Wall St. reported on May 24 (local time) that XRP, Solana, and BNB are being discussed as candidates for future growth, while the cryptocurrency market is still finding its direction in mid-2026. According to the article, XRP is targeting institutional payment flows, Solana is attracting developers and DeFi activities based on its fast blockchain network, and BNB is serving as a stable utility asset based on demand within the Binance ecosystem.
As of the reporting time, XRP was trading at $1.35, Solana around $86.85, and BNB around $661. XRP has fluctuated between $1.30 and $1.50 in recent months, remaining about 63% below its 2025 high of $3.65. However, the article explained that a strong support level has formed around $1.28 on the charts.
The regulatory burden surrounding XRP has significantly decreased. In 2025, the lawsuit between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) concluded with a $50 million settlement, and in March, the SEC and U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) framework officially classified XRP as a digital commodity. 24/7 Wall St. assessed this as the resolution of the last regulatory uncertainty that had weighed on XRP for years.
Ripple's core business is cross-border remittances for banks and payment companies. Transfers that used to take days in the traditional financial system can be processed in seconds using XRP-based infrastructure, and at a lower cost than conventional methods. Ripple's on-demand liquidity products continue to grow in Asian and Latin American markets, where there is high demand for fast and inexpensive remittances.
The growth of real-world asset tokenization on the XRP Ledger was also presented as a key reason. According to the article, the tokenization value on the XRP Ledger recently exceeded $3 billion, with assets such as U.S. Treasury bonds and energy commodities flowing into the network. This analysis suggests that the fast and low-cost payment structure is attracting institutional investors' interest.
Solana maintains its developer base by emphasizing fast processing speeds and low costs. Solana's total value locked (TVL) in DeFi is approximately $5.5 billion, and apps like Jupiter and Kamino handle swap and lending volumes. Solana spot ETFs have recorded steady inflows since their launch in 2025, and Visa is processing real payments for U.S. banks on Solana using USDC.
The scale of Solana's real-world asset tokenization exceeded $2 billion in early 2026. Furthermore, expectations for performance improvements increased as the Alpenglow upgrade entered validator testing in May. 24/7 Wall St. explained that Solana's 2027 price forecast is between $90 and $150 in a balanced scenario, and could exceed $200 in a strong market.
BNB was evaluated as the most stable asset among the three cryptocurrencies, based on demand within the Binance ecosystem. BNB is used for trading fee discounts, staking rewards, and access to new tokens in Launchpool. The BNB Chain processes billions of dollars in transactions daily with low fees and fast transaction processing, and this year, the Binance network expanded into decentralized storage and Layer-2 solutions.
Binance recently removed over 2.1 million BNB from circulation. This is part of a long-term plan to reduce the total supply to 100 million. 24/7 Wall St. believes that sustained demand and decreasing supply could support long-term price appreciation. BNB's 2027 forecast was presented as $700 to $1,000.
Among the three cryptocurrencies, XRP was presented as having the strongest realistic upside potential by 2027. 24/7 Wall St. set a target of $3.20 to $5.80 for XRP, based on its payment adoption and growth in tokenized assets. Solana was given a target range of $160 to $240 based on network activity, and BNB $880 to $1,250. The article concluded that future cryptocurrency regulations could provide the biggest benefit to XRP, potentially coinciding with increased institutional investor inflows.
