Xaif (@Xaif_Crypto), a popular crypto pundit, has highlighted a growing trend in Asia that has broader implications than it might first appear. The SBI Group’s ongoing integration of Ripple’s distributed ledger technology and XRP in Japan and other parts of Asia is a calculated decision aimed at increasing efficiency in cross-border transactions. While digital currencies have often struggled with speed, scalability, and transaction costs, the data presented by Ripple indicates that XRP is the outlier built for real-world utility, offering advantages that make it superior to other digital assets. XRP’s Superior Speed, Scale, and Cost In his post on X, Xaif shared one of Ripple’s presentations, which draws sharp contrasts between BTC, ETH, BCH, DASH, LTC, and XRP across three critical metrics: transactions per second, time per single transaction, and cost. XRP processes 1,500 transactions per second, far outpacing Litecoin (56), Bitcoin Cash (24), and Bitcoin (16). In terms of transaction time, XRP completes in just 0.05 minutes, while Ethereum, the lowest among its competitors, takes 2 minutes. Bitcoin takes over an hour, and longer in some cases . Most notably, the chart lists XRP’s cost per transaction as a negligible $0.0004, in stark contrast to Bitcoin’s $28.23 and Ethereum’s $0.96. TechCrunch founder Michael Arrington has highlighted these advantages in the real world, revealing that his company transferred $50 million using XRP . He said it took only 3 seconds to settle, and it cost a few cents. These figures highlight the reality that advocates have long emphasized. XRP is technically positioned to outperform its competitors in key areas necessary for global financial infrastructure. One XRP holder in the community responded to the post, highlighting these advantages as the reason he has stayed invested, and citing the digital asset’s real-world use case and real adoption, especially in Asia . : SBI Group and Yoshitaka Kitao are dropping staggering numbers on the overall speed and cost of using #XRP with Inter ledger It's fast, cheap, and scalable — no wonder Japan is building cross-border remittance on its capabilities. #XRPArmy #Crypto #Blockchain pic.twitter.com/L3knp38u8M — 𝕏aif | (@Xaif_Crypto) June 3, 2025 We are on twitter, follow us to connect with us :- @TimesTabloid1 — TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) July 15, 2023 SBI Group, Ripple, and Japan’s Vision SBI Holdings has been a consistent proponent of XRP and Ripple’s ecosystem. Its chairman, Yoshitaka Kitao, has repeatedly spoken about the potential of XRP to anchor remittance and settlement services not only in Japan but across regional markets. While market sentiment around cryptocurrencies can fluctuate, utility-driven technologies usually have lasting relevance. Japan’s widespread adoption of XRP shows confidence in the digital asset’s underlying infrastructure. As one user aptly commented , “Japan sees the future.
