Bitcoin vs XRP: what the numbers say
At the latest snapshot, 1 BTC = 56,526.451613 XRP.
By market capitalisation, Bitcoin is the larger network — about 18.2× the size of XRP in AUD terms. Larger caps generally mean deeper liquidity on Australian exchanges and tighter spreads, while smaller caps can move more sharply on news or thin order books.
Over the past seven days, BTC is down 4.59% while XRP is down 4.28% — the two are moving in lockstep. Short-term percentage moves show momentum but say nothing about long-term value.
Australian buyers can trade both Bitcoin and XRP on AUSTRAC-registered exchanges such as CoinSpot, Independent Reserve, Swyftx and Kraken AU. Each disposal — including swapping BTC for XRP — is a CGT event under ATO guidance, so keep records of the AUD value at the time of every trade.
