Tether vs XRP: what the numbers say
At the latest snapshot, 1 USDT = 0.941558 XRP.
By market capitalisation, Tether is the larger network — about 2.8× 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, USDT is up 1.56% while XRP is down 4.36% — Tether has out-performed by 5.92 percentage points. Short-term percentage moves show momentum but say nothing about long-term value.
Australian buyers can trade both Tether and XRP on AUSTRAC-registered exchanges such as CoinSpot, Independent Reserve, Swyftx and Kraken AU. Each disposal — including swapping USDT for XRP — is a CGT event under ATO guidance, so keep records of the AUD value at the time of every trade.
