XLM needs 10-fold rise to match XRP market cap, DTCC optimism in focus
Stellar’s XLM has climbed sharply, but an analysis said it would need to rise about 10-fold from current levels to match XRP’s market capitalisation. Chad Steingraber, described as an XRP community figure, put the level at about $2.50. Markets are reflecting expectations of cooperation between the Stellar network and DTCC, but he said the move is driven more by investor sentiment than rising usage. Adoption and commercialisation timelines remain uncertain.

Ripple has integrated XRP and RLUSD directly into its corporate treasury management system, raising the prospect of changes in corporate cash management and payroll. XRP community figure Chad Steingraber said crypto-based real-time payments could allow employees to be paid daily, hourly or even by the minute, with income tracked in real time on a blockchain. The integration aims to cut inefficiencies, unify fiat and digital asset balances, and support cross-border transfers, though broader payroll change would require further work.

The article says the listing points to SWIFT messaging connectivity rather than direct protocol-level integration between SWIFT and the XRP Ledger.
