Stellar's network saw tokenized assets surpass $3 billion and stablecoin transfer volume reach a record $11.4 billion in Q2 2026, signaling strong real-world financial use. Despite XRP's larger market cap and institutional presence, Stellar's smaller capitalization means moderate inflows could drive higher percentage gains for XLM. The growth is supported by Stellar's smart-contract platform Soroban and expanding institutional interest in tokenized financial markets. Analysts suggest XLM could outperform XRP between October 2026 and April 2027, though this is speculative and depends on demand flowing to XLM itself.
On Pluang, XLM trades at Rp3.867 with a 1-day decline of 3.16%, while XRP is priced at Rp26.960, down 0.96% as of Oct 06, 2026 18:03 WIB. XLM's market cap is Rp135,1T compared to XRP's Rp1.699,39T, with XLM seeing more sell activity at 72% versus XRP's 46%.
