EPIC FAIL: $200M LOST! XRP Crumbles, Is Institutional Crypto DEAD?
Did you know one institutional giant is currently staring down an astonishing $200 million in unrealized losses? Evernorth, the largest institutional holder of XRP, had ambitiously acquired over 84 million tokens at an average price of $2.54 in late 2025, swelling its total holdings to more than 473 million. This bold strategy was driven by the firm's conviction in XRP as the "most important asset of the internet" and its mission to build a massive, compounding treasury. However, the cryptocurrency market took a dramatic turn, causing XRP's value to plummet by roughly 25% since Evernorth's initial announcement. The altcoin now trades significantly below its year-start levels, threatening to end its impressive two-year streak of positive annual returns. Data from CryptoQuant starkly illustrates Evernorth's financial pain, reflecting broader market weakness where nearly half of XRP's circulating supply is held at a loss. This isn't an isolated incident, as other major players like BitMine and Metaplanet are also grappling with multi-billion dollar losses on their Ethereum and Bitcoin holdings. The current market cycle vividly underscores the immense volatility and significant risks institutional investors face in the digital asset space. Despite these substantial drawdowns, some firms continue to accumulate, signaling a long-term belief amidst short-term turmoil.
