The amount of XRP cryptocurrency required to buy an Apple iPhone has seen a major decline from the iPhone 7 to the iPhone 17. In 2016, buyers needed 94,703 XRP to purchase an iPhone 7. As of the launch of the iPhone 17, the price is now 285 XRP. This decrease highlights the changing value of XRP over the years, as reported by XPmarket.
According to the data, the iPhone 7’s XRP price was at its highest, due to XRP trading at lower values at the time. Over the next few models, the required XRP amount dropped: the iPhone 8 required 3,976 XRP, and the iPhone X cost 4,943 XRP. These figures were still high, but they showed an improvement.
The report further details that the iPhone 11 was priced at 2,436 XRP, and the iPhone 12 increased slightly to 3,133 XRP. The iPhone 13 saw a significant drop, costing 791 XRP. Recent models have continued this trend. The iPhone 14 was listed at 1,631 XRP, the iPhone 15 at 1,567 XRP, and the iPhone 16 at 1,427 XRP. The new iPhone 17, at 285 XRP, is the lowest yet.
“This progression demonstrates how the purchasing power of XRP has changed over time,” the source stated. The decrease in the XRP requirement shows the strengthening of XRP’s market value in relation to the stable pricing of Apple devices.
For crypto investors, these numbers show the long-term performance of XRP against a popular consumer product. The overall trend emphasizes a growing strength of digital assets over time, as the iPhone price in XRP continues to fall.
