Evernorth CEO States Why XRP Price Is Dislodged from Adoption Metrics
XRP activity has been rising sharply, approaching 3 million transactions per day at the end of last week, up from around 1 million in mid-2025. The increase in network usage shows strong engagement from individual users, though institutional adoption is still developing.
Asheesh Birla, CEO of Evernorth, addressed this dynamic in a recent post, offering insight into why XRP’s price has not matched these adoption metrics and how its utility may expand over time.
A commentary I’ve heard within the XRP community this month is some version of “why is XRP price dislodged from adoption metrics?”
Here’s my quick take: XRP is not yet a liquidity bridge at scale. The version of XRP that we believe could drive sustained utility demand is when… https://t.co/FXzJLN1pHL— Asheesh Birla | CEO at Evernorth (@ashgoblue) March 20, 2026
Institutional Use as the Next Phase
Birla acknowledged growth in daily transactions but emphasized that XRP is not yet serving as a large-scale liquidity bridge. He explained that the version of XRP that will drive sustained utility demand emerges when banks and businesses leverage the asset as working capital.
Evernorth focuses on this phase of adoption. The company targets institutional investors, offering a regulated and simplified way to access XRP. By packaging XRP in a publicly tradable structure, Evernorth reduces the complexity that typically accompanies direct token ownership.
This approach enables banks, corporations, and other professional investors to participate in XRP markets efficiently while benefiting from the company’s active management of holdings.
Simplifying Access to XRP
Evernorth’s structure allows investors to gain exposure without handling wallets, private keys, or compliance issues directly. The company manages liquidity, engages with institutional counterparties, and operates within regulated frameworks to support scalable XRP adoption, making it a Wall Street-ready asset.
Birla highlighted the distinction between general network activity and institutional demand. He wrote, “We see signals that institutional use is growing. Just not as fast as the traffic from everyday people.” Evernorth’s strategy positions XRP to capture this next wave of institutional investment.
By providing this infrastructure, Evernorth reduces barriers to entry for larger players. Institutional participation can contribute to more consistent demand. This supports XRP’s role as a reliable medium for cross-border transactions and capital management.

Long-Term Growth for XRP
The combination of rising individual transactions and expanding institutional use positions XRP for continued growth. Increased adoption among banks and businesses can enhance the asset’s utility and demonstrate its effectiveness as a working capital tool. Evernorth’s model helps bridge the gap between retail activity and institutional deployment, creating pathways for sustainable demand.
Birla highlighted that Evernorth prioritizes meaningful data over short-term price fluctuations. The company monitors network activity, adoption trends, and liquidity flows to guide strategies that support XRP’s long-term utility and growth. As institutions begin integrating XRP into working capital processes, the asset will benefit from deeper liquidity and broader professional engagement.
