Bybit Report Reveals Bitcoin Dominates One-Third of Crypto Portfolios as XRP Emerges as Third-Largest Asset
BTC and ETH remained the "power couple" that dominated 58.8% of the total non-stablecoin investment in May, while XPR overtook SOL in third place. ETH's recovery story also stands out, with the asset rebounding from a low of 3.89% holdings in April 2025 to show substantial improvement by May, though it has not yet returned to its November 2024 peak of 11.12%.
Key Findings:
One-in-three crypto assets are now in BTC: As of May 2025, BTC accounts for 30.95% of total investor holdings, representing approximately one out of every three coins in portfolios — a notable increase from 25.4% in November 2024. The current ETH/BTC holding ratio stands at 0.27, meaning investors typically hold $4 in BTC for every $1 in ETH.
XRP rode on its ETF momentum: XRP has overtaken SOL to claim the third-largest position among non-stablecoin cryptocurrencies, with holdings doubling from 1.29% to 2.42% by May 2025. This surge is largely attributed to growing institutional and retail optimism surrounding potential SEC approval of XRP Spot ETFs.
Solana bulls in deep slumber: In contrast, despite its previous bullish momentum in Q3 2024, Solana holdings declined 35% from 2.72% in November 2024 to 1.76% in May 2025, reflecting a shift in investor sentiment and capital allocation.

Bybit Rising Fund: A Global Initiative to Transform Crypto Education From the Ground Up
DUBAI, UAE, Aug. 11, 2025 /CNW/ -- Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, is excited to announced the launch of the Bybit Rising Fund, a groundbreaking corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative focused on education through impact. Spanning 15+ geographies across four continents—from Bolivia and South Africa to the Nordic capitals—the fund represents a paradigm shift from traditional one-off charitable donations to sustainable, mutually beneficial, and education-first partnerships that serve communities long-term. Rewriting the Standard for Crypto CSR The Rising Fund debuts as part of Bybit's World Series of Trading (WSOT) 2025, operating under the transformative theme "Rewrite & Reshape." This year's competition goes beyond trading excellence to create real-world impact by allocating a portion of the prize pool to localized education initiatives, demystifying abstract blockchain concepts and utilities for the academia, researchers, developers, creators, and students alike. Contribution to philanthropic and educational causes has been an integral part of WSOT, the longest-running crypto trading competition of its kind and Bybit's flagship event that excites millions of traders each year. For the first time in WSOT's history, Bybit will decentralize control of the CSR prize pool, giving each region—from Latin America and Southeast Asia to MENA and Europe—the opportunity to directly fund and co-create educational programs, scholarships, and hackathons with local institutions. The approach strengthens project ownership and decentralizes creative power to the builders. Together, local taskforces will shape the blockchain-enabled future best suited for their realities and real-world needs. Reshaping Access to the Industry The Rising Fund addresses critical barriers to entry in the blockchain and cryptocurrency space through: Blockchain and crypto bootcamps designed for entry-level participants Beginner-focused educational courses that make complex concepts accessible Stronger scholarship-backed educational support for underserved communities Collaborative hackathons that unite core crypto players and foster innovation "The Rising Fund represents our commitment to amplifying WSOT's legacy through real-world educational support beyond just goodwill gestures," said Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO at Bybit. "Through strategic partnerships, Bybit creates lasting value, positioning crypto as a force for real-world utility and social mobility." Restrictions and user requirements apply. For the full sets of rules and terms and conditions, users will find out more about the initiative on WSOT 2025's official page, or learn more about the competition here. #Bybit / #TheCryptoArk About Bybit Bybit is the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, serving a global community of over 70 million users.
