Ripple (XRP) and Mutuum Finance (MUTM): 2 Top Cryptos Every Smart Investor Should Have in Their Portfolio, Here’s Why

Source Cryptopolitan

For those who seek a well-diversified portfolio for the year 2026, creating a balance between both old and new cryptocurrencies is the norm. Amongst the old popular cryptocurrencies which have still not managed to live up to their grand promises is Ripple (XRP). On the flip side, amongst new popular cryptos is Mutuum Finance (MUTM). This new crypto has managed to achieve immense popularity by collecting over $19.7 million in its presale.

XRP Price Analysis

XRP is within the re-accumulation stage, thanks to the market rally created by whales and the consistent accumulation within the ETF. It is quite positive that the current price is holding above the essential support levels, which is a strong indicator of a strong market structure. The essential level at $2.20 has been created as a new anchor level. The resistance level at $2.20 presents numerous opportunities for a move to $3.20. XRP is a major market participant. But the growth rate is lower compared to those within the development stage, such as MUTM.

MUTM Presale

Mutuum Finance has already seen the participation of over 18,770 investors and has generated $19.7 million. After considering the diverse costs in phases 7 and 8 of $0.04 and $0.045, it is clear that coupled with public listing at $0.06, it would be very profitable to join in early. According to projections, it is expected that within a couple of months’ time, the price per token of the crypto could be as much as $0.40, thereby rendering a gain of up to 10x for those who join now. Phase 8 would give a marginal gain of 8x, while for those who wait until it is listed in the market for $0.06, a gain of merely 6x is to be achieved.

DeFi Functionality Triggers Demand

Mutuum Finance features a DeFi platform that combines Peer-to-Contract (P2C) and Peer-to-Peer (P2P) lending. P2C lenders deposit assets in lending pools that generate up to 10% APY. A 7000 USDT for example would yield $700 in interest at the end of the year. Peer-to-Peer lending provides higher yields, wherein interest rates can be established by transacting parties on a volatile asset such as Dogecoin. P2P lending may outdo the interest rates for P2C lending to go as high as 20%, thus underpinning its usefulness and intention in the creation of income with volatile cryptocurrencies.

The system developed by MUTM has a reward system for fees generated based on activities performed on the platform, which are used to buy MUTM tokens in the market and share them amongst the stakers of mtTokens. mtTokens are the yield-generating assets which are earned for a deposit made in the MUTM lending system on a 1:1 ratio. For example, for a deposit of 10,000 USDT in the lending market, a user gets 10,000 mtUSDT. Apart from earning from the lending, the user gets staking dividends.

Security and Testnet Achievements

Security is another one of the key considerations for MUTM. It has been able to pass the Halborn Security test, where all feedback has been incorporated for securing the protocol. Functionality wise, the launch of the V1 protocol will be carried out on Sepolia Testnet, where it plans to enable engagement with the liquidity pool, mtTokens, debt tokens for loans, as well as the automatic liquidator for under-collateralized accounts. 

Why MUTM Must Be in Your Smart Portfolio 

Where XRP provides stability, Mutuum Finance provides initial project exposure, presale development, DeFi integration, and several ways to reward token investors. Additionally, its target ROI of 10x for Phase 7 investors makes MUTM one of the best low-cost cryptos available for a well-diversified portfolio.
