Key Insights for 2028
Market Maturity: By 2028, the network's ability to maintain its competitive edge in stablecoin processing will be the primary driver of its valuation.
Vesting Schedule: Approximately 100% of the Ecosystem and Growth allocation (32% of total supply) is expected to be fully unlocked by the end of 2028, which may influence market liquidity and supply pressure.
Network Utility: XPL functions as the core asset for network security via staking, governance, and gas for complex smart contract transactions.
