A popular community figure has pushed back against predictions that XRP will eventually reach an ambitious target of $10,000 to $50,000 per token.
Like many cryptocurrencies, XRP has attracted its share of bold predictions. Over the years, community figures and analysts have projected ambitious price targets for the fourth-largest crypto asset, ranging from $10 to $100.
XRP to Hit $10K to $50K
However, some enthusiasts have gone even further, claiming XRP could soar to between $10,000 and $50,000 per coin. One community member, Mitchell, recently reiterated this extraordinary forecast during a discussion.
XRP Is Not Heading to $10K
However, popular crypto technical analyst ChartNerd outrightly dismissed this prediction as unrealistic. He emphasized that XRP will never reach $10,000 – $50,000, urging Mitchell and other community figures to stop pushing these unrealistic predictions for XRP.

ChartNerd’s argument is based on the market cap reality check. For XRP to reach such an ambitious price target, its total valuation would need to surge dramatically, potentially surpassing the entire global money supply.
For context, at the minimum target of $10,000, XRP would reach a fully diluted valuation of $1 quadrillion, given its total supply of 100 billion tokens. This surpasses the combined global wealth of $471 trillion and the global money supply of $96 trillion.
Therefore, reaching a target of $10,000 or a market cap of $1 quadrillion is simply impossible in economic terms. Moreover, the assertion that XRP must have an extremely high price to facilitate global settlements reflects a misunderstanding of how liquidity and settlement mechanisms function.
XRP does not need to attain such lofty valuations to support large-scale transactions, as the same tokens can be reused repeatedly to enable continuous settlement activity.
According to technical analysis, ChartNerd forecasts that XRP could reach a realistic target of $27, representing a 1,063% rally from its current price of $2.32. This $27 target translates to a fully diluted valuation of $2.7 trillion.
