That’s simply not going to happen, and even Ripple executives know that. A more realistic assumption is that XRP pushes past the $10 mark within the next few years, consolidates in value, and then makes the next move upward to $20.
That being said, XRP has the potential to become the backbone of a new global blockchain-based payment network. If emerging trends such as asset tokenization take off as planned, then XRP’s value should soar over the next decade, eventually surpassing the combined current value of Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Many puzzle pieces must fall in the right spots to reach that goal, but it’s entirely possible.
