XRP News Today: XRP Predicted to Surge 333% to $10 by Analysts

Crypto analysts have consistently highlighted the potential for a significant rally in XRP, despite its current price stagnation. This optimism is fueled by the altcoin's performance in the fourth quarter of 2024, which saw it reach a multi-year high of $3.34 in January 2025.

One notable prediction comes from a crypto analyst who anticipates that XRP will not only surge into double digits in the near future but will eventually stabilize at $1,000, making it one of the most valuable digital assets globally.

Crypto market commentator BarriC shared a post on a social media platform outlining a future price trajectory for XRP. BarriC argues that the current price range, which remains below $3, is not indicative of failure but rather an accumulation phase before a substantial breakout. According to the analyst, there is a strong possibility that the XRP price will rise to between $10 and $20 in the coming months. This surge could be driven by increased utility and adoption of XRP by banks or the launch of a Spot XRP ETF.

Following this anticipated surge, BarriC expects a significant market correction, similar to past cycles, which would bring XRP back down to the $5 to $10 range. Previous cycles dating back to 2016 have typically ended with a sharp 50% market dip. If this pattern repeats, the lower boundary for the next cycle could land between $5 and $10. This mid-cycle dip, according to BarriC, will be the last time XRP is considered affordable before it enters a fundamentally different phase.

BarriC’s long-term prediction is based on the mass institutional adoption of XRP by banks. He believes that once XRP becomes deeply integrated into the daily operations of financial institutions, its price will stabilize at $1,000. At this point, the altcoin will no longer experience volatility or bear market phases, as trillions of dollars will consistently flow through the XRP Ledger.

In this scenario, future investors may only be able to afford fractions of one XRP, similar to the current situation with Bitcoin. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.30, down by 2.35% in the past 24 hours, and has been steadily declining from $2.62 over the past seven days.
