XRP News Today: XRP Price Could Hit $212 If 10% of 2017 Bull Run Repeats

Recent analysis has explored hypothetical price movements for XRP by revisiting the scale of its 2017–2018 bull market, a period in which the token surged from approximately $0.005 to a peak near $3.31, representing a cumulative increase of around 66,100%. Under a scenario where XRP replicates just 10% of that performance in today’s market conditions, the token could reach a price of about $212 [1]. This calculation assumes a proportional increase from current price levels, without accounting for changes in circulating supply, liquidity, or regulatory factors that may influence actual outcomes.

An alternative variation of this model suggests a starting point of $0.50 in November 2024, a price some analysts have linked to the early stages of a 2017-style fractal. If that benchmark holds, a 10% replay of the historical rally would project a price of approximately $33.55 [1]. While lower than the $212 estimate, this price still reflects a substantial increase from current levels and could signal the beginning of a broader bullish phase for XRP.

Analysts have noted that the current price structure bears similarities to the 2017 cycle, particularly in terms of wave patterns and market behavior. Chart technicians and Elliott wave analysts, including Charting Guy and EGRAG, have highlighted these parallels, suggesting that XRP may be entering a phase that mirrors its earlier growth dynamics [1]. However, they caution that while such patterns can be informative, they are not deterministic. Market conditions, regulatory clarity, and institutional adoption are key variables that could either support or hinder XRP’s potential to achieve multi-digit price levels.

The projected $212 price point would carry significant implications for XRP’s market capitalization. Analysts estimate that at this level, XRP’s market value could approach $12.57 trillion, depending on the exact circulating supply used in the calculation [1]. Such a valuation would place XRP among the most valuable assets globally and would require a dramatic increase in liquidity and adoption compared to current levels. Achieving this outcome would depend on large-scale capital inflows, favorable regulatory developments, and sustained institutional participation.

In contrast, other analysts have proposed more conservative targets for XRP, with one projecting a price of around $34 based on the token’s current market capitalization of $190 billion and its relatively low total value locked (TVL) of $85 million [2]. This view suggests that XRP has potential for growth, but within more realistic parameters that account for its current adoption levels.

Looking at broader market trends, XRP has already demonstrated significant momentum in 2025, with a reported increase in value of more than 40% year-to-date [4]. This performance has led some to speculate that the token could potentially double in value before the year’s end [5]. Another perspective suggests that if XRP were to capture just 10% of the $27 trillion locked in traditional banking systems—such as nostro and vostro accounts—its price could exceed $45 [8]. While these figures are speculative, they highlight the potential for XRP to disrupt traditional financial infrastructure.

It is important to emphasize that these price projections are hypothetical and should not be interpreted as guarantees. The cryptocurrency market is inherently volatile, and actual outcomes can be influenced by a variety of factors, including macroeconomic conditions, regulatory developments, and investor sentiment. As such, investors are encouraged to approach such forecasts with a critical mindset and to conduct independent research before making any investment decisions.
